Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 13, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Tricky Story Guide (“we”, “our”, “us”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

2. Information We Collect

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to collect anonymous usage data. This includes:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• Referring website (how you arrived at our site)
• Generic device information: browser type, operating system, screen resolution, country (derived from IP, not stored)

We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information through normal site usage. The site has no user accounts, login systems, or comment forms.

3. Cookies

We use a small number of cookies to support site functionality and analytics:

• Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _ga_*): distinguish unique visitors and sessions. Expire after 2 years.
• Google AdSense cookies (when ads are served): used to deliver and measure ad performance. Expire per Google’s policy.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time without affecting site functionality.

4. Third-Party Services

We rely on the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics 4 — anonymous usage analytics. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
• Vercel — site hosting and content delivery. See Vercel’s Privacy Policy.
• YouTube embeds — video walkthroughs may load YouTube’s player, which can set its own cookies if you interact with the video.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights under GDPR (EU/EEA), CCPA (California), or similar laws:

• Right to access any personal data we hold about you
• Right to request deletion of your data
• Right to opt out of analytics tracking (browser “Do Not Track” or use of ad blockers)

Since we collect no personal information beyond anonymous analytics, most requests can be fulfilled by clearing your browser cookies.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our site is suitable for all ages (the game is rated for general audiences), and we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. Google Analytics does not collect personal information from any age group on this site.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted by updating that date.
