Cookie Policy

Effective date: 25 October 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how the SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance Fan Site (“the fan site”, “we”, “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies, which third-party services may use them, and how you can control them. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy.

1. Summary

• The website does not set its own HTTP cookies.
• It stores one item in your browser's local storage, “cookie-ok”, only if you choose Accept on the notice.
• It does not use analytics, advertising, remarketing or social media tracking technologies.
• Pages load a font from Google Fonts, which involves a request to Google's servers.
• If you arrive by clicking one of our advertisements, the advertising service may use its own cookies on its own domains.

2. What cookies and local storage are

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store and send back on later visits. Cookies are commonly used to keep you logged in, remember preferences or measure advertising. Local storage is a similar browser feature that keeps a small value for a specific website on your device. Unlike a cookie, it is not automatically sent to the server with each request. In this policy, “storage” refers to both.

Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by another domain, such as an advertising service, are called third-party cookies.

3. What this website uses

Name	Type	Purpose	Duration
cookie-ok	First-party local storage (strictly necessary)	Remembers that you closed the notice so it does not reappear. Value: “1”.	Until you clear your browser's site data

The “cookie-ok” item is created only when you choose Accept. It contains no personal information, is not linked to you, and is never sent to the fan site. If you do not choose Accept, the website works exactly the same; the notice will simply appear again on later visits.

4. Third-party services

Google Fonts

Each page loads the Open Sans typeface from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). This is a network request rather than a cookie set by the fan site. To deliver the font, your browser sends Google connection data such as your IP address and browser information. Google describes how it handles this data in its privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. The fan site does not receive any information from these requests.

5. Advertising cookies

The website does not display advertisements and does not contain advertising tags, conversion tracking or remarketing code. However, the fan site may promote itself through advertising services such as Google Ads. If you click one of those advertisements, the advertising service may set or read cookies on its own domains, under its own policies, to record the click and measure the advertisement's performance. This happens on the advertising service's systems, not on this website.

You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and manage personalised advertising at adssettings.google.com. Industry opt-out tools such as youronlinechoices.eu are also available.

If we ever add analytics, conversion tracking or any other non-essential technology to these pages, we will update this policy first and, where required by law, ask for your consent before it is used.

6. What this website does not use

• Analytics tools such as Google Analytics.
• Advertising, conversion or remarketing tags.
• Social media pixels, share buttons or embedded feeds.
• Embedded video players.
• Session recording, heatmaps or browser fingerprinting.
• Login, account or shopping cart cookies.

7. How to control cookies and storage

You can control and delete cookies and local storage through your browser settings. Most browsers let you view stored site data, delete it, block third-party cookies and block requests to specific domains. Useful starting points are:

• Chrome: Settings › Privacy and security › Third-party cookies / Site settings.
• Firefox: Settings › Privacy & Security › Cookies and Site Data.
• Safari: Settings › Privacy › Manage Website Data.
• Edge: Settings › Cookies and site permissions › Manage and delete cookies and site data.

Clearing site data for this website removes “cookie-ok”, and the notice will appear again on your next visit. Blocking requests to fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com will prevent the Google Fonts request; the website will remain fully readable in a fallback font.

8. Changes to this policy

We will update this policy if the website's use of cookies or storage changes. The effective date at the top of the page shows the latest version.
