Privacy Policy

No accounts, no personal data

Elipar doesn't have user accounts, sign-ups, or logins. We don't ask for your name, email, or any personal information to play a game.

What's stored in your browser

Favorites, recently played games, and any saved high scores are stored using your browser's local storage, on your device only. This data is never sent to our servers — it stays with you, and clearing your browser data removes it. If you use the site as an installed app (PWA), some game files are also cached locally so they keep working offline.

Leaderboards

A few games have an optional public leaderboard. If you choose to submit a score, the nickname you type and that score are sent to our database and shown publicly to other players — this is the only case where anything you enter is stored on a server rather than just your own browser. Don't use your real name if you'd rather not; nothing else about you is collected, and submitting a score is always optional.

Analytics

We use Vercel Analytics to understand aggregate traffic, such as which pages are visited and how often. It's designed to be privacy-friendly and does not use cookies or track you individually across sites. We also use PostHog to see which games get played and finished, so we know what to build more of; this includes standard technical details like your browser and device type, but not your name or any other personal information. If a game crashes or hits an error, we use Sentry to see what went wrong so we can fix it — this can include the page you were on and technical error details, again without any personal information.

We also use Google Analytics to measure how many people visit, which pages and games they open, and roughly where in the world they are. Unlike the tools above, Google Analytics does set cookies on your device to recognise repeat visits, and the data is processed by Google. We do not send it your name, email address, or anything else that identifies you personally. You can opt out across all sites that use it with Google's official opt-out browser add-on, and most ad and tracker blockers block it as well.

The games themselves

Every game on Elipar was built by us and is hosted directly by us — none of them load from another site, and none of them are someone else's game embedded here. Playing one therefore sends no data to any outside company: the game runs entirely in your browser from files served by this site.

Advertising

Elipar uses Google AdSense to show ads, which is what keeps the site free to play with no accounts and no paywall.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to Elipar and/or other sites on the internet. Third-party vendors and ad networks may also use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads that are relevant to you.

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices. Most ad and tracker blockers block these cookies as well.

Children's privacy

Some games on Elipar are suitable for kids, but the site itself does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, regardless of age.

Changes

This policy may be updated as the site changes. Continued use of Elipar after an update means you accept the revised policy.
