Last updated: March 31, 2026
Spellfall ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website spellfall.pages.dev (the "Site"). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information when you use our Site.
Information We Collect
Spellfall is a browser-based game that collects minimal information to provide gameplay functionality:
- Device Identifier: A randomly generated unique ID stored in your browser's localStorage. This is used to track your game progress, personal bests, and race statistics. It is not linked to your real identity.
- Player Name: A randomly generated name assigned to you, which you can change. This is displayed to other players during races.
- Game Data: Your race times, win/loss records, and gameplay preferences (volume settings, character selection) are stored locally in your browser and on our game server.
- Usage Data: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage data such as pages visited, session duration, device type, and general geographic region. This helps us understand how players use the game and improve the experience.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use the following technologies:
- localStorage: Used to store your game preferences, device ID, personal bests, and settings locally in your browser. This data never leaves your device unless you participate in multiplayer races.
- Google Analytics: Uses cookies to collect anonymous usage statistics. You can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our Site or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Third-Party Advertising
We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on our Site. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our Site and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.

Multiplayer Data
When you participate in multiplayer races, the following data is shared with other players through our game server (powered by SpacetimeDB):
- Your player name
- Your character selection
- Your in-game position and actions during the race
- Your race results (finish time, placement)
This data is transmitted in real-time during gameplay and stored temporarily for the duration of the match. Race results may be stored on our server for leaderboard purposes.
Children's Privacy
Spellfall does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. The game does not require account registration or the submission of any personal information to play. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove that information.
Data Retention
- Local data (localStorage) persists until you clear your browser data.
- Server data (race results, leaderboard entries) is retained indefinitely to maintain leaderboards.
- Multiplayer session data (player positions, match state) is temporary and deleted after each match ends.
Data Security
All communication between your browser and our game server is encrypted using WebSocket Secure (WSS) and HTTPS protocols. We do not store passwords, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information.
