Last updated: April 2026 — written in plain English so you don't need a lawyer to read it.
This site doesn't ask you to sign up. There's no account, no email collection, no profile. Your scores live in your own browser. The only things being collected are the standard analytics stuff that pretty much every website uses, plus advertising data when ads show up.
If you want the longer version with the technical bits, keep reading.
The site uses something called localStorage to save your stats. That includes your best CPS, total presses, achievements you've unlocked, and your top 10 scores. This data sits in your browser only — it never leaves your device unless you copy it somewhere yourself.
Clear your browser data and it's gone. There's no backup on my end because I don't have it in the first place.
To understand who's using the site and what's working, the site uses Google Analytics. That tracks things like which pages people visit, what country traffic comes from, what browsers and devices are used, and how long people stay. None of this is tied to your name or anything personal — Analytics works on anonymized data.
If you submit something through the contact form, I obviously get the name, email, and message you typed. That info goes into my email inbox and stays there. I don't add it to any list or sell it. If you'd like me to delete an old message, just ask.
The site shows ads through Google AdSense. AdSense uses cookies to figure out which ads might be relevant to you. This is the same ad system half the internet uses, but you have rights here:
I don't control which specific ads show up. Google decides that based on signals from your browsing. If a particular ad bothers you, the report button on the ad itself is the fastest way to flag it.
Here's what cookies you might run into on the site:
You can block cookies entirely through your browser settings if you want. The clicker tool will still work, but your scores won't save and ads might be less relevant.
The site is open to anyone but I don't intentionally market to children under 13, and the site doesn't try to collect data on minors. If you're a parent and you've spotted something worth flagging, the contact page is open.
If I ever update this policy in any meaningful way, the "last updated" date at the top changes. Big changes (like adding a new analytics service or a login system) would also get mentioned somewhere on the site. Small fixes — typos, clearer wording — happen quietly.
Depending on where you live, you might have legal rights around the data collected about you. Generally these include the right to know what's collected, ask for deletion, and opt out of certain processing. If you want to use any of these rights, send a message through the contact page and we'll sort it out.
If you've got a privacy-specific question — not a bug report or feature request — email contact@spacebarclicker.live with "privacy" in the subject line so it doesn't get lost in the regular pile.
