Cookie Policy
Last Updated as of 2026-11-13
Throughout this document, references to “the Service” or “our website” shall be understood as referring specifically to Extraplot.
This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies on our website, including the analytics tools we integrate and the information they may collect. It also explains why we collect certain data (including IP addresses) and how you can control your preferences.
What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store data that can be retrieved by a web server in the domain that placed the cookie. We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, tags, and SDKs. These technologies help us operate the website, measure performance, understand usage, and prevent abuse.
Local Storage We Use
Extraplot stores your play history (chart IDs, latest and best scores, play counts, and play times) in your browser’s local storage under the key extraplot.history.v1. This data never leaves your browser and can be removed by clearing this site’s data.
Our Use of IP Addresses for Abuse Prevention
To protect our services and users from spam, abuse, fraud, and security threats, we collect and process IP addresses when you use the website. We may analyze IP-based signals (e.g. rate limits, unusual patterns, geolocation inconsistencies) to detect and mitigate misuse. We do not use IP addresses to identify you personally without additional lawful basis and do not sell IP information.
Categories of Cookies We Use
Essential (Strictly Necessary): Required for core site functionality and security. The website cannot function properly without these.
Functionality/Preference: Remember your choices (such as the onboarding introduction you have already seen) to provide a more personalized experience.
Analytics Cookies We Use
We use two analytics services on the public site. Google Analytics 4 measures page views and traffic sources with IP anonymization enabled and advertising storage disabled. Microsoft Clarity records how public pages are used (heatmaps and session replays) and masks all form input by default. Recording is stopped entirely on the checkout page and payment-return URLs, so payment details and your receipt email are never captured. Both services are only used to understand and improve the site, not for advertising.
Data Retention and Transfers
We retain cookie-derived data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined above, consistent with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Please review this page periodically for changes. Material updates will be posted on this page and are effective when published.
