1.1 Automatically Collected / Non-Personal Data
We collect certain data automatically when you visit or use our site, including:

Operating system and device type
-
Pages visited, time spent, and navigation paths
-
Date and time stamps
-
Referrer URL (which site sent you here)

Other usage metrics (e.g. clicks, interactions)
This data is non-personally identifying, meaning it doesn’t reveal your name or identity by itself. We use it to understand how users play the game, and improve performance and features.
1.2 Analytics Data & Cookies
We use Google Analytics to measure usage and behavior:
-
Google Analytics places cookies (e.g.
_ga,_gid) in your browser to distinguish unique users and sessions. -
Through those cookies, we can learn how many people visit, which pages are most popular, how users move through the site, etc.
-
The data collected is aggregated and anonymized; we don’t use it to identify individuals by name.
Because of this, yes, we are collecting cookies when Google Analytics is enabled.
1.3 Advertising & Cookies via Ad Platforms
When we use Google AdSense or other ad services, their systems may also place cookies or similar identifiers to:
-
Determine which ads you see.
-
Measure ad performance.
-
Serve more relevant (targeted) ads.
Those are usually third-party cookies (from Google or ad partners).
1.4 Voluntary Information / Contact Forms
If in future we provide forms (e.g. for feedback, support, newsletters), and you voluntarily supply information (name, email, message), we may collect that. We will clearly label those as optional in those forms.
We do not require you to submit personal information to play the game.

-
To provide, maintain, and enhance the Spellix Bee experience

-
To monitor site performance, detect errors or issues, and improve stability

To serve ads (through Google AdSense) and measure ad performance

3. How We Share Information

Using encryption (HTTPS)

Limiting access to data only to those who need it
