Welcome to viralballs.com ("we", "our", "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information that may be associated with your use of our website. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that data.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data to operate and improve our service:

• Analytics data: We use privacy-focused analytics to collect anonymous usage statistics such as page views, browser type, screen resolution, and approximate geographic location. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.
• Local storage data: Your simulation settings and presets are stored locally in your browser using localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
• Uploaded images: If you upload a custom ball image, it is processed entirely in your browser. We do not upload, store, or transmit your images to any server.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use analytics data solely to understand how people use our website so we can improve it. We do not sell, share, or transfer any collected data to third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Cookies and Tracking

We may use minimal cookies or similar technologies for analytics purposes. These do not track you across other websites and do not collect personal information.

5. Third-Party Services

We use third-party analytics services that may collect anonymous usage data. These services have their own privacy policies governing the data they collect.

6. Data Retention

Analytics data is retained in aggregate form. Since we do not collect personally identifiable information, there is no personal data to delete. Local storage data on your device can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.
