1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember information about your visit — such as your login session or preferences — so you don't have to re-enter them each time.
Mythea Ltd uses cookies across mythea.com and all its subdomains, including classic.mythea.com, mobile.mythea.com, and arena.mythea.com. Your consent preference is stored once in a cookie set on .mythea.com and shared across all of them automatically.

4. Performance Cookies
We optionally use Firebase Performance Monitoring to track page load times and identify reliability issues. This data is aggregated and not linked to individual users. These are only active if you consent.
Firebase Performance Monitoring operates via the Firebase JavaScript SDK and does not set its own named browser cookies. It shares infrastructure with Google and may use Google network cookies where applicable. No additional first-party performance cookies are set beyond those listed in the Essential section above.
5. Third-Party Integrations
Certain areas of Mythea load third-party content that may set their own cookies:
- ✦ Stripe — Used for in-game payment processing. Stripe may set cookies (__stripe_mid, __stripe_sid) during the checkout flow for fraud prevention and session continuity. See Stripe's privacy policy for details.
- ✦ Facebook — A Facebook page plugin is embedded in some areas of the game. Facebook may set cookies if you interact with it.
