Privacy Policy
Who We Are
This Privacy Policy explains how the website ChickenPirate-Game.org collects, uses, stores and protects information when visitors access and interact with the site.
The website address is http://chickenpirate-game.org.
ChickenPirate-Game.org is an informational website that provides explanations, descriptions and general information related to the Chicken Pirate game. The website does not operate a casino, does not host gambling services and does not process financial transactions connected to gameplay.
The purpose of this website is to explain the mechanics, structure and style of the game in an informational format. While doing so, the website may collect limited technical information that helps maintain functionality, security and proper operation.
This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when visitors interact with the website, how that information may be used, how cookies operate on the website, how long certain data may be stored and what rights visitors have regarding the information connected to their interaction with the site.
By accessing and using this website, visitors acknowledge that they understand the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
Comments
Visitors may have the option to leave comments on certain parts of the website. When a comment is submitted, the website collects the information that is entered in the comment form. This usually includes the name provided by the user, the email address if required and the content of the comment itself.
In addition to the information entered by the user, the system may automatically collect technical data related to the comment submission. This may include the visitor’s IP address and a browser identification string known as the user agent. These elements help the website identify spam activity and maintain the integrity of comment discussions.
Comments submitted to the website may be processed through automated spam detection systems that analyse patterns in order to determine whether a comment should be approved automatically or placed in moderation.
Once a comment is approved, the name provided by the visitor becomes visible to the public next to the comment. The email address associated with the comment is not publicly displayed.
Comments and their associated metadata may remain stored indefinitely. Retaining comments allows the system to recognise future comments from the same visitor and approve them automatically rather than placing them in a moderation queue.
Visitors should avoid including sensitive personal information inside comments, as comments may remain visible to the public.
Gravatar Service
If a visitor leaves a comment using an email address that is associated with a global avatar service, the website may interact with that service to determine whether a profile image exists.
A cryptographic hash created from the visitor’s email address may be transmitted to the Gravatar service in order to check whether a profile image is connected to that email address.
If the visitor has a profile image registered with that service, the image may appear publicly next to the approved comment.
The display of such an image depends entirely on whether the visitor has previously registered a profile image connected to the email address used in the comment.
Visitors who prefer not to display a profile image may simply avoid using an email address associated with such services.
Media
In some cases visitors may upload images or other media content to the website. When uploading images, users should be aware that image files may contain embedded metadata.
Certain image files may include location information stored inside the file itself. This metadata can sometimes include geographic coordinates recorded by cameras or mobile devices.
Visitors who upload images should ensure that such location data is removed before uploading media to the website. Other visitors may be able to download images from the site and extract embedded metadata from them.
For privacy and safety reasons it is recommended that users remove any unnecessary metadata from images before uploading them.
The website administrators cannot control what metadata is included in files uploaded by users and therefore cannot guarantee that such information will not be accessible to others.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on a visitor’s device when browsing a website. They allow websites to remember certain information about a visitor’s interaction with the site.
ChickenPirate-Game.org may use cookies in order to support website functionality, improve usability and maintain user session behaviour.
If a visitor leaves a comment on the site, they may choose to allow the website to save their name, email address and website details in cookies. These cookies exist purely for convenience and allow the visitor to avoid re-entering the same information when leaving another comment later.
These comment related cookies may remain active for approximately one year.
If the website includes a login page, a temporary cookie may be created to determine whether the visitor’s browser accepts cookies. This temporary cookie contains no personal information and is removed when the browser session ends.
When a user logs into the website, additional cookies may be created to store login information and display preferences. These cookies help maintain the user’s session and allow the website interface to remember certain visual settings.
Login cookies may remain active for two days while display preference cookies may remain stored for a longer period, sometimes up to one year. If the user selects an option that allows the session to remain active, the login may persist for a longer period.
If the user logs out of the website, the login related cookies are removed from the browser.
If a user edits or publishes an article within the website administration system, an additional cookie may be stored in the browser. This cookie contains no personal information and only indicates the identification number of the edited article.
This cookie typically expires after a short period of time.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Articles on this website may include embedded content from other platforms. Embedded content can include videos, images, articles or other interactive media.
When embedded content appears within a page, it behaves in the same way as if the visitor had accessed the external website directly.
External websites that provide embedded content may collect information about visitors, use cookies, implement tracking technologies and monitor interaction with their content.
If a visitor is logged into an account on the external platform while viewing embedded content, the platform may associate the interaction with that account.
ChickenPirate-Game.org does not control how third party websites collect or process information. Visitors are encouraged to review the privacy policies of any external platforms that provide embedded content.
Who We Share Your Data With
ChickenPirate-Game.org does not sell personal data to third parties and does not exchange personal information for commercial purposes.
However, certain technical data may be processed by service providers that support the operation of the website. These may include hosting providers, spam filtering systems and security monitoring services.
These services help maintain the stability, performance and protection of the website.
If a visitor requests a password reset for an account on the website, the system may include the visitor’s IP address within the reset request email. This information helps confirm that the request originated from the correct user and adds an additional level of security.
Any service providers involved in the operation of the website are expected to handle data responsibly and in accordance with standard privacy practices.
Data Security
The website takes reasonable steps to protect stored information from unauthorised access, misuse or disclosure.
Security measures may include server level protections, limited administrative access and monitoring systems that detect suspicious behaviour.
While these measures help reduce risks, it is important to understand that no online system can guarantee absolute security.
Data transmitted over the internet may potentially be intercepted or accessed by unauthorised parties despite reasonable protections.
Visitors should therefore exercise caution when sharing personal information online.
How Long We Retain Your Data
The length of time data is stored depends on the type of interaction with the website.
Comments left on the website and the associated technical metadata may be retained indefinitely. Keeping comments stored allows the system to recognise returning users and manage discussions more efficiently.
If users create an account on the website, the personal information provided in their user profile may also be stored.
Users can access their profile information and modify or delete most personal details whenever they choose. Usernames generally remain fixed once an account is created.
Website administrators may also view or edit user profile information when required for administrative purposes.
What Rights You Have Over Your Data
Visitors who have created an account or submitted comments on the website may request information about the personal data associated with their interaction with the site.
Visitors may request an exported file containing the personal information stored about them. This may include the data provided by the visitor as well as technical information generated during interactions with the website.
Visitors may also request that their personal data be deleted from the system. However, certain information may need to be retained for administrative, legal or security purposes.
Requests related to personal data should be submitted through the contact methods provided on the website.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Comments submitted to the website may be analysed through automated spam detection systems.
These systems help identify malicious content, automated spam activity and suspicious behaviour patterns.
The analysis may involve technical information such as IP addresses, browser information and the content structure of submitted comments.
This process helps ensure that discussions on the website remain relevant and protected from automated abuse.
Children’s Information
ChickenPirate-Game.org does not intentionally collect personal information from children.
The website is intended to provide informational content about a game and is not designed to collect personal data from individuals under the age of eighteen.
If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided personal information through the website, they may contact the website administrators in order to request removal of that information.

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically in order to reflect changes in website functionality, updates to privacy regulations or improvements in data protection practices.
Whenever updates occur, the revised version of the policy will be published on this page.
Visitors are encouraged to review this page from time to time in order to remain informed about how the website handles information.
