Technical operation

Hosting, delivery, and ordinary website processing

Static hosting and server processing

GeoQuizGenius is delivered as a static website. Like most websites, technical request data such as IP address, browser information, referrer data, and request timing may be processed at the hosting or delivery layer to make the site available, protect service integrity, and diagnose faults.

Such processing is limited to what is technically necessary for delivery, security, and operational maintenance.

Cloudflare Web Analytics

GeoQuizGenius uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregated traffic and page-performance trends. The service is intended to provide privacy-conscious measurement without creating an account system for visitors.

If the analytics setup changes materially, this policy should be updated to reflect the new behavior.

Browser-side processing

Local storage, search behavior, and third-party requests

Local browser storage

The site stores local highscore entries in the browser so replay results can persist on that device. Favorites and Fresh Picks also use that local browser state to personalize what the visitor sees on the same device.

This is local browser functionality rather than a central account system. The information stays tied to the browser unless the visitor clears it.

Search and Google Fonts

The site search is client-side page functionality. Search terms entered into the on-page search form are used in the browser to surface matching quiz and hub routes.

GeoQuizGenius also loads typography from Google Fonts. That means the browser makes requests to Google font infrastructure, which can involve technical data such as the visitor IP address being transmitted as part of content delivery.

Contact and future advertising

Email communication and planned ad technology

Email communication

If you contact GeoQuizGenius by email, the information you send will be processed to review the request, respond, and document the matter where operationally necessary.

Retention depends on the nature of the message. Routine messages may be deleted once no longer needed, while legal or rights-related correspondence may be retained for documentation and defense of claims.

Planned banner advertising

GeoQuizGenius is intended to use banner advertising, including AdSense-style monetization, but this policy should not be read as a statement that consent-dependent advertising technologies are already active on every page.

If advertising technologies that rely on cookies, local storage, profiling, or comparable identifiers are activated for users in regions that require consent, they should only be loaded after the required consent mechanism is in place.
