Cookie policy

This is a translation for your convenience: if it differs from the Russian version of this page, the Russian version prevails.

1. What cookies are

  • Cookies are small text files saved on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit websites. They let a site remember your actions and preferences for a certain time.
  • Besides cookies, we also use localStorage, a browser data storage mechanism that does a similar job but keeps information with no expiry date until it is explicitly deleted.
  • This Policy describes which cookies and localStorage data are used on steamgifts.ru, for what purpose, and how you can manage them.

2. Which cookies we use

Strictly necessary (required):

  • refresh_token (cookie) — keeps your signed-in session active. Flags: HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite. Without this cookie you cannot stay signed in to the site.
  • sg_cookie_consent (localStorage) — saves your cookie choice (accepting all or only the necessary ones). Kept indefinitely until explicitly deleted.

Functional:

  • region (cookie) — saves the region you selected so that current prices and available products are shown. Retention period: 30 days.
  • sg_age_verified (cookie) — records that you passed the age check for viewing age-restricted products.
  • sg_dismissed_banners (localStorage) — remembers the information banners you closed so they are not shown again. Period: 24 hours.

Analytics (the mode depends on your choice):

  • Google Analytics — if you choose “Necessary only”, it runs in anonymous mode (Google Consent Mode v2): page visit data is collected without setting cookies and without identifying the user. If you choose “Accept all”, cookies (_ga, _ga_*, _gid) are set for full traffic analysis. The data is processed by Google Inc. More details: Google Privacy Policy.
  • Yandex Metrica — if you choose “Necessary only”, it runs in limited mode: basic visit statistics are collected without click maps or detailed tracking. If you choose “Accept all”, cookies (_ym_uid, _ym_d, _ym_isad and others) are set for full analysis. The data is processed by Yandex LLC. More details: Yandex Privacy Policy.

3. Third-party analytics services

  • The analytics services (Google Analytics and Yandex Metrica) are loaded whatever you choose in the cookie banner. If you chose “Necessary only”, Google Analytics runs in anonymous mode (Consent Mode v2) without setting cookies, and Yandex Metrica runs in limited mode without click maps or detailed tracking. If you click “Accept all”, the analytics services run in full mode and set cookies.
  • The data collected by the analytics services includes: IP address (may be anonymized), browser type and version, operating system, screen resolution, referral source, pages viewed and time on the site.
  • This data is used solely to improve the site and is not shared with third parties beyond the analytics platforms named above.

4. Managing cookies

  • On your first visit to the site you see a banner offering to accept all cookies or choose only the necessary ones. You can change your choice at any time by clicking the “Cookie settings” link in the site footer.
  • You can also manage cookies in your browser settings: block all or some cookies, delete previously saved files, and set exceptions for specific sites.
  • To clear localStorage data, you can use your browser's developer tools (the “Application” or “Storage” section).
  • Please note: disabling strictly necessary cookies may cause the site to work incorrectly, including making it impossible to sign in.

5. Changes to this policy

  • We reserve the right to update this Cookie Policy. If we make significant changes, we will notify you through the cookie banner (your previous choice will be reset).
