Cookie Policy
Last updated: 29.09.2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Whiz Art Media Ltd ("GiggleTime," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the GiggleTime website and apps (the "Service").
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies, such as your browser's local storage, work in a comparable way. In this policy we refer to all of them as "cookies".
2. We Only Use Strictly Necessary Cookies
GiggleTime uses only cookies that are strictly necessary to provide the Service you ask for, such as keeping you logged in, remembering your language and settings, and protecting our forms against spam and abuse.
We do not use advertising, marketing or tracking cookies, and we do not allow third parties to place advertising cookies through the Service. Our analytics are cookieless: we count page views on our own servers without cookies or identifiers.
3. Cookies We Use

If you enable push notifications, we also store your notification token and preference in your browser's local storage, so notifications can be delivered and switched off again.
4. Third-Party Services
Google reCAPTCHA and Google Sign-In are loaded only on the pages and forms that need them. Stripe is used, through our subscription provider RevenueCat, only when you pay on the web. Comedian videos are played through YouTube's privacy-enhanced mode, which sets no cookies unless you start a video. These providers handle any cookies they set under their own policies:
- Google (Sign-In, reCAPTCHA, YouTube): https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Stripe: https://stripe.com/privacy
- RevenueCat: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy
5. Our Embeddable Widget
The GiggleTime "Joke of the Day" widget that other websites can embed does not set any cookies.
6. Managing Cookies
Because we only use strictly necessary cookies, we do not ask for cookie consent. You can still delete or block cookies in your browser settings at any time. If you block them, parts of the Service may not work, such as staying logged in or submitting forms.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
