Privacy Notice

Last Updated: November 22, 2025

1. Introduction

QuackThink ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Notice explains how we collect, use, and share information when you use our browser-based party game service ("the Service").

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to provide and improve the Service:

User-Provided Information: When you join a lobby, you provide a username and select an icon. This information is visible to other players in your game lobby. We do not require an email address or password.
Automatically Collected Information: To maintain your game session, we use your browser's `localStorage`. This stores a session ID, your chosen username, and icon on your device so you can reconnect to a game if you get disconnected. We also process your IP address to establish and maintain a network connection with our server. This data is not stored long-term.

3. How We Use Your Information

Your information is used exclusively to:

Operate and maintain the Service (e.g., creating lobbies, displaying players, tracking scores).
Allow you to reconnect to an active game session.
Improve the user experience and develop new games.

4. Data Storage and Security

Your session information (username, icon, session ID) is stored in your browser's `localStorage` and is cleared when you log out or clear your browser data. We take reasonable measures to protect the information transmitted to our servers from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access.

5. Third-Party Services

We use third-party services to support our platform:

Google AdSense: To help keep QuackThink free, we display ads from Google. Google may use cookies or other tracking technologies to serve personalized ads. You can learn more about how Google collects and uses data in their Privacy & Terms.
