Cookies and browser storage
Updated 19 September 2026
Cookies and similar browser storage can keep a service working, remember a choice, or measure how the site is used. Optional preference cookies and full Google Analytics storage stay off until you allow them. Browsing and market prices still work if you choose Essential only.
What is used
| Storage | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| habo_session | Keeps you signed in to your habonis.com account. It contains a random session token; the matching token hash is stored server-side. | Up to 30 days, or until you sign out. |
| Temporary Google sign-in cookies | Short-lived state, PKCE verification and return-path values protect the Google OAuth sign-in flow. | Up to 10 minutes and cleared after sign-in. |
| habonis-cookie-choice-v2 | Remembers your consent choices on this device, including their expiry. Essential to respect those choices. | 180 days, then we ask again. |
| habonis-market-server | Optionally remembers Europe, Americas, Asia or automatic server selection. | Used while preference consent is valid. Removed when you reject preferences or the site next detects expired consent. |
| _ga and related _ga_* cookies | Google Analytics 4 uses these only after you allow Analytics to distinguish visits and measure site usage. | Up to 2 years, unless you withdraw consent or clear site data sooner. |
Google Analytics and consent mode
habonis.com uses Google Analytics 4 with Advanced Consent Mode and measurement ID G-EKYB9ZL3J3. The Google tag loads on each visit with advertising consent disabled. If you have not allowed Analytics, analytics storage is denied: Analytics cookies are not read or written, but Google may receive limited cookieless measurement signals for aggregate measurement and modeling. If you allow Analytics, normal Analytics measurement and cookies can be used.
Google sign-in
If you choose Continue with Google, your browser is redirected to Google. Google may use its own cookies on its domain according to Google's policies. These sign-in cookies are separate from the optional Google Analytics choice on habonis.com.
Change your mind
Open Cookie settings in the footer at any time. Choosing Essential only removes the stored market preference, denies Analytics storage and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies on this browser. Limited cookieless measurement signals may still be sent through Google Consent Mode. Authentication cookies remain essential when you choose to sign in. You can also clear site data in your browser. Choices apply to this browser and device, so you may need to choose again on another one.
External services
We do not install advertising trackers. Game icons and video thumbnails are external images, and providers receive the technical information needed to deliver them. YouTube videos use a click-to-load privacy-enhanced player, so the YouTube iframe is not loaded until you press Play. After you load or interact with that player, YouTube may use cookies or similar browser storage under its own policies. Memberships open on YouTube and Discord links open Discord.
