Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 26, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to playSCL.com ("playSCL," "we," "us"). We value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have when you use our website and services.

2. Information We Collect

• Personal Information: We collect your email address and any other information you choose to give us, such as your name. This data is stored in our database, hosted by our web host, Fullhost.
• Source Code: When you create a game, you create and edit source code that runs your game. This data is stored by us and by our third-party storage provider, Cloudflare.
• Uploaded Files: Files you upload to the site may be stored and reviewed to help us improve our services and support your use of the platform. If a file is used in a game you publish, it will be visible to other visitors of the site. This data is stored by us and by our third-party storage provider, Cloudflare.
• IP Address: We collect your IP address to help diagnose server problems, administer our website, and analyze usage trends.
• Cookies: We use cookies that are necessary to run the site, such as keeping you logged in and remembering your session. We may also use third-party cookies for analytics, and in the future for advertising. See Section 5 below for details.

3. Children's Privacy

playSCL is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at the address below and we will delete that information promptly.

4. Use of Information

We use the information we collect to provide, maintain, and improve our services. Specifically, we use it to:

• Review uploaded files to improve our services and support your use of the platform.
• Showcase games you create to other users.
• Analyze and understand how our website is used.
• Diagnose and fix technical problems, and keep the site secure.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for a few purposes:

• Essential cookies: required for core site functionality, such as staying logged in. These can't be turned off without breaking basic site features.
• Analytics cookies: help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
• Advertising cookies: we do not currently show ads, but we may in the future work with third-party ad or analytics providers who use cookies for that purpose. If this changes, we will update this policy and, where required by law, ask for your consent.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not work properly without essential cookies.

6. Sharing of Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share information only in these cases:

• With service providers who help us run the site, such as our web host (Fullhost) and our storage provider (Cloudflare).
• If a third-party service is embedded in a game you choose to create or publish.
• If required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of playSCL or others.
• As part of a business transfer, as described in Section 9 below.

7. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including encryption for data in transit and access controls on our servers. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we can't guarantee absolute security.

8. Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your personal information for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide our services. You can request deletion of your account and associated personal data at any time by contacting us at the address below, and we will process your request promptly. Content you have published publicly (such as games or files used in games) may need to be handled separately, since it may be part of content shared with or copied by other users.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete the data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below and we will respond as required by applicable law.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the updated policy on this page and update the effective date above.

11. Sale of Business

If playSCL is sold, merged, or otherwise transferred to another company, your information may be transferred to the new owner so that the service can continue operating.
