Privacy Policy

Back to the atlas

JellyAtlas is an independent editorial desk that maps sweet puzzle games published on Google Play in Australia. This notice explains, in plain language, what personal information the site handles, why, and what you can ask us to do about it. It is written to meet the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the thirteen Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

1. Who is responsible

JellyAtlas operates the website at jellyatlas.com from the Australian Capital Territory. We are a small editorial team rather than a company with a shopfront, and the fastest way to reach a person is team@jellyatlas.com. Every request described on this page can be sent to that address.

2. Information you choose to give us

The only form on the site is the update request in the Updates section. It asks for two things and records a third:

  • your email address, which is required, because that is where the update notice is sent;
  • your name, which is optional and used only to open the message politely;
  • the fact that you ticked the consent box, together with the date and time, so we can show that a message was sent with your agreement.

There is no telephone field on this site and we never ask for one. We do not ask for postal addresses, dates of birth, identity documents or payment details, and there is no checkout anywhere on jellyatlas.com.

3. Information collected automatically

Like any website, jellyatlas.com is served by a web host that keeps technical logs. These typically record the IP address of the request, the browser and operating system string, the page requested, the referring page and the time. We use them to keep the site available and to investigate faults. We do not build advertising profiles from them, and we do not run any analytics or measurement script on this site.

4. Browser notifications and OneSignal

If you accept notifications, our push provider OneSignal creates a subscription record for that browser. It contains a push token issued by your browser vendor, the browser and platform type, the subscription status, and the tags we attach: the domain jellyatlas.com, the name you gave, and the word identifying the form as the source. If you subscribed through the form, your email address is passed to OneSignal so the same person is not messaged twice.

None of this happens before you agree. The OneSignal script is not present in the page source; it is added by our own script only after you press Accept on the consent bar or submit the form with the consent box ticked. OneSignal acts as our processor and stores data on servers outside Australia, chiefly in the United States. By accepting, you agree to that overseas disclosure for the purpose described here (APP 8). If you press Decline, we delete the locally stored keys and the OneSignal database from your browser.

5. Why we handle this information

  • To send the update notices you asked for — on the basis of the consent you gave, as required for commercial electronic messages by the Spam Act 2003 (Cth).
  • To operate, secure and repair the website — our legitimate function as the publisher.
  • To answer questions, corrections and complaints you send to the desk.

We do not use your details for any purpose you would not expect from the paragraph above, and we do not make automated decisions about you.

6. Who else sees it

Your details are never sold, rented or traded. They are visible to three kinds of recipient only: the hosting provider that serves these pages, OneSignal as the push and email delivery processor, and any Australian authority that makes a lawful request. Studios whose games appear in the atlas receive nothing from us — not your address, not your name, not the fact that you read their entry.

7. How long we keep it

Subscriber records live until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove them. After that we keep the bare record of the consent and its revocation for twelve months, so we can answer any question about why a message was sent. Server logs are kept for up to twelve months and then discarded.

8. Your rights under the APPs

  • Access. Ask what personal information we hold about you and we will tell you, normally within thirty days and at no cost (APP 12).
  • Correction. Ask us to fix anything inaccurate or out of date (APP 13).
  • Deletion. Ask us to erase your subscriber record; we act on this without argument.
  • Stopping messages. Every email carries a working unsubscribe link. Browser notifications stop as soon as you block them in your browser settings for this site, or tell us to remove the subscription.

If you are unhappy with how we handled a request, write to the desk first and we will look at it again. If you are still not satisfied, you may complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au, which oversees the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

9. Keeping it safe

The site is served over HTTPS. Access to the subscriber list is limited to the people who write the update notices and is protected by two-factor authentication with our provider. We keep as little as possible, which remains the most reliable protection there is. If a breach ever created a serious likelihood of harm, we would notify affected people and the Commissioner under the Notifiable Data Breaches scheme.

10. Age

JellyAtlas is written for readers aged 15 and over, and the request form is not intended for anyone younger. We do not knowingly keep details from a person under 15; if you believe a child has subscribed, write to us and we will remove the record.

11. Changes to this notice

If we change how information is handled, we will replace this page and move the date at the top. This version takes effect on 18 August 2026. Cookies and local storage are described separately in our Cookie Notice, and the rules for using the site are in the Terms of Use.
