This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used, and what choices you have when visiting Venko Games at https://venkogames.com. The site offers free browser games across 8 categories: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Casual, Puzzle, Racing, Shooter, and Sports.
Venko Games has been running since 2021 and is operated from Spain. There are no user accounts, logins, or passwords required to play games on this site.
What This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy applies to the website https://venkogames.com, operated by Venko Games. It explains the information recorded when you visit pages, play embedded games, search for titles, post comments, or submit messages through on-site forms.
Venko Games is based in Spain, whose law governs these terms. The site has been running since 2021 and provides browser-based games across 8 categories: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Casual, Puzzle, Racing, Shooter, and Sports. There are no user accounts, logins, or stored passwords on this website, so playing games does not require registering.
This policy also outlines how third-party services operate on the site, including analytics, advertising providers, and external game hosts that embed content. It outlines the data handled directly by this website and provides details on how you can contact the operator regarding your information.
Information We Collect Automatically
When you browse the site, certain technical details are recorded automatically by the first-party server. Every page view is logged with the requested path, page type, game identifier if applicable, device class, the referring host name, never the complete referring URL, and a timestamp. No third party receives this raw page-view data. Raw page-view records are kept for 3 days and then deleted, with only daily totals kept after that point.
The site calculates daily visitor counts using a mathematical hash combining a server secret, the calendar date, your IP address, and your browser user-agent string. No readable IP address is stored in this visitor counter. Because the date is included in the hash, a visitor is counted once per day and cannot be linked from one day to the next.
When you use the like or favourite button on a game page, the site stores your IP address so that the same action is not counted twice. Additionally, on-site searches are logged to monitor search activity, recording the entered search text, browser user-agent string, referring page, and session identifier, while the IP address is stored as an irreversible hash.
Information You Send Us
You may choose to communicate with Venko Games through forms available on the website. The general contact form stores the name, email address, subject, and message you submit. These submissions are readable by site administrators and remain stored until they are manually deleted. To prevent spam, the sender IP address and browser user-agent string are also stored to enforce a rate limit of 3 submissions per hour and to block abusive senders.
Every game page also includes an issue report form. Submitting a report stores the selected reason from a fixed list, including copyright matters, the written description, a timestamp, and an email address if you decide to provide one. The reporter IP address is stored to enforce a limit of three reports per game per address each day. Reports are tracked in an administrative interface marked as reviewed, resolved, or dismissed, logging which administrator handled the report and when.
Comments You Post
Visitors can post comments on individual game pages across the website. When you submit a comment, the site stores the display name you provide, an optional email address, the text of your comment, your IP address, and your browser user-agent string.
Comments are published on the respective game page for other visitors to see. The site does not operate an automated schedule for deleting comments. A comment remains stored until it is removed by an administrator. If a game is removed from the catalog, all comments associated with that specific game are deleted along with the game. Because comments are publicly visible, any information you include directly in the comment text will be readable by other people visiting that page.
Search Queries
The website includes a search function to help visitors locate games across the 8 available categories. When you execute an on-site search query, the website logs specific details regarding the request.
These logs record the search terms entered, the browser user-agent string, the referring page, and your current session identifier. In these search logs, your IP address is processed and stored only as an irreversible hash, meaning your actual readable IP address is never stored in the search database.
Logging search queries assists in understanding what game titles or genres visitors look for across the catalog. The recorded session identifier links search queries within the same browsing session while the session cookie remains active.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies and similar storage technologies are used on this website to support core functionality, measure site traffic, and display advertising.
Venko Games sets its own first-party session cookie so that your browsing visit holds together as you navigate from page to page. This technical cookie is restricted to HTTP requests, is transmitted over an HTTPS connection where available, expires after 30 minutes of visitor inactivity, and has its session identifier replaced every 30 minutes.
Other cookies and similar storage mechanisms may be placed on your device depending on your consent choices and the technical configuration of external providers. For instance, analytics tools utilize identifiers to measure site traffic and audience engagement. When advertising services are active on the site, advertising networks may set cookies and tracking identifiers to deliver ads in accordance with their respective rules.
Additionally, many games embedded on the site load content from third-party hosting domains, which set their own cookies independently. You can manage or clear cookies through the privacy settings in your web browser. Note that some site features, advertisements, analytics or embedded games may behave differently when browser storage or third-party scripts are restricted.
Analytics
Venko Games uses Google Analytics to measure website traffic and understand visitor volume. Google Analytics operates under Google's own policies and may place cookies or similar identifiers on your device depending on your consent choices and provider configuration.
In addition to third-party tools, the website maintains its own first-party traffic metrics. Each page request logs the path, page type, game identifier if present, device class, referring host name, and timestamp. These raw first-party page-view logs are deleted after 3 days, after which only aggregated daily totals are retained.
First-party daily visitor counts are tracked using a hashed combination of a secret key, the date, your IP address, and your user-agent string. No readable IP addresses are stored in this counter, preventing cross-day tracking while providing accurate daily visitor numbers.
Advertising
Venko Games may display online advertisements served by Google AdSense across various pages of the website. When advertising services are enabled, Google and its advertising systems may use cookies, device identifiers, and similar technologies to deliver advertisements to your browser.
These advertising technologies operate under Google's own terms and privacy policies. The placement of advertising cookies and the delivery of specific ads depend on visitor consent choices and the provider configuration established by Google. Venko Games does not manage Google's advertising network, does not set these external cookies, and does not determine how Google processes identifiers under its systems.
Advertisements help maintain the free operation of the website, which has been offering browser games since 2021 across 8 categories: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Casual, Puzzle, Racing, Shooter, and Sports. Playing games on the site does not require registration, accounts, or passwords.
Furthermore, personal information collected on this site is treated with care, and nothing collected directly by Venko Games is used to build an advertising profile of a child. Visitors who wish to manage their ad preferences can adjust settings through Google Ads Settings or manage cookie acceptance in their browser preferences.
Third-Party Games and Embedded Content
Many games available on Venko Games are embedded directly in iframes from external third-party providers. Venko Games lists and embeds these games within its catalog; it did not build, develop, or publish any of the games available on the site.
Games are selected based on playability, browser compatibility, usability, and overall player experience. Each title is reviewed before publication to confirm that it loads correctly, works in modern web browsers, and fits into one of the site's 8 categories: Action, Adventure, Arcade, Casual, Puzzle, Racing, Shooter, or Sports.
When you load a page containing an embedded game, your web browser connects directly to the third-party provider's servers. As a result of this technical connection, the external provider receives your IP address and may set its own cookies or local storage data on your device.
Venko Games does not control the data practices, cookies, or servers operated by these third-party game hosts. If you have concerns about a specific embedded game, every game page includes a report form that allows you to submit an issue directly to site administrators for review.
Children’s Privacy
The audience for Venko Games includes school-age children who visit to play browser games across the catalog. Because young players access the site, personal information is treated with extra care.
Nothing this site collects is used to build an advertising profile of a child. Playing games on the website never requires creating an account, logging in, or storing passwords.
Visitors may choose to submit information when using the contact form, sending a game report, or writing a comment on a game page. In addition, basic technical information like IP addresses and browser details are processed for server operations, security rate limits, game likes, and analytics. Parents and guardians who have questions about their child's privacy or who want to request the removal of submitted information can contact privacy [at] venkogames [dot] com.
How Long We Keep Data
Venko Games retains different categories of data according to specific retention periods.
Raw page-view logs are deleted after 3 days, after which only aggregated daily totals are kept.
Session cookies expire automatically after 30 minutes of inactivity, and their session identifiers are replaced every 30 minutes.
Contact form messages are stored until an administrator manually deletes them.
Problem reports submitted on game pages remain stored with their administrative status, reviewed, resolved, or dismissed, and record which administrator handled them.
User comments posted on game pages remain stored until manually removed by an administrator, and all comments on a game are deleted if that game is removed.
IP addresses recorded for game likes are stored to prevent duplicate votes, and search logs retain query text, user-agents, session identifiers, and irreversible IP hashes.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have legal rights regarding your personal data, including the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of information you have submitted to Venko Games.
If you have submitted a message through the contact form, reported an issue with a game, or posted a comment on a game page and wish to have that information updated or removed, you can send a request to privacy [at] venkogames [dot] com. Because there are no user accounts or registration profiles on the site, requests must include sufficient details, such as the specific comment, message details, or timestamp, to help locate the relevant entry.
You also have choices regarding cookies and technical data collection. You can configure your web browser to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. You can also adjust advertising controls through Google Ads Settings to manage how advertising identifiers are used.
