Cookie Policy
What cookies are, which categories we use on Wallpapers Central, the detailed cookie list and how to manage or withdraw your consent at any time.
What are cookies
Cookies are small text files that websites save on your device to store information between visits. Alongside cookies we use similar technologies (such as localStorage and pixels) which, for simplicity, we collectively call “cookies”.
On your first visit we show a banner with three equivalent choices — Accept, Customize, Reject — and no non-necessary cookie is installed without your consent.
