How your data is handled
A summary first:
- No cookies from the site unless you sign in.
- An account stores only what the features need.
- No advertising trackers, no data sales, no marketing email.
Visitors without an account
Browsing is open and sets no cookies of the site's own. The web server logs standard request data, namely IP address, browser identification and the pages requested, for security and for diagnosing faults.
Account data
Registered users have the following stored: display name, email address, a hashed password, favorites, comments and on-site notifications. The plain-text password is never stored.
Cookies after sign-in
Two cookies are set when you sign in: a session cookie that keeps the session active, and a sign-in marker that recognizes you on a later visit. Neither one is used for tracking or advertising.
Comments
Comments are published only after moderation. The moderator sees the comment text, display name, account email and the page the comment was posted on. The public sees the text and display name only.
Notifications
Update notices for saved games appear on the site. Nothing is sent to your inbox for marketing purposes.
Deletion
To delete your account or specific comments, email [email protected] from the address registered to the account.
Minors
The site is not directed at children, and accounts are not knowingly kept for them.
Revisions
If this policy changes, the updated text is published here.
