Privacy Policy

Guess the Flag ("we", "us", or "the site") provides free browser-based flag games developed and operated by us at guesstheflag.app. This policy explains what information may be processed when you visit the site, play our games, share a game, or contact us.

No account or login

Guess the Flag does not require registration or login. We do not operate user accounts and do not intentionally collect passwords, profile data, or payment details.

Technical information

Our hosting, content-delivery, and security provider may automatically process standard request information such as your IP address, browser and device type, requested URL, referring page, and access time. This information is used to deliver the site, games, flag images, and audio files, maintain availability, prevent abuse, and diagnose errors. We do not use it to create a personal profile.

Game progress and browser storage

Game progress, scores, levels, answers, and sound settings currently remain in the active page only. We do not save them to an account, database, local storage, or session storage, and they reset when the page is reloaded or closed.

Cookies, analytics, and advertising

We use Google Analytics to understand how the site and games are used and to improve their performance and content. Google Analytics may process information such as pages visited, game and page interactions, referring pages, browser and device information, approximate geographic information derived from an IP address, and cookies or similar identifiers. We receive analytics reports rather than social-media login details or game-account profiles. Google processes this information under its own policies; more information is available in Google's Privacy Policy.

We may use third-party advertising services, including Google AdSense, to display and measure advertisements on the site. Advertising partners may place or read cookies, use web beacons, and process IP addresses, device information, and other identifiers to deliver, personalize, limit, and measure ads. Ads may be personalized or non-personalized depending on your location, consent choices, and applicable law. You can learn more about how Google uses information for advertising and manage Google ad preferences through My Ad Center.

You can restrict or delete cookies through your browser settings, and Google provides a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Blocking analytics or advertising technologies should not prevent you from playing the games, although our infrastructure provider may still use essential security technologies needed to protect and deliver the site.

Sharing and external services

All games available on the site are developed and operated by us; they are not supplied or embedded by a third-party game provider. Flag images and audio are delivered through our CDN domain. If you choose to share a game or follow an external link, your browser or selected platform will process that action under its own privacy policy; we do not receive your social-media login details.

Contact information

If you email us, we receive your email address and the information you include in your message. We use it only to understand and respond to your request, protect the site, or meet legal obligations.

Retention and your choices

Technical logs may be retained by our infrastructure provider for the period needed to operate, secure, and troubleshoot its services. Analytics information may be retained by Google according to our analytics settings and Google's policies. Contact messages may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to handle the request or meet legal obligations. Because we do not operate user accounts or store game progress, we generally do not hold an account profile or game record to access or delete. Privacy questions or requests can be sent to the address below.

Children

The site is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly request personal information from children. Contact us if you believe a child has provided personal information directly to us.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as the games, site, or services change. Questions, privacy requests, or notices about content can be sent to support@guesstheflag.app. We will handle requests according to applicable law and may need enough information to understand and respond to the request.
