Privacy Policy

A lightweight explanation of what Metal Gear Dle stores today and what should change if the project grows.

Essential Local Storage

Metal Gear Dle stores your guesses in your browser so the current daily run feels consistent while you play. That information is kept on your device, is not meant to identify you personally, and is cleared when the daily challenge rolls over at 6:00 AM in the game's configured timezone.

Public Chat

The chat saves a random identity in your browser and assigns it a four-character callsign. This identity stays between visits until you clear browser storage. Your callsign, messages, and message times are stored on the server, and messages are visible to anyone who opens the chat. Please do not share personal information.

A hash of your IP address is stored with messages to help limit spam. The chat uses a session cookie to protect message submissions. To report a message or request its removal, email contact@metalgeardle.com with the callsign and message time.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

The current version of the game is designed to stay simple. It does not depend on a heavy advertising stack to work. If cookies, analytics, ad measurement, or external monetization tools are introduced later, this page should be updated to explain what data is used, why it is collected, and what controls players have.

Future Consent Controls

If Metal Gear Dle later adds personalized ads, analytics, or third-party services that track behavior across sessions, players should be able to revisit those choices from a clearly visible privacy or consent settings link.

Contact and Project Links

For project updates, source code, or feedback, use the GitHub link in the footer. As the project evolves, this page can expand into a fuller policy with contact details, hosting information, and any third-party providers in use.
