Privacy Policy

Data collected

Slidex collects minimal, non-identifying gameplay data including scores, game mode, and round results. No user account or email address is required to play. Leaderboard names are chosen freely and are not connected to any real-world identity. The Daily Challenge assigns each player an anonymous random identifier (UUID) stored in a cookie — this identifier has no link to any real-world identity and is used solely to enforce the one-attempt-per-day rule and track daily streaks.

Cookies

When you visit the Daily Challenge, we set a single first-party cookie named slidex:player_id. It contains a randomly generated UUID with no connection to your identity. It is used to remember your result across sessions, enforce the one-attempt-per-day rule, and compute your daily streak. The cookie is marked HttpOnly, Secure, and SameSite=Lax, and expires after one year.

Local storage

We use browser local storage to save your display name (used on leaderboards) so you do not have to re-enter it each session. Your cookie consent preference is also stored locally. This data never leaves your device except when you voluntarily submit a score.

Analytics — Google Analytics 4

We use Google Analytics (with Consent Mode v2) to monitor gameplay patterns such as page views, session duration, and general location (country level). This helps us understand how the game is used and improve it over time. Analytics cookies are only set after you give explicit consent via the banner. If you prefer not to be tracked, you can also install the Google Analytics opt-out browser extension.

Cookies: _ga (2 years), _ga_* (2 years)

Data storage

Game performance data is stored on Neon (PostgreSQL) infrastructure, hosted on Vercel. For Challenge and Daily Challenge scores, this includes your chosen display name, an anonymous player identifier (UUID), gameplay statistics (scores, round results), and a timestamp. The display name is the only user-provided field — it is not verified and need not reflect your real name. No email address, IP address, or other personally identifiable information is stored server-side.

Audience

Slidex is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect any identifying information from users under the age of 13.

Policy updates

This policy may be updated from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page.
