Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Dango Chains! Your privacy is very important to us. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of personal information that is collected and recorded by Dango Chains and how we use it.

Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal information.

Dango Chains is designed with your privacy in mind. The app:

  • Does not collect any personal data
  • Does not track your usage or behavior
  • Does not require an account or login
  • Does not share any information with third parties
  • Does not use analytics or tracking services

All your game progress, statistics, and preferences are stored locally on your device and are never transmitted to any server.

Third-Party Services

The Dango Chains app does not integrate with any third-party services that collect user data.

This Website

This website (not the app) uses Google Analytics to count visits, clicks on the App Store and Google Play buttons, and game events on the web puzzles: a puzzle started, finished (its difficulty, whether it was solved and the number of mistakes) or shared, and a board link made with “Make your own” (how many readings and meanings it has, never its words). Google Analytics sets cookies and receives standard web data such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type. It is not linked to the app and is not used for advertising. You can block it with any content blocker or the Google Analytics opt-out add-on; the puzzles work the same without it. See Google’s privacy policy for how Google handles this data.

Your progress stays in your browser. Results, your streak and settings such as furigana are kept only in your browser’s local storage. They are never sent to us, and clearing your browser data erases them. There are no accounts.

Custom boards live in their link. A board made with “Make your own” is written into the part of its link after the #, which browsers do not send to any server, and the site leaves that part out of the page address it reports to analytics. Nothing you type into the maker is uploaded or stored by us; an unfinished board is kept only in that browser tab until you close it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page.
