Cookie Policy
chicken-road-iphone.com is an independent information site about the Chicken Road crash game on iPhone. We do not operate a casino, we do not accept deposits and we do not take bets. This Cookie Policy explains which cookies and similar technologies our pages use, why we use them, how long they last and how you can control them on an iPhone, an iPad or a desktop browser.
This policy covers only the pages published on chicken-road-iphone.com. Sites you reach by following a link from our pages run their own cookies under their own policies, and we have no control over them.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store on your device. When you come back, the browser sends that file back, so the site can recognise the device and remember a few settings. Similar technologies such as local storage and pixel tags work in much the same way, and we treat them under this policy as cookies.
Cookies used on this site do not contain your name, your postal address or any payment details. We have no account system, no login and no deposit form, so there is nothing of that kind for a cookie to hold.
Why we use cookies
- To keep the site working — page navigation, layout and basic security checks.
- To remember simple preferences, such as a closed notice or a chosen view, so you are not asked again on every page.
- To measure, in aggregate, which reviews and guides people actually read, so we know what to update.
- To count outbound clicks on links to third-party sites, which is how independent content projects like ours are funded.
We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles about individual visitors, and we do not sell data collected through cookies.
Types of cookies we use
| Category | What it does | Can it be switched off? | Typical lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Delivers the pages, balances traffic and protects the site from abusive requests | No — the site cannot be served without it | Session, up to a few hours |
| Preference | Remembers small choices such as a dismissed banner or your cookie consent answer | Yes | Up to 12 months |
| Analytics | Counts visits, entry pages and reading depth in aggregated form | Yes | Up to 24 months |
| Referral and campaign | Records that a visit or an outbound click came from a particular page or campaign | Yes | Up to 90 days |
Blocking preference, analytics or referral cookies does not lock you out of anything on this site: every review, guide and FAQ stays fully readable.
Third-party cookies
Some cookies are set by services we rely on rather than by us directly:
- Analytics providers — aggregated traffic and audience reports.
- Affiliate and tracking platforms — attribute an outbound click to this site.
- Operator and game sites you open from our links — everything that happens after you leave chicken-road-iphone.com is governed by that site's own cookie and privacy policy, not by ours.
We recommend reading the cookie policy of any gambling site before you register or deposit there.
How long cookies are stored
Session cookies disappear as soon as you close the browser or the home screen web app. Persistent cookies stay until they expire on the dates shown in the table above, or until you delete them yourself. Deleting cookies in your browser removes them immediately, whatever expiry date they carried.
Managing cookies in Safari on iPhone and iPad
Because most of our readers arrive from an iPhone, here is the iOS route in full:
- Block cookies: Settings → Apps → Safari → Advanced → Block All Cookies.
- Limit cross-site tracking: Settings → Apps → Safari → Prevent Cross-Site Tracking (on by default in recent iOS versions).
- Clear what is already stored: Settings → Apps → Safari → Clear History and Website Data.
- Remove data for one site only: Settings → Apps → Safari → Advanced → Website Data, then swipe the entry for this domain.
- Browse without keeping anything: open a Private tab from the tab overview in Safari.
Menu names differ slightly between iOS versions; on older releases Safari sits directly in the main Settings list instead of under Apps. If you added our pages to the home screen as a web app, it uses the same Safari storage, so the steps above apply to it too.
Managing cookies in other browsers
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies.
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions.
- Safari on macOS: Safari → Settings → Privacy.
Consent and withdrawing it
Where the law requires it, non-essential cookies are only set after you agree to them. You can change your mind at any time by clearing the cookies for this domain and answering the notice differently, or by blocking cookies in the browser settings listed above. Withdrawing consent does not affect anything that was already collected while consent was in place.
Changes to this policy
We update this page whenever the tools behind the site change. The current version is always the one published here, and continuing to use chicken-road-iphone.com after an update means you accept the revised policy.
Age restriction
This site is intended for adults aged 18 or over. Gambling involves risk. Play responsibly, only with money you can afford to lose, and check the law in your own jurisdiction before you play.
