Privacy
The short version: you can play every game without telling us anything. If you make an account, we keep only what’s needed to save your progress and show leaderboards, and you can download or delete it any time.
Last updated 5 October 2026.
Playing as a guest
Your scores, unlocks and settings are saved in your browser’s storage on that device. Nothing about you is sent to us, apart from anonymous error reports if something breaks, anonymous play counts and any feedback you choose to send (see below). No cookies, no ads and no third-party analytics or tracking scripts.
To move progress without an account you can make a transfer code. The code holds your saves, and you copy it yourself. It isn’t sent anywhere.
If you make an account
Accounts are optional. We hold:
- Your email address, only to sign you in with a link or code. We never show it to other players, and we don’t send newsletters.
- A made-up player name picked from a word list (for example “SwiftOtter42”). This is what appears on leaderboards.
- “Old enough: yes”. We ask for your birth year, use it to check, and throw it away.
- Game saves: best scores, stars, unlocks and settings.
- Scores you submit to leaderboards, with the time of each run.
- Sign-in records kept by our sign-in service: when you signed in, your IP address and browser, used to keep accounts secure.
We use this only to run the games, saves and leaderboards. We don’t sell it, share it for advertising, or use it to build profiles.
Error reports
If something breaks while you play, your browser sends us an anonymous error report so we can fix it. It has the game, the error message, the page (without any address details), your browser type (for example “iOS Safari”), your screen size, whether you were online, and a random number for that one visit. It holds no account, email, IP address or anything you typed, and we keep it for 14 days. This happens for guests too, because nothing in it identifies you.
Feedback
You can rate a game or the site and leave a comment, from the Feedback link or the “How was it?” stars after you play, and suggest a new game with Request a game. We keep the game it’s about, your rating, the kind of note (bug, idea, praise, other or game request), a genre if you pick one for a request, your comment, the page (without any address details), your browser type, your screen size and whether you were signed in (just yes or no). To understand the note we also keep where you sent it from (the stars after a game or the Feedback link), how long the game was open, how many rounds you started and your last score (plus the mode, level and win or loss if the game tells us), which version of the site you had, and your country (from your internet connection, nothing finer). Notes sent by our own team and testers are marked as such. It holds no account, email, name or IP address. Anything in a comment that looks like an email address or phone number is blanked out before it’s stored, so please don’t put personal details in it. We read feedback to improve the games and keep it for 180 days.
Play counts
To learn which games people enjoy and what needs fixing, the site counts plays anonymously. When you visit, open or close a game, your browser tells us: which game, how long it was on screen, how many runs you played, how fast it loaded and how smoothly it ran, your device type (phone, tablet or computer), your browser type, whether you were signed in (just yes or no) and the kind of site that sent you and its name (for example “social, TikTok” or “search, Google”, never the page itself; worked out from the referring site or from the app’s built-in browser, which names itself), and when you arrive from another site straight on a game, guide or category page, which of our pages that was, plus a random number for that one visit. While a game is open it also sends a short check-in with the seconds played so far, and when a round ends, the score and the level or win/lose if the game shows them. On the home page we count whether you scrolled, searched, opened a tab or tapped Surprise me (just yes or no, once per visit). We also note the country and the state or region the visit comes from (for example “GB” or “California”). Our network provider works that out from the connection and passes on only those names. We never receive or store your IP address, city or anything more precise.
To count how many players come back, your device remembers the day it first visited, the day it last visited and the kind of site or app that first brought it (for example “TikTok”), in its own storage. We only receive “new device”, “first visit today”, “days since the first visit” and that first app’s name. There’s no cookie, no account, email, IP address or lasting id in any of it, so we can’t link one visit to another or to you. Nothing goes to anyone else. We keep the individual counts for 30 days and daily totals for 13 months.
If your browser sends “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control, nothing is counted. You can also turn it off for this browser here:
Children
Accounts are for players aged 13 and over (16 and over in the EU, EEA and UK). Younger players can play everything as a guest, with progress saved on their device. If we learn an account belongs to a younger child we delete it.
