Privacy – Thistle Swarm
Controller: LeZo, Switzerland (legal notice: lezo.ch/impressum.html), info@lezo.ch. We follow the Swiss Data Protection Act (FADP) and, for visitors from the EU/EEA, the GDPR.
Playing the game
Thistle Swarm needs no account, login, chat or form. Your progress (seeds, unlocks, best runs, settings) is saved only in your own browser (local storage, key lezo_thistle_swarm). It is not sent to us. You can delete it any time by clearing site data for lezo.ch; this resets your progress.
Anonymous play count. When a run starts or ends, the game sends a short anonymous signal to our own server (game name, event, first/same-day/later visit, game language, rough session length). For this, only the date of your last start is kept in your browser (key lezo_zuletzt_thistle-swarm). If you arrive from a share link or a portal, the name of that source (one of three fixed values) is kept for this browser tab only (session storage, key lezo_von_thistle-swarm) and is deleted when you close the tab. No cookie, no IP address stored, no personal identifier.
No cookies for tracking, analytics or advertising, no third-party scripts or fonts on lezo.ch. We do not sell or share data.
Ads on portals
The version on lezo.ch contains no ads. On game portals (for example CrazyGames, Poki, Playgama) the game offers optional rewarded ads, shown only if you tap "Watch ad". The portal's own SDK shows them and is responsible for its data processing; see the portal's privacy policy. If no ad is available or an ad blocker is active, the game simply carries on. Ads are never required to play.
Server logs
When you load a page, our server briefly processes technical data (IP address, time, page, browser type) to deliver the page and keep it secure. Legal basis: FADP; for EU/EEA visitors Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Anonymous play-count totals are deleted after 24 months; error reports after 30 days.
Children
Thistle Swarm is not aimed at children under 13 and collects no personal data from players.
Your rights
You can ask for information, correction or deletion of your data at info@lezo.ch. You may also complain to the data protection authority.
If you play from the EU/EEA or UK: we process only the technical data described above, on the basis of our legitimate interest in running and securing the game (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The game stores nothing on your device beyond what it needs to work (progress, settings), so no cookie banner is needed. You can object, request access, correction or deletion at info@lezo.ch and complain to your local data protection authority. Data may be processed by Cloudflare outside the EU/Switzerland under standard contractual clauses.
