Overview
The False Sun at thefalsesun.net is a fan-built browser page that helps visitors play and learn about the game online. We keep this privacy policy clear, readable, and accessible from the site footer so visitors and search engines can understand how the page works.
We do not sell personal information. We do not run account registration, comments, payment forms, or email signup forms on this site.
Information We Process
When you open the site, basic technical information may be processed by the hosting and security services needed to deliver the page. This can include your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, requested URL, and approximate request time.
This technical information is used to load the website, protect it from abuse, troubleshoot errors, and understand aggregate site performance.
Analytics
We use Plausible Analytics to understand aggregate traffic patterns such as page views, referrers, device
categories, and country-level location. Plausible is designed to be privacy-friendly and does not use
tracking cookies for standard website analytics. The site loads its Plausible analytics script and sends
analytics events through data.1back.link.
We also use Google Analytics 4 to measure visits, page views, referral sources, and device categories. Google Analytics may use cookies to distinguish visits. This measures our website, not activity inside the separately hosted game.
Cloudflare may also process limited analytics and security data as part of hosting, caching, and protecting the website.
Advertising and Monetization
The site may display advertising supplied by a third-party advertising partner such as Monetag (formerly the PropellerAds publisher platform). When advertising is enabled, the partner may process technical identifiers, IP address, browser and device information, approximate location, page activity, and ad interactions to deliver, limit, measure, secure, and improve advertising.
Advertising technologies may use cookies or comparable browser storage where permitted. Available ads and data practices can vary by country, device, consent choice, and the advertising format in use. Visitors can use browser privacy controls, content settings, or applicable consent controls to manage these technologies.
Embedded Game Content
The game player may load content from s.thefalsesun.org after you press the play button. That remote game page may load its own engine files, images, scripts, audio, or local browser storage needed for gameplay.
If the embedded game offers save slots or preferences, those features may rely on your browser storage. You can manage or clear browser storage through your browser settings.
External Links
The site links to external destinations such as YouTube, GitHub, Plausible, and the original hosted game page. Those services have their own privacy practices. Visiting an external link means your interaction is handled by that external service, not by thefalsesun.net.
Cookies and Browser Storage
The website itself does not require an account cookie. Analytics, hosting, and—when enabled—advertising services may process technical request data or use browser storage. The embedded game may also use browser storage for saves, settings, or runtime behavior if you launch it.
Your Choices
You can block scripts, clear browser storage, use private browsing, or use browser privacy controls. Some features, including analytics, embedded gameplay, audio, saves, or fullscreen behavior, may work differently when scripts or storage are blocked.
Children's Privacy
This site is not designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through a linked third-party service, contact that service directly and use your browser privacy controls for this site.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy when the website changes, when analytics or hosting tools change, or when we need to clarify how site features work. The updated date at the top of this page shows the latest version.
