Privacy Policy

Vectryn, an independent software brand operated by an individual developer ("we", "us", or "our"), operates vectryn.devand hosted Vectryn web games, including Neural Match 2.0, MoodyMazer, and Puzzlebinder (together, the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

1. Information We Collect

a) Analytics Data (automatically collected)

We use Vercel Web Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights to understand how visitors use the Site and hosted web games. Depending on the product, these tools may collect:

• Page URLs visited and referrer information
• Browser type, operating system, and device information
• Country-level or region-level location derived from requests
• Core Web Vitals and other performance metrics

Vercel states that Web Analytics stores anonymized data and does not use cookies, and that Speed Insights records anonymous performance data that is not tied to an individual visitor. For more detail, see the Vercel Web Analytics privacy documentation and the Vercel Speed Insights privacy documentation.

b) Game Data Stored On Your Device

Our browser-based games are local-first. Game progress, settings, scores, streaks, and similar gameplay data are stored in your own browser storage and are not uploaded to a Vectryn account or game server.

• Neural Match 2.0 stores level, score, RAM, upgrades, settings, unlocked lore, tutorial state, endless-mode state, max level reached, mute state, and personal bests under the key NEURAL_MATCH_SAVE.
• MoodyMazer stores mood log history, daily streak, virtual coin balance, unlocked cosmetics, achievements, equipped cosmetics, onboarding status, and app settings under the key moodymazer_data_v2. Its daily motivational insight is generated locally from the current date, mood type, and streak count; your mood selection is not sent to us or to an external AI service to generate that insight.
• Puzzlebinder stores your active puzzle, solution data needed for local play, selected puzzle settings, elapsed time, mistake and hint counts, first-run guide status, daily completion records, current and maximum streaks, last daily seed, and personal-best times under keys such as logicGridMaster_state, logicGridMaster_currentStreak, logicGridMaster_maxStreak, and pb_daily_*.

c) Sharing Features

Neural Match 2.0, MoodyMazer, and Puzzlebinder include optional result-sharing features. If you choose to share a result, your browser or operating system may pass the prepared share text to the app you select, or copy it to your clipboard. We do not receive that shared text unless you choose to send it to us.

d) Newsletter Email Addresses (when you subscribe)

If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address. We use this solely to send product updates, launch announcements, and relevant news about Vectryn. We will never sell or share your email with third parties for marketing purposes.

e) Information You Send Us Directly

If you contact us by email at hello@vectryn.dev, we receive the contents of that message and any information you voluntarily include.

2. How We Use Your Information

• Analytics data - to understand traffic patterns, improve site performance, and prioritise new features.
• Local game data - to let games resume progress, remember settings, calculate streaks, show personal bests, and support offline play on your own device.
• Email addresses - to send newsletters and product announcements. We will ask for your consent before sending anything, and you may unsubscribe at any time.
• Support emails - to respond to your enquiry.

3. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), we process your personal data under the following legal bases:

• Legitimate interests - for aggregated, anonymous analytics, hosting, security, performance monitoring, and font delivery where external fonts are used.
• Consent- for newsletter subscriptions. You may withdraw consent at any time by clicking "Unsubscribe" in any email we send.
• Contractual necessity - to fulfil requests you make, such as responding to support emails.

4. Cookies, Local Storage & Offline Cache

We do not use advertising cookies, Facebook Pixel, Google Analytics, or cross-site tracking pixels. Vercel Web Analytics does not use cookies. Google Fonts also states that its Fonts API does not set or log cookies. Our games do use local browser storage and PWA cache storage so they can save progress and work offline.

• Local Storage - the game data listed in section 1(b) stays on your device unless you choose to share it using a browser or operating-system sharing feature.
• Cache Storage - our Progressive Web Apps may cache HTML, scripts, styles, icons, manifests, and other static game assets through service workers so the games can load faster and continue working offline.
• Browser APIs - some games use local browser features such as Web Audio, speech synthesis, vibration, native share, clipboard, and web workers. These features run on your device and do not create a Vectryn account or upload your saved gameplay data to us.

You can clear this data through your browser's site-data, storage, or cache controls. Clearing it may reset game progress, streaks, preferences, and offline availability.

5. Data Sharing & Third Parties

We do not sell your personal data. We share information only with service providers who help us operate the Site:

• Vercel Inc. - website hosting, analytics, and performance monitoring.
• Google Fonts - Neural Match 2.0 and MoodyMazer currently load fonts from Google Fonts. When these font files are requested, Google receives technical information required to serve them, such as your IP address, the requested font URL, user agent, and referrer. Google states that it does not use information collected by Google Fonts to create end-user profiles or for targeted advertising.
• Email service provider - for newsletter delivery if and when the newsletter launches. The provider will be disclosed when the newsletter is active.

6. International Data Transfers

Vercel and Google operate infrastructure globally, including in the United States and the European Union. If you are located in the EEA, data may be transferred to and processed outside your country of residence. We rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

7. Data Retention

• Analytics data- retained by Vercel according to Vercel's applicable service settings and retention policies.
• Local game data - retained in your browser until you clear site data, reset the game where that option exists, or your browser removes it.
• Email addresses - retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion.
• Support emails - retained for up to 2 years for correspondence records, then deleted.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location you may have the right to:

• Access - request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
• Rectification - ask us to correct inaccurate data.
• Erasure - ask us to delete your personal data.
• Restriction - ask us to limit processing.
• Portability - request your data in a machine-readable format.
• Objection - object to processing based on legitimate interests.
• Withdraw consent - unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time with no penalty.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at hello@vectryn.dev. We will respond within 30 days. For local game data stored only in your browser, you can also clear the data directly through your browser.

9. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

10. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. The Site is served over HTTPS and includes security headers to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
