Privacy

📦 What we keep

• Your account: your username and password (stored scrambled, so nobody can read it), your cartoon avatar and your settings. We never ask for a real name, email, birthday, phone number or photo. Guests get a made-up name.
• Your play: stars, scores, stats and leaderboard places, saves and saved games, the daily challenges you finished, and which games you play and for how long.
• Friends and chat: your friends and the players you blocked, your chat messages, and reports you send or that are made about you.
• Notifications: only if you turn them on, the address your browser gives us to send them.
• Kids' accounts: which grown-up manages the account, and the games and age they picked.
• Two cookies: one keeps you signed in; the other is a random number (no name in it) that lets us count plays and keep a guest's progress on this device. No advertising or tracking cookies.
• Server records: short technical notes (which page was asked for, errors) that help us fix problems.

🎯 Why

To run the games (so your progress follows you to every device), to show leaderboards and daily challenges, to let friends play and chat together, and to keep chat safe. That's all.

⏳ How long

• A sign-in lasts 30 days, then you sign in again. The random-number cookie lasts a year.
• Invite links stop working after 24 hours. Chat inside a game played a move at a time keeps only its newest lines.
• Error reports from games are kept only until the server restarts.
• Everything else (your account, progress, friends and messages) is kept until the account is deleted, so it is there when you come back.

👀 Who sees it

• Friends see your username, avatar and which game you are playing. Everyone else only sees how many people are in a game.
• Leaderboards, open tournaments and games with open seats show your username and avatar to other players.
• Messages are only seen by the friend you send them to, and by us when a message is reported or held back by the safety filter.
• Nobody else. No ads, no selling, no sharing, and no third-party trackers. We count plays ourselves, on our own server.

A few outside services do help run the site: the pages load their fonts from Google Fonts; notifications are delivered by your browser's own notification service and never include what a message says; and when the AI safety reviewer is on, the words of a chat message (not who sent it) are checked by an AI service that is not allowed to keep them.

👪 Kids' accounts

A parent can make an account for a kid (just a name), pick the kid's games and see what the kid played. Kids' accounts start with chat locked to pre-written phrases. See For parents for how chat is kept safe.

🗑️ Deleting your data

• One game: open the game menu and tap Reset game (at the bottom). It wipes your progress in that game.
• A kid's account: the parent opens the game menu, taps their name at the top, then Your kids → the kid → Remove. The account and everything it saved are deleted for good.
• Your whole account: there's no delete button yet. Contact us (on GitHub) with your username and we'll delete the account and everything tied to it.

🚩 Reporting a player

1. Open the game menu (the button in the corner of any game).
2. Tap Friends & chat, then tap the player's name (players you met in a game are under 🕘 Recent players → View).
3. Tap Report or Block.

In a chat, every message from someone else has its own Report button. Reports are read by a real person.
