Privacy policy

This page explains what WishGame stores about you and why. We keep it to what the site needs to work.

What we store

Your email address, so you can sign in. If you sign in with Google we also receive your Google account ID and the name on that account.

The display name you choose, and what you post: wishes, votes, comments, likes, reports, and game submissions.

A scrambled (hashed) form of your IP address, kept for up to 24 hours, to limit spam and vote abuse.

What is public

Your display name, your wishes, and your comments are visible to everyone. Your email address is never shown to other users.

Cookies

We set one cookie that keeps you signed in and one that remembers your language. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

When you sign in we may run Cloudflare Turnstile, a check that tells people from bots. It is provided by Cloudflare and works without tracking you across sites.

Email

We email you sign-in codes. We also email you when a wish you posted changes status, or when a game you submitted is reviewed. You can turn the wish emails off under My wishes.

Games

Games run in a frame from a separate web address. A game cannot read your WishGame account or your email address. A game may keep its own save data in your browser.

Where it is kept

The site and its database run on Cloudflare. Sign-in emails are sent through an email delivery provider, which receives your email address in order to deliver the message.

Your choices

You can change your display name at any time under My wishes.

You can delete your account there too. This removes your profile, votes, comments, and wishes that are still collecting votes. Wishes that were already picked or built stay on the site without your name.

Children

WishGame is not meant for children under 13. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will remove it.

Changes

If this policy changes we will update the date at the top of this page.
