Privacy Policy

Last updated October 14, 2026

This policy explains what information playgathered.com ("Gathered," "we") collects and how it is used.

Information stored on your device

Gathered saves your puzzle progress and your stats (games played, streak) in your own browser using local storage. This information stays on your device. We do not receive it, and you can clear it at any time by clearing your browser data.

Information we collect

We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not collect your name, email address, or other personal details. Our hosting provider, Netlify, may automatically record basic technical information such as IP addresses and browser type to keep the site running and secure.

Advertising and cookies

We may show ads from Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and other sites on the Internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also learn more at aboutads.info. Visitors in some regions, such as the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, will be asked for consent before personalized ads are shown.

Links to other sites

Gathered links to YouTube, Amazon, and Buy Me a Coffee. Those sites have their own privacy policies. Some Amazon links may be affiliate or storefront links, which means we may earn a small commission from qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.

Children

Gathered is a family-friendly game for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
