Privacy Policy
Built on respect for your privacy
Our Privacy Commitment
Stoneglow is built on a foundation of respect for user privacy. We believe that quality entertainment doesn't require extensive data collection, tracking, or surveillance. This Privacy Policy explains our minimal-data approach and how we protect what little information your use of our platform generates.
We've designed Stoneglow from the ground up to operate with minimal data collection, ensuring that you can enjoy our entertainment offerings without sacrificing your privacy or leaving extensive digital footprints.
What We Collect
Stoneglow collects an extremely limited amount of data. The only information we store is a simple indicator in your browser's local storage confirming that you've verified your age. This single piece of data prevents the age verification screen from appearing on every visit, improving your user experience.
We do not require or collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, physical addresses, payment information, or any other personally identifiable information. Stoneglow operates without user accounts or registration systems, allowing complete anonymity.
Local Storage Mechanics
The age verification indicator uses standard browser local storage technology. This data resides entirely on your device and never gets transmitted to our servers or any third parties. You control this data completely through your browser settings.
You can view and delete local storage data at any time through your browser's settings. Clearing local storage for Stoneglow will remove the age verification flag, requiring you to confirm your age again on your next visit, but has no other consequences.
Game Session Data
Information generated during gameplay – including virtual currency balances, game states, and settings – exists only temporarily in your browser's session storage. This data disappears when you close your browser or clear your cache.
Since Stoneglow operates without real money or user accounts, we have no reason to maintain persistent records of your gameplay. Each visit stands independent of previous visits, ensuring maximum privacy by design.
Third-Party Services
Stoneglow does not use third-party analytics, tracking, or advertising services. We don't employ cookies for tracking purposes, don't embed third-party scripts that monitor behavior, and don't share data with external companies because we don't collect data worth sharing.
The only external links on Stoneglow point to responsible gaming organizations like GambleAware, GamCare, and Gambling Therapy. These are independent websites with their own privacy policies. Once you click these links and leave Stoneglow, their privacy practices govern your interaction.
Security Approach
Stoneglow's security strategy centers on data minimization. The best way to protect data is to not collect it in the first place. Since we collect virtually no personal information, there's virtually no personal information at risk.
The minimal local storage we use benefits from your browser's built-in security features. We encourage you to keep your browser updated and practice good security habits on all devices you use to access the internet.
Children's Privacy
Stoneglow is designed exclusively for adults 18 years and older. We do not knowingly collect information from minors, though our collection practices are so minimal that age becomes largely irrelevant from a data perspective. Our age verification system provides a first line of defense against underage access.
Parents and guardians should monitor the online activities of children in their care. If a minor accesses Stoneglow, no persistent personal data is collected. Simply clearing browser local storage removes the age verification flag.
Policy Updates
Stoneglow may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in practices, legal requirements, or technological developments. Significant changes will be reflected in an updated version posted on this page.
Given our current minimal-data approach, future changes are more likely to further enhance privacy protections than to introduce new collection practices. Nevertheless, we encourage periodic review of this policy to stay informed.
Your Control
You have complete control over the minimal data footprint created by Stoneglow. Your browser settings provide straightforward tools for managing local storage. Clearing it removes the age verification indicator but has no other impact since we don't maintain accounts or profiles.
Because we don't collect personal information, there are no data portability requests to fulfill, no correction procedures to navigate, and no deletion protocols beyond simple browser cache clearing.
Global Access
Stoneglow welcomes visitors worldwide, and our minimal data collection approach aligns with strict privacy regulations across various jurisdictions. The local storage data we use remains on your device, subject to your device's security environment and local laws.
We don't transfer personal data internationally because we don't collect personal data to transfer. This approach simplifies compliance with data protection regulations while maximizing user privacy.
Questions
