Privacy Policy

1. Our Privacy Philosophy

At Lusthra, we believe that privacy is a fundamental right. Our platform is designed from the ground up to minimize data collection and maximize your control over your information. We don't require registration or personal information submission to enjoy our games.

This privacy-first approach means we can offer our services without building extensive user profiles or tracking your behavior for monetization purposes. We collect only what is necessary for basic platform functionality and nothing more.

2. Information Automatically Collected

When you visit Lusthra, your web browser automatically sends certain technical information as part of standard internet protocols. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring website, pages visited, and access times.

This technical information is typically logged temporarily on our servers for operational purposes such as troubleshooting technical issues, understanding traffic patterns to ensure adequate server capacity, and detecting potential security threats.

We do not use this information to build detailed user profiles or track you across websites. The data serves purely functional purposes and is not combined with other information to identify you personally.

3. Local Storage Technologies

Lusthra utilizes your browser's local storage capabilities to enhance your experience. Specifically, we store information such as your age verification confirmation and game progress directly on your device.

When you confirm that you are 18 years or older, this confirmation is saved in your browser's local storage. This prevents the age verification prompt from appearing on every visit, streamlining your access to the platform.

All locally stored data remains on your device and is not transmitted to our servers. You maintain complete control over this information through your browser settings and can delete local storage at any time.

Clearing your browser's local storage will remove your age verification status and any saved game progress. The age verification prompt will appear again on your next visit, and you'll start fresh in any games.

4. Game Progress and Virtual Credits

As you play games on Lusthra, certain gameplay data is stored locally on your device. This includes virtual credit balances, game preferences, and progress indicators. This local storage enables continuity across gaming sessions.

All game data is purely virtual and recreational. Virtual credits and progress have no real-world monetary value and cannot be exchanged or transferred. We do not analyze your gameplay patterns for profiling or share gaming information with third parties.

5. Cookies

Lusthra uses minimal cookie technology for essential platform functionality. We do not employ tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party marketing cookies.

Any cookies we use serve basic operational purposes such as maintaining your session state and remembering your preferences. You can control cookie settings through your browser, though disabling certain cookies may affect platform functionality.

6. Third-Party Services

To optimize performance and user experience, Lusthra incorporates resources from external content delivery networks. For example, we use Google Fonts to provide elegant typography across the platform.

When your browser loads these external resources, the providing services may receive standard technical information such as your IP address. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these services if you have concerns about their practices.

The responsible gaming resources linked in our footer (GambleAware, GamCare, and Gambling Therapy) are independent organizations. Clicking these links takes you to their websites, which operate under their own privacy policies separate from Lusthra.

7. Analytics and Tracking

Lusthra maintains a minimal approach to analytics. We do not employ sophisticated tracking systems, behavioral profiling, or targeted advertising. Our platform is designed to provide entertainment without monetizing your personal information or browsing habits.

Any basic analytics we implement serve operational purposes exclusively, such as understanding overall traffic volumes and identifying technical issues that may affect user experience. We do not track individual users or build profiles of your behavior.

8. Information Security

Although Lusthra collects minimal personal information, we still implement reasonable security measures to protect any data that passes through our platform. This includes using standard security protocols for web communications and following best practices for server configuration.

However, no internet transmission method or electronic storage system is completely secure. While we strive to protect information using commercially acceptable means, we cannot guarantee absolute security against all possible threats.

9. Children's Privacy

Lusthra is designed exclusively for users aged 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from minors. Our age verification system is implemented to prevent access by underage individuals.

If we discover that someone under 18 has accessed our platform, we will take appropriate measures to prevent future access. Parents and guardians should actively monitor their children's internet usage to ensure they do not access age-restricted platforms.

10. Your Privacy Control

Because Lusthra operates without user accounts or extensive data collection, traditional privacy rights regarding data access, correction, and deletion have limited application. However, you maintain full control over locally stored information through your browser.

You can clear your browser cache, delete local storage, disable cookies, and manage other privacy settings at any time through your browser's privacy controls. These actions will remove any Lusthra-related data stored on your device.

For information stored on our servers (such as temporary server logs), the data is typically not linked to your identity and ages out automatically according to our data retention policies.

11. International Users

Lusthra is accessible globally. If you access our platform from outside our primary operating region, information may be transferred to and processed in different jurisdictions with varying privacy regulations.

By using Lusthra, you consent to any necessary information transfer required to provide the services. We apply consistent privacy standards to all users regardless of geographic location.

12. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include "Do Not Track" features that signal websites not to track your online activity. Because Lusthra doesn't employ sophisticated tracking mechanisms, Do Not Track settings have minimal impact on our already privacy-respecting practices.

13. Changes to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors. Significant changes will be indicated by updating the effective date at the top of this page.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy occasionally to stay informed about how we protect your privacy. Continued use of Lusthra after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

14. No Marketing Communications

Lusthra does not collect contact information for marketing purposes. You will not receive promotional emails, newsletters, or other marketing communications from us. Our platform operates without user registration, eliminating the possibility of unsolicited communications.

15. Data Retention

Because most Lusthra data is stored locally on your device, you control its retention through your browser settings. Server-side logs and technical information are retained only as long as necessary for operational purposes and are then automatically deleted according to our retention schedules.

16. Transparency Commitment

We believe in straightforward communication about privacy practices. If you have questions about how we handle information or concerns about your privacy while using Lusthra, we encourage you to review all our policy documents.

This Privacy Policy works together with our Terms of Service and Disclaimer to provide a complete picture of how Lusthra operates and what you can expect from our platform.
