Privacy Policy (PIPEDA & Quebec Law 25)

QUICK FIELD BRIEFING

Plain-Language Summary

Here is the short version of how MuskegMaze (muskegmaze.org) handles your privacy, written so anyone—from a teenager exploring browser games to a parent or privacy regulator—can read it in under a minute:

Zero tracking or cookies: We do not use cookies, analytics scripts, advertising pixels, or local storage. Nothing is saved on your phone, tablet, or computer when you read our guide.
No accounts or sign-ups: You never have to create an account, enter your name, or share personal profile details to browse MuskegMaze.
Standard server security logs only: Like every website on the internet, our web server automatically records basic technical request details (We keep no visitor logs of our own. To deliver and protect the site, Cloudflare processes technical request data: IP address, time of the request, the page requested, and browser and device type.) for a short time (We keep no server logs. Cloudflare keeps request data only for as long as its privacy policy (cloudflare.com/privacypolicy) sets out for security and network operations.) solely to deliver the pages to your browser and defend the site against cyberattacks.
Emails are only used to reply: If you choose to email us, we use your message and email address only to answer your question, and then we delete the correspondence. If you are under 13 in Canada (or under 14 in Quebec), please ask a parent or guardian before sending us an email.
External games have their own rules: When you follow an official game link from our guide, you leave MuskegMaze and visit that game publisher's own website, which operates under its own privacy policy.

2. No Cookies, No Analytics, No Tracking, and No Third-Party Requests

MuskegMaze is engineered for strict data minimization and complete reader privacy:

No cookies or local storage: We do not set first-party or third-party cookies, and we do not write data to your browser's localStorage, sessionStorage, or IndexedDB. Nothing is stored on your device when you visit our site.
No analytics or behavioural tracking: We do not run visitor analytics, heatmaps, session recorders, fingerprinting scripts, or advertising networks.
No silent third-party requests: All stylesheets, fonts, illustrations, and video assets are self-hosted directly on our domain. Your browser does not make automatic background requests to third-party servers when loading our pages.

3. Technical Server Logs & Cross-Border Processing

When your browser requests a page or image from muskegmaze.org, our infrastructure provider (Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The site is delivered from Cloudflare's global network, including data centres outside the UK and Canada; Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension.) automatically generates routine technical server log entries.

What server logs record: We keep no visitor logs of our own. To deliver and protect the site, Cloudflare processes technical request data: IP address, time of the request, the page requested, and browser and device type..
Why they are recorded: These technical records are strictly necessary to deliver web pages and artwork to your device, diagnose server errors, and protect the website against automated abuse, denial-of-service attacks, and unauthorized access. We never use server logs to profile visitors or attempt to identify individuals.
How long they are kept: Server logs are retained for We keep no server logs. Cloudflare keeps request data only for as long as its privacy policy (cloudflare.com/privacypolicy) sets out for security and network operations., after which they are automatically overwritten or permanently deleted.
Hosting provider & processing outside Canada or Quebec: Our website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The site is delivered from Cloudflare's global network, including data centres outside the UK and Canada; Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension.. Because internet routing and cloud edge servers operate globally, technical log data may be processed or stored on servers located outside your province (including outside Quebec) or outside Canada. Whenever technical data is handled outside your jurisdiction, it may be subject to the lawful access laws of those countries, while remaining protected under our strict retention limits and contractual security safeguards.

4. Emails You Choose to Send & Guidance for Young Visitors

MuskegMaze has no comment sections, user forums, or contact forms. The only way we receive personal information directly from you is if you voluntarily send an email to [Contact email].

How we handle your email: If you write to us, we use your email address and the contents of your message solely to read and reply to your inquiry or process your privacy request.
Deletion after resolution: Once your question or request has been answered and resolved, we delete the email thread unless we are legally required to keep a record of an official privacy complaint or statutory request.
Important note for young visitors: While our editorial guide is written for players aged 16 and older, anyone under 13 in Canada—or under 14 in Quebec—should ask a parent or legal guardian for permission before sending an email to us. If we learn that a child under these ages has emailed us without parental consent, we will delete the message and address immediately.

5. Outbound Links to Official Game Publishers

MuskegMaze is an independent Canadian field guide that reviews and compares browser games (Hexanaut.io, Splix.io, Powerline.io, Curve Fever Pro, Little Big Snake, Slither.io, Florr.io, and Agar.io). Every featured game unit includes a clearly marked button linking to that game's official website.

When you click an outbound link to visit an official game site, you leave muskegmaze.org. Those external game websites are operated by independent developers and publishers, not by us. Each game website has its own privacy policy, terms of use, cookie practices, and account rules. We encourage you to check our compact facts strip on each game card (which notes ads, accounts, and chat) and to read the publisher's privacy policy on their site before playing.
