Reef Deck/Cookie Policy
LegalCookie Policy
Four storage keys, all of them functional, none of them shared. Here is the complete list.
1. What we actually use
MeadowRidgeWorks relies on your browser's local storage rather than traditional cookies. The effect is similar — a small value saved on your device — but the data never travels with your requests, which means it is not sent to any server, ours included.
2. The complete inventory
| Key | Purpose | Category | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| mrw_age_confirmed | Records that you confirmed being 18 or over, so the gate does not reappear on every page. | Essential | Until site data is cleared |
| mrw_pearls_balance | Holds the current figure in your Glow Pearl vault. | Functional | Until site data is cleared |
| mrw_pearls_claimed | Stores the date of your last free daily allocation so the grant runs once per day. | Functional | Until site data is cleared |
| mrw_cookie_choice | Remembers whether you chose "essential only" or "accept all" so the banner stays closed. | Essential | Until site data is cleared |
That is the entire list. There is no fifth key hidden somewhere, and the inventory is updated whenever the site changes.
3. What we deliberately avoid
- No analytics. There is no page-view counter, heatmap or session recorder.
- No advertising. No pixels, no retargeting, no partner identifiers.
- No social widgets. Nothing embeds a third-party frame that could observe you.
- No cross-site identifiers. Nothing written by MeadowRidgeWorks is readable by any other site.
4. Your choices
The banner on your first visit offers "essential only" and "accept all". Because the reef runs no optional tracking at all, both selections currently produce the same technical result — the choice is recorded so we can honour it should optional storage ever be introduced. If that day comes, this page changes first.
You can also:
- Clear cookies and site data for meadowridgeworks.com to erase every key at once.
- Use a private window so nothing persists after you close it.
- Block storage for this site entirely — the reef still loads, but the age gate reappears and your vault resets on each visit.
5. External requests
Headline typefaces are fetched from a public font service. That request does not set a cookie on our behalf, but it does reach an external server, as noted in our Privacy Policy. Everything else — styles, scripts, artwork and the game engine — is served from meadowridgeworks.com itself.
6. Changes
Any new storage key is added to the table above before it goes live, and the date at the top of this page is revised. Questions can go to privacy@meadowridgeworks.com.
