Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

1. Information We Collect

Username: You provide a display name when creating or joining a game. This is not linked to any account and is not stored after the game session ends.

Analytics data: If you consent to analytics cookies, we collect anonymised usage data via Vercel Analytics, including page views and custom events (game creation, round completion, etc.). This data does not identify you personally.

Connection data: Our real-time server processes your IP address and WebSocket connection data to facilitate gameplay. This data is not stored beyond the session.

2. How We Use Information

  • To provide and operate the game
  • To understand how the Service is used (with consent)
  • To improve the Service

3. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

  • Vercel — hosting and analytics

These services may process data according to their own privacy policies. No personal data is shared with advertising or marketing services.

4. Data Storage

Vowel Movement does not have a database. No user accounts, scores, or game history are stored server-side. Your cookie preference is stored in your browser's localStorage.

5. Cookies

We use cookies only for analytics purposes, and only with your explicit consent. See our Cookie Policy for details.

6. Your Rights

Under GDPR and similar regulations, you have the right to:

  • Withdraw consent for analytics at any time via the Cookie Preferences page
  • Request information about what data we process
  • Request deletion of any data we hold

Since we store no personal data server-side, most data rights are automatically satisfied.

7. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8. Data Transfers

As the Service uses cloud infrastructure (Vercel), data may be processed in various countries. By using the Service, you consent to this processing.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the latest revision.
