1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to website owners.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them).
2. Cookies We Use
Rig Flip uses cookies and similar technologies to provide and improve the Service. Below is a breakdown of the types of cookies we use:

- Security cookies: Used to detect authentication abuses and protect your account from unauthorized access.
Functional Cookies
These cookies enhance functionality and personalization but are not strictly necessary:
- Theme preference: Stores your dark/light mode preference so your choice persists across sessions.

5. Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal that can be sent to websites. Currently, there is no industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals. We do not currently respond to DNT signals, but we only use essential cookies required for the Service to function.
