What your board-rack slot stores

Detail on your rack slot	Why the cove holds on to it	Kept at the cove until
Name on the rack	Showing your nickname on the reels	You delete your rack slot
Email Wenlo holds	Matching you to your rack slot at login	You delete your rack slot
Password hash	Logging you in while the password itself is never kept	You delete your rack slot
Sign-up date	Replying to support notes and stopping abuse at the cove	You delete your rack slot

There is nothing more on the list. You will never be asked for your real name, address, date of birth, phone number or any payment detail, because nothing at the cove costs anything. Passwords are only ever stored as a one-way hash. Lawful basis: performance of a contract (providing the account you requested). Delete the account and all of it goes immediately; the button sits on your account page.

What your own browser holds

Detail on your rack slot	Why the cove needs this one	Kept at the cove until
Coins, level, missions and your game preferences at the cove	Picking up where you paddled in	You clear this browser’s data
Age confirmation	Skipping the question on later pages	You clear this browser’s data
Cookie choice	Storing the answer you gave on consent	You clear this browser’s data

None of this leaves your device or washes up with us.

Google tags, only after a yes from you

With “Accept all”, Google Analytics and Google Ads tags measure visits and check whether our adverts end in play, a first spin for instance. Your IP address, device information and those events then go to Google. With “Essential only”, the tags still run, but in consent mode, without cookies and without advertising identifiers. Lawful basis: consent.

Logs kept by the cove’s hosting server

To keep things secure, our host holds routine request logs for a brief period. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.

What the cove will never do with data

We hold no payment data whatsoever; there is nothing to pay for.
You get marketing email only if you ask for it.
We never sell or rent your data, to anyone.
No data goes to gambling operators, and there are no gambling affiliate links.

The rights you hold at the cove

Whenever you like, you can access, correct, erase or restrict your data, object to its processing and withdraw consent. Delete your account on the account page and its data is gone immediately; clear this site’s data in your browser to remove anything else. The ICO takes complaints at ico.org.uk.
