Saves & scores
Game saves stay in this browser. An anonymous, HttpOnly cookie links posted scores to a generated callsign; no name or email is needed to play. Clearing browser data or switching browsers can create another profile. Clearing local saves does not automatically remove results already posted to the server.
What brings you back
We count visits, starts, finishes, returns, share attempts and next-game clicks at most once per browser profile, game and UTC day. Recognized campaign codes help us understand which promotions bring players back. These activity records do not include full referral URLs or freeform tracking text, and reports show totals rather than individual profiles.
Activity is retained for 90 days. The first recorded source expires after 90 days without tracked activity; cleanup runs gradually during later visits. There are no third-party analytics scripts.
Sharing & extras
Shared cards keep puzzle answers, locations and arrangements hidden. We count a share attempt, not confirmed delivery. Optional Nightjar feedback is linked to the anonymous profile. Calendar reminders are files you choose to add; they do not collect your email or subscribe you automatically.
The optional checkout preview opens on Stripe and is test-only. Stripe handles information entered on its payment page under its privacy policy. Test downloads stay linked to the purchasing browser; no email delivery link is sent.
Advertising choices
Google ads are not running here. The site’s Google verification tag identifies our publisher account; it does not load Google’s ad script or set advertising cookies. Direct sponsorships, if shown, are labelled and use an image and ordinary link without advertising trackers.
If Google ads are introduced, we will update this notice and provide the applicable consent choices before they begin. Google and its advertising partners may then use cookies to serve ads based on visits to this and other websites. You can manage personalized advertising through Google’s My Ad Center and read how Google uses information from partner sites.
