Information We Collect
We may process information necessary to operate the game and maintain a reliable service, including game and session information and standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, and request timestamps.

FingerprintJS / Game Session Identification
We use the open-source FingerprintJS library to generate a browser-based identifier for gameplay sessions. This helps us avoid unnecessarily serving puzzles you have already solved. We cannot personally identify you by your name or email address using this information.

Why We Collect This Information
Information may be used to operate ClueBolt, maintain game sessions, manage puzzle rotations, prevent duplicate puzzles, troubleshoot technical problems, maintain security and reliability, and understand and improve the game where applicable.

Browser Storage
We may use browser storage or similar client-side mechanisms to maintain game or session state and preferences.

Analytics and Usage Tracking
We use OpenPanel to understand how the website is used and to improve the game and user experience. OpenPanel operates without analytics cookies and does not store visitors' raw IP addresses. We may also send custom event information about interactions with ClueBolt. See the OpenPanel Privacy Policy ↗ for more information.

Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services necessary to operate the website and provide specific features, including hosting providers, OpenPanel, FingerprintJS, and payment or support services. These services operate under their own privacy policies and terms.

If you contact ClueBolt or voluntarily use a support or payment service, information you provide through that service may be processed by the relevant service provider. ClueBolt does not require this information to play the game.

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including operating the game, maintaining gameplay functionality, and troubleshooting.
