Cookie Policy

Last Updated February 2025

When you visit the Eden Play website, we and our service providers acting on our behalf, automatically collect certain data using tracking technologies called cookies and web beacons to ensure our website operates perfectly. 

We do this by collecting data from users to personalise your visit to our website. Cookies are NOT viruses, trojans, or malware. We cannot access your personal files on your computer or device. We wish to be as transparent as possible for our users, and this notice describes what tracking technologies we use and what we use them for.

What’s a Cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data stored as a text file in your browser or in your browser’s storage on your hard drive. Cookies allow Eden Play to recognise your device as you navigate through our publicly accessible website (the Eden Play Site). We also use them to recognise return visitors to the Eden Play Site, helping make navigation and interaction more efficient, easy, and meaningful.

Cookies do not specifically identify you. Instead, they recognise your web browser. Unless you otherwise identify yourself to Eden Play, we don’t know who you are just because you visited the Eden Play Site.

Eden Play uses both session and persistent cookies. Session cookies disappear from your computer or browser when you close it, while persistent cookies remain for longer – even after you turn off your computer.

You can turn off your web browser’s ability to accept cookies. However, doing so may impact certain features, like personalised settings, on the Eden Play Site.

What’s a Web Beacon?

We use web beacons along with cookies to gather data about the use of the Eden Play Site and interaction with emails from Eden Play. Web beacons are clear electronic images that can recognise certain types of data on your computer, like cookies, when you viewed a particular website tied to the web beacon, and a description of a website tied to the web beacon. For example, we may put web beacons in marketing emails that notify us when you click on a link in the email that directs you to the Eden Play Site or one of its pages. We use web beacons to operate and improve the Eden Play Site and email communications.

What We Do With IP Addresses

When you visit the Eden Play Site or use our products and services, like our APIs, we collect your IP addresses to track and analyse information about the devices that are connecting to our systems and about where those devices are located. For example, we use IP addresses to track which regions visitors to our Eden Play Site.

How We Treat Do Not Track Signals

Various browsers allow a “do not track” (DNT) setting that relies on a technology known as a DNT header, which sends a signal to websites visited by the individual about the individual’s browser DNT setting. At this time, there is no general agreement on how companies like Eden Play should interpret Do Not Track signals. Therefore, Eden Play does not currently commit to respond to DNT signals, whether that signal is received on a computer or on a mobile device. Eden Play does, however, provide meaningful choices to you about the information that is collected through cookies and web beacons through the various opt-out options set forth above. We will continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology and the implementation of a standard.
