#1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences and improve your browsing experience. Cookies can be "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (remain on your device for a set period).

#3. Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be disabled. They enable core functionality such as maintaining your session and security features. Without these cookies, the website would not work properly.
#4. Third-Party Media (YouTube Embeds)
redstream.tv embeds YouTube videos on some pages. If you consent to "Third-Party Media" cookies, the YouTube player will load and may set cookies according to Google's Privacy Policy.
If you do not consent, we display a placeholder image instead of the embedded video, with a link to watch on YouTube directly. This prevents YouTube from setting cookies until you choose to visit YouTube.
You can change your preference at any time using the cookie settings in our footer or the consent banner.
#5. Managing Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete cookies individually or all at once
- Block cookies from specific or all websites
- Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is set
Important: Blocking essential cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly.

#7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. If we add new types of cookies (such as analytics or marketing cookies), we will update the cookie consent banner to request your consent.
