Privacy Policy
Last Revision: November 26, 2024
Kyntheris prioritizes your privacy and operates with transparency regarding information handling practices. This Privacy Policy articulates our approach to data collection, usage, and protection within our social casino entertainment platform.
1. Scope of Information Collection
Kyntheris functions with minimal data collection architecture. Our platform utilizes browser localStorage technology to maintain your age verification status locally on your device. This design choice means we do not collect, store, or process personally identifiable information such as names, addresses, email accounts, phone numbers, or payment information on our servers. Your interaction with Kyntheris remains largely anonymous.
2. Local Storage Implementation
We employ HTML5 localStorage to record your age verification confirmation. This technology stores a simple flag indicating you have confirmed meeting our minimum age requirement. The data resides exclusively on your local device and never transmits to our servers or any external parties. You retain complete control and can delete this stored verification at any time through your browser's data management settings.
3. Technical Data Processing
Standard web server operations automatically log certain technical information when you access Kyntheris. This includes IP addresses, browser user agents, device types, operating systems, and timestamp data. These server logs serve essential functions including security monitoring, performance optimization, and technical troubleshooting. We do not correlate this technical data with individual users or employ it for tracking purposes.
4. Cookie Usage Policy
Kyntheris operates without advertising cookies, analytics cookies, or third-party tracking mechanisms. We do not participate in behavioral advertising networks or cross-site tracking initiatives. Essential cookies required for basic platform functionality may be employed to maintain session integrity as you navigate between pages. These essential cookies contain no personal information and exist solely to ensure proper website operation.
5. Third-Party Resources
Our platform includes hyperlinks to external responsible gambling organizations: GambleAware, GamCare, and Gambling Therapy. These links connect you to independent websites operated by third parties. Upon clicking these links, you exit Kyntheris and become subject to the privacy policies and data practices of those external organizations. We bear no responsibility for third-party privacy practices and recommend reviewing their respective policies.
6. Information Security Measures
We implement industry-standard security protocols to protect our platform infrastructure. However, given our minimal data collection model and the virtual nature of all platform activities, there exists no sensitive financial information or personal data requiring protection. The age verification stored in your browser's localStorage benefits from your browser's built-in security mechanisms. Virtual game credits and progress data similarly reside locally with no real-world value requiring safeguarding.
7. Minor Protection Protocols
Kyntheris maintains a strict 18-and-over access policy. We do not knowingly permit, collect information from, or interact with individuals under 18 years of age. Our age verification system activates upon initial platform access to prevent minor participation. If we discover that someone under 18 has accessed our platform despite these protections, we take immediate action to prevent future access and remove any inadvertently collected data.
8. Cross-Border Data Considerations
The internet enables global access to Kyntheris from numerous jurisdictions worldwide. Users accessing our platform from outside our primary operational jurisdiction should understand that technical information processed during platform use may cross international boundaries. By accessing Kyntheris, you consent to any such international data transfers. We comply with applicable data protection regulations in jurisdictions where we actively operate.
9. User Control and Data Rights
Because Kyntheris does not maintain user accounts or store personal information on our servers, traditional data subject rights such as data access requests, correction requests, or deletion requests do not apply in the conventional sense. The only information stored about you resides in your browser's localStorage, which you control completely and can clear at any time through browser settings. Clearing localStorage resets your age verification, requiring re-verification on your next visit.
10. Browser Privacy Settings
Modern web browsers offer robust privacy controls allowing you to manage cookies, localStorage, and other tracking technologies. We respect browser-level privacy preferences including Private Browsing modes and tracking protection features. Note that certain privacy settings may affect platform functionality, such as blocking localStorage which would prevent age verification persistence.
11. Policy Modification Procedures
Kyntheris reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy to reflect changing practices, legal requirements, or platform improvements. Material changes will be communicated through updates to this page with a revised effective date. We encourage periodic review of this policy to stay informed about our privacy practices. Continued platform use following policy modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
12. Data Retention Framework
Our server-side data retention is minimal and brief, limited to technical logs maintained for security and operational purposes. These logs typically retain data for short durations before automatic deletion. The age verification in your browser's localStorage persists indefinitely until you manually clear it or your browser automatically clears it based on your settings. Virtual game states and credits similarly persist in local storage with no server-side retention.
13. Legal Basis for Processing
The limited information processing conducted by Kyntheris operates under the legal bases of consent and legitimate interest. By using our platform, you consent to localStorage usage for age verification and functional purposes. Our legitimate interest in maintaining secure, functional web services justifies minimal technical data logging. You may withdraw consent by discontinuing platform use and clearing browser storage.
14. California Privacy Rights
Residents of California and other jurisdictions with specific privacy laws should note that Kyntheris does not sell personal information, does not maintain user profiles for advertising purposes, and does not engage in targeted advertising. Our minimal data collection model means most jurisdiction-specific privacy rights relate to data we do not collect or maintain.
15. Privacy-First Philosophy
Kyntheris was architected from inception with a privacy-first philosophy. By eliminating user accounts, eschewing personal data collection, and focusing exclusively on browser-based entertainment, we provide a platform where privacy concerns are minimized by design. You can enjoy our social casino entertainment without surrendering personal information, creating accounts, or worrying about data breaches involving your information.
