Cookie Policy for PortalVision

At PortalVision, we prioritize your privacy and aim to provide the most immersive and technologically advanced virtual reality (VR) gaming experience. This includes being transparent about the technologies we use to enhance user interaction. This Cookie Policy explains how and why we use cookies and similar technologies on our website, what kind of data they collect, how we process it, and how you can manage or disable cookies at any time.

By continuing to use our website or digital services, you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this policy, unless you choose to disable them via your browser or device settings.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, VR headset with browser, tablet) when you visit a website. These files store certain pieces of information that allow websites and applications to recognize returning users, remember settings, and analyze browsing behavior.

Cookies enhance website performance and personalize content. Depending on their purpose, cookies can be divided into several categories:

Why We Use Cookies

In the context of virtual reality gaming, where fluid navigation, real-time data, and interactive personalization are essential, cookies serve several vital functions:

1. Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies

These cookies are crucial for the basic operation of our platform. They support features like user login, secure access to personal dashboards, saving VR gameplay history, and enabling secure transactions. Without them, parts of our website or in-app systems would not work properly — for example, loading saved VR game preferences or tracking session continuity within an account.

2. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us collect information on how users interact with our website or content. They track metrics such as the number of visits, pages viewed, session duration, user flow, and any technical issues encountered (such as errors or lag spikes). This data allows us to optimize platform performance, adjust navigation paths, and improve game discoverability based on what users engage with most.

3. Functionality Cookies

Functionality cookies remember user preferences and choices. For example, they may store your favorite VR genres (e.g., horror, simulation, sci-fi), selected language, interface preferences, or visual settings like light or dark modes. These cookies also help maintain consistency when switching between desktop and VR headset browsing environments.

4. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising cookies allow us to show you relevant promotional content based on your browsing behavior and preferences. If you frequently explore first-person VR shooters, you may see ads for similar games or related hardware. These cookies may also be used to limit ad repetition and measure campaign effectiveness.
