Privacy policy

In short

ArcadeNotes.com can store information locally in your browser about your game preferences and progress if you allow it. This information is not sent to or stored on our servers. We use log file information and similar technologies to understand how the website is used.

Game data on your device

If you enable local saving, the website stores the following information in your browser:

• Arcade progress, including scores, statistics, and completed levels.
• Whether you have completed the tutorial.
• Your sound settings.
• Your control preferences.

You can turn off local saving from Progress to delete game data and preferences saved by this version. To remove data left by older versions, clear the site's data in your browser settings.

Log file information

When you visit the website, our servers and service providers may automatically record information about your request. This may include your IP address, browser and device type, pages requested, referring page, and the date and time of your visit. We use this information to operate and secure the website, troubleshoot problems, and understand how it is used.

Web beacons and similar technologies

We may use a small script or similar technology to measure visits and website performance. It may collect information such as the page viewed, referring page, and how quickly the page loads. We use the resulting statistics to understand traffic and improve the website.

Why we process request information

Where request information is personal data, we process it based on our legitimate interests in providing the website, keeping it secure, resolving technical problems, and understanding its performance. We use website statistics to see general usage patterns, not to identify individual visitors.

Service providers and international processing

The providers that host, secure, and provide analytics for the website receive the technical information needed to provide those services. This can include your IP address when your browser requests a page. These providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where required, transfers of personal data are protected by safeguards such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

How long information is kept

Game data saved by this version remains on your device until you turn off local saving or clear the site's data in your browser. You can also reset saved Arcade statistics without removing other saved preferences. Our hosting provider's retention of request information depends on the type of record and the retention settings for the website. We do not keep a separate copy of server request logs.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask for access to, correction or deletion of, or limits on the use of your personal data. You may also have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests and to complain to your local data protection authority. Use the contact form linked below to make a request. These rights apply to personal data handled through the website.

Children's privacy

The website does not offer accounts or ask visitors to submit their name, email address, or other personal details. If local saving is enabled, game progress stays in the browser on the device being used. As with any visitor, our hosting provider may receive technical request information, including an IP address, when someone visits. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us. We will review the request and delete information within our control where appropriate.

Delete local data

Use Progress → Reset saved progress to remove Arcade statistics. Clear the site's data in your browser settings to remove all saved game data and preferences, including from older versions.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the website or our practices. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Changes to this Privacy Policy take effect when the updated page is published.
