The short version: there are no accounts, no advertising trackers and nothing is sold. The site sets one anonymous cookie to count games, and your statistics and settings stay in your own browser.
In your browser
- The
cidcookie: a random id with no link to who you are. It lets the site count a deal once rather than on every reload, show how many people are playing right now, and keep one entry per player on the daily board. It expires after one day. - Local storage: your statistics, the card back and table colour, the Winnable setting, the nickname you last used on the daily board, whether you dismissed the privacy notice, and the first day you opened a daily game. These never leave your browser unless you share them (see below); the one exception is under Analytics. Clearing the site data in your browser deletes them.
On the server
- Game counts: how many games were dealt and won per day and per game type, kept for 45 days.
- Recent games: the last 50 games dealt or won, with the game type, deal number, country and time, shown in the live panel. Each new game pushes the oldest one out.
- Who is playing now: the random id from the cookie, for five minutes after your last move.
- The daily board: when you win the daily deal, your time, moves and country, the random id, and a nickname if you add one, kept for 45 days.
- Share links: when you press Share, the result or statistics you share are stored under a random link for one year.
- Contact messages: what you write in the contact form, the email address if you leave one, your language and country, kept for up to 180 days.
The country comes from Cloudflare (see below) as a two-letter code. Your IP address is used only to stop scripts from flooding the site: the per-minute limits live in memory, and the daily limit on contact messages stores a scrambled form of the address that cannot be turned back and is deleted after a day.
Analytics
Page views are counted with Plausible Analytics, self-hosted, which sets no cookies and collects no personal data. It reports totals such as visits, pages, countries and referring sites, never individual visitors. When you open or win a daily game it also counts which daily it was, whether the page ran inside another site, and whether this browser opened a daily on an earlier day (yes or no). No id or date goes with it.
Cloudflare
The site is delivered through Cloudflare, which caches pages and blocks attacks. Like any network your browser talks to, it processes your IP address to deliver the page.
