Cookie Policy

Last Updated: December 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Broken Pony Studios UG (haftungsbeschränkt) uses cookies to recognize you when you visit our website.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

We believe in a "No Bloat" philosophy. Unlike many modern websites, we do not use invasive tracking pixels, advertising cookies, or third-party data farming scripts.

2. Cookies We Use

We use a minimal set of Strictly Necessary Cookies. These are essential for the website to function properly (e.g., for security or remembering your language). Because these are strictly necessary, they are loaded by default.

.AspNetCore.Antiforgery Security

Purpose: This cookie is vital for the security of our Contact Form. It prevents Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks, ensuring that messages sent to us are actually coming from you and not a malicious script.

Duration: Session

.AspNetCore.Culture Functional

Purpose: Stores your preferred language setting (English or German). This ensures you don't have to switch languages every time you navigate to a new page.

Duration: Persistent

3. Third-Party & Advertising Cookies

We do not currently use third-party advertising cookies, Google Analytics, or Facebook Pixels on this website. Your browsing habits on Broken Pony Studios are private.

4. How can I control cookies?

Since we only use essential cookies required for the site to function securely, there is no "opt-out" toggle on our site (as breaking these cookies would break the site).

However, you can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies entirely. If you choose to reject cookies via your browser, you may still use our website, though some functionality (like the Contact Form) may fail.

5. Updates to this Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons.

If you have questions about our use of cookies, please email us at:
