What this build actually uses
A notice, not a tracker preference centre
No analytics or marketing trackers are installed. The static guest shell and temporary game bundles may use browser storage without an auth cookie. Archived experiments are not offered for active play. The optional localhost test-account server adds the session cookie described below. The site does use browser session storage and local game storage. Cookie choices acknowledges that notice; it does not turn game saves on or off or provide blanket consent.
This page covers the current development build. Production storage purposes, applicable consent/exception requirements and hosting behavior must be reviewed before release. A locally stored value is not automatically exempt from storage rules just because it is not a cookie.
Cookies and browser storage are different
| Technology | How it works | In this build |
|---|---|---|
| Cookies | Browser records that can be sent with matching HTTP requests. They may have a session or longer lifetime. | The optional local account server uses __Host-pd-staging. The static guest server does not set it. |
| sessionStorage | A record for the page session, separated by origin and tab. Survives reloads; session restoration can preserve it. Not automatically sent with HTTP requests. | Age confirmation and notice acknowledgement. |
| localStorage | Browser records shared by this origin across tabs and visits. No expiry unless the application or browser removes them. Not automatically sent with HTTP requests. | Game-local virtual coins, selected amounts and counters. |
The audited games are local same-origin frames, not remote provider embeds. No third-party storage or outside runtime calls were observed. Alladin Slot, Coral Postcards and Bloody Pirates keep reel movement only in memory; no game-save storage was observed. Followed external information links are separate sites.
The storage inventory
These are the actual keys in the current implementation. Some game records are created only after an action or a completed round.
| Key | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
pd-age-confirmed |
Value “18” after adult self-confirmation. No birth date or identity check. | Page session; survives reload. Browser restore behavior can vary. |
pd-cookie-notice |
Value “seen” after acknowledging the storage notice. No tracker preference. | Page session, with the same restoration caveat. |
| Key | Game and purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
grh_coins |
Shared virtual coin balance for Lantern Trio, Parlour Twenty-One and Reward Wheel. | No programmed expiry. |
grh_slot_betgrh_slot_stats
|
Lantern Trio's selected virtual coin amount and aggregate round counters. | No programmed expiry. |
grh_bj_betgrh_bj_stats
|
Parlour Twenty-One's selected virtual coin amount and aggregate hand counters. | No programmed expiry. |
grh_wheel_betgrh_wheel_statsgrh_wheel_multgrh_wheel_daily
|
Reward Wheel amount, aggregate counters, multiplier and last free-spin timestamp. The timestamp determines whether a spin costs virtual coins; it is not an expiry or reminder. | No programmed expiry. |
gpw_coins |
Shared virtual coin balance for Peak Slots, Peak Blackjack and Peak Dice. | No programmed expiry. |
gpw_stats |
Peak games' aggregate counters. Updates can replace the previous game's stored counters; this is not a complete history. | No programmed expiry. |
Browser clearing, eviction, private-session behavior and later game updates can remove or replace local records. Nothing here is a cloud save, account balance or real-world asset. The full game frame has access to this origin's storage; a separate production isolation review is outstanding.
What Cookie choices does
Cookie choices is available on this page. Every footer links
to Cookies & Storage. Opening it explains the current
storage; acknowledging it writes only
pd-cookie-notice for the current tab session and
dismisses the notice.
There are no analytics or advertising switches because those technologies are not installed. There is no implemented opt-out switch for game-local saves. Acknowledging the notice does not delete game data or change browser storage permissions.
Cookies and similar browser storage need assessment according to their actual purposes. The production consent/exception model has not been approved. See the ICO's storage and access guidance.
Manage or remove browser records
- Close active game tabs. An open game can write new local records after you clear old ones.
- Use your browser's site-data controls. Find the current MelonsPlay origin in browser settings and remove its stored site data. The setting may be called “Cookies and site data” even when the records are Web Storage.
- Reopen the site. Clearing storage can reset virtual coins, counters, selected amounts and age/notice acknowledgement. A genuinely new page session may ask for age confirmation again before play.
Session records can also be inspected or removed through the browser's storage tools. Closing a tab normally ends its session, but restoring it may preserve that data. Browser restrictions or private mode may prevent persistence; supported games use in-memory fallbacks where available.
Clearing local records does not delete your browser history or server logs. Remove search URLs through browser history controls separately. There is no server-side account deletion feature in this build.
Development limits and publication review
The inventory was verified on . Hosting/logging, controller/contact, processing purposes, retention and the applicable storage/consent rules remain publication blockers. Adding accounts, trackers, external embeds or new game storage requires a new audit and updated information.
This is not a legally approved policy or a claim of production compliance. Privacy Policy explains the confirmed behavior and outstanding information.
Neon Orchard game storage
Neon Orchard uses pd.neon-orchard.v1 in
localStorage on the guest game origin to keep its virtual
credits, selected bet, and last settled grid, bet and award.
It is separate from every other game balance and from your
account. The record has no automatic expiry; clearing this
site’s browser data deletes it. Reload restores the settled
result without charging or awarding it again.
If storage or browser tab coordination is unavailable, the game clearly switches to memory-only play; reload may restore an older readable save or start with 1,000 credits if no save is readable. No analytics, remote provider or external game requests are added. Saving or opening its title through an account uses the existing member records, not credit synchronization.
Coral, Pirates and Roulette storage
Coral Postcards uses pd.aqua-slot.horrell.v2;
Bloody Pirates uses pd.bloody-pirates.horrell.v2;
Velvet Roulette uses pd.velvet-roulette.v1. Each
localStorage record holds its own credits, selected bet or
chip, and last settled result. Roulette also keeps the bets
belonging to that settled result; uncommitted table bets stay
in memory. No prior engine balance is migrated.
Records have no automatic expiry. Clear browser site data to delete them. Reload restores a completed result without a second deduction or return. Storage or tab-coordination failure uses temporary memory play; reload may restore an older readable save or start at 1,000. Nothing is sent to an account, game provider or analytics service.
Archived Alladin Slot and Tidal Tiles are no longer launchable. Existing Saved and Recently opened entries remain with the account; unavailable entries can be removed through their protected account controls.
