Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026.

This Privacy Policy explains what information CountryGame ("we", "us") collects when you visit countrygame.live, how it is used, and the choices you have. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

We do not ask you to create an account and we do not knowingly collect personal information you don't choose to give us. When you use the contact form, we receive the name, email address and message you submit, solely to reply to you. Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools automatically receive standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device, and the pages you visit.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for two purposes: (1) to understand how the site is used so we can improve it, and (2) to show advertising that keeps the site free. You can control cookies through the consent banner shown on your first visit and through your browser settings. Blocking non-essential cookies will not stop you from using the site.

Advertising

This website uses Google AdSense, a web advertising service provided by Google LLC. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.

  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info.
  • For more information on how Google collects and uses data, see Google's Privacy Policy.

For visitors in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, we request consent for advertising and analytics cookies before they are set, in line with applicable law, using a consent management mechanism.

Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Google Analytics) to measure aggregate traffic and improve content. This data is used in aggregate and is not used to personally identify you.

Third-party data sources

Statistical and reference data shown on the site (population, GDP, HDI, capitals, flags and country facts) is obtained from third parties including the World Bank, the UNDP, the REST Countries API and other open datasets. We present it for general information only and make no warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you (for example, a message you sent via the contact form). To make a request, email hello@countrygame.live.

Children

CountryGame is a general-audience educational site and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
