Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information PacmanGames.net ("we", "the site") handles when you visit and play the Pacman game here. We keep it short because we collect very little.

What we don't collect

You don't need an account to play. We don't ask for your email address, real name, phone number or payment details, and we don't sell personal information.

Visit statistics

We use a privacy-focused analytics service to count page views and visitors and to see things like which country, device type and referring website a visit came from. We also record simple game events — for example that the game was started, how long it took to load, that someone stayed for a minute, used fullscreen, liked, shared or commented. These numbers are used in aggregate to make the site better. They are not used to identify you or to build an advertising profile.

Likes and comments

• Likes: when you press Like, we store a small value in your browser so the button can show that you already liked the page, and we keep an anonymous count.
• Comments: if you post a comment, we store the name you choose (optional) and the text you write, along with the time. Comments are public and appear on the page. Comments are plain text; links are not accepted. To limit spam, we apply rate limits and may moderate or remove comments that are abusive or off-topic.

Please don't put personal information in a comment.

Cookies and local storage

We use a small number of first-party cookies or browser storage values to remember your likes, to limit comment spam, and to keep a page looking the same for you while we test a design change. We don't use third-party advertising cookies at this time. If that changes, we will update this page first.

The embedded game

The game shown on the home page is an open-source HTML5 remake hosted on GitHub Pages (masonicgit.github.io). It only loads after you press Play. When it loads, your browser connects to GitHub's servers, which receive your IP address and standard browser information, as with any website. GitHub's own privacy statement applies to that connection. The game saves your high score in your browser's local storage on your device; we don't receive it. You can remove it at any time by clearing your browser data.

Children

The site is a general-audience game page. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children, and playing requires no personal information at all.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies and local storage in your browser settings; the game will still work, but your likes and high score may not be remembered. You can play without ever posting a comment.

Changes to this policy

If we change how the site handles information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
