Browser storage used by the site

Favorites, owned cards, recently opened cards and display preferences are kept in local storage under keys that start with etcg:v1:. Local storage is not a cookie and is never sent to a server. The site works without it; you just will not have saved cards.

Analytics cookies

Advertising cookies

The site loads Google AdSense with publisher id ca-pub-4059575347806121. Google may set or read cookies and advertising identifiers to show and measure ads, including on other sites in its network. Personalization is controlled in Google’s ad settings.

Host cookies

The site is served by Cloudflare. If Cloudflare’s bot protection is on, it may set an operational cookie such as __cf_bm, described in the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
