Cookies

Last updated 26 October 2026

In short

We use one essential cookie to keep you signed in and a few small settings in your browser. No advertising cookies and no analytics cookies. Page visits are recorded on our own server, not with a cookie. See the Privacy policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small files a website stores in your browser. Websites can also keep small settings in your browser’s storage. We use both only where they are needed for the world to work.

Cookies we use

NameWhyHow long
ivwKeeps you signed in. Essential.12 hours, or 30 days if you choose “remember me”
ivwgOnly for a visit with no account (the Free demo, or an open quiz game): holds the username you typed and a random visit number, so the world knows you. Essential for the visit. Nothing else about the visit is kept.4 hours, or until you press Exit
ivw_nextRemembers a game code you followed before signing in, so we can take you there. Essential.Removed as soon as you sign in

Settings kept in your browser

NameWhy
ivw-cookieRemembers that you have seen the cookie notice dated 16 October 2026. It is a setting in the browser, not a cookie, and it is not used to track you.
ivw-account-lookKeeps a copy of your avatar so the world can show it quickly.
v5-name, v5-look, v5-map, v5-speed, v5-about-seenGame settings, such as your walking speed and whether you have seen the welcome.
ivw-guestUsed only when the world is previewed without an account. Cleared when you close the tab.

Other websites

Some of the code the world runs on is delivered by jsDelivr, which does not set cookies. Films from YouTube use YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode and only load when you press Play. Once a film plays, YouTube may store information in your browser under Google’s own privacy policy.

We do not offer Google sign-in or any other social sign-in. Loading that would set extra cookies and send a name and email to another company. Our GDPR policy explains why, especially for children.

Your choices

All the cookies and settings above are strictly necessary for the world to work, so the law does not require us to ask for consent, but we always tell you about them. The notice is an explanation, not a choice we do not really offer. You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block the ivw cookie you will not be able to sign in. The full rules are in our GDPR policy.

If we ever want to use any other cookies, such as for analytics, we will ask you first and you will be free to say no. The visit log described in the Privacy policy is a record on our server. It does not set a cookie.
