Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 21, 2026

Witch Town is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use our website at www.playwitchtown.com and our online game at game.playwitchtown.com.

1. Data Controller

The Witch Town service is operated by the Witch Town team.

• Email: hello@playwitchtown.com
• Website: www.playwitchtown.com
• Game: game.playwitchtown.com

2. Scope of This Policy

This policy covers:

• Marketing site (www.playwitchtown.com) — landing pages, blog, and legal pages.
• Game client (game.playwitchtown.com) — matchmaking, rooms, gameplay, replays, profiles, shop, and related features.

If you only browse the marketing site, we collect less information than when you play the game.

3. Information We Collect

We may collect the following types of information:

Account and profile data

• Display name (town name)
• Guest or member account identifiers
• Account type (guest or registered member)
• Email address, if you create or use a member account
• Avatar and wardrobe selections, profile preferences, and achievement progress

Gameplay data

• Match sessions, room codes, role assignments, card actions, and match outcomes
• Replay data and settlement records
• In-game chat or messages visible to other players during a session
• Quick Play, private room, and Academy tutorial activity

Device and technical data

• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• IP address and connection metadata needed to run real-time multiplayer
• Session tokens and authentication data
• Error, crash, and performance logs used for debugging and reliability

Voice and media preferences

• Voice narration (TTS) is opt-in. We do not enable voice by default.
• Captions are available independently of voice settings.
• Audio preference settings (voice, SFX, ambience) may be stored locally in your browser.

Cookies and analytics

• Essential cookies or local storage needed to keep you signed in and remember preferences
• Analytics data, if enabled, to understand site usage and improve the service

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain the game and website
• Match you into rooms, run authoritative game state, and deliver replays
• Save progress, achievements, wardrobe items, and profile data for member accounts
• Improve gameplay balance, fix bugs, and develop new features
• Respond to support requests and communicate with users
• Ensure safety, security, fair play, and abuse prevention
• Comply with legal obligations

5. Legal Basis for Processing

Where applicable, we process personal data based on:

• The necessity to perform our contract with you (providing the game)
• Our legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the service
• Compliance with applicable legal obligations
• Consent, where required by law (for example, optional analytics or marketing communications)

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with:

• Service providers — trusted third parties such as Cloudflare that help us host, secure, store, and deliver the service (Workers, Durable Objects, D1, R2, and related infrastructure)
• Legal authorities — when required by law, regulation, court order, or legal process
• Other players — limited in-game information such as display names, table avatars, and messages visible during gameplay

7. International Data Transfers

Witch Town uses a global infrastructure, including Cloudflare’s network. Your data may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions outside your country of residence, including the United States and other regions where our service providers operate.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary to:

• Provide the service
• Comply with legal obligations
• Resolve disputes and enforce our agreements
• Maintain safety, debugging, and abuse-prevention records

Guest account data may be more limited and less persistent than member account data. Gameplay logs, match records, and chat messages may be retained for a limited period for safety, replay, and debugging purposes.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your data
• Object to or restrict certain processing activities
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Request a portable copy of certain data, where applicable

To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@playwitchtown.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request.

10. Children’s Privacy

Witch Town is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe we have collected such data, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

11. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including access controls, encrypted transport, and infrastructure protections provided by our hosting partners. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Marketing Site vs. Game

Reading this policy or our blog does not require an account.

13. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the website and game client, maintain sessions, and remember preferences. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Analytics data, if collected, is used in aggregate form to improve the service.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
