Cookies and Similar Technologies
WhereIsWaldoGame.com may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies.
These technologies are small pieces of information stored on your device that can help a website remember certain settings or understand how visitors use its pages.

We may use analytics services to understand how visitors use WhereIsWaldoGame.com.
Analytics can help us answer questions such as which pages are visited most often, which devices visitors use, how users move through the website, and whether particular pages have technical problems.
This information helps us make practical improvements to the website and its content.
If an analytics provider is used, that provider may process certain technical and usage information according to its own privacy policy and terms.
Advertising
WhereIsWaldoGame.com may display advertisements through third-party advertising providers.
If advertising services such as Google AdSense are enabled, advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to provide, measure, or personalize advertisements.
Depending on your location, advertising may be personalized or non-personalized based on the choices available to you.
Third-party advertising providers operate independently from WhereIsWaldoGame.com and may process information according to their own privacy policies.

Information collected through the website may be used for reasonable purposes related to operating and improving WhereIsWaldoGame.com, including:
- Providing and maintaining the website
- Responding to contact requests

We do not use personal information for purposes that are unrelated to the reason it was collected without an appropriate legal basis or, where required, your consent.
How We Share Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information.
Information may be shared with service providers when it is reasonably necessary to operate the website. For example, third-party providers may help with hosting, analytics, security, email communication, advertising, or other technical services.
These providers may process certain information as part of providing their services.
We may also disclose information where we believe it is reasonably necessary to comply with a legal obligation, respond to a lawful request, protect the rights or safety of users, investigate abuse, or protect the security and integrity of the website.
Third-Party Services and Links
Some parts of the website may rely on third-party services or contain links to websites operated by other companies.
For example, a page may link to an external website, display third-party advertising, or use an external service for analytics or other functionality.
Once you leave WhereIsWaldoGame.com, the privacy practices of that third-party website or service are outside our control. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any external service before providing personal information.
Game and Image Features
Some features of the website allow you to interact with puzzle images directly in your browser.
Where a feature is designed to process an image locally on your device, the image may be handled by your browser without being uploaded to our servers. However, this can depend on the particular feature and the technologies used to provide it.
If a feature requires an image or other information to be sent to a third-party service, the website should make that clear before the information is submitted.
For this reason, you should always check the instructions provided with an individual tool before uploading personal photographs or other private material.
Copyright and Third-Party Content
WhereIsWaldoGame.com may contain game artwork, images, references, or other material that may be associated with third-party rights holders.
We do not claim ownership of trademarks or copyrighted material belonging to others.
Nothing in this Privacy Policy grants permission to use third-party copyrighted material. If you believe material available on the website infringes your copyright or other rights, please contact us with enough information for us to review the matter.
We will consider legitimate complaints and take appropriate action where necessary.
Data Retention
We do not keep personal information indefinitely when there is no continuing reason to retain it.
The length of time information is retained depends on why it was collected. For example, contact messages may be kept for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the request, maintain records, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations.
Technical, analytics, or advertising information may be retained according to the policies of the relevant service providers.
Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information handled through the website.
These measures may include technical safeguards, access controls, secure connections, and other practices appropriate to the type of information being handled.
However, no website, online service, or method of transmitting information over the internet can guarantee complete security. For this reason, we cannot promise that information will always be completely protected from every possible security incident.
