Privacy and saved games

Choices in this browser

Favorites, recent games, light or dark appearance, and your statistics preference are stored locally in your browser. Some games also save progress when their version supports it. Visitors do not need an account; clearing browser data may remove these saved items.

Optional internal interaction statistics

The site does not send additional internal interaction statistics until you allow them. This choice is separate from the basic Plausible visit statistics described below. We measure page views, player starts, adding and removing favorites, loading errors and estimated visible player time, along with interface language and general device type. These internal analytics records do not include your name, email, IP address or actions inside a game.

A random browser identifier uses a first-party cookie lasting 90 days. Turning measurement off prevents new events but does not erase earlier records. We also respect Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. You can change your choice below at any time.

Plausible analytics

We automatically use Plausible to measure page visits, traffic sources, country, device type, general engagement and outbound link clicks. The analytics server analytics.wifi4games.com receives these events for wifi4flash.com. The Plausible script does not add analytics cookies.

The analytics server receives an IP address and browser information as part of the connection. We do not send names, email addresses, form contents, site search phrases or our internal analytics identifier. We remove non-campaign query parameters and URL fragments, and reduce referrers to the referring site origin. Administration and local preview pages are excluded. The optional statistics preference controls additional internal interaction measurement; Plausible visit statistics operate independently. This browser can be excluded from Plausible by setting plausible_ignore to true in its local storage.

Campaign links

If you allow analytics, we store UTM source, medium, campaign and creative labels and the landing page path without the rest of its URL. These link site visits, player starts and estimated visible player time to the random browser identifier. We do not store full referrers or advertising click IDs, and do not send these statistics to Meta or Google.

Campaign context is saved in the browser tab session after consent and expires after 30 minutes without recorded activity or after 24 hours. Turning analytics off clears this browser context. Campaign records are private to the administrator and retained for up to 90 days; older records are removed when a new campaign visit arrives.

Site search

If you allow analytics, we store the short submitted search phrase, result count and filters to improve search, with the browser identifier, language and general device type. We do not record individual keystrokes and exclude phrases shaped like email addresses, links or contact numbers. These statistics are private to the administrator.

Search records are retained for up to 90 days; older records are removed when a new search record arrives. Search and suggestions also work with analytics turned off.

Ratings, reports and contact messages

When you choose to rate or report a game, or send a message, a separate browser identifier uses a 90-day cookie so you can change your rating and we can limit duplicate or excessive submissions. These actions work even when usage statistics are off.

We save your vote and its game. Reports include the reason, note, game, time, interface language and general device type. Contact messages include the topic, text, time, language and any reply email you provide; email is optional. Only the administrator can see reports and messages, while rating totals are public. Do not send passwords, verification codes or sensitive information.

Contact messages do not trigger automatic email replies or notifications. If you supply a reply email, the administrator can use it to respond to your request. Clearing the cookie does not remove past votes, reports or messages. You can remove your vote on its game page while this browser still has its identifier.

Storage and privacy requests

Records are kept on the site to handle messages and reports, rank games and understand usage. Apart from the search and campaign retention described above, there is currently no automatic periodic deletion; a cookie expiring after 90 days does not delete its database records. Marking a message or report handled changes its status rather than deleting it.

You can make a request about your data through Contact. Include a message reference, or the game and approximate time, to help find the record. We may need more information to verify the request and may be unable to link anonymous records to you after the browser identifier is cleared. Private local backups contain snapshots that are not automatically changed retroactively.

Site administration and hosting

The wifi4flash administrator manages the library, messages and reports. Use Contact to reach the administrator or request a review of your data.

Cloudflare provides the hosting, file storage and database services selected for the public site. Requests pass through its servers, which may process IP addresses, connection information and technical logs to deliver and protect the service, separately from optional usage statistics. Administrator verification and account recovery emails are sent through Cloudflare to the administrator’s mailbox; the contact form does not send automatic emails.

Administration, games and services

The administrator account is separate from visitors and uses credentials, a secure session, email verification and optional device trust lasting up to 30 days. Administrator session records may include an IP address and browser information for security. These records protect site administration; they are not player accounts.

An individual game may contact outside services or use its own storage. The site statistics choice does not control those services; consult any information the game provides when using them.
