Privacy Philosophy

At Melthorion, privacy is not an afterthought—it's a foundational principle. We've designed our platform to minimize data collection while still providing you with an excellent gaming experience. This Privacy Policy explains our practices in clear, straightforward language.

We believe you have a right to know exactly what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we use it. We also believe in giving you control over your data to the greatest extent possible. This policy reflects those values.

What Information We Collect

Melthorion collects very limited information. When you visit our platform, we may automatically collect certain technical information such as your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device information, and basic usage data about how you interact with our site.

We use browser local storage to remember your age verification status. This information is stored on your device, not on our servers. It allows us to provide you with a seamless experience without repeatedly asking you to verify your age.

Importantly, we do not require you to create an account, provide an email address, or share any personally identifying information to use Melthorion. The platform is designed to be accessible without collecting unnecessary personal data.

How We Use Your Information

The limited technical information we collect serves specific, legitimate purposes. We use it to ensure the platform functions properly, to identify and fix technical issues, to prevent abuse and security threats, and to understand general usage patterns that help us improve the user experience.

We analyze aggregated, anonymized data to understand which games are popular, what devices our users prefer, and how we can optimize performance. This analysis never involves identifying individual users or tracking personal behavior.

We do not use your information for advertising purposes, and we do not sell or rent any data to third parties. Our business model does not depend on monetizing user information.

Local Storage and Cookies

Melthorion uses browser local storage primarily to store your age verification consent. This allows us to remember that you've confirmed you're over 18, preventing the need to verify on every visit. This data resides on your device and can be cleared through your browser settings at any time.

We may use session cookies to maintain functionality during your visit. These cookies are temporary and automatically delete when you close your browser. They do not track your activity on other websites and exist solely to ensure proper operation of Melthorion.

You have full control over cookies and local storage through your browser settings. However, blocking these may affect your experience, such as requiring you to verify your age on each visit.

Third-Party Services and Links

Melthorion may use third-party services for essential functions such as hosting and content delivery. We carefully select service providers based on their privacy practices and security standards. These providers are contractually obligated to protect any data they process on our behalf.

Our site includes links to external resources, particularly organizations that provide responsible gaming support. When you click these links, you navigate away from Melthorion and are subject to the privacy policies of those external sites. We encourage you to review their policies before sharing any information.

Data Security Practices

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect the limited information we collect. This includes secure connections, regular security audits, and access controls that limit who can view or interact with any collected data.

However, no system is perfectly secure. While we take reasonable precautions, we cannot guarantee absolute security of data transmitted over the internet. You use Melthorion with the understanding that internet-based services carry inherent security risks.

Because we don't collect financial information or require personal accounts, the security risks associated with using Melthorion are minimal compared to sites that handle sensitive personal or financial data.

Protection of Minors

Melthorion is not intended for anyone under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from minors. Our age verification system is designed to prevent access by underage individuals.

If we discover that we have inadvertently collected information from someone under 18, we will delete that information immediately and take steps to prevent future access. Parents and guardians should monitor their children's internet usage and employ parental control tools to prevent access to age-restricted content.

Your Rights and Choices

You have rights regarding any information related to your use of Melthorion. Because we collect minimal data and don't require accounts, there's little personal information to manage. However, you can always clear your browser's local storage and cookies to remove any data stored by our platform.

If you have questions about what information we may have collected during your use of Melthorion or how it's used, you can contact us through the channels provided on our site. We will respond to legitimate privacy inquiries promptly and thoroughly.

International Users

Melthorion is accessible from around the world. If you access our platform from outside your home country, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in different locations. We take steps to ensure that your information receives adequate protection regardless of where it is processed.

Different countries have different privacy laws. By using Melthorion, you consent to the transfer and processing of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy, regardless of your location.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make significant changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the bottom of this page.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy. Your continued use of Melthorion after any changes indicates your acceptance of the updated policy.
