Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 November 2026

Filmle (filmle.io) is a free daily guessing game about TV and film characters. This page explains what information is used when you play, and the choices you have. If you have any questions, email hello@flarepathdigital.com.

1. What we collect

You don’t need an account to play, and we don’t ask for your name or email address. We don’t knowingly collect personal information directly from you, apart from anything you choose to type into the “Suggest a character” box (see section 5).

2. Information saved on your device

To remember your guesses, streak and statistics, the game saves a small amount of data in your browser’s local storage. This data stays on your device. We can’t see it, and you can remove it at any time by clearing your browser’s site data.

3. Hosting and technical data

Filmle is hosted by Cloudflare. When you visit, Cloudflare processes technical information such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, in order to deliver the site and keep it secure. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.

Leaderboards

Filmle and Soccle have optional leaderboards. If you choose to join, we store the nickname you pick, a random identifier generated in your browser (stored only as a one-way hash), and your daily results, points and streaks. We do not ask for your name, email address or any sign-in. Nicknames are shown publicly, so please do not use your real name. We may remove nicknames that break our rules. A short-lived, one-way hash of your connection is kept only to limit abuse. To have your leaderboard entry removed, contact us and tell us your nickname.

4. Advertising and cookies

We also use Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics to understand how many people play and which games are popular. In the UK and European Economic Area, analytics cookies are only used if you consent through our consent message; you can change your choice at any time using the privacy and cookie settings link on the site.

Filmle uses Google AdSense to show advertising, which helps us keep the game free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure how ads perform.

• Google’s use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads to you based on your visit to Filmle and/or other sites on the internet.
• In the UK and European Economic Area, we ask for your consent before personalised ads are shown. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the privacy and cookie settings link on the site, where available, or by clearing your cookies and reloading the page.
• You can manage ad personalisation in your Google account at adssettings.google.com, or opt out of personalised advertising at aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.eu.
• Learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

5. Character suggestions

If you send a suggestion through the “Suggest a character” box, we store the text you typed so we can review it. Please don’t include personal information in your suggestion.

6. Sharing results

The share buttons let you copy your result or open sites such as Reddit or Instagram. Once you leave Filmle, those sites’ own privacy policies apply.

7. How we use and keep information

We use the technical information described above only to run, secure and improve Filmle. We don’t sell your personal data. We keep information only as long as needed for these purposes, or as required by law.

8. Your rights

Under UK GDPR and similar laws you can ask what personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, object to certain processing, or withdraw consent you’ve given. Email hello@flarepathdigital.com and we’ll respond within a reasonable time. You also have the right to complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.

9. Children

Filmle is a general-audience game and isn’t directed at children under 13. We don’t knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
