Privacy & cookies
DataCruise Arcade is a set of free browser games made for children, classrooms and curious grown-ups. This page explains exactly what the site stores, what it sends elsewhere, and what it never asks for.
Last updated: 30 October 2026.
What we never ask for
The Arcade has no accounts and no sign-up. We do not ask for your name, your email address, your age, your location, a photograph, or anything else that identifies you. There is no form on this site that collects personal information, and nothing you type into a game is ever sent to us.
What is stored on your own device
The games keep a few small settings in your browser's local storage. These stay on your device, are not sent anywhere, and can be cleared at any time by clearing your browser data:
- Whether you have muted a game's sound.
- A flag recording that the full game pack is unlocked (every game is currently free, so this is a leftover from when some were paid).
The site also installs a service worker, which caches the games so they keep working without a connection. That cache holds game files only — no information about you.
Visitor statistics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits and see which games are played. It is a privacy-first tool: it sets no cookies, does not fingerprint your device, and does not track you across other websites. We see totals, never individuals.
Advertising
The games are free to play, and advertising is how the site is paid for. Where ads appear, they are supplied by Google AdSense.
- Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads.
- Because this site is directed to children, it is tagged for child-directed treatment. That turns off personalised and interest-based advertising and switches off remarketing. Ads are chosen from the content of the page, not from any profile of the person viewing it.
- No information collected by this site is passed to advertisers.
You can review and adjust how Google uses data for advertising at My Ad Center, and read Google's own explanation at How Google uses cookies in advertising. If you are in the UK, EEA or Switzerland you will be shown a consent message before any non-essential cookies are set, and you can change your choice at any time from that message.
Children's privacy
This site is intended to be safe for children to use on their own. It collects no personal information from anyone, of any age, which means there is nothing for a parent to request, correct or delete. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and we do not build profiles of visitors.
We treat the whole site as child-directed for the purposes of the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and we have regard to the UK Age Appropriate Design Code. In practice that means: no personalised advertising, no tracking across sites, no accounts, and no data collection of any kind beyond anonymous visit counts.
Links to other sites
Some pages link out to other DataCruise sites, and the share buttons can open Facebook, WhatsApp, X, Telegram or your email app. Once you follow a link, that site's own privacy policy applies, not this one. Nothing is shared with those services unless you choose to share it.
Changes to this page
If what the site collects or shows ever changes, this page is updated and the date at the top changes with it.
