Privacy Policy
Last updated 6 September 2026
JACE.GAMES is a small collection of quick multiplayer and solo games, playable in a browser at jace.games and — soon — as native iOS and Android apps. This policy covers the web version now; the native apps will carry the same practices plus whatever the app stores additionally require, disclosed at download.
Plain-language summary: there are no accounts, no logins, and no advertising or analytics trackers today. We keep the minimum needed to run leaderboards and read the feedback you choose to send.
What we store
- A random device ID. When you first play, your browser generates a random identifier and keeps it in local storage. It is not tied to your name, email, phone number, or any real-world identity. It exists so a leaderboard can show one row per device (your personal best) and highlight which row is yours.
- A display name — only if you set one. It is stored so it can be shown publicly next to your scores on the leaderboards, and reserved so two devices can't hold the identical name.
- Feedback you send. If you use "Report a bug" or "Suggest a game", the message text plus the display name and device ID at that moment are stored so we can read and act on it.
- Saved game progress for a few single-player games (e.g. Bubble Blast), kept in your browser's local storage only — it never leaves your device.
What we don't do
- No advertising or cross-site/cross-app tracking. (If ads are added to the native apps in future, this policy and the app-store privacy labels will be updated first.)
- No third-party analytics, no fingerprinting, no location data.
- No selling or sharing of data with anyone for their own purposes.
Display names
Display names appear publicly on the leaderboards, so they are checked against a blocked-words list (slurs and explicit terms) when you set them. A name that matches is rejected, and a name that slips through another way is replaced with a neutral placeholder before it reaches a public board. We may also rename or remove a name that is reported or that we find is abusive.
Where it's stored and how long
Leaderboard rows, reserved names, and feedback are held in Google Cloud Firestore (US region), used only to run these features. Data is kept while the service runs; test data is purged periodically. You can ask us to delete your data at any time (see below), and clearing your browser's site data for jace.games removes the local device ID and saved progress from your side immediately.
Your choices
- Delete your data: contact us (below) with the last few characters of your device ID or the display name you use, and we will remove your leaderboard rows and reserved name.
- Reset locally: clear site data for jace.games in your browser settings.
Children
The games are suitable for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and the only data tied to a device is a random ID and an optional nickname.
Contact
Use the feedback form in the in-app menu, or email hello@jace.games. We'll respond to data-deletion requests within a reasonable time.
