Your nickname and completion time may be displayed publicly on the leaderboard. Please avoid entering your real name, email address, or other personal information as your nickname.

Technical information, such as IP addresses, browser information, and request metadata, may also be processed by hosting providers when you access the Game or its services.

• Operate the Game and its features.
• Register and display leaderboard scores.

• Diagnose technical problems.
• Support advertising if advertising services are enabled.

4. Leaderboard and Public Scores

The Game includes an optional leaderboard.

When you submit a score, your chosen nickname and completion time are sent to a remote server for processing and storage.

Submitted leaderboard information may be visible to other players.

Leaderboard entries are not associated with user accounts.

If you wish to request the removal of a leaderboard entry, please contact us using the information provided below. We may request sufficient details to identify the relevant entry.

5. Hosting and Infrastructure

Crossing THAT River uses third-party infrastructure services.

The Game's frontend is hosted using Cloudflare Pages, provided by Cloudflare.

The leaderboard backend is hosted using Render.

These service providers may process technical information necessary to deliver requests, maintain security, and operate their infrastructure.

6. Browser Storage and PWA

Crossing THAT River may use browser storage technologies, including service workers and cached resources, to improve loading performance and support installation as a Progressive Web App (PWA).

Installing the Game is optional.

Certain features, including online leaderboards and advertising, require an internet connection.

You can remove locally stored website data through your browser settings. You can also uninstall the PWA using your device's application management options.

7. Advertising and Google AdSense

Crossing THAT River may display advertisements through Google AdSense or other advertising services in the future.

If advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies and similar technologies to serve advertisements.

Google and its advertising partners may use advertising cookies to display ads based on visits to this Game and other websites.

Depending on your location, consent preferences, and applicable law, advertisements may be personalized or non-personalized.
