Privacy Policy

1. Introduction & Overview

Suika Games ("we," "our," or "us") operates suika.games. We believe casual web gaming should be enjoyable, frictionless, and respectful of personal privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines what information is collected when you visit our website and play our games, and how that information is handled.

2. Information We Collect

We strive to collect only the minimal data required to deliver high-performance browser gameplay:

• Gameplay State & High Scores: High scores, unlocked puzzle levels, and daily challenge streaks are stored locally on your device via standard browser LocalStorage. We do not transmit or store your personal gameplay history on remote external databases.
• Technical Diagnostics: Anonymized telemetry such as browser type, screen resolution, operating system, and frame-rate performance to troubleshoot physics engine rendering bugs.
• Server Logs: Standard web server access logs including IP addresses, timestamps, and referring URLs, retained briefly for security and DDoS prevention.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

We use cookies and local storage tokens strictly for essential functionality:

• Essential Storage: Preserves your volume preferences, mute toggles, and highest watermelon merge scores.
• Analytics: Aggregated, privacy-focused metrics to understand which game modes (Chaos, Time Attack, Puzzle) are most popular.
• Third-Party Advertisements: We may display non-intrusive contextual banner ads to keep our games free. Advertising partners may use anonymized cookies in accordance with their respective privacy policies.

4. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Our games are family-friendly puzzle games designed for all ages. We do not knowingly solicit or collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please reach out to us and we will promptly delete it.

5. Data Retention & Your Rights

Because your scores and puzzle progress reside in your own browser's LocalStorage, you maintain 100% control over your data at all times. You can clear your game history, unlocked stages, and cached assets anytime by clearing your browser cache and cookies.

6. Third-Party Links & External Embeds

Our website may link to official creator pages, community discords, or game platforms. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external third parties. We encourage you to review their terms upon leaving our portal.

7. Policy Revisions & Inquiries

We may update this policy periodically to reflect new browser game features or privacy regulations. Changes take effect upon posting with the "Last Updated" timestamp modified accordingly. If you have questions, please contact our privacy desk at support@suika.games.
