At Artzy, we are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about the technologies we use. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and store information when you use our website.

1. Gameplay Data & Use of LocalStorage

Artzy uses localStorage, a browser-based storage technology, to enhance your gameplay experience. This data is stored entirely on your device and is not transmitted to our servers or shared with third parties.

What We Store:

• Your current and past guesses
• The number of guesses used per game
• Your win/loss history and streaks
• Incorrect answers submitted
• Your gameplay history by date

This information is used solely to enable features like daily challenges, game progress tracking, and personalized gameplay statistics. You may reset your data at any time using the “Reset My Stats” feature.

2. Website Analytics with Matomo (Cookie-less)

We use Matomo Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Matomo is configured in a privacy-friendly, cookie-less mode, meaning:

• No cookies are placed in your browser
• No personally identifiable information is collected
• Your IP address is anonymized before storage
• Data is used only in aggregate for site improvement

Because of this configuration, our use of Matomo complies with GDPR, PECR, and similar privacy regulations and does not require a consent banner.

If you wish to Opt-Out from Matomo tracking, please uncheck the box below.

Opt-out complete; your visits to this website will not be recorded by the Web Analytics tool. Note that if you clear your cookies, delete the opt-out cookie, or if you change computers or Web browsers, you will need to perform the opt-out procedure again.

You may choose to prevent this website from aggregating and analyzing the actions you take here. Doing so will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and creating a better experience for you and other users.

You are not opted out. Uncheck this box to opt-out. You are currently opted out. Check this box to opt-in.

The tracking opt-out feature requires cookies to be enabled.

3. Amazon Affiliate Links

Artzy is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

When you click on an Amazon link on our site and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.

Please note that Amazon may use cookies or other tracking technologies to process affiliate referrals. We do not control how Amazon collects or uses your data. For more information, refer to Amazon’s Privacy Notice.

4. Your Rights

If you are located in the EU or another jurisdiction with privacy laws, you may have the right to:

• Access the data we may have about you (if any)
• Request correction or deletion of your data
• Object to data processing for analytics or tracking

As Artzy does not store personal data on its servers, most requests can be handled locally by resetting your gameplay stats or disabling analytics through your browser settings.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
