Privacy Policy

Last updated: 31 October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how HappyChases Media Works (OPC) Private Limited (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles information when you visit Pocket Arcade and play its games (the “Website”). By using the Website you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.

1. Information we collect

1.1 Information you give us

The games do not have accounts, sign-up forms or chat. The only personal information we receive from you directly is what you choose to include if you email us, such as your email address and the contents of your message.

1.2 Information stored on your device

To remember your progress, the games save a few values in your browser's local storage: your best level, your coin total and whether sound is muted. This data stays on your device. It is never sent to us, and you can delete it at any time by clearing your browser's site data.

1.3 Information collected automatically

Like any website, our hosting and content providers receive technical information when your browser loads a page, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, the page requested and the time of the request. We use the following providers:

• GitHub Pages hosts the Website and may log visitor IP addresses for security purposes. See the GitHub Privacy Statement.
• Google Fonts serves the fonts on our menu and information pages. See the Google Privacy Policy.
• jsDelivr serves the open-source 3D graphics library used by our 3D games. See the jsDelivr Privacy Policy.

1.4 Advertising data

Our advertising partners collect information about the ads shown to you and how you interact with them, using cookies and similar technologies. See section 4.

2. How we use information

• To run the games and remember your progress on your device.
• To reply to messages you send us.
• To keep the Website secure and working properly.
• To show advertising that keeps the games free.
• To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell, trade or rent your personal information.

3. Legal basis for processing (EEA and UK visitors)

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on your consent for advertising cookies, on our legitimate interests for keeping the Website secure and working, and on legal obligation where the law requires us to process data.

4. Cookies, Google AdSense and advertising

We display third-party advertisements using Google AdSense, a service provided by Google LLC. Advertising revenue is how we keep the games free.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Website and/or other sites on the Internet.
• These cookies may also be used to limit how often you see an ad and to measure ad performance.
• We do not control which ads are shown, and we do not share your name, email address or other directly identifying information with advertisers.

Your choices

• Opt out of personalised advertising from Google at Google Ads Settings.
• Opt out of personalised advertising from other participating vendors at www.aboutads.info/choices or, in Europe, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
• Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
• Visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland are asked for consent through a Google-certified consent message before personalised ads are shown, and can change their choice at any time.
• You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The games will still work, but ads may be less relevant.

Summary of storage we use

5. Data retention

Emails you send us are kept only as long as needed to handle your request and meet legal obligations. Data stored in your browser stays there until you clear it. Data collected by Google and our hosting providers is retained under their own policies, linked above.

6. Data security

The Website is served over HTTPS. Because the games keep no accounts and store progress only on your device, we hold very little personal data. No method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect what we hold.

7. Your rights

Depending on where you live, including under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the GDPR, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you, to withdraw consent, and to complain to a data protection authority. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You can delete the game data on your device yourself by clearing your browser's site data.

8. Children's privacy

Pocket Arcade is a general-audience website and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and we do not knowingly allow personalised advertising to be served to them. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has sent us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

9. Third-party links

The Website links to other websites, including the privacy policies above. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites.

10. International transfers

Our service providers, including Google and GitHub, may process information in countries other than your own, including the United States. Those countries may have different data protection laws.

11. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted here, and the “Last updated” date above will change. Please check back occasionally.
