Privacy Policy

At Bored Tasks ("we", "us", "our") your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit boredtasks.com (the "Site"), how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information we collect

We've designed Bored Tasks to collect as little personal information as possible.

• Information stored on your device. Your quiz progress, completed results, and your light/dark theme preference are saved in your browser's local storage. This data stays on your device - we cannot see it, and it is never transmitted to our servers.
• Information you give us voluntarily. If you contact us, you may provide your name and email address. We use this only to respond to you.
• Automatically collected information. Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically log technical data such as your browser type, device, approximate location (country/region), referring page, and pages viewed. This helps us understand how the Site is used and improve it.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device. We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, measure traffic, and (where applicable) serve relevant advertising. You can disable or delete cookies in your browser settings, though some features of the Site may not work as intended if you do.

3. Advertising and third parties

We may display advertising on the Site, including through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this and other websites.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.
• Third-party advertising networks and analytics providers have their own privacy policies governing their use of information. We encourage you to review them.

4. How we use information

We use the limited information we collect to operate and improve the Site, respond to your enquiries, measure and analyse usage, display advertising, and keep the Site secure. We do not sell your personal information.

5. Your rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your data, and the right to object to certain processing or to data portability. If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected and to opt out of its "sale" (we do not sell personal information). To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below and we will respond in line with applicable law.

6. Children's privacy

Bored Tasks is intended for users aged 16 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

7. Data retention & security

We retain voluntarily-provided information (such as contact messages) only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described here. We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information, but no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we'll revise the "Last updated" date above. Significant changes may be highlighted on the Site.
