Who We Are

Tilesum is published by ZYEYZ LLC, doing business as Snowy Mountain Software, based in Montana, USA.

Data We Collect

Tilesum collects minimal data to provide the game experience:

  • Session cookies: A session identifier stored in your browser to track your game progress and prevent duplicate puzzle submissions. No login or personal information is required.
  • Gameplay data: When you complete a puzzle, we record: whether you solved it, number of moves, solve time, and piece placement data. This data is associated with your anonymous session, not a personal identity.
  • Browser fingerprint: A lightweight hash of non-identifying browser characteristics (screen resolution, timezone, language) used solely to prevent abuse and duplicate submissions.

What We Do Not Collect

  • We do not collect your name, email address, or any personally identifiable information.
  • We do not use third-party analytics or tracking services.
  • We do not serve advertisements.
  • We do not sell or share any data with third parties.

Cookies

Tilesum uses a single session cookie (provided by Django) that is essential for gameplay. This cookie enables us to:

  • Track whether you have already completed today's puzzle
  • Measure your solve time accurately
  • Prevent duplicate submissions

This cookie expires after one year of inactivity and does not contain personal information.

How We Use Your Data

Gameplay data is used exclusively for:

  • Providing the puzzle game experience
  • Preventing cheating and abuse
  • Generating anonymous aggregate statistics (e.g., average solve times)

Data Retention

Gameplay records are retained indefinitely for aggregate statistics. Session data is automatically purged after one year of inactivity.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect personally identifiable information, there is typically no personal data to request, modify, or delete. If you have concerns about data associated with your session, please contact us.
