Privacy Policy

We don’t track you

This is a small site for a quiet game. It watches the world, not you.

The Long Watch website doesn’t ask who you are, and it doesn’t try to find out. No accounts, no tracking cookies, no profile of your visit.

There are no accounts to make, and no forms that keep what you type. We set no tracking cookies and build no picture of who you are — nothing here follows you around the rest of the web.

The one thing we do measure is how quickly the pages load. For that the site uses a privacy-first beacon from Cloudflare — it times how fast a page comes up, and nothing else. It sets no cookies, reads nothing from your browser’s storage, fingerprints nothing, and keeps no IP address; the figures are fleeting and tied to the page, not to you. We switch it off entirely for visitors in the EU. You can read exactly what it does, and doesn’t, in Cloudflare’s privacy notes (opens in a new tab).

A few links lead off-site — to Discord, X, Bluesky, itch.io, Reddit, or your own RSS reader. Once you leave, you’re on their ground, and their privacy policies apply. While you’re here, you’re simply here.

If that ever changes — say the game ships and we add a newsletter or a wishlist — we’ll update this page first, and keep it just as plain. Until then, there’s nothing to manage, opt out of, or delete.
