Privacy Policy

Trivia Castle respects your privacy. This policy explains the information that may be processed when you use TriviaCastle.com and how that information is used.

Information You Provide

You can play Trivia Castle without creating an account. If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to submit through the contact form, such as your name, email address, and message.

Game Data Stored in Your Browser

Trivia Castle may use browser storage, including local storage, to remember game-related information on your device. This can include questions you have seen, score or play counters, selected preferences, and similar gameplay settings. This information is generally stored in your browser rather than in a personal Trivia Castle account. Clearing your browser data or using a different browser or device may reset it.

Creator Mode, Camera, Microphone, and Recording

Creator Mode may ask your browser for permission to use a camera, microphone, screen, or tab when you choose those features. Permission is controlled by your browser and device. Trivia Castle does not require camera or microphone access for ordinary gameplay. Creator Mode recordings are designed to be created locally through your browser and are not automatically uploaded to Trivia Castle.

Automatically Collected Technical Information

Like most websites, our web host and WordPress installation may process standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, requested pages, timestamps, security events, and server logs. This information may be used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the site.

Cookies, Local Storage, and Caching

WordPress, our hosting environment, caching tools, and browser-based game features may use cookies or local storage that are necessary for site operation, security, performance, or preferences. See the Cookie & Local Storage Policy for more information.

Analytics

Trivia Castle currently uses StatCounter to help understand site traffic and usage. StatCounter is configured on Trivia Castle to mask IP addresses and not to use StatCounter cookies. StatCounter and the site’s hosting environment may still process limited technical information needed to provide analytics and operate the service, subject to their own policies.

Advertising

Trivia Castle may add advertising services in the future. If non-essential advertising cookies or similar technologies are introduced, this policy and the site’s consent controls will be updated as appropriate.

Affiliate Links

Trivia Castle uses affiliate links on some topic pages, game-related experiences, and other relevant content. Affiliate links may be routed through third-party affiliate networks such as Awin. If you follow an affiliate link, the affiliate network and merchant may receive referral or click information, including information contained in the link and standard technical information from your browser, under their own privacy policies. If you make a qualifying purchase or take another qualifying action, Trivia Castle may receive a commission or other compensation. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more information.

How Information Is Used

  • to operate, maintain, secure, and improve Trivia Castle;
  • to provide gameplay and remember browser-based preferences;
  • to respond to messages and support requests;
  • to detect abuse, spam, security problems, or technical failures;
  • to understand site performance and usage when analytics are enabled; and
  • to comply with legal obligations.

Sharing of Information

Trivia Castle does not sell your personal information. Information may be processed by service providers that help operate the site, such as hosting, security, caching, email, analytics, advertising, or affiliate-service providers, when those services are in use. Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights or safety, or prevent fraud or abuse.

Data Retention

Server logs, contact messages, security records, and similar operational information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Browser-stored gameplay data remains on your device until it expires, is replaced, or you clear it.

Children

Trivia Castle is a general-interest trivia site and is not designed to collect personal information from children. Children should not submit personal information through the contact form without appropriate permission.

Your Choices

You can clear cookies and local storage through your browser, deny camera or microphone permissions, reset Trivia Castle gameplay history when the game provides that control, and choose not to submit information through the contact form. Browser and device controls may also allow you to limit cookies or site permissions.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated when Trivia Castle changes its features, service providers, analytics, advertising, or legal requirements. The version published on this page is the current policy.
