Ome.ggCookie Policy
Last updated: 22 May 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Ome.gg, operated by Eastwood Media, uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) when you use our Service. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. "Local storage" is a similar browser technology that stores small amounts of data. Both let a site remember things between page loads and visits — for example, that you're signed in to your anonymous session.
2. How we use them
Ome.gg is built to be lightweight. We use essential storage needed to run the Service, and Google Analytics 4 on all pages to understand, in aggregate, how the site is used. We use no advertising cookies.
3. Cookies and storage we currently use
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| omegg_session | Essential cookie | Keeps you signed in to your anonymous session (signed, HTTP-only). | Up to 1 year |
| omegg_cookie_consent | Essential (local storage) | Remembers that you've seen our cookie notice so it isn't shown again. | Until cleared |
| _ga, _ga_* | Analytics cookie (Google Analytics 4) | Distinguishes visits so we can see aggregate usage of the site. | Up to 2 years |
| omegg_admin | Essential cookie | Signs in our own staff to the moderation panel. Never set for normal Users. | Up to 7 days |
| omegg-sidebar-* | Functional (local storage) | Remembers small layout choices in the app — whether the public-chatrooms list and the invite card are collapsed, and whether sidebar message previews are blurred. | Until cleared |
| omegg-theme | Functional (local storage) | Remembers the colour theme you picked. | Until cleared |
| omegg-match-sound | Functional (local storage) | Remembers whether random-chat sounds (match found, a reply, the other person leaving) are on. | Until cleared |
| omegg-sound-messages, omegg-sound-games, omegg-sound-calls | Functional (local storage) | Remember whether message, game and call sounds are on. | Until cleared |
| autoConnect | Functional (local storage) | Remembers whether you asked random chat to connect you to the next person automatically. | Until cleared |
Essential cookies do not require consent because the Service cannot function without them. Disabling them in your browser may prevent you from signing in or chatting.
4. Non-essential categories
| Category | Purpose | Provider |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics | Understand aggregate usage of the site so we can improve the Service. | Google Analytics 4 |
| Advertising | Not used. We show no third-party ads and set no advertising cookies. | — |
You can opt out of Google Analytics in your browser with Google's opt-out add-on, or by blocking cookies for this site.
5. Managing cookies
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and clear local storage at any time. Most browsers also let you block cookies entirely, though this may affect how the Service works. For more on your privacy choices and rights, see our Privacy Policy.
6. Changes
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above.
