Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 29, 2025

Flagademy (https://flagademy.com) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it, particularly given the nature of our static website and the services we employ.

1. Who We Are

Flagademy is a website dedicated to helping you learn about flags and play engaging flag-related games.

• Website: https://flagademy.com
• Contact: contact@flagademy.com

2. The Information We DO NOT Collect or Store

Flagademy is a 100% static website. This means we do not have a server-side component to collect, store, or process any personal data from our users.

• No User Accounts: We do not offer user accounts, and therefore, we do not collect usernames, passwords, email addresses, or any other personally identifiable information for registration or login purposes.
• No Server-Side Tracking: We do not employ server-side tracking mechanisms or cookies to identify individual users or track their activity across sessions.
• No Personal Data Retention: We do not store any personal data about our users on our servers.

3. Information Stored Locally on Your Device (Local Storage)

Flagademy utilizes your web browser's local storage feature to enhance your experience and provide core functionality. This information is stored directly on your device and is not transmitted to us or any third parties.

The data we store in your local storage includes:

• Game Records: Your personal high scores and progress within the games. This allows you to track your achievements across sessions.
• User Preferences: Settings and filters you select (e.g., enabled filters when viewing the list of flags). This ensures your preferences are remembered when you refresh the page or return to the website.

This local storage data is entirely under your control. You can clear it at any time through your browser's settings. Please note that clearing this data will reset your game records and preferences on Flagademy.

4. Analytics (Simple Analytics)

We use Simple Analytics (https://simpleanalytics.com) to understand how our website is used and to improve its content and features. Simple Analytics is a privacy-first analytics service that is:

• Privacy-First: Designed with privacy as a core principle.
• EU-Based and Hosted: All data processing and hosting occurs within the European Union.
• No Cookies: Simple Analytics does not use cookies to track users.
• GDPR, PECR, CCPA Compliant: Simple Analytics is compliant by design with major privacy regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

Simple Analytics collects anonymous usage data, such as page views and referral sources, without identifying individual users. For more information on Simple Analytics' data collection practices, please refer to their privacy policy on their website.

5. Data Security

Given that we do not collect or store any personal data on our servers, the risk of data breaches related to personal information is eliminated. Your locally stored data is protected by the security measures of your own web browser and device.

6. Children's Privacy

Flagademy is intended for a general audience and is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13. As we do not collect any personal information, we inherently comply with regulations regarding children's online privacy, such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will post the updated Privacy Policy on this page with a revised "Effective Date." We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
