Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 4, 2025

Our Privacy Commitment

The Puzzle Architect is committed to your privacy. We do not ask for, collect, or store any personally identifiable information. There are no user accounts, no registration forms, no email signups, and no tracking scripts on this website.

What We Do NOT Collect

To be completely clear, this website does NOT collect:

  • Names, email addresses, or contact information — We never ask for it
  • User accounts or passwords — None exist on this site
  • Payment or purchase information — All sales are handled entirely by Amazon.com (see below)
  • Analytics or tracking data — We use no analytics services (Google Analytics, etc.)
  • Advertising cookies — We have no ads and no ad tracking

Standard Server Logs

Like virtually all web servers, our hosting server (Apache) automatically creates standard access logs. These logs may include:

  • IP address — The network address of your connection
  • Timestamp — Date and time of your visit
  • Pages requested — Which pages you viewed
  • Browser and device information — General technical details sent by your browser

These logs are a standard function of web server software. We do not routinely review, analyze, share, or monetize this data. Logs are only accessed in the event of a security incident requiring investigation. To protect your privacy, server logs older than 7 days are automatically and permanently deleted.

Local Storage (Daily Puzzle)

Our Daily Puzzle feature uses your browser's localStorage to save your puzzle progress. This data:

  • Stays entirely on your device — It is never sent to our servers
  • Is controlled by you — You can clear it anytime through your browser settings
  • Contains no personal information — Only puzzle state (which numbers you've entered)

We do not use cookies for tracking. Any browser storage is purely for your convenience and remains 100% on your device.

Book Purchases & Amazon

All book purchases are handled entirely by Amazon.com. When you click a purchase link, you leave our website and complete your transaction directly with Amazon.

We never see or receive any of your purchase information. Amazon handles all payments, shipping, customer service, and returns. The only information we receive from Amazon is that a sale occurred — we do not receive your name, address, payment details, or any other personal information.

Your transaction is subject to Amazon's privacy policy, not ours. We encourage you to review Amazon's privacy practices at amazon.com/privacy.

Data Sharing

We do not share, sell, trade, or rent any data to anyone. Since we don't collect personal information, there is nothing to share.

Children's Privacy

This website is safe for all ages. Since we do not collect any personal information from anyone, we do not collect information from children. No registration or personal details are ever requested.

Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Our commitment to not collecting personal information will not change.

If the business is ever sold or transferred, this policy would be reviewed by new ownership. We cannot guarantee future owners will maintain the same privacy standards. Any changes would be reflected here with an updated date.
