SHATTER SEA - COOKIE POLICY

Last Updated: August 10, 2026

[Have qualified counsel review this Policy before launch. Replace the remaining text in SQUARE BRACKETS with your company details.]

1. ABOUT THIS COOKIE POLICY

This Cookie Policy explains how [LEGAL COMPANY / DEVELOPER NAME] ("Shatter Sea", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the Shatter Sea website at [WEBSITE URL].

We are based in Florida, United States.

This Policy is based on an audit of the cookies the website actually sets. Our Privacy Policy is available on this website.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files stored on your browser or device when a website is visited. They can be first-party cookies set by us or third-party cookies set by services a website uses.

3. THE SHORT VERSION

The Shatter Sea website uses exactly one cookie: a strictly necessary, first-party session cookie that keeps you signed in and protects your account.

We do not use:

Because only strictly necessary cookies are used, the website does not show a cookie consent banner. If we ever introduce non-essential cookies, this Policy will be updated first and, where required by law, a consent mechanism will be added before any such cookie is set.

4. COOKIE TABLE

Name: PHPSESSID Provider: Shatter Sea (first-party) Purpose: session management - keeps you signed in to your account, carries the security token that protects forms against cross-site request forgery, and holds your sign-in state while you browse Category: strictly necessary Duration: session - deleted when you close your browser.

The session cookie is set with the HttpOnly flag (scripts cannot read it) and the SameSite=Lax attribute (it is not sent on cross-site requests). When the website is served over HTTPS it is additionally marked Secure, so it is never transmitted over an unencrypted connection.

This cookie is set for every visitor because the same session mechanism provides security protection for the sign-in and purchase forms. It contains only a random identifier; account data associated with a session is kept on our servers.

5. PAYMENTS AND THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

When you buy credits, you are redirected to the website of the payment provider you choose (Stripe for card payments, PayPal for PayPal payments). Payment is completed on their websites, which set their own cookies under their own policies:

Stripe Privacy Policy: https://stripe.com/privacy

PayPal Privacy Statement: https://www.paypal.com/legalhub/privacy-full

We do not embed Stripe or PayPal scripts on our own pages, and those providers do not set cookies on the Shatter Sea website itself.

6. COOKIE DURATION

Our only cookie is a session cookie: it expires when you close your browser. We set no persistent cookies.

7. YOUR COOKIE CHOICES

Because the website only sets a strictly necessary cookie, applicable law generally does not require consent for it, and no consent banner is shown.

If non-essential cookies are ever introduced, we will:

8. BROWSER CONTROLS

Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through browser settings. Blocking or deleting our session cookie will sign you out and prevent signing in, purchasing credits and other account features from working, because the same cookie provides their security protection.

9. GLOBAL PRIVACY CONTROL AND OTHER SIGNALS

We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we set no cookies that such opt-out signals govern. Where applicable law requires us to recognize a legally valid opt-out preference signal, such as Global Privacy Control, we will process the signal as required.

10. COOKIE CONSENT OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES

Users in some jurisdictions, including parts of Europe and the United Kingdom, must be given appropriate information and choices before non-essential cookies are used. The Shatter Sea website currently sets no non-essential cookies, so no prior consent interface is required. Strictly necessary cookies of the kind we use are generally exempt from consent requirements.

11. UNITED STATES USERS

Certain U.S. privacy laws provide rights relating to cookies, targeted advertising, and the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not use advertising cookies and do not sell or share personal information collected through cookies. Where those laws apply, we will provide any required notices and mechanisms.

12. FLORIDA

Shatter Sea is based in Florida, United States. We will comply with cookie, privacy and consumer-protection requirements applicable to our operations.

13. CHANGES TO THIS COOKIE POLICY

We may update this Policy when our website, technologies, providers or legal obligations change - for example, if analytics or embedded video is added in the future. The Last Updated date identifies the latest revision.
