Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 May 2026

1. Who we are

Flagga ("we", "us") is a free flag-guessing game available at flagga.online. Questions about this policy: flagorfail@gmail.com.

2. What we collect

We only collect what we need to run the game and the leaderboards:

  • Google account info (email address, account ID) — only if you choose to sign in with Google.
  • Username — chosen by you and shown on the global leaderboard.
  • Game scores — round scores, correct/incorrect counts, average answer time, timer length, and timestamps.
  • Local preferences — theme, local player name, and per-device stats stored in your browser (not sent to us unless you sign in and submit a score).

3. Why we use it

  • To run the game and show your stats back to you.
  • To power the global leaderboard.
  • To sync your username across devices when you sign in.
  • To prevent abuse (rate limits, blocking inappropriate usernames).

4. Legal basis (GDPR)

  • Consent — when you sign in with Google and submit scores to the global leaderboard.
  • Legitimate interest — basic anti-abuse measures (rate limiting, username moderation).

5. Third parties

  • Lovable Cloud — hosts our app and database (powered by Supabase infrastructure).
  • Google — provides OAuth sign-in. We never see your Google password.

We do not sell your data and we do not share it with advertisers.

6. Cookies & tracking

We do not use advertising cookies or third-party analytics. Sign-in and your preferences are kept in your browser's local storage.

On your first visit we show a short notice about this. Choosing "Accept" or "Reject non-essential" only records your choice — there are currently no non-essential cookies or trackers either way. To revoke your choice, clear site data in your browser or use "Reset Local Stats & Leaderboard" in Options.

7. Data retention

Your account, username, and scores are kept until you ask us to delete them. Local browser data stays on your device until you clear it or use "Reset Local Stats & Leaderboard" in Options.

8. Your rights

Under GDPR (and similar laws), you can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data. Email flagorfail@gmail.com and we will respond within 30 days.

9. Children

Flagga is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will remove it.

10. Changes

We may update this policy. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above.
