Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 15, 2026

Our Commitment

Netwalk is designed to be a simple, privacy-respecting puzzle game. We do not require accounts or collect gameplay data on our servers. Advertising is currently paused. Pages load Google's certified Privacy & messaging tag and do not load the Google advertising library or ad units. If advertising is enabled later, Google and authorized advertising partners may process device and online identifiers, including third-party cookies, as described below. The same points are repeated in Chinese.

Game data and information you choose to send

  • Personal identifiers: No registration information is required to play. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and the contents you send so we can address your request.
  • Location data: The game does not request precise device location. Hosting infrastructure may process IP addresses as described below.
  • Device information: We don't fingerprint your device or browser.
  • Game data: The current board and timer live in browser memory. Board-size preferences and personal best move counts can persist in local storage. The game does not send these to our servers. Sharing a score sends the text you choose to the selected service.

Third-Party Services

Cloudflare

Netwalk is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process basic technical information (such as IP addresses) to deliver and secure the website. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy for details.

The deployed site also requests Cloudflare's Web Analytics beacon from static.cloudflareinsights.com. This performance service can measure page views and browser loading metrics; it is separate from local game scores and board state. Cloudflare describes the service in its Web Analytics documentation. We do not claim that visiting the site makes no third-party requests.

Google Advertising Services

When advertising is active, Google and authorized advertising partners may use third-party cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and similar identifiers to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud, and, where you consent, personalize advertising. We do not send gameplay progress, local preferences, or account data to Google for advertising. Those advertising cookies are separate from the board-size preference stored in your browser.

Cookies and similar technologies

The game may save a board-size preference and personal best move counts in your browser's local storage. That storage stays on your device. The game does not send the current board to our servers.

If advertising is turned on later, Google and authorized advertising partners may set or read third-party cookies and similar identifiers, such as advertising IDs. Those technologies can deliver ads, limit how often an ad is shown, measure performance, and detect invalid traffic. Where the law requires a choice, they may also be used to build a profile for personalized ads. They are not used to store your Netwalk board or local best scores. No ad unit on this site sets those cookies today, because the advertising library is not loaded.

Cloudflare may process technical data, including IP addresses, to host and protect the site, and its Web Analytics beacon can measure page views. That service is separate from advertising cookies.

Personalized advertising

A personalized ad is selected with information about earlier activity, such as pages visited or ads interacted with, rather than only the page you are on. In the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland, that use needs a choice collected through a Google-certified consent management platform. You can refuse and still play. You can also turn personalized ads off, or review this kind of data, at Google Ads Settings. Visitors in the United States can use the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out at aboutads.info. Google describes data use on sites that use its services in the partner sites policy.

This site loads Google's certified Privacy & messaging tag so a published consent message can run. It does not load AdSense ad units. The message for the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland appears after that message is published in the AdSense Privacy & messaging screen. Until then, the tag does not by itself show a banner, and advertising stays off. When a message is shown, you can consent, refuse, or change the choice later from the message controls.

Children's Privacy

Netwalk is designed for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site, contact us and we will address it promptly.

隐私政策(中文)

下面是与上文同一份政策,不是另一套更短的规则。Netwalk 不要求注册,也不把对局进度存到我们的服务器。广告目前暂停。页面会加载 Google 认证的 Privacy & messaging(同意管理)标签,但不会加载 Google 广告库,也没有广告位。若以后开启广告,Google 及其授权的广告合作伙伴可能处理设备标识和在线标识,包括第三方 Cookie。具体范围如下。

游戏数据与你主动发送的信息

玩游戏不需要姓名、邮箱或账号。如果你发信联系我们,我们会收到你的邮箱和信的内容,用来处理这件事。游戏不读取精确的设备定位。托管服务可能处理 IP 地址,见下文的 Cloudflare。我们不做设备指纹。当前棋盘和计时器只在浏览器内存里。棋盘尺寸偏好和最佳步数可以留在本地存储,游戏不会把它们上传。分享成绩时,发出去的是你选择复制或提交的那段文字。

第三方服务

站点托管在 Cloudflare Pages。Cloudflare 可能处理 IP 地址等技术信息,用来投递和保护网站。详见 Cloudflare 隐私政策。已部署的站点还会向 static.cloudflareinsights.com 请求 Web Analytics 信标,用来统计页面浏览和加载情况。这项服务与本地成绩、棋盘状态无关。我们不声称访问本站不会产生任何第三方请求。

第三方 Cookie

棋盘尺寸和最佳步数若被保存,保存在你自己的浏览器本地存储里,留在设备上。当前棋盘不会因此发到我们的服务器。

如果以后开启广告,Google 和授权的广告合作伙伴可能设置或读取第三方 Cookie 以及类似的广告标识。这些技术可以用来投放广告、限制同一广告的出现次数、衡量效果、识别无效流量。在法律要求先征得选择的地区,它们也可能被用来形成画像并展示个性化广告。它们不用来保存 Netwalk 的棋盘或本地最佳步数。今天页面上没有广告位,因此没有广告单元在设置这类 Cookie。

个性化广告

个性化广告是依据你此前的活动(例如访问过的页面或与广告的互动)来挑选的广告,而不是只看你眼前这一页的内容。在欧洲经济区、英国和瑞士,这种使用需要通过 Google 认证的同意管理平台收集选择。你可以拒绝,并且仍然可以玩游戏。你也可以在 Google 广告设置 里关闭个性化广告,或查看相关数据。在美国,可以使用数字广告联盟的退出页面 aboutads.info。Google 对使用其服务的网站如何使用数据的说明,见合作网站政策。

本站加载的是 Google 认证的 Privacy & messaging 标签,用来在消息已发布时显示同意界面。本站不加载 AdSense 广告单元。欧洲经济区、英国和瑞士的同意消息,要等该消息在 AdSense 的 Privacy & messaging 界面发布之后才会出现。在那之前,单靠这个标签不会自己弹出横幅,广告也保持关闭。消息出现后,你可以同意、拒绝,或稍后在消息提供的控制里更改选择。

儿童、联系与变更

本站面向一般读者,不以 13 岁以下儿童为对象。我们不会故意收集儿童的个人信息。如果你认为有儿童通过本站提供了个人信息,请使用联系页或写信到 privacy@playnetwalk.com。政策若有更新,会改在本页并更换日期。使用网站还受使用条款约束。

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.

Use of the site is also governed by the Terms of Use.
