Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 5, 2026. Applies to retrogm.com and to all RetroGM games on the web, iOS, Android and Windows.
The short version
We do not collect or sell personal data ourselves. There is no account and no sign-in. Your saved games stay on your device. On the website, we count anonymous usage (for example, how many games were started today) to improve the games; these counts cannot identify you. The website may show ads from Google; where it does, Google and its partners may use cookies, as explained under “Advertising” below, and you can choose how they are used.
Data stored on your device
Saved games, settings (language, game speed) and your Pro unlock status are stored locally on your device (browser storage or app storage). They are never sent to us. Deleting the app, or clearing your browser data, deletes them. You can export a save file yourself; what you do with that file is up to you.
Purchases
In-app purchases are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We never see your name, email or payment details; we only receive confirmation that the purchase is valid, so the game can unlock Pro and restore it on your other devices. If we use a purchase-validation service (such as RevenueCat), it receives only an anonymous app user ID and the purchase receipt.
Website
retrogm.com is served by Cloudflare. Like any web server, Cloudflare processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver the site and protect it against abuse; we do not use it to identify you.
Advertising
The games are free. To pay for them, some pages of retrogm.com may show ads served by Google (Google AdSense). Where ads are shown:
- Google and its partners, as third-party vendors, use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure them. Google’s advertising cookies let it and its partners serve ads based on those visits.
- You can turn off personalized advertising in Google’s My Ad Center, or opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies at aboutads.info. You will still see ads, but they will not be personalized.
- In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, we ask for your consent before personalized ads are shown, and you can change your choice at any time from the privacy link on the page. In US states with privacy laws, you can opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your data for advertising the same way.
- How Google uses this information is explained at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
We do not send Google your saved games or any data from the games, and the anonymous usage counts described below are not shared with anyone.
Anonymous usage statistics (website only)
When you play on retrogm.com (including the Windows app, which runs the website), the game sends a few anonymous counters to our server, such as “a game was opened”, “a new career started”, “a season was completed” or “the Pro screen was shown”. To measure whether players come back, the “opened” counter includes how many days have passed since the game was first opened on that device (for example, “1 day”); that date is kept only on your device. We store only daily totals per game and event: no name, email, account, device ID, cookie or IP address is stored, and the totals cannot be linked to you. The game does not send them if your browser asks not to be tracked (Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track). The iOS and Android apps do not send them.
On the retrogm.com home page, we count visits the same way (at most one per device per day, with the page language and the kind of site you came from, such as “search engine” or “direct”) and clicks to open each game. With each home-page visit and each first opening of a game, we add 1 to a daily total for the country of the connection, as reported by our hosting provider (Cloudflare); the IP address itself is never read or stored.
We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page visits without cookies and without identifying visitors (country, browser and page, in aggregate).
Children
The games are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
Your rights
We hold no personal data about you, so there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete. Choices about advertising cookies are made in the consent message, in your browser settings or with Google, as described above. If you have a question, write to support@retrogm.com.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
