Privacy

Your Privacy Matters

This is Cerdikgame’s Privacy Policy. It explains how we handle the information we collect when you visit our website or play games. We take privacy seriously and want you to understand what happens with your data.

What This Policy Covers

This policy applies to all visitors and users of Cerdikgame. It covers the information we collect when you browse our site, play games, or interact with ads. If you use other services or websites we link to, their own privacy policies apply.

Information We Collect

We collect a few types of information to make the site work smoothly and improve your experience. Here’s what that includes:

• Automatic Data: When you visit, your device sends basic information like your IP address, browser type, and the pages you view. This helps us understand how people use the site.
• Cookies & Tracking: Small text files stored on your device to remember preferences, track visits, and improve performance. We use different types, explained later.
• Gameplay Data: If you play games, some details (like scores or progress) may be saved temporarily to let you resume later. This isn’t tied to your identity unless you create an account.
• Account Data: If you register, we’ll ask for a username, email, and password. We don’t ask for unnecessary personal details.
• Referral Data: If you come to the site from another platform (like social media or ads), we may track that to measure traffic sources.

How We Collect Information

Most of the data we gather is done automatically through:

• Cookies and similar technologies (like browser storage) placed on your device.
• Scripts embedded in our website that log interactions without requiring action from you.
• Third-party services we use for analytics, ads, and game hosting (more details below).

We don’t manually collect personal information unless you provide it, like when signing up.

How We Use Your Information

We use the data we collect for specific purposes:

• Running the Website: Basic data helps us keep the site operational, fix issues, and improve performance.
• Analytics: We analyze how people use the site to make it faster and more enjoyable.
• Personalization: If you create an account, we may save preferences (like game settings) to improve your experience.
• Ads: We show ads to support the site. Some ads are tailored based on your interests, inferred from your browsing behavior.
• Legal Compliance: We may share data if required by law or to protect our rights.

We don’t sell your personal information to third parties.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device to help the site function. Here’s what we use:

• Essential Cookies: Required for the site to work—like remembering your login or game progress.
• Analytics Cookies: Track how you use the site (e.g., which pages you visit) to improve performance.
• Advertising Cookies: Used to show relevant ads and measure their effectiveness.

You can manage or opt out of most cookies through your browser settings. We also provide a cookie consent tool when you first visit.

Third-Party Services

We rely on trusted third parties to help run the site and show ads. Here’s what they do:

Google Analytics

Google Analytics collects anonymous data about site visits, like:

• Pages viewed
• Time spent on the site
• Device and browser information

This data is never linked to your personal identity.

Google AdSense

AdSense displays ads and uses cookies to:

• Personalize ads based on your interests (inferred from browsing)
• Measure ad performance

You can opt out of personalized ads through Google’s ad settings.

Game Providers

Some games are hosted by third parties (e.g., embedded iframes). These providers may have their own privacy policies—check their terms for details.

Data Sharing

We share data only in limited cases:

• Ad Networks: Anonymous data with partners like Google AdSense to deliver and track ads.
• Analytics Providers: Non-personal data with services like Google Analytics to improve the site.
• Legal Requirements: If required by law (e.g., court orders), we may disclose data.

We don’t rent, sell, or trade your personal information.

Data Retention

We keep data only as long as necessary:

• Temporary Data: Like cookies or session logs, are deleted when you close your browser.
• Analytics Data: Retained for up to 26 months to analyze trends.
• Account Data: Stored until you delete your account or request removal.

After this period, data is securely deleted.

Children’s Privacy

We don’t knowingly collect data from users under 13. If you’re a parent or guardian and believe your child’s data was collected, contact us at [email protected].
