A quiet approach to cookies
Essential storage supports account security, your privacy choices and round recovery. Google Analytics is optional and loads only after you accept analytics. Advertising remains disabled. You can review the current position in the Cookie Preference Centre.
ej_session — essential
A first-party HttpOnly cookie links your browser to a random server session. It supports sign-in and form security and expires after seven days. It is regenerated when you sign in or out. The cookie uses SameSite=Lax and is Secure when the service runs over HTTPS. Its value contains no email, password or credit balance.
ej_consent — essential preference record
First-party local storage remembers that you reviewed the cookie notice, the policy version and the time of your choice. The preference is reviewed again after six months or a policy-version change. Your record also stores whether you allowed analytics. No analytics request is sent before you consent. Advertising remains off.
_ga and _ga_* — optional Google Analytics
After you accept analytics, first-party cookies distinguish browsers and sessions for public page-view measurement. Their configured lifetime is up to six months. Declining analytics prevents these cookies; withdrawing permission removes them. Your analytics identifier is not linked to your El Jacalito account.
ej_pending_round — essential recovery
Session storage temporarily holds the request ID, game and credit amount of an interrupted round. It allows a retry to receive the original result without charging twice. It is cleared when that round is successfully presented or the browser tab is closed. It contains no password or payment information.
Changes and browser controls
You can revisit your choices at any time from the footer. Your browser can also delete or block site storage. Blocking essential cookies prevents account registration, sign-in and play. If optional services are introduced later, they will remain disabled until the appropriate choice is made and this policy is updated. Contact guestcare@el-jacalito.com with questions.
