This Privacy Policy outlines what information we collect, how it is processed and utilized, and the rights you have concerning your personal data when navigating our interactive educational platform.

1. Information We Collect

FunFacts.world is primarily an educational and exploratory tool. You do not need to register an account or provide personal credentials (like passwords or credit card numbers) to use our maps, quizzes, or interactive 3D visualizations.

We may automatically collect technical data when you access our site, including:

• Interaction Data: Pages visited, time spent on interactive maps, quiz completions, and UI interactions (such as toggling 3D layers or sound effects).
• Local Storage: We use browser localStorage to preserve your in-game preferences (e.g., custom cursor states, sound preferences, and high scores) directly on your device.

2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to ensure proper website functionality, improve browsing experiences, and deliver relevant advertisements.

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for core site performance, security, and interface stability.
• Analytics Cookies: Help us quantify visitor traffic and understand which educational models are most popular.
• Advertising Cookies: Set by authorized third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense) to display relevant advertisements based on your browsing interests.
