Privacy

Qarya has no accounts, no ads and no cookies. This is everything it keeps.

In your browser

Your saved game, your settings, the tips you have seen, and a random ID the browser makes up. They stay in this browser and are not sent to us, except as below. Clearing the site's data removes them.

Visits

We count page views without cookies and without identifying you. The count sees the page, the site you came from, your country and the kind of device.

The leaderboard

Only if you press "Add my time to the leaderboard". We keep the story, the help level and your time, under a scrambled form of the browser's ID, never the ID itself. Your name on the board is made up for you unless you choose one. Times are kept with no end date.

Feedback

When you send feedback we keep your message, the page, a picture of the game screen if you leave that box ticked, and the same scrambled ID. Please do not write your name, email or anything about yourself.

What we never keep

Your name, email or IP address. Like any website host, ours may hold your IP address in its logs for a short time.

Removing something

To have a time or a message removed, send feedback from the bug button in a story's Settings and give your name on the board.
