Cookie Policy

1. Magical Cookies and Web Storage

At Mystic Island Empire, we use cookies and similar local storage technologies to enhance your journey through the floating archipelago. This policy explains how we comply with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and ICO guidance regarding cookie usage.

2. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They allow you to navigate the site, load games like Tidal Relics securely, and maintain your session. Because they are vital to the operation of Mystic Island Empire, they cannot be disabled in our systems.

3. Local Storage for Lumina Crystals

We utilize HTML5 Local Storage to save your Lumina Crystals balance and game progress directly on your device. This ensures you do not lose your virtual currency when you refresh the page. This storage is purely functional and does not track you across the wider internet.

4. Analytics Cookies

With your explicit consent, we may use analytics cookies to understand how players interact with games like Cascade of the Ancients and Volcanic Grids. This data helps us improve site performance and design. All information gathered is aggregated and completely anonymous.

5. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have full control over non-essential cookies. You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings panel located in our site's footer. Additionally, you can configure your web browser to block or delete cookies, though this may cause you to lose your accumulated Lumina Crystals.

6. Consent Mechanism

Upon your first visit to Mystic Island Empire, a banner will appear requesting your consent for non-essential cookies. By choosing to accept or decline, your preference is logged and respected for all future visits in accordance with UK ICO regulations.
