Privacy Policy

How We Handle Your Data

1. What We Collect

CloseWord is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal data:

• Game statistics — stored locally in your browser (localStorage). Never sent to our servers.
• Anonymous analytics — we use Plausible Analytics (self-hosted) to count page views. No cookies, no personal data.
• Google Analytics — for aggregated traffic analysis. You can opt out via your browser settings.

2. What We Don't Collect

• No accounts, no passwords, no email addresses
• No cookies (except analytics)
• No personal identifiers
• No location data beyond country-level (from IP, anonymized)

3. Third-Party Services

We use:

• Cloudflare — for DNS, CDN, and DDoS protection. Cloudflare may process your IP address for security purposes.
• Plausible Analytics (click.pageview.click) — privacy-focused, cookie-free analytics.
• Google Analytics — for aggregated traffic measurement.
• Google Fonts — for typography. Google may log font requests.

4. Data Storage

All game data (guesses, statistics, settings) is stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage. You can clear this at any time by clearing your browser data for this site.
