Hey guys,


To help us reach more gamers and further grow the GOG community (because the more the merrier, right?), we’ve recently decided to add Facebook and AdRoll Pixels to our website. This’ll help us run better ad campaigns on third party websites and on our social media platforms.


If you find cookies a bit scary and you don’t want to be tracked, feel free to use built-in privacy features in your browser, or third party software. Finally, if you want to have a read of our cookie policy, here it is: https://www.gog.com/cookies.


Any questions, just fire away!

That's very subjective....What do you think?
What about ad campaigns in GOG Galaxy?

fables22: What do you think?
Yes.
This would happen the day after NoScript stops working for my browser. :(

It's a conspiracy!!

Hm, I once heard about Facebook, but what is AdRollPixels?
Does AdBlockPlus protect me from it?

zeogold: Yes.
That was not a "yes or no" question.

The correct answer is "maybe".


Anyway, if the cookie monster appears, this new updated cookie police will take care of it, right?

Excerpt from the cookie policy: We currently use the following ad serving technologies: (i) Facebook Pixel; and (ii) AdRoll Pixel. You can opt out of use of these technologies (which means you may see less relevant advertisements).

Is there going to be something like a site-wide setting to opt out, or do we "opt out" by blocking the cookies?

You opt-out by blocking the cookies, but if you block all cookies, there's a chance that the site won't be working properly. Alternatively, you can use third party software and ad blockers.
If my browser, say, wiped all cookies created during a session, how would that impact tracking (I would of course browse the store/ be logged in)?

Sorry, no, that's the answer to the question about life, the universe and everything, and sadly question and answer can not exist in the same universe.

Isn't that actually the answer to the question "what is 6 times 9"?

Why don’t you add a preference for this for logged-in users?
