Cookie Policy

The cookies and local storage we use, and how to control them.

This Cookie Policy explains the cookies and similar technologies (such as browser local storage) that MapNinja uses, and how you can control them. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

What these technologies are

Cookies are small files a site can store in your browser. Local storage is a related browser feature that lets a site keep small amounts of data on your device. MapNinja relies mainly on local storage rather than cookies.

What we use today

  • Strictly necessary - theme preference. Remembers your light/dark choice so the site loads without a flash. Stored in local storage on your device.
  • Strictly necessary - progress tracking. Remembers which locations you have marked as found, per map. Stored in local storage on your device; never sent to us unless you sign in to sync.

These are essential to features you actively use and do not track you across other websites.

Analytics & advertising

We do not currently use analytics or advertising cookies. If we introduce them, we will update this policy, list each provider and purpose, and - where required - request your consent before any non-essential cookies are set.

Managing cookies & local storage

  • Use the “Reset progress” control on a map to clear its saved progress.
  • Clear your browser’s cookies and site data to remove everything MapNinja has stored locally.
  • Most browsers let you block or delete cookies and local storage per site in their settings.

Clearing this data will reset your saved preferences and tracked progress on this device.
