Mr. Solitaire

Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 22, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how Mr. Solitaire (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit or use mrsolitaire.com(the “Site”).

1. Information we collect

Information you provide

We do not require you to create an account to use the Site. If you choose to create an account (when this feature becomes available), we will collect your email address and a display name. We will never ask for payment information — the Site is free to play.

Automatically collected information

When you visit the Site, we may automatically collect certain information, including: your IP address (anonymized), browser type and version, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on pages. This information is collected through standard server logs and, where applicable, analytics cookies.

Local storage

We store your game state, scores, settings, and preferences in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device unless you are signed in and choose to sync. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate and improve the Site and its games.
  • Analyze usage patterns to understand which features are most valuable.
  • Display leaderboards and track daily challenge results (for signed-in users).
  • Respond to support requests.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal data to third parties, nor do we use your data to build advertising profiles for other platforms.

3. Cookies and tracking technologies

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies for the following purposes:

  • Essential cookies: Required for the Site to function (e.g., session management).
  • Analytics cookies: We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Plausible or Google Analytics with IP anonymization) to understand aggregate Site traffic.
  • Advertising cookies: We may display ads through third-party advertising networks such as Mediavine or Raptive. These networks may set their own cookies to serve relevant ads and measure ad performance. We do not control the cookies set by these networks.

You may opt out of non-essential cookies by adjusting your browser settings or by using the opt-out tools provided by the relevant ad networks. Note that opting out of advertising cookies does not mean you will see fewer ads — it means the ads will be less targeted.

4. Third-party services

The Site may use third-party services that have their own privacy policies. These may include hosting providers (Vercel), analytics services, and advertising networks. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these services directly.

5. Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR for EEA residents and CCPA for California residents):

  • Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data (“right to be forgotten”).
  • Opt-out of sale: We do not sell personal data, so this right is satisfied by default.
  • Data portability: Receive your data in a portable format.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the email address below. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

7. Data retention

We retain game scores and account data for as long as your account is active. Server logs are retained for 90 days. Anonymized aggregate analytics data may be retained indefinitely.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
