Simulation Score

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 December 2025

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how The SimulationScore ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website and services (the "Service").

We aim to keep stories anonymous and do not ask for your name or email to submit a Story. However, we still collect certain technical information and Story content, and we may use third-party tools like Google Analytics and advertising networks.

By using the Service, you agree to this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

  • Story content you submit: The text of any Story you submit, along with any optional fields you choose to provide (for example, a title, tags, or descriptions). We ask you not to include names, contact details, or other identifying information.
  • Technical and usage data (automatically collected): This can include your IP address, browser type and version, device identifiers, operating system, referring and exit pages and URLs, dates and times of visits, pages viewed, and interactions with the Service. This information may be collected via server logs, cookies, and similar technologies.
  • Analytics data: We use tools like Google Analytics to understand how people use the site (for example, page views and traffic sources). These tools may set cookies or use similar technologies to collect usage information.
  • Advertising and third-party tools: We may use ad networks or similar tools (for example, Google advertising products) that collect or receive information from our site and elsewhere on the internet to provide measurement services and targeted ads.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate and improve the Service: Display and manage Stories (including editing and moderation), maintain and secure the site, and analyze usage and performance.
  • Promote the Service: Feature Stories (in whole or in part) on the site and on our social media channels, and use Stories in marketing or promotional content, as allowed under our Terms of Use.
  • Analytics: Understand how people find and use the site, and improve design, content, and features.
  • Legal, safety, and rights protection: Comply with applicable laws, respond to legal requests or enforce our Terms, and protect our rights, property, and safety, and that of our users and the public.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We and our service providers may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to remember basic preferences (for example, language), measure traffic and usage (for example, via Google Analytics), and support advertising and performance measurement.

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings (for example, block or delete cookies), but doing so may affect how the site works.

5. Google Analytics

We may use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use the site.

Information generated by the cookie about your use of the site (including your IP address) may be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in various countries. Google uses this information to evaluate use of the site, compile reports for us, and provide other services related to website activity and internet usage.

For more information on how Google uses data, see: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

To opt out of Google Analytics, you can use the browser add-on available at: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

6. Advertising and Third-Party Partners

We may use third-party advertising and measurement tools (for example, Google Ads or similar services). These third parties may set cookies or similar technologies, collect or receive information from our site and other sites, and use that information to provide measurement services and targeted ads.

You can learn more about how Google uses advertising data and your choices at: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

7. How We Share Information

We may share information in the following ways:

  • With service providers: With trusted third parties who help us operate, analyze, and improve the Service (for example, hosting providers, analytics providers, and ad networks). They are allowed to use the information only to provide services to us.
  • For legal reasons: When we believe in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request; enforce our Terms or protect our rights; or protect the safety of any person.
  • In business transfers: In connection with a merger, sale of assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense (for example, we do not sell email lists), but advertising and analytics partners may receive or collect information via cookies and similar tools as described above.

8. Data Retention

We may retain Stories and related content for as long as needed to operate and promote the Service, or until we decide to remove them. We also retain logs and analytics data for a period consistent with our operational needs and our providers' policies (for example, Google Analytics' data retention settings).

We may also retain information as required by law or to resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

9. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights over your information, such as rights to request access to the information we hold about you, request deletion of Story content or other data that can reasonably be linked to you, or object to or restrict certain processing.

Because we aim to keep Stories anonymous and do not collect names or emails, our ability to identify or locate specific submissions may be limited.

To make a request, contact us at: admin@kijake.com. We may need to ask you for additional information to help us locate your Story or request.

10. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted a Story or other information in violation of this policy, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps (such as removing the content).

11. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. Our Service does not currently respond to DNT signals. However, you can use other tools (such as browser settings and the opt-outs described above) to control cookies and tracking.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date and may provide additional notice (for example, on the site) if the changes are material. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy.
