Cookie policy
Exactly what Harbour Lamp keeps in your browser, and how to change your choice at any time.
Last updated: 9 October 2026
The essentials
Harbour Lamp sets no advertising cookies and no analytics cookies. At the moment, all we save is a pair of tiny settings in your browser’s local storage, and both exist only so the site behaves as you have asked. Optional storage stays switched off unless you press “Accept all”.
The full list
| Key | Category | What it does | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| hl_age_ok | Local storage, strictly necessary | Records that you passed the age gate as an over-18 | Kept until you wipe the site’s data |
| hl_consent | Local storage, strictly necessary | Records the button you chose on the cookie banner | Kept until you wipe the site’s data or choose again |
Neither key is ever transmitted to us. As both are strictly necessary for something you requested, Irish law (the ePrivacy Regulations 2011, S.I. No. 336 of 2011) allows them without consent.
Consent signals, step by step
The very first thing each page does is set four consent signals (ad storage, ad user data, ad personalisation and analytics storage) to “denied”. They only flip to “granted” when you press “Accept all”. Since no analytics or advertising tags are installed today, accepting turns nothing on right now; it simply notes your preference for the future, and this policy would be updated before any such tag arrived.
Storage set by the games
Each game streams into its frame from the developer’s servers and may save its own data in your browser under the developer’s domain, for instance sound settings or a pretend credit balance. We cannot see or manage that data, but your browser’s site data settings will clear it. Those in-game credits are make-believe and hold no monetary value.
Changing your answer
Bring the banner back whenever you like with the button just below, or through “Cookie settings” at the foot of any page. If you accepted before and now pick “Reject non-essential”, the signals go back to “denied”.
Wiping saved data
All the main browsers include a way to delete what a site has saved, usually under a heading such as “Privacy” or “Site data”. Once that is done, the age gate and the cookie banner will greet you afresh when you next come by.
