Cookie Policy & Local Storage Specification
Effective Date: August 11, 2026 • Version 2.0 (ePrivacy Directive Compliant)
This Cookie Policy explains how GameWaypoints (operated by Thor Media Danmark ApS) uses cookies, browser localStorage, and related web telemetry technologies when you navigate gamewaypoints.com.
1. Understanding Cookies & Web Storage
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by your web browser. Local storage (`localStorage`) is a modern web standard allowing persistent key-value data storage within your browser. These technologies enable our platform to remember your pitch simulator settings, preserve cookie consent preferences, and maintain responsive navigation state.
2. Detailed Specification Of Storage Categories
We classify technical storage into three distinct operational categories:
| Category | Key / Name | Type & Expiry | Purpose Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential Technical | session_nav_state |
HTTP Session | Maintains active mobile overlay menu state and scroll position across page views. |
| Preference Storage | gamewaypoints_cookie_consent |
localStorage (12 Months) | Stores your cookie consent preferences so the consent banner is not repeatedly shown. |
| Functional Simulator | draft_lineup_state |
localStorage (Persistent) | Saves your chosen squad formation (e.g. 4-3-3) and drafted player cards within the pitch simulator. |
| Performance Telemetry | _gw_analytics_id |
First-Party Cookie (30 Days) | Collects aggregated, non-identifying telemetry regarding page load times and tournament leaderboard interactions. |
3. Third-Party Content & Script Dependencies
Certain interactive elements on GameWaypoints rely on verified third-party web libraries which may deploy functional cookies or temporary storage:
- Leaflet.js & CARTO Dark Tiles: Used on our Contact Us page to render our Copenhagen headquarters interactive map.
- Google Fonts API: Used to load high-performance modern typography (`Outfit` and `Plus Jakarta Sans`).
4. Managing & Disabling Cookies In Web Browsers
You have full control over cookie storage. Most web browsers allow you to modify cookie settings, block third-party cookies, or clear local storage. Below are official instructions for popular browsers:
Google Chrome: Navigate to Settings > Privacy and Security > Third-party cookies.
Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data.
Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences > Privacy > Block all cookies.
Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings > Cookies and site permissions.
Note: Disabling essential functional cookies may affect the interactive player drafting features of our pitch simulator.
5. Do Not Track (DNT) Signal Compliance
GameWaypoints respects browser-transmitted "Do Not Track" (DNT) header signals and automatically disables non-essential analytical scripts when DNT is enabled in your browser.

Thor Media Danmark ApS may update this Cookie Policy periodically. Amendments will be posted directly on this page with an updated revision date.
