Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how The Amber Token may use cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website. It applies to the website for our restaurant and real-world card lounge experience, and is intended to help you understand the choices available to you.

What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that may be placed on your device when you visit a website. They can help a website remember information about your visit, such as a choice you have made, or help the website understand how its pages are being used. Similar technologies can perform related functions, including storing or recognising information in your browser or device.
This policy concerns cookies and similar technologies that may be used when visitors access The Amber Token website. We use plain language here because these tools should be understandable without specialist technical knowledge. Their purpose and operation can vary according to the feature or service involved.
- Session cookies
- Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser. They may support a visit while it is in progress, without necessarily remaining on your device after that browsing session ends.
- Persistent cookies
- Persistent cookies may remain for a set period or until you delete them. The period can depend on the cookie’s purpose, the settings applied to it, and the controls available in your browser.
First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies may be set by services used on, or connected with, that website. These are ownership categories rather than a statement that any particular service is always active on this site.
Cookies used on this website
The exact cookie inventory can change as website functions are reviewed or enabled. Where cookies or similar technologies are used, their purposes may include the categories below.
-
01
Strictly necessary functions
Cookies may be used where needed to help the website operate reliably and securely. This may include remembering choices that are necessary for core website functionality during a visit. These functions are described generally because the active technical configuration may change, and no specific login, booking, payment or account feature is assumed by this policy.
-
02
Preference functions
Where enabled, preference cookies may remember choices you make on the website. Those choices can include cookie settings or display-related selections, so that a returning visit can reflect a preference already expressed. Their use depends on the relevant function being available and on the choices you make through any presented preference controls.
-
03
Performance and measurement Where enabled
Where used and permitted, measurement cookies may help us understand how visitors use pages, such as which areas are visited or whether information is easy to find. This can provide usage-oriented insight that helps maintain and improve the website. We do not identify a particular analytics provider or processor here because no named implementation has been approved for this policy.

04
Third-party functionality
If the website uses functionality supplied by another service, that service may use cookies or similar technologies in connection with its feature. This is conditional on the relevant functionality being present. For further context about this possibility, see Third parties and retention.
Managing preferences
Where website preference controls are presented, you may be able to use them to manage the cookie choices available to you. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. The options shown to you can differ depending on the browser, device, and website function involved, so it is useful to review the controls available in the environment you are using.
Common browser controls may allow you to:
- Delete existing cookies that have already been stored on your device.
- Block future cookies, either generally or according to the options offered by your browser.
- Receive alerts before cookies are stored, where your browser provides that setting.
Restricting or deleting cookies is a personal choice. However, some choices or services on a website may not work as intended when cookies are limited. This does not remove your ability to decide what is appropriate for you; it simply reflects that browser settings can affect how some website functions operate.
Third parties and retention
Where applicable, third parties may place or access cookies when services they provide are used on or connected with this website. This does not mean third-party cookies are always present. If a third-party service is involved, that party’s own privacy or cookie policy may also apply to its handling of cookies and related information.
- Cookie duration
- How long a cookie remains can vary according to its purpose and whether it is session-based or persistent. A session cookie will generally end when the browser is closed, while a persistent cookie may remain until its configured period ends or it is deleted through browser controls.
- Related information
- Information connected with cookies may be retained only for as long as needed for the relevant purpose or as otherwise required. This policy does not set a universal retention period because no approved retention schedule has been supplied.
When third-party services are involved, review the relevant service provider’s own policy and the controls available through your browser or that service for more information. No external provider links are listed here because none have been approved for this page.
Policy updates and contact
The Amber Token may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the website, its use of relevant technologies, or applicable requirements. When an updated version is posted on this page, the visible “Last updated” line at the beginning of the policy will be revised so visitors can identify the current version.
If you have a question about this Cookie Policy after reviewing the information above, you can use our existing contact route to send a policy-related enquiry. We do not publish contact details in this document.
