By using our website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of our website immediately.
2. Information We Collect
We collect minimal information to operate and improve our services:
- Cookies and Usage Data: We use cookies (small text files stored on your device) to analyse traffic, personalise ads, and improve user experience. This includes information about your browser type, operating system, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs.
- Ad-Related Data: Google AdSense, our advertising partner, may collect data about your visits to this and other websites to serve relevant advertisements. This includes device identifiers, IP addresses, and browsing behaviour.
- Game Interaction Data: Our guessing games run entirely in your browser (client-side JavaScript). No game data (breeds selected, answers given, game results) is transmitted to or stored on our servers.
3. How We Use Your Information
The information we collect is used for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve our website and games
- To display personalised advertisements via Google AdSense
- To analyse website traffic and user behaviour patterns
- To detect and prevent fraudulent or abusive usage
- To comply with legal obligations
4. Google AdSense and DoubleClick DART Cookie
We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on our website. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites on the internet.
Google's use of the DART cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ad and Content Network Privacy Policy.
5. Your Choices Regarding Cookies

6. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services on our website:
- Google AdSense — for displaying advertisements. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.
These third-party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use your information. We encourage you to review their policies.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
Important: Because our guessing games run entirely client-side (in your browser using JavaScript), no game data — including the breeds you think of, the answers you give, or the game results — is ever transmitted to our servers or stored. This means your gameplay is private by design.
8. Children's Privacy
Our website is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will promptly delete it. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
