Cookies

This page explains what cookies are and how Places to Play uses them. It complements our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file stored in your browser when you visit a website. Cookies let a site remember your device and preferences between pages and visits. They are not viruses or spyware, and they cannot run programs.

How we use cookies

• Essential cookies — needed for the site to work and stay secure (for example, load-balancing and basic caching). These do not require consent.
• Analytics cookies — help us understand, in aggregate, which pages are useful so we can improve the directory.
• Advertising cookies — set by Google AdSense and its partners to show and measure ads, and to limit how often you see the same ad. These are used on the basis of your consent.

Managing your cookies

You can accept or reject non-essential cookies through the consent options shown on the site, and you can change your choice at any time. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may then work less smoothly. For advertising choices you can visit Google's Ads Settings and the industry pages at youronlinechoices.eu.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties whose services appear on our pages (chiefly Google for advertising and, where used, mapping and analytics). We don't control those cookies; please see the relevant provider's own policy, and Google's partner-sites notice for advertising.
