Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 22, 2026

1. Introduction

SortFun ("we", "us", "our") operates the website sortfun.com, a free online collection of sorting, puzzle, and logic games. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit SortFun, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using SortFun, you agree to the practices described below.

2. Information We Collect

We try to keep the amount of data we collect to a minimum. The information we may process includes:

  • Usage data — pages you visit, games you open, time spent on the site, the referring URL, and the general path you take through SortFun. This is collected in aggregate to help us understand which games are popular and improve the experience.
  • Device and technical data — browser type, operating system, screen size, approximate location derived from your IP address (typically country and city level), and language preference.
  • Interaction data — like and dislike votes you submit on game pages. Votes are anonymous and are stored alongside a short hashed identifier so the same browser cannot vote twice on the same game.
  • Cookies and local storage — small files stored by your browser that remember preferences, keep your votes consistent, and support advertising described in section 4.

We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or payment information. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information above only to:

  • Deliver game pages and keep the site running reliably.
  • Understand which games and categories are popular, so we can feature the best titles.
  • Prevent abuse, spam votes, and automated scraping.
  • Display relevant advertising from approved partners.
  • Comply with our legal obligations.

We never sell personal information, and we do not use collected data to build individual user profiles.

4. Third-Party Services and Advertising

SortFun uses several trusted third parties to deliver games and support the site:

  • Google AdSense — shows advertising on SortFun. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can learn about and opt out of personalized advertising at google.com/settings/ads or aboutads.info.
  • Google Analytics — helps us understand aggregated traffic patterns. IP addresses are anonymized where supported.
  • Game providers — many games on SortFun are embedded as iframes from game distribution networks (for example GameDistribution and similar partners). When a game is loaded, those providers may set their own cookies and process technical data under their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party game provider if you play their titles.

5. Cookies

Cookies are used on SortFun to remember your preferences, keep your like/dislike votes consistent, and serve advertising. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings. If you disable cookies, parts of the site such as voting and personalized ads may not work as expected.

6. Data Retention

Aggregated analytics data is retained for up to 26 months. Like/dislike votes are retained as long as the related game remains on SortFun. Server logs are rotated regularly and typically kept for no more than 90 days.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the GDPR (European Union) or the CCPA (California) to request access, correction, or deletion of personal data. Because SortFun does not collect account-level personal data, most requests relate to cookies and advertising identifiers, which you can manage through your browser and the Google ad settings linked above. You can also contact us using the details on the Contact page and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

8. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the limited data we do collect, including HTTPS across the site and regular software updates. No method of internet transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of SortFun after changes become effective means you accept the revised policy.
