This cookie policy explains how VRSmash (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on VRSmash.com (the “Site”).
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, why we use them, and the choices available to you.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function, remember information about your visit, maintain secure sessions, and, in some cases, measure usage and improve performance.
We may also use similar technologies, such as local storage or similar browser-based tools. For convenience, we refer to all of these technologies as “cookies” in this Cookie Policy.
How we use cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are required for the Site to operate properly and to provide services you request. They may be used for functions such as security, authentication, fraud prevention, age-verification, page navigation, and other core site operations. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to provide the service requested by the user, they do not require consent under applicable cookie laws. A cookie is not strictly necessary merely because it is useful, convenient, or beneficial to us; it must be essential from the user’s perspective.
Functional cookies. These cookies are not essential to the basic operation of the Site, but they help remember user interface choices, preserve settings, manage optional popups or timers, and support certain convenience features. Where required by law, these cookies are used only with your consent.
Analytics cookies. These cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site, including which pages are visited, how users move through the Site, and how the Site performs. This information helps us improve the Site and user experience. Where required by law, analytics cookies are used only with your consent.
Advertising or marketing cookies. These cookies are used to measure advertising performance, support ad attribution, or enable marketing-related functions. Where required by law, these cookies are used only with your consent.
