Privacy Policy
Effective Date: October 2026 | Last Updated: October 2026
Website Domain: dailypuzzle.website (DailyPuzzle.website)
1. Overview & Data Minimization Principle
At DailyPuzzle.website, we respect your right to privacy. We strictly enforce a data minimization principle: we do not collect, request, or store any direct Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as real names, email addresses, phone numbers, passwords, or street addresses.
2. Data We Store & Pseudonymous Profiles
To deliver seamless gameplay, daily streaks, and leaderboard rankings across puzzle games, our service initializes a pseudonymous profile stored in your browser's local storage (localStorage):
- Sync Key: A cryptographically generated 16-character identifier (e.g.,
SDK-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX) used strictly for game session restoration and device syncing without revealing identity. - Display Nickname: A randomly generated default nickname (e.g., SpeedySolver47) which you can customize at any time.
- Game Data: Daily streak counters, completion times, solved puzzle states, and aggregate win statistics.
Our Cloudflare D1 server database syncs game sessions and daily leaderboards strictly using your pseudonymous Sync Key and display nickname. No personal identifiers are attached to any server records.
3. Right to Erasure (GDPR / RGPD Data Deletion)
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR / RGPD), you have full control over your stored data and the right to delete your profile at any time:
Click on the User Profile button in the top navigation bar, then select Delete All My Local Data & Profile. This will immediately wipe all your local saved games, streaks, statistics, and pseudonymous profile from your device. You may also clear your browser's local storage at any time.
4. Cookies, Analytics & Third-Party Services
We partner with trusted third-party providers to analyze traffic, manage consent, and serve advertisements:

We use Cookiebot to manage cookie consent in compliance with GDPR/ePrivacy directives. Cookiebot presents an explicit consent banner allowing you to accept or decline statistical and marketing cookies at any time.
