Privacy Policy and Legal Notices

Last updated: June 28, 2026

At Blindtus, we value your privacy and aim to provide transparency about how your data is handled. This page also includes important legal notices about the ownership and hosting of this website.

1. Privacy Policy

Playing Without an Account

Playing Blindtus does not require any registration or account. Players use the site anonymously: we do not ask for your name, email address, or any other personal information in order to play.

Analytics

We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly analytics tool, to understand how visitors interact with our site. Plausible collects only anonymous, aggregated data:

  • Number of visitors.
  • Pages visited.
  • Approximate country of origin.

Plausible does not use cookies or collect personal data. For more details, see Plausible's data policy.

Local Browser Storage

Some preferences and game data are stored locally in your browser (using localStorage):

  • solo mode progress and scores;
  • your preferences (e.g. audio volume).

This data never leaves your device, is not sent to any server, and can be cleared at any time by clearing your site data.

Cookies

Blindtus uses a limited number of cookies:

  • a functional cookie that remembers your language preference (lasting about one year);
  • session cookies only if you sign in to an administration account (see below).

We do not use any advertising or tracking cookies.

Administration Accounts

Access to the administration area is restricted to site administrators; no accounts are open to the public. For these accounts only, we use the better-auth authentication service and process:

  • the administrator's name and email address, along with an optional profile picture;
  • when signing in via Discord, Twitch, or Google, the authentication tokens provided by those providers;
  • for each session, the IP address and user-agent, for security purposes.

This data does not concern players. Emails related to these accounts (address verification, password reset) are sent through the third-party service Plunk.

Third-Party Services

To operate, Blindtus relies on third-party services that may process some technical data:

  • The Movie Database (TMDB) for movie and TV show information;
  • Cloudflare R2 for hosting media assets (images, posters);
  • Plausible (analytics) and Plunk (administration emails), mentioned above.

Use of Data

The data collected is used solely to:

  • operate and secure the website;
  • improve performance and the gameplay experience;
  • understand general usage patterns.

We do not sell or rent any data to third parties.

Your Rights

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, and port the personal data concerning you. Since players provide no personal data, these rights essentially apply to administration accounts. For any request, contact us at the address provided below.

Hosting

Blindtus is hosted by Hetzner Online GmbH, which complies with applicable data protection laws.
