Cookie Policy
Last updated: 3 October 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how www.2play.com (the "Website"), operated by 2play, uses cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control them. For more on how we handle your personal data, see our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. They let the website remember things between pages and visits, such as the contents of your cart. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage and session storage, work in a comparable way. In this policy, "cookies" covers all of them.
Some cookies are set by the website you visit (first-party cookies). Others are set by another company's domain (third-party cookies).
2. How we use cookies
Our store runs on Shopify, which sets most of the cookies on the Website for us. We group them as follows:
- Strictly necessary: needed for the Website to work, for example to keep your cart, sign you in, process your order and keep the Website secure. They cannot be switched off.
- Personalisation: remember your actions to personalise your next visit. We do not currently set any cookies in this category.
- Analytics: help us understand how visitors use the Website, so that we can improve it.
- Marketing: used by us and by Shopify to measure and improve marketing, which can include showing you ads for our store on other websites.
We do not currently use cookies from advertising networks such as Google or Meta. If we add such tools in the future, we will update this policy and ask for your consent first.
3. Your consent
If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or another region where consent is required, a cookie banner asks for your choice on your first visit. Personalisation, analytics and marketing cookies are only used if you accept them. Strictly necessary cookies are always used, because the Website cannot work without them.
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time with the cookie preferences link. Withdrawing consent does not affect the use of cookies before you withdrew it.

Browser storage
Shopify's scripts also use your browser's local storage and session storage for technical purposes, such as remembering your consent choice during a visit and keeping the checkout working. This data stays in your browser.
5. Payments
Payments are processed by Stripe. During payment, for example when your bank asks you to confirm a card payment (3-D Secure), Stripe may set fraud-prevention cookies on its own domains. These are covered by Stripe's cookie policy.
6. Content from other providers
To display the Website, your browser loads some files directly from other providers: fonts from Google Fonts, some scripts from the jsDelivr and Google Hosted Libraries networks, and game images and videos from Steam's servers. These providers do not set cookies through our Website, but they receive your IP address and basic browser information when your browser requests the files. See our Privacy Policy for more information.
7. Managing cookies in your browser
In addition to the cookie preferences on our Website, you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Each browser explains how in its help pages. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the Website, such as the cart and checkout, will not work.
8. Changes and contact
We may update this Cookie Policy when we change the cookies we use. The date at the top shows when it last changed. If you have any questions, email us at support@2play.com.
