Legal basis and consent
Strictly necessary cookies are used on the basis of legitimate interest and to provide the requested service (Art. 6(1)(f) and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). All other cookies — in our case, the language preference cookie (ng_lang) — are used solely on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
How to withdraw your consent
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking “Cookie settings” below (or in the footer of any page), then saving your preferences. You can also delete cookies from your browser settings; non-essential cookies will be removed and the consent banner will reappear on your next visit.
Third parties
To run the site and the games we use: Cloudflare (CDN and attack protection), OVH hosting (Canada — covered by the EU adequacy decision) and IONOS (Germany). We do not use analytics or marketing trackers and we do not sell data to third parties.

Under the GDPR you have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. If you have questions or concerns, you can write to us. You can also contact the Romanian data protection authority — ANSPDCP (www.dataprotection.ro).
