Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Goorizi. We build lightweight browser-based mini-games that run locally in the user's browser. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices regarding that data. Goorizi is committed to protecting your privacy and minimizing data collection.

Summary

  • We do not require accounts to play games.
  • Personal data is not collected by default.
  • Scores and preferences are stored locally (in your browser) unless you explicitly choose otherwise.

Information We Collect

Data You Provide Directly

Some games include optional free-text fields (for player names) or settings that are stored locally in your browser's storage. We do not collect or transmit these values to a server unless you explicitly use a feature that shares them (for example: an upload, submit, or online leaderboard feature). If you enable those features, we will provide clear prompts and explain what data will be sent.

Local Storage and Cookies

To keep the experience simple and fast, the site uses browser storage (localStorage or IndexedDB) for non-identifying information such as:

  • Best scores and simple game stats (per device/browser).
  • Local UI preferences (sound on/off, volume, or accessibility toggles).

This data stays on your device until you clear your browser data. The site may also use small, non-tracking cookies only where necessary to maintain UI state or preferences if a browser doesn't support localStorage.

Server Logs & Third-Party Services

If you self-host or the site is served from a hosting provider, standard server logs (IP addresses, request timestamps) may be recorded by the hosting service for security and uptime monitoring. We do not use server logs to profile players. If any third-party analytics or A/B testing tools are added in the future, this policy will be updated and the presence of those services will be disclosed.

How We Use Data

We use the minimal data necessary to:

  • Provide local best-score tracking and restore UI preferences on the same device.
  • Debug and fix issues if you report a problem (only data you provide in a bug report is used).
  • Support optional features you enable, such as exporting a score or sharing a result.

No Third-Party Advertising

At present, Goorizi does not embed third-party advertising networks that track users across sites. If this changes, we will provide notice here and in the site UI so you can opt out or make an informed choice.

User Controls & Choices

Clearing Local Data

You can clear local scores and settings by clearing your browser's localStorage/data for this site or by using any built-in UI controls provided on the site for resetting scores and preferences.

Exporting or Sharing

If you choose to share a score or upload content (for example to a leaderboard or feedback form), you'll be asked explicitly and shown what data will be shared. Only data you confirm will be transmitted.

Security

We follow reasonable security practices for the code and hosting used to serve this site. Because many games run entirely in the browser and do not require an account, the primary security responsibility rests with the hosting provider and your device. Avoid sharing sensitive personal information in game name fields or public feedback forms.

Children

Goorizi is family-friendly and suitable for children. The site does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If a parent or guardian believes information about their child has been collected, they can contact us to request removal of that information.

External Links

Some pages may include links to external websites (image credits, resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites. Please review their privacy policies when visiting them.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in the site or legal requirements. Substantive changes will include an updated effective date at the top of the page. We recommend checking this page periodically.

Contact

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or would like to request data removal or deletion of local records, please contact: goorizi@goorizi.com

Thanks for playing responsibly — we value your privacy and do our best to keep the experience safe and private.
