Brainy Bits

Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 30, 2026

This policy explains what personal data Brainy Bits (https://puzzles.finnfuncoloring.com), operated by FinnFunColoring, collects, why, and what rights you have under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

1. Who is responsible for your data

The data controller is FinnFunColoring. You can contact us about privacy at finnfuncoloring@gmail.com.

2. What data we collect

Account data: your email address and sign-in method (email or Google). If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email and profile identifier from Google.

Usage data: which puzzles you have solved, hints and answer reveals you have used, and basic technical logs needed to run the site.

Purchase data: which packs you own, your membership status and renewal dates. Your card details are processed directly by Stripe — we never see or store your full card number.

3. Why we use it (legal bases)

To provide the service (contract): keeping your account, saving your progress, unlocking the packs and membership you have paid for.

Legitimate interest: keeping the site secure, preventing abuse, and understanding in aggregate how puzzles are played so we can improve them.

Legal obligation: keeping purchase and tax records as required by accounting law.

4. Who processes data for us

Lovable Cloud hosts the website, database and sign-in system. Stripe processes payments, handles sales taxes and stores your billing details. Google provides optional sign-in. These providers process data on our behalf under their own privacy terms and may process data outside the EU under appropriate safeguards (such as standard contractual clauses).

5. What we do not do

We do not sell your personal data, we do not show advertising, and we do not use your data for marketing emails beyond essential service messages (receipts, membership and account notices).

6. Cookies and local storage

The site uses only essential browser storage: your sign-in session and preferences. We do not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.

7. How long we keep data

Account and progress data is kept while your account exists; you can delete your account by emailing us. Purchase records are kept for the period required by accounting and tax law (up to 6–10 years).

8. Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to processing, and to withdraw consent where processing is based on it. Email us at finnfuncoloring@gmail.com and we will respond within 30 days. You also have the right to complain to the Finnish Data Protection Ombudsman (tietosuoja.fi) or your local data protection authority.

9. Children

Brainy Bits is intended for users aged 16 and over. Younger puzzle fans are welcome to play with a parent or guardian, who should create and manage the account.

10. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time; the current version is always on this page and material changes will be announced on the site.
