Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 10, 2026

1. Introduction

Sleik.is ("we", "us", "our") takes privacy and security seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and what rights you have under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR and Icelandic data protection legislation).

2. Data Controller and Contact

The data controller for sleik.is is the site operator.

• Email: [email protected]
• Website: sleik.is

3. Information We Collect

Depending on which parts of the site you use, we may collect:

• Account information (where applicable): Email address, display name/username, user identifiers, and login-related information (e.g., if you sign in with Google). We do not receive your password if you sign in via a third-party provider (such as Google/Firebase).
• Game and usage data: Scores, achievements, statistics, game history, settings (e.g., language, controls, audio), and other gameplay/progress data. Some games may show scores/statistics on leaderboards.
• Messages and feedback: If you contact us (e.g., via feedback forms or email), we collect the information you provide, such as your message, name (optional), and any attachments you submit (e.g., screenshots).
• Technical data: IP address, browser/device information, timestamps, basic diagnostics, and error logs. This is used for security, debugging, and improving performance.

4. How We Use Your Information

We use information to:

• Provide and maintain the service (games, settings, leaderboards where applicable)
• Manage accounts and authentication (where applicable)
• Enable multiplayer/leaderboards/challenges (where applicable)
• Respond to support requests, feedback, and bug reports
• Prevent fraud, misuse, and security incidents
• Analyze and improve user experience and site performance (often using aggregated data)

5. Legal Bases (GDPR)

We process personal data on one or more of the following legal bases:

• Contract: When processing is necessary to provide a service you request (e.g., an account, saving progress).
• Legitimate interests: To secure the service, prevent abuse, and improve reliability and performance.
• Consent: Where required (e.g., optional analytics cookies, if used).
• Legal obligation: Where we must comply with legal requirements.

6. Service Providers and Third Parties

We may use trusted service providers ("processors") to operate sleik.is. Where applicable, this may include Google/Firebase:

• Firebase Authentication: user login and authentication (including Google sign-in)
• Cloud Firestore / database services: storing user/game data (e.g., scores, statistics, challenges)
• Cloud Storage (if used): storing user-submitted attachments (e.g., screenshots in bug reports)

Google/Firebase may process data in the EEA and/or other locations depending on configuration and service operations. Google's Privacy Policy also applies: https://policies.google.com/privacy

7. Cookies and Local Storage

We use cookies and similar technologies as needed to:

• Essential functionality: keep you signed in (where applicable) and ensure core site functionality
• Preferences: store user preferences (e.g., language, control settings, audio)
• localStorage/sessionStorage: store settings and temporary game state on your device
• Diagnostics/analytics (if used): understand usage and improve the service

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but doing so may reduce functionality (especially login or certain game features).

8. Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell personal data and we do not share personal data for marketing purposes. Data may be shared or disclosed only:

• With other users (where applicable): your display name/username and scores/statistics may appear in games, challenges, or leaderboards.
• With service providers: when needed to operate the site (hosting, authentication, storage).
• When legally required: if required by law or valid legal process.

9. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above:

• Account and game data: typically for as long as your account is active or until deletion is requested.
• Support/feedback: as long as needed to handle the request and improve the service.
• Technical logs: for a limited time for security and debugging purposes.

If you request account/data deletion, we aim to complete the process as soon as possible—typically within 30 days, unless longer retention is required by law.

10. Security

We apply technical and organizational security measures to protect data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. Where we use third-party authentication providers (e.g., Firebase), authentication is supported by established security practices.

11. Children

Sleik.is is generally intended for users 13 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us at [email protected].

12. Your Rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Access your personal data
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
• Request deletion (subject to certain conditions)
• Restrict or object to processing in certain cases
• Data portability (where applicable)
• Withdraw consent at any time (where processing is based on consent)

To exercise your rights, contact us at [email protected].

You may also lodge a complaint with the Icelandic Data Protection Authority (Persónuvernd) if you believe your data protection rights have been violated.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the service evolves. Changes take effect when posted on this page. We encourage you to review it periodically.
