zagzook - a new puzzle, every day

Privacy policy

Last updated: September 15, 2026

zagzook is a one-person site. This page explains, plainly, what happens with your information when you visit.

Playing the games

You don't need an account to play. Each browser gets an anonymous token stored in your browser's own local storage, used only to remember which puzzles you've already played today so a finished game shows as done instead of resetting. That token isn't tied to your name, email, or any other identifying information, and it never leaves your device except to record which puzzle and difficulty you completed - not who you are.

If you set a display name on the homepage, that's stored the same way - in your browser only, never sent anywhere else.

The contact form

If you use the contact page, the name, email address, and message you enter are stored so they can be read and replied to, and a copy is emailed to the site's inbox. That information is used only to respond to you - it's not shared, sold, or used for marketing.

Cookies and tracking

This site does not use advertising or analytics tracking scripts, and doesn't set cookies to follow you across other sites. The local storage described above stays on your device.

The store

The Store page links out to third-party marketplaces (such as Amazon, Etsy, Gumroad, WarriorPlus, or Ko-fi) to complete a purchase. Once you click through, you're on that marketplace's site under its own privacy policy - zagzook doesn't see or handle any payment or order information.

Questions

If you have questions about any of this, reach out through the contact page.
