Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-01-11

Stick War on stickwargame.org lets you play Stick War in your browser. We respect your privacy and keep data collection minimal. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it.

TL;DR (The Short Version)

  • No account required to play
  • No personal information collected by default
  • No selling or renting of your data
  • Analytics are optional and aggregate
  • Games still work if you block cookies

What We Collect

By default, we do not collect personally identifiable information (PII). You don't need to create an account or provide any personal details to play games on our site.

To keep the site running smoothly, we may collect anonymous, aggregated data such as:

  • Browser type and version
  • Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
  • Approximate location (country/region level, not precise)
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Error logs for debugging

This data is used only to understand site performance and improve your gaming experience.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics and/or Plausible to measure site traffic. These tools:

  • Track aggregated trends (for example, which pages are popular)
  • Do not identify individual users for advertising
  • Respect browser-level blocking (ad blockers, privacy extensions)

If you block analytics tools, the games will still work normally.

Comments (Waline)

If you choose to post a comment, the Waline comment widget will process:

  • Nickname you provide
  • Email address (required for anti-spam and avatars)
  • Comment content
  • Basic metadata like IP address and user agent for moderation

Comments are public and visible to other visitors. We moderate comments to remove spam and inappropriate content.

Cookies & Local Storage

We use minimal cookies for:

  • Analytics - Anonymous usage tracking
  • Comments - Remembering your nickname for convenience

The game itself may store progress or settings in local storage or IndexedDB. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some convenience features may reset.

Third-Party Embeds

Our games are embedded from third-party providers. These providers may have their own data collection practices. We use referrerpolicy="no-referrer" on embeds to limit data sharing, but we recommend reviewing third-party policies if you have concerns.

Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent any user data. We may share limited data only:

  • With infrastructure providers (hosting, CDN) under confidentiality agreements
  • When required by law

Operational logs are kept only as long as needed for security and troubleshooting.

Children's Privacy

Our site is designed for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal data, please contact us for removal.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Block cookies and tracking in your browser
  • Request deletion of any data we may hold about you
  • Request removal of your comments

To exercise these rights, email support@stickwargame.org.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as needed. Material changes will be posted prominently on the site. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated policy.
