Privacy notice
Last updated 22 September 2026
Islejarl is a game that is not open yet. Right now the only thing we collect is what you give us to make an account and sign in on the front page. This page explains what that is and what we do with it.
What we collect
- Your email address.
- The username you picked.
- Your tick that you are 13 or older, and that a parent or guardian knows if you are under 18.
- Whether you asked to be a beta tester, and whether that was approved.
- The time you signed up and the time you confirmed your email.
- A scrambled fingerprint of your internet address. We cannot turn it back into the address. We use it only to spot people who sign up hundreds of times.
- A single sign-in cookie once you are signed in, so the site knows it is you. It holds a random token, not your email or username, and is not readable by other sites.
We do not use advertising trackers or analytics cookies on this site.
Why we collect it
- To send you the six digit code that proves the email is yours, whether you are signing up or signing in.
- To keep you signed in on your device, so you do not need a code every visit.
- To email you when the game opens. That is the only kind of message we plan to send members before then.
- To keep out bots and repeat sign-ups.
Who can see it
We do not sell your details or hand them to advertisers. Accounts are stored on our web host, DreamHost, in the United States. Confirmation and sign-in emails go out through that host. If we move email sending to a delivery service such as Brevo, that service will handle your address only to deliver our messages, and we will update this page first.
The site sits behind Cloudflare, which filters bad traffic and runs the short safety check on the sign-up box. Cloudflare sees the visits it filters and may set its own cookie for that check.
How long we keep it
- A sign-up you never confirm is deleted after 24 hours.
- Once confirmed, your account and username are kept until you delete the account or ask us to.
- The sign-in cookie lasts up to about 400 days, or until you log out, whichever comes first.
- Codes are stored only as scrambled values and stop working after 10 minutes.
Your choices
You can log out from your account page at any time. To delete your account, write to [email protected] and we will delete your email and username; a self-service delete button is planned but not built yet. You can also ask us what we hold about you, or ask us to correct it.
Age
Islejarl is for people aged 13 and over. If you are under 18, please make sure a parent or guardian knows you are signing up. If you think a child under 13 has joined, write to us and we will delete the entry.
Changes
If this notice changes in a way that matters, we will change the date at the top and tell people on the list by email.
