This Cookie Policy explains how StoryFox uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit storyfox.net or use the StoryFox web application. Read this together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser when you visit. They let the site remember things about your visit, such as that you are signed in or which theme you prefer. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage, which work the same way for our purposes.

2. The cookies we use

We use a small number of cookies, all of which are strictly necessary or functional. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

These keep you signed in and protect the site against common attacks. You cannot opt out of them and still use the Service.
