Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 15, 2026

FlowTide ("we", "us", or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what limited data we collect when you visit and play games on flowtide.top (the "Service") and how it is used. We do not require accounts and do not sell personal data to third parties.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum data necessary to provide and improve our Service:

• Anonymous usage analytics — page views, device type, browser type, and aggregated play counts. This data cannot identify you personally.
• Local storage data — preferences such as sound settings, dark mode, and game favorites are stored locally in your browser and never transmitted to our servers.
• Third-party game frames — embedded games may set their own cookies as required for gameplay. We do not control or have access to these cookies.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information solely to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
• Analyze aggregate usage trends to enhance user experience
• Display relevant advertisements to support our free service
• Respond to your inquiries and support requests

3. Cookies & Advertising

We use the following categories of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for basic Service functionality (e.g., preferences, session state). These cannot be disabled.
• Analytics cookies — anonymized data to help us understand how visitors interact with the Service. You may opt out via your browser settings.
• Advertising cookies — used by third-party advertising partners, including Google, to serve personalized ads based on browsing behavior.

Google may use cookies to personalize ads. You can learn more about how Google uses data and opt out of personalized advertising by visiting:

• Opt out of Google personalized advertising
• Google partner sites policy

4. Data Retention & Deletion

Anonymous analytics data is retained for up to 26 months. Local storage data (preferences, favorites) remains on your device until you clear your browser data. Since we do not collect personal information on our servers, there is no server-side data to delete. You may clear local storage at any time through your browser settings.

5. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights:

• Right to access — request information about data we hold about you
• Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate data
• Right to erasure — request deletion of your personal data
• Right to data portability — receive your data in a structured format
• Right to object — object to processing of your data for specific purposes
• Right to restrict processing — limit how we use your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including HTTPS encryption for all data transmission and access controls on our systems. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

FlowTide hosts a kid-friendly section. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected].

8. Third-Party Services

Our Service contains links to third-party sites and embedded games. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through our platform.

9. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature. Our Service currently does not respond to DNT signals, as there is no industry standard for how to interpret them. You may opt out of personalized advertising through the links provided in Section 3 above.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
