About this site

Play3DPinball is a free browser pinball game website. It is an independent fan-made project — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft. There are no user accounts: you press Play and the game runs. This page explains, in plain language, what little data is involved and the choices you have.

What we store

Everything the game and site save lives in your own browser (localStorage), never on our servers:

Language preference — the site language you picked, so the site opens in it next time.
Local high scores — your best score per table, kept on this device only.
Game settings and caches — table packs are cached by your browser so the second launch is instant.

We do not ask for your name, email address, or any personal information, and we do not run our own analytics or tracking. Clearing your browser's site data removes all of the above instantly.

Advertising and cookies

The site is free and supported by ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Ads are shown only in ad slots on our pages and between game sessions — never inside an ongoing game.

For visitors from the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, ads (including personalised ads) are only shown after you make a choice in the consent message presented on your first visit. You can change or withdraw that choice at any time via the Google Ads Settings page or your browser's cookie settings.

Your choices

Opt out of personalised advertising: Google Ads Settings
Learn more: Google's "How Google uses information from sites that use its services" page and the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out.
Block or delete cookies in your browser — the game itself does not require them to run.
Clear local high scores and preferences by clearing this site's data in your browser.

Legal notes

GDPR (EEA) & UK GDPR: the data described above is either stored only on your device (localStorage) or processed by Google as a controller for its own advertising purposes under its privacy policy. There is no server-side profile of you on our side.

CCPA (California): we do not sell or share personal information; there is no personal information to disclose beyond what your browser and Google's ad services process.

Children: the site is not directed at children under 13, and we knowingly collect nothing from anyone — of any age.
