Information received from Google
If you sign in using Google, the website verifies the Google ID token and uses your Google account's unique identifier, verified email address, display name and profile picture URL. We use this information to create and recognize your player account, display your profile and associate game results with the correct account. We do not request access to Gmail, Google Drive, contacts or your Google password.
Game activity and profile information
When you play while signed in, we store game settings, server-validated moves and match states, match results, ranking points, achievements, XP, level, streak and timestamps. This supports match resumption, player statistics, leaderboards and fair server-side scoring. Unfinished, completed or abandoned match records may remain in the database for integrity and support purposes.
Information shown publicly
Leaderboards can display your Google display name, Google profile picture, rating points, wins, matches played and best score. Your email address and Google account identifier are not included in public rankings. Other players may be able to view the public ranking details while your account remains listed.
Cookies, browser storage and sessions
The site uses a necessary session cookie for login and CSRF protection. The session is configured to last up to 30 days unless you sign out, and the server may end it earlier. Browser localStorage is used to remember language preferences, unfinished guest games and an ID for resuming your latest signed-in game. Google may use its own cookies as part of the sign-in service. The site does not currently include its own advertising or analytics scripts.
How information is used and disclosed
We process this data to provide login, multiplayer-style games against bots, profiles, anti-cheat checks, leaderboards and support. An ID token is checked with Google's token verification service; profile images may be loaded from Google servers. The data is held by the website's hosting infrastructure. We do not sell personal information. We do not intentionally send private account data to other players, except for the public ranking information described above.
Retention, access and deletion
Account information, results and progress are kept while required to operate the account and associated ranking features. You may ask the website operator, using the contact address below, to access, correct or delete your account data. A deletion request may also remove your rankings and progress. Necessary technical records or backups may remain temporarily where required for security and maintenance. Signing out ends your current session but does not by itself delete your account.
Security and third-party links
The site uses HTTPS and server-side validation for signed-in games. No online service can promise absolute security. Links to Google, Oink Games and Flip 7 lead to external services with their own privacy policies. The website operator does not control the practices of those third parties.
Changes and questions
We may update this policy if the website, account features or data practices change. The updated text and date will appear here. Questions, access requests and deletion requests should be sent to the contact address listed in the operator section above.
