Privacy policy
Irish Farmers keeps the information needed for accounts, reliable game rounds and settings. Optional Google Analytics 4 measures public page visits only after you accept analytics cookies. Declining does not affect access to games.
Information stored
Registration stores your email, screen name, date of birth, UK eligibility confirmation and acceptance version. Passwords are stored as salted scrypt hashes, not readable text. We keep fictional credit balances, round results, timestamps, settings, saved games and support submissions.
Why it is used
Account data supports sign-in and eligibility. Credit activity makes interrupted rounds recoverable and prevents duplicate credit changes. Settings control sound, session reminders and your profile. Support details let the operator investigate the issue you describe.
Where it goes
Account data is stored in a private database on our Google Cloud server in Canada. Brevo processes transactional email, including password recovery. ImprovMX forwards messages sent to hello@irishfarmers.com to the contact inbox. Support submissions include your reply email and message. Palladium screens homepage request metadata, including IP address, browser information and URL parameters. Keitaro records homepage visits, referral information and routing results. The router does not forward your account session cookie, authorization headers, password, email or game records to those traffic services. These providers may process information outside the UK. External promotional links lead to independently operated services with their own terms and privacy notices.
Retention and control
Account and game-activity records remain while needed to operate your account and resolve issues. Support tickets and email delivery records are removed after 90 days. Expired sessions and recovery tokens are cleared automatically. Private daily backups are retained for seven days. You can request access, correction or deletion through Support; backups expire on their retention cycle.
Your requests
Ask for access, correction, deletion or information about processing using the Support form or hello@irishfarmers.com. Do not include passwords, payment details or identity documents. You may also raise a data-protection concern with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
Security and changes
The application uses HTTPS, secure server-side sessions, request checks, rate limits and restricted private-file access. Passwords are stored as salted hashes. No system is risk-free; choose a unique password and keep it private. Updated 21 September 2026.
Optional Google Analytics
If you accept analytics, Google receives public page URLs and titles, referral information, page interactions such as scrolls and outbound links, browser and device information, approximate location and pseudonymous cookie identifiers to help us understand website use. Google may process data outside the UK. We do not send passwords, email addresses, dates of birth, account identifiers, credit balances or game results to Analytics. Analytics collection is disabled on account, authentication, password-recovery, support-form and game-player routes. Do not put personal information in page URLs. Google advertising storage, advertising personalisation and Google signals are disabled. Withdraw consent at any time in Cookie Preferences; this stops future measurement and removes our Analytics cookies.
