Welcome to Teknotori’s Privacy Policy

At Teknotori, we’re all about bringing people together through games. Whether you’re here to unwind, challenge friends, or discover something new, we want you to feel comfortable and in control of your experience. This policy explains how we handle your information when you visit our site or play games. It’s not meant to sound complicated—just straightforward and honest.

If you’re under 13 (or the age of majority in your country), we don’t knowingly collect personal information from you. For everyone else, this policy covers what we collect, why, how we protect it, and what choices you have.

Information We Collect

When you visit Teknotori, we gather a few types of information to make the site work smoothly and improve your experience. Here’s what that looks like:

Automatic Information (No Action Needed)

This data is collected automatically when you browse or play:

  • Device and browser info: What kind of device you’re using (phone, tablet, computer), your operating system, and browser type. This helps us fix bugs or optimize performance.
  • IP address: A number assigned to your device when you connect to the internet. We use it to deliver content and prevent fraud, but we don’t track your location personally.
  • Referring URLs: Where you came from (like a search engine or another site) to see how people discover Teknotori.
  • Gameplay data: If you play a game, we might collect anonymous stats like how long you played, which games you tried, or your in-game performance. This helps us understand what’s popular or needs improvement.
  • Cookies and tracking technologies: Small files stored on your device to remember preferences (like language settings) or track activity for analytics. We’ll explain these in detail later.

Information You Provide

If you choose to share it, we may collect:

  • Contact details: If you reach out via our contact form, we’ll keep your name and email to respond. We won’t use this for anything else unless you opt in.
  • Account info: If you create an account (optional), we’ll store a username and password to let you log in. We don’t ask for unnecessary details.
  • Feedback or surveys: If you share thoughts on the site or games, we might save your responses to improve things.

We don’t ask for sensitive info like race, religion, or financial details unless you volunteer it.

---

How We Collect Information

Most of the time, data is collected automatically through:

  • Cookies and scripts: These are small pieces of code that run in the background to track activity, remember settings, or load content faster.
  • Server logs: When you visit a page, our servers record basic details (like your IP address or browser type) to keep the site running.
  • Third-party tools: Some services (like analytics or ad providers) collect data on our behalf. We’ll explain these in the next section.

You’ll never be asked to share personal info just to use the site or play games. Everything else is optional.

---

How We Use Your Information

Here’s what we do with the data we collect:

  • Run the site: We use technical data (like your IP address or browser type) to deliver content, fix problems, and prevent abuse.
  • Improve your experience: Analytics help us see which games are popular, where people drop off, or what’s confusing. This lets us tweak the site to work better for everyone.
  • Personalize content (a little): If you log in or use features like saving progress, we might show you relevant games or updates based on your activity.
  • Show ads: We use data to deliver ads that match your interests (like game genres you’ve clicked on). This helps us keep the site free for you.
  • Protect the community: We monitor activity to prevent cheating, spam, or other issues that could ruin the experience for others.

We don’t sell your personal information, and we won’t use it for marketing unless you’ve opted in (like signing up for a newsletter).

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are tiny files that help the site remember things, like your language preference or login status. They’re used by us and trusted partners to:

  • Essential cookies: These keep the site functional. For example, they let you navigate between pages or log in without re-entering details every time.
  • Analytics cookies: These track how you use the site (like which games you view) so we can improve it. They don’t collect personal info.
  • Advertising cookies: These remember your interests (based on games you’ve played or clicked) to show relevant ads. They might also limit ad repetition.
  • Social media cookies: If you interact with our social media links (like sharing a game), third parties may track this activity.

How to Manage Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you:

  • Block all cookies
  • Allow only essential cookies
  • Clear cookies when you close the browser

However, blocking cookies might break some features (like saving game progress or logging in).

Cookie Consent

When you first visit Teknotori, you’ll see a cookie consent banner. This lets you choose:

  • Accept all cookies (for a smoother experience)
  • Reject non-essential cookies (like analytics and ads)
  • Customize settings for each category

You can change your preferences anytime by clicking the cookie icon in the corner of the site.

Third-Party Services

We partner with a few services to help run the site. Here’s what they do and how they handle data:

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how people use Teknotori. It collects:

  • Device and browser info (anonymized)
  • Pages you visit and how long you stay
  • Referring sites (where you came from)

Google doesn’t associate this data with your personal identity. We’ve also enabled Google Analytics anonymizeIP, which shortens your IP address to protect privacy.

Google AdSense

We use AdSense to show ads that match your interests (based on games you’ve viewed or clicked). This helps us keep the site free. AdSense may:

  • Use cookies to track your activity across sites
  • Build profiles based on your interests to personalize ads
  • Share data with ad networks for targeting

You can opt out of AdSense tracking by visiting the Google Ad Settings page.

Embedded Game Providers

Some games on Teknotori are hosted by third parties (like Miniclip or CrazyGames). When you play these:

  • Your gameplay data (like scores or progress) might be stored by the game provider, not us.
  • They may have their own privacy policies—check their sites for details.
  • We don’t access or control their data collection.
---

Data Sharing

We don’t share your personal information with companies, except in a few cases:

  • Service providers: Companies that help us run the site (like hosting or analytics tools) may process your data on our behalf. They’re contractually obligated to protect it.
  • Ad and analytics networks: Partners like Google may receive anonymized data or cookie info to show ads or improve services.
  • Legal requirements: If we’re required by law (like a court order), we may disclose data to comply.
  • With your consent: If you opt in to features like newsletters, we’ll share your email with that service.

We won’t sell your data, rent it out, or trade it for profit.

---

Data Retention

We keep data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected:

  • Technical logs (IP addresses, browser info): Retained for up to 30 days to troubleshoot issues.
  • Analytics data: Stored for up to 25 months to track trends and improve the site.
  • Account info: Deleted if your account is inactive for 12 months.
  • Feedback or contact form submissions: Kept for 6 months unless you request deletion.
  • Cookie data: Deleted when you clear cookies or opt out.

After these periods, data is permanently erased or anonymized.

---

Children’s Privacy

We care about protecting young users. Teknotori is not designed for children under 13 (or the age of majority in your country), and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them.

If we learn that a child has provided data without parental consent, we’ll delete it immediately. Parents can contact us to request removal of any unintentionally shared information.

Parental guidance is always recommended for online activities.

Data Security

We take basic steps to protect your information, but no system is 100% secure. Here’s what we do:

  • Encryption: Data sent between your browser and our servers is encrypted (look for “https://” in your address bar).
  • Access controls: Only authorized staff can access your data, and it’s stored securely.
  • Regular updates: We keep software and security measures up to date to prevent breaches.
  • No sensitive storage: We don’t collect or store sensitive info (like passwords or payment details) unless you provide it directly (e.g., for account recovery).

If we discover a security issue or breach, we’ll notify affected users as required by law.

---

International Data Transfers

Teknotori is hosted on servers in Indonesia. If you’re outside Indonesia, your data may be transferred internationally to provide services (like analytics or ads).

We ensure these transfers comply with privacy laws, such as:

  • Using contracts that meet GDPR standards (like the EU Standard Contractual Clauses).
  • Avoiding transfers to countries without adequate protections unless necessary.

If you have concerns, you can contact us for more details.

---

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in how we use data or to comply with laws. When we do, we’ll:

  • Post a notification on the site (like a banner or announcement).
  • Send an email if the changes affect your rights or how we use your data.
  • Keep an archive of past versions so you can see how policies have changed.

We encourage you to review this policy periodically, especially if you’ve used the site for a while.
