💾 2. What data is stored?

When visiting the website

Your browser automatically transmits technical data (e.g. IP address, browser type, page requested) to our web server on each page load. This is stored briefly in server logs solely for security and operational purposes. No personal profiling takes place.

Visitor statistics

To improve this service we collect anonymised visit statistics server-side. Your IP address is never stored in plain text — it is immediately converted into a non-reversible SHA-256 hash. The page visited and time of visit are also recorded. Re-identification of individual persons is not possible. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest). The data is not shared with third parties. No tracking cookies or browser storage are involved.

When registering

When creating an account the following data is stored: username, email address, password (bcrypt hash), preferred language, and game statistics.

Feedback form

Messages submitted via the feedback form are stored in the database and viewed only by the operator. Non-logged-in users leave no personal data.

🍪 3. Cookies

This website uses only strictly necessary cookies:

NamePurposeDuration
PHPSESSID Session management (login state, game state, security token) End of session
gluflags_remember "Stay logged in" feature – only set when the user explicitly enables this option at login 30 days

No tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies are used. Browser localStorage stores only your theme preference (light/dark) and the cookie notice acknowledgement. This data never leaves your browser.

🌐 4. External services

CSS and JavaScript libraries are loaded from the jsDelivr CDN. Your IP address is transmitted to jsDelivr servers in the process. jsDelivr states it does not collect personal data for tracking purposes.

Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. Your IP address may be transmitted to Google servers. For details on Google's data processing see policies.google.com/privacy.
