What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to website operators about how their site is being used.
Cookies cannot execute programs, carry viruses, or collect personal information beyond what is described in this policy. They are a standard and generally benign element of the modern web experience. This Cookie Policy explains which cookies CanadaFunWorld uses, why we use them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides more detail on how all personal information collected via the Service is handled.
1. Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are set automatically when you visit CanadaFunWorld and are required for the following core functions:
Session Management
When you log in to your account, an encrypted session cookie is created that keeps you logged in as you navigate between pages. Without this cookie, you would be asked to re-enter your credentials on every page. This session cookie expires automatically when you close your browser or after a period of inactivity, whichever comes first.
Cookie name: cfwsession | Duration: Browser session | Purpose: Maintains authenticated login state
Age Verification
Once you have completed the age verification step and confirmed you are 18 or older, a cookie is stored to indicate that the verification has been completed during this session. Without this cookie, you would be presented with the age verification modal on every page visit.
Cookie name: cfw_ageverified | Duration: 30 days | Purpose: Records completed age verification
Cookie Consent
When you interact with our cookie consent banner — whether by accepting or declining non-essential cookies — your choice is stored in a cookie so the banner does not appear on every visit.
Cookie name: cfw_cookieconsent | Duration: 12 months | Purpose: Stores your cookie preference choice
Security
We use a security token cookie to help protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. This is a standard web security measure that helps ensure that form submissions on the platform originate from legitimate users.
Cookie name: cfw_csrf | Duration: Browser session | Purpose: Security protection for form submissions
2. Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with CanadaFunWorld by collecting and reporting information in aggregate form. This information helps us identify which pages and features are most popular, where players encounter difficulties, and how we can improve the overall platform experience.
These cookies collect data on a pseudonymous basis — they do not directly identify you by name or contact information. The data they generate is used for internal analytics purposes only and is never sold to third parties.
Platform Usage Analytics
We use a first-party analytics system to track aggregate usage patterns including pages visited, session duration, game choices, and navigation paths. This data is processed internally and stored on Canadian servers.
Cookie name: cfw_analytics | Duration: 13 months | Purpose: Aggregate platform usage statistics
Performance Monitoring
Performance cookies help us identify when games or pages are loading slowly or generating technical errors. By collecting this data, we can prioritize improvements and resolve issues quickly.
Cookie name: cfw_perf | Duration: 30 days | Purpose: Technical performance monitoring
Analytics cookies are activated only if you accept non-essential cookies via our cookie consent banner. If you decline, these cookies will not be set and we will not collect analytical data tied to your session.
3. Preference Cookies
Preference cookies allow CanadaFunWorld to remember choices you have made and to provide a more personalized experience on subsequent visits. These cookies do not track your activity across third-party websites.
Game Settings
If you adjust in-game settings such as sound preferences, display mode, or spin speed, these preferences are saved in a cookie so they are applied automatically the next time you play that game.
Cookie name: cfw_gameprefs | Duration: 12 months | Purpose: Remembers your in-game settings preferences
Display and Accessibility Preferences
If you adjust platform-level display settings, such as text size or contrast mode, these preferences are stored so you do not have to reapply them each time you visit.
Cookie name: cfw_displayprefs | Duration: 12 months | Purpose: Remembers platform display settings
Language Preferences
When multilingual support is introduced to the platform, your language selection will be remembered via a preference cookie so the correct language is displayed automatically on your return visits.
Cookie name: cfw_lang | Duration: 12 months | Purpose: Remembers language preference
Preference cookies are activated only if you accept non-essential cookies. If you decline, your preferences will not be saved between sessions and you may need to re-apply settings on each visit.
4. How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences
You have several options for managing cookies on CanadaFunWorld and in your browser generally.
Platform Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit CanadaFunWorld, a cookie consent banner will appear at the bottom of your screen. You can click "Accept" to allow all cookies (including analytics and preference cookies) or "Decline" to restrict use to essential cookies only. You can change your preference at any time by clicking the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer of any page.
Browser-Level Cookie Controls
All major web browsers allow you to view, manage, block, and delete cookies through their settings menus. The process varies by browser:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies and other site data
- Mozilla Firefox: Options > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions > Manage and delete cookies
Please note that blocking all cookies via your browser settings will prevent essential cookies from being set and may significantly impair or entirely prevent your ability to use CanadaFunWorld, as essential cookies are required for login and age verification functions.
Opt-Out of Analytics
If you have accepted non-essential cookies but later wish to opt out of analytics data collection specifically, you can decline analytics cookies by updating your preference through the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer or by clearing our cookies through your browser settings and declining at the next banner prompt.
Impact of Declining Cookies
If you decline non-essential cookies, the following will be affected:
- Your in-game settings and display preferences will not be saved between sessions
- Platform analytics will not include your anonymized usage data
- You will not be shown personalized content recommendations
Essential functions — including account login, game access, and age verification — will continue to work normally regardless of your non-essential cookie preference.
5. Third-Party Cookies
CanadaFunWorld does not currently use third-party advertising cookies or tracking pixels from social media platforms. We do not allow third-party ad networks to set cookies on our platform.
If you access CanadaFunWorld via a link from a third-party website, that third party may have set cookies in your browser before you arrived. We are not responsible for the cookie practices of third-party sites. We recommend reviewing the cookie policies of any third-party sites you visit.
6. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our use of cookies evolves or as legal requirements change. When we make material changes, we will update the Effective Date and notify users through the cookie consent banner on the next platform visit. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
7. Questions About Cookies
If you have any questions about our use of cookies or about this Cookie Policy, please contact us through the Help & Support section of our community forum or refer to our Privacy Policy for contact details for our Privacy Officer.
