Cookies and local storage
Last updated August 10, 2026
TableTalk does not use advertising cookies, and it does not run third-party analytics or tracking. There is no consent banner on this site because there is nothing to consent to - everything below is required to make the thing you asked for work.
What we store in your browser
Most of it is not a cookie at all. It is local storage and session storage, which stay on your device and are never sent to us automatically the way cookies are.
| Name | Kind | Why it exists |
|---|---|---|
| theme | Local storage | Remembers light or dark mode so the site does not flash the wrong theme when you return. |
| locale | Local storage | Remembers whether you chose English or Portuguese, overriding what your browser reports. |
| tabletalk:room-host:* | Local and session storage | Your host key for a room you started, so closing the tab does not lock you out of your own table. |
| tabletalk:play:* | Session storage | Your place in a deck, so a refresh mid-game does not send you back to the first card. Cleared when the tab closes. |
| Sign-in tokens | Local storage | Keeps you signed in if you have an account. Removed when you sign out. |
| remember_me | Local storage | Records whether you asked to stay signed in on this device. |
Cloudflare
The site runs on Cloudflare, and the signup form uses Cloudflare Turnstile to keep bots from creating accounts. Turnstile and Cloudflare's network protection may set their own cookies to tell a real visitor from an automated one. These are security cookies, not advertising ones, and we do not use them to profile you.
What we do not do
- No advertising or retargeting cookies.
- No third-party analytics.
- No cross-site tracking, and no selling of your data.
- Nothing at all is stored about the conversations you have around the table.
Clearing it
You can clear all of it from your browser settings at any time. Doing so signs you out, forgets your theme and language choice, and drops the host key for any room you started. Nothing else is lost - your account and favorites live on our servers, not in your browser.
