2. Information We Collect & How It Is Used
① Browser Local Storage
Trick Card Games uses your browser's local storage (localStorage) strictly to preserve non-identifiable gaming preferences, including:
- Visual theme preference (Light or Dark mode via tricklobby-theme);
- Sound volume toggle, animation speed, and local win/loss records;
- Selected interface language preference.
This information remains entirely within your client browser. It is never transmitted to our servers or sold to third parties. You can clear it at any time by wiping your browser site data.
② Standard Log Files
Like most websites, Trick Card Games utilizes standard server log files. These logs record IP addresses, browser types, timestamps, referring pages, and click data. These data points are not linked to any personally identifiable information and are used solely for diagnosing technical problems, preventing abuse, and measuring traffic.
Optional anonymous gameplay analytics
If site analytics are enabled, Trick Card Games sends page views and aggregate gameplay milestones to Plausible: game opened, first bid, first hand completed, match completed, next-day return, and mode selected. Events include the game mode and page language, but no cards, bids, scores, account IDs, or names. Analytics are disabled when the service is not configured.
