Cookie Policy
Last updated: August 13, 2026. Understand how cookies and local storage technologies are utilized on LuckyCrush.
1. What Are Cookies & Storage Technologies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your browser or device by web platforms you visit. LuckyCrush also utilizes browser localStorage and sessionStorage APIs to store transient preference tokens necessary for smooth WebRTC session management.
2. How We Use Cookies & Local Storage
We use web storage technologies exclusively for critical technical operations:
- Essential Session Management: Temporary session IDs stored in
sessionStoragemaintain your active WebRTC connection state when matching or switching partners. - User Preference Settings: Saving your language preference, audio/video device input selections, and gender selector state so you don't need to reconfigure them each search.
- Security & Abuse Prevention: Rate-limiting tokens used to detect bot traffic and prevent server denial-of-service attempts.
- Modal Display Frequency: Storing temporary flags (such as
luckycrush_modal_shown) to prevent repetitive popups during your browsing session.
3. Types of Cookies We Utilize
| Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | WebRTC signaling, WebSocket token authentication, load balancing. | Session duration |
| Functional Preference | Remembering translation target language and gender selection. | Up to 30 days |
| Security & Safety | IP rate-limiting and anti-bot verification tokens. | 24 hours |
4. Managing and Disabling Cookies
You can control or block cookies through your browser settings (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge). However, please note that disabling essential session storage or WebRTC socket tokens will prevent the live 1v1 video matching engine from functioning properly.
