This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies are, how they may relate to ClassroomGames.org, and how visitors can control browser storage. Read it together with our Privacy Policy and Children’s Privacy.
What cookies are
A cookie is a small item of data stored by a browser at the request of a website or a third-party service. Cookies can help remember a login session, recognize a browser, support a security feature, or provide analytics and advertising functions.
Other technologies, such as local storage, session storage, device identifiers, and embedded scripts, can also store or access information. Rules may cover these technologies even when they are not technically cookies.
Technical and essential cookies
WordPress and hosting infrastructure may use cookies or similar mechanisms for administrator logins, security checks, traffic management, or website operation. Caching and optimization technology may also test browser capabilities or manage how content is delivered.
These functions do not necessarily mean that a child has an account or that data is used for advertising. The exact cookie names, lifetimes, and providers depend on the active WordPress settings and hosting configuration. Visitors can usually use the public learning games without logging in.
Game input versus browser storage
The interactive games are designed to use names, word lists, quiz questions, scores, or selections within the browser page. For example, a Bingo Generator may create a printable board from words that a teacher types.
Do not assume that a game field is the same as a cookie or server database. Reloading a page may clear game state, while browser and hosting systems can still handle separate technical information. Avoid entering real student identifiers if a simple team label works.
Analytics and performance measurement
Analytics, if enabled, may use cookies or other identifiers to help website operators understand visits, errors, or page performance. These systems can process technical data such as pages viewed, referral information, approximate location, and device characteristics.
We are not listing a specific analytics cookie as active without verifying that it is deployed. If tracking features are installed later, the provider, purpose, and applicable choices should be reflected in the privacy and cookie disclosures.
Advertising cookies and third parties
Advertising providers can use cookies or other identifiers to measure ads or personalize content. On services accessed by children, certain advertising methods may be restricted and require additional child-directed treatment and privacy safeguards.
If the site begins using advertising services such as Google ads, applicable publisher disclosures and consent controls must be implemented rather than assuming this page alone authorizes advertising cookies. You can review Google’s publisher privacy guidance and our Children’s Privacy page.
Consent and how to change settings
In regions that require consent for nonessential cookies or similar technologies, website operators must provide appropriate choices before setting those technologies. Simply visiting the site, scrolling, or reading this policy may not amount to valid consent under applicable rules.
You can also review browser settings to block or delete cookies, clear site data, or restrict third-party storage. Disabling certain cookies may affect logins or other features. If a consent banner becomes available, use its controls to record or change your choices.
How to inspect cookies on your device
- In a desktop browser, open settings or developer tools and look for the section covering cookies and site data.
- Review the current site’s stored items and note the domain. A third-party domain may belong to an embedded or optional service rather than Classroom Games itself.
- Clear only the items you intend to remove. This can sign you out of services and reset preferences.
- For privacy concerns, email contact@classroomgames.org with the cookie name and relevant page, without sharing passwords or confidential information.
Updates and contact
Our plugins, caching systems, optional services, and legal duties may change. We may update this policy and the related privacy notices when those practices change. The revision date at the top indicates when this explanation was last updated.
For a cookie or tracking question, email contact@classroomgames.org. You can also read the FAQ for help using a classroom activity without creating an account.
