BorealBay respects your privacy. We collect minimal information and we explain clearly what we do with it.
BorealBay is a free social game. We do not monetise your personal data. This policy explains what technical information we collect, why we need it, and how you can request its deletion. Last updated: 21 May 2026.
When you visit BorealBay, our web server records basic technical information: your IP address, the browser and device type you are using, which pages you visited, and roughly when. This is standard server-log data. We do not attach this data to any personal profile. It exists to help us identify problems with the site and understand general traffic patterns.
BorealBay does not collect your name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, or payment information. There is no registration form. There is no account system. We do not know who you are and we have no mechanism to find out.
The age confirmation you complete at the beginning of each session is stored only in your browser's local storage, on your own device. It is not transmitted to us. It exists solely to avoid showing you the age gate again on the next visit.
We use browser local storage — not server-set cookies in the traditional tracking sense — to remember two things: that you have confirmed you are 18+, and whether you have accepted or declined the cookie notice. Both of these exist to avoid interrupting your experience on repeat visits.
We do not use advertising cookies. We do not use cross-site tracking cookies. We do not participate in cookie-based remarketing or behavioural targeting of any kind. If you clear your browser's local storage, these small records are removed and the age gate and cookie notice will reappear on your next visit — this is expected behaviour.
Should you choose to accept analytics cookies via the cookie banner, a lightweight analytics service may collect anonymised page-view data. This data cannot identify you personally. If you decline, no analytics data is collected.
BorealBay does not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes. Period. We do not have affiliate relationships with gambling operators. We do not share data with data brokers.
We use Google Fonts and a CDN for Bootstrap. These services may log your IP address when they serve these files. Their privacy policies apply to those interactions. We have implemented a Consent Mode default (all denied) to prevent these services from running analytics or advertising scripts before you have given consent.
The responsible-gaming organisations listed in our footer (Gamblers Anonymous, GambleAware, Gambling Therapy, Gambling Guidelines Canada) are independent organisations. Clicking their links takes you to their websites, which have their own privacy policies. We link to them as a public service, not as commercial partners.
Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA) and, where applicable, GDPR, you have the right to know what data we hold about you, to request a copy of it, and to request its deletion. Because we collect only anonymous technical logs and do not link them to identities, we typically cannot retrieve records specific to you — but we will investigate and respond to any request.
To exercise any of these rights, or to ask any question about how your data is handled, email us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. If you are based in the EU and are unsatisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.
Because our data collection is minimal by design, most privacy requests are simple to address. We do not have a database of user profiles to search, which means the work involved in responding is usually very small.
