This Privacy Policy describes how ChipMonk Poker ("we", "us", "ChipMonk") collects, uses, and discloses information when you visit chipmonk.fun (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

Information you provide

ChipMonk does not require an account, and we do not ask for personally identifying information such as your name, email address, or phone number. The Site does not include account creation, user profiles, or messaging features.

Information stored locally on your device

To remember your game progress, we store small amounts of data in your browser's local storage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to us. It includes:

Your play-money chip balance
Game statistics (hands played, hands won, biggest pot, etc.)
Daily quest progress
Your settings (sound, table difficulty, game speed)
Daily login bonus and rewarded-ad cooldown timestamps

You can clear this data at any time by using the "Reset all data" button in the in-game settings menu, or by clearing your browser's site data.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically log technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and pages viewed. This data is used to operate the Site and to detect abuse.

Cookies and similar technologies

The Site itself does not set first-party tracking cookies. However, our advertising partners (see below) may set cookies and similar technologies on your device to deliver and measure advertisements.

Advertising

ChipMonk is funded by advertising. We work with the following advertising partners:

Google AdSense — Google may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to show personalized ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info/choices.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits.

Children

ChipMonk is intended for users 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has used the Site, please contact us so we can remove any associated locally-stored data instructions.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the following rights regarding your information:

EU/UK (GDPR): right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, port, or object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent at any time.
California (CCPA/CPRA): right to know what personal information is collected, request deletion, opt out of sale or sharing of personal information, and non-discrimination.

Because we do not collect or store personal information on our servers, most of these rights are exercised by clearing your browser's local data. For requests directed at our advertising partners, please use the opt-out links above.

EU/UK consent for ads

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you will be presented with a consent banner before personalized advertising is enabled. You may decline personalized ads at any time. If you decline, you will still see ads, but they will not be personalized to you.

Data security

We use commercially reasonable measures to protect the Site. Because we do not store personal information on our servers, the security of your locally-stored game data depends on your device and browser.

Third-party links

The Site may contain links to other websites (such as real-money gaming partners). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent change. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
