Privacy Policy

Effective Date: October 30, 2026

1. Overview

At GameVault, your privacy is a foundational priority. We operate under a privacy-by-design architecture: we do not require account registration, do not collect personal identifiers, do not use invasive third-party cross-site tracking cookies, and do not sell your personal data.

2. Information We Store Locally on Your Device

GameVault uses your web browser's standard localStorage API solely to enhance your local gaming experience. This data remains on your machine and is never transmitted to any central database or third party:

• Favorite Games: The list of game slugs you have bookmarked.
• High Scores: Your best scores and completion records for games like Snake Arena, Merge 2048, and Orbit Tap.
• Audio Preferences: Whether you prefer sound effects enabled or muted.
• Recently Played: Temporary list of the last games you opened for easy resumption.

3. Third-Party Services & Analytics

In our initial public launch version, GameVault does not run third-party behavioral analytics or advertising networks. Any future analytics integration will strictly adhere to transparent opt-in consent banners and GDPR / CCPA compliance frameworks.

4. Data Control & Deletion

Because all gameplay data is kept locally inside your browser, you have complete sovereignty over your information. Clearing your browser's cookies and site data for GameVault instantly wipes all saved favorites and high scores.

5. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

GameVault games are non-violent, casual, and safe for all ages. We do not solicit or knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

6. Policy Updates & Inquiries

We may update this policy periodically to reflect future features. For privacy-related inquiries, please contact us through our Contact Page.
