What the game uses
- Best score: your browser saves your highest streak in its own local storage under
pl-hol-best. It stays on your device; the game does not send your score to the site operator. You can delete it by clearing this site's data in your browser. - Technical access information: the hosting service receives requests for pages and images. These requests can include an IP address, browser details, requested page and time. The hosting provider may process technical logs to deliver the site, keep it secure and diagnose failures.
- Messages you send: if you email the site operator, your message and contact details are used to answer you and handle your request.
You do not need an account or to provide your name to play. The game does not include advertising. Cloudflare Web Analytics measures visits and page views, including approximate country, referring site and browser information, so the site operator can understand traffic and improve the game. It does not receive your game score. The Share score button uses your device's sharing features and does not submit a score to the site operator.
Why this information is used
Local score storage provides the best-score feature. Technical request information is used to deliver and protect the website and resolve faults. Aggregate traffic measurements are used to understand use of the game and improve it. Messages are used to respond to enquiries. Where personal data is involved, the site operator relies on legitimate interests in running and securing the game and responding to enquiries, subject to applicable data protection rights.
Storage, sharing and transfers
Your best score remains in your browser until you remove it. Hosting data is processed by the website hosting provider and its infrastructure partners and may be handled in countries other than the one in which you live. Analytics measurements are processed by Cloudflare and available to the site operator in aggregate reports; see Cloudflare Web Analytics for its service information. Messages are retained only as long as reasonably needed to respond and handle any follow-up. The site operator does not sell visitor information. Technical logs are subject to the hosting provider's retention and security arrangements; the operator has not established a more precise log-retention period.
Links to photo sources and the Premier League website open other services with their own privacy practices. Photographs used in the game are served from this site; opening a source or credit link takes you to that external service.
Cookies and device storage
The game itself uses browser local storage for your best score. Cloudflare Web Analytics uses a browser script without analytics cookies or local storage. The hosting platform may use essential security or delivery technologies when serving the website. If advertising or other tracking is added, this notice and any required consent controls will be updated before they are enabled.
Your choices and rights
You can clear the local best score through your browser settings. For access, correction, deletion or other questions about personal information, contact info@higherlowergoals.com. Your rights depend on the law that applies in your circumstances. You may also have the right to raise a concern with the data protection or privacy regulator responsible for your country or region.
