4. Your controls
You can delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings. Blocking the PlayFab session cookie means account sign-in, the player dashboard, feedback rewards, mobile playtest registration, and Steam-key claiming will not work. You may reset this website’s cookie notice below.
5. Third-party websites and changes
Links to Steam and other third-party websites do not place their cookies through this website. Those services may use cookies after you visit them under their own policies. If we introduce optional analytics or marketing storage later, we will update this policy and request consent before using it where required.
