Legal notice and privacy

Sport Minigames at sport-minigames.com is run from Switzerland. There are no accounts and no names to enter; your progress stays in your browser and only anonymous scores are compared. This page says who runs the site, what happens with your data and what ads and cookies mean here.

Legal notice (Impressum)

Responsible for this website and the content published on it:

Playmakerz is not registered in the commercial register and not liable for VAT. It therefore has no Swiss business identification number (UID) yet; it will be added here once it exists.

Contact

For anything about the games, the website or this legal notice, the easiest way is an e-mail to info@playmakerz.ch. We reply as soon as we can. Who makes the site and where the numbers come from is on About.

Sport Minigames is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by any league, federation, club or athlete named in the games (for example the NFL, UEFA, FIS, Formula 1 or the NCAA). Names of teams, competitions and people are used only to describe the puzzles; all trademarks belong to their owners.

Privacy policy

Information under Art. 19 of the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, for visitors in the EEA and the UK, Art. 13 GDPR. Last updated: 2 November 2026.

Controller

Playmakerz, as named in the legal notice above. Questions about data: info@playmakerz.ch.

The short version

• No registration, no name, no e-mail address is asked for or stored.
• Your game progress stays in your browser. Only an anonymous score goes to a database so scores can be compared.
• No cookies, no advertising, no social-media plug-ins.
• Anonymous visitor statistics with Umami: no cookies, no personal data, no tracking across websites.

Service delivery, security and logs

The site is delivered by Netlify, Inc., San Francisco, USA, through its content delivery network. When you open a page, Netlify's servers receive the technical data every web request carries: IP address, request URL, date and time, browser, device and operating-system information, and the referring page. Netlify keeps these logs for a short time for stability, security and abuse prevention, and provides them to us only in aggregated form. This is necessary to show you the site at all.

Fonts

The typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts (Google LLC, USA; for users in Switzerland and the EEA: Google Ireland Ltd.). To fetch a font file your browser sends its IP address and browser details to Google. Google states that it does not use Google Fonts requests for profiling or advertising and does not set cookies with them.

Game progress, scores and the daily comparison

When you finish a game, the page stores one row in a database run by Supabase, Inc. on servers in Ireland (EU, Amazon Web Services region eu-west-1):

The device id is a random number your browser generates the first time you finish a game and keeps in its local storage. It is not derived from your device, your IP address or anything about you, and we cannot link it to a person. Its only purpose is to allow one result per device, game and day. The rows are used to show you how your score compares with everyone else's that day ("You beat 73 %"), and in aggregated form to see which puzzles are played and how hard they are. Nobody can read individual rows through the website; the page only receives counts per score. Supabase's servers see your IP address while the row is sent, as any server does, and keep short-term access logs.

Your current device id: . Quote it if you want your rows deleted.

Visitor statistics

To see how many people visit, which games are played and how people find the site, we use Umami Cloud (Umami Software, Inc., USA). Umami sets no cookies and stores nothing on your device. For each page view and game event (for example: a game started or finished, its score, the share button used, the current streak) it receives the page address, the referring site and campaign tags in the link (such as utm_source), browser, operating system, device type, screen size, language and country. Your IP address is used only to work out the country and an anonymous visitor count; it is not stored, and visits cannot be traced to a person. We only see aggregated numbers. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in understanding and improving the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR); under the FADP the processing involves no personal data in our hands.

A shared result link contains the game, the puzzle number and the score, nothing about you.

Cookies, local storage and consent

Necessary storage (no consent needed): today's progress in each game, your past scores and streak, the device id, settings such as the last view, notices already shown. This lives in your browser's local storage, never leaves your device except as described above, and stays until you clear the site data in your browser. The site then starts fresh, and old results in the database can no longer be attributed to your browser.

Optional storage: none at present. The site sets no cookies and shows no ads; its visitor statistics (below) work without cookies or storage. Should that change, this policy will name the partners, and a consent banner will ask you before any advertising or analytics storage is set.

Sharing a score

"Share my score" hands a short text to your phone's share sheet or copies it to your clipboard. Nothing is sent to us or to a social network by the site itself.

Impostor (party game)

Impostor runs entirely on the phone it is played on. Names entered for a round are not stored and not transmitted.

Legal bases

• Swiss FADP: the processing described here is proportionate, serves the stated purposes and involves no sensitive data (Art. 6 FADP); log data is required to run the service (Art. 31 para. 2 FADP).
• GDPR, for visitors in the EEA and the UK: Art. 6(1)(f) for delivery, security, abuse prevention, the anonymous score comparison and aggregated analysis.

Retention and deletion

Server logs are kept for a short time by the hosting providers. Score rows are anonymous statistics and are kept without time limit; on request we delete the rows of a device id. Data in your browser stays until you delete it. Statutory retention duties and legitimate evidence needs, for example legal defence, remain unaffected.

Recipients and international transfers

Recipients are the hosting, database and font providers named above: Netlify (USA), Google (USA / Ireland) and Supabase (Ireland). Some of them process data outside Switzerland and the EEA, in particular in the USA. Where that is the case we rely on adequacy decisions (for the USA the Swiss-US and EU-US Data Privacy Framework, where the provider is certified) or on the EU standard contractual clauses recognised by the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner.

Links to other sites

Photos link to their source page on Wikimedia Commons. Those sites have their own privacy policies; this policy ends where you leave sport-minigames.com.

Your rights

Under the FADP and, where it applies, the GDPR you have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to its processing, to receive it in a portable format. Because the site holds no name, e-mail address or IP address that we could search for, a request about score rows has to include your device id (shown above when your browser has one). Write to info@playmakerz.ch.

You may also complain to the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), Bern, or, in the EEA and the UK, to the supervisory authority of your country.

Voluntary provision

You do not have to provide any data. Without the technically necessary data the site cannot be shown; without the score row the daily comparison cannot be shown.

This policy changes when the site changes, for example when a new game needs other data. The date at the top says when it was last updated.

Content and pictures

Data. The numbers behind the puzzles are compiled from public sources such as league statistics, Wikipedia, Forbes and official federation records, and reflect the date noted in each puzzle. They are provided without guarantee of accuracy or completeness; a correction with a source is always welcome at the contact address above.

Pictures. The illustrations are our own or were generated for this site. Portraits of players come from Wikimedia Commons under free licences (public domain, CC0, CC BY or CC BY-SA); each photo links to its source page, where the author and licence are named.

Liability. The site is provided as is, for entertainment. We accept no liability for damage arising from its use or from the content of linked external pages, as far as the law allows.

Applicable law. Swiss law. Place of jurisdiction is Winterthur, Switzerland, unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
