Cookie Policy
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember certain information about your visit — such as your language preference or session state — making the experience smoother. We also use similar browser storage technologies (such as localStorage) where appropriate.
2. How We Use Cookies
dirtychat.webcam uses cookies for three purposes: keeping the Platform functional, understanding how it is used so we can improve it, and supporting our affiliate partnership with SolidCams. We do not use advertising cookies, sell cookie data, or share data with advertising networks.
3. Your Consent Choices
When you first visit the site a cookie consent banner will appear. You may:
- Accept All — enables all cookie categories.
- Reject Optional — only strictly necessary cookies are set.
- Cookie Settings — choose individual categories using the toggles in the panel.
Your choice is stored in your browser (localStorage key dc_consent). You can change it at any time by clearing your site data or revisiting this page and adjusting your preferences.

5. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the Platform to function and are set automatically. They handle session security and language routing. Without them the Platform cannot operate correctly and they do not require your consent under GDPR.
6. Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics)
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the Platform — which pages are most visited, how long sessions last, and where visitors come from. All data is aggregated and anonymised; IP addresses are truncated before storage. No personally identifiable information is collected or sold.
Analytics cookies are only placed if you select Accept All or enable Analytics in Cookie Settings. You can also opt out at any time via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Google’s privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.
7. Functional / Affiliate Cookies (SolidCams)
When you click a “Start Chat” or similar link, you are directed to SolidCams — our affiliate partner that operates the live-cam platform. SolidCams may set cookies on their domain to attribute the visit to dirtychat.webcam for commission purposes. These cookies are governed by SolidCams’ own privacy policy and are only active when you navigate to their platform. dirtychat.webcam does not read or control these third-party cookies.
8. Managing Cookies in Your Browser
You can view, delete, and block cookies at any time through your browser settings:
- Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
- Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions
Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent the Platform from functioning correctly.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our technology or legal obligations. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
