Privacy
The game has no sign-up, cookies, ads or trackers, and collects no personal data.
Everything the game remembers lives in your browser's localStorage, on your device, and is never sent to any server:
ps:save- Poké Dollars and the upgrades bought in the Poké Mart.
ps:settings- Settings: music and effects volume, sound on or off, damage numbers and screen shake.
ps:lang- Your language (Portuguese or English).
ps:muted- Only if you played an older version: the mute flag from before Settings existed. The game only reads it and no longer writes it.
To delete this data, clear the site data in your browser settings.
Sprites, sounds and fonts are served by this site, with no calls to third-party services. The site is hosted on Vercel which, like any web server, may log technical access data (such as IP addresses) to run and protect the service.
To know how many people visit and play, the site uses Vercel Web Analytics and its own Umami instance, on our own server. They count visits anonymously and in aggregate (page, country, browser, device and referring site) and, in Umami's case, a summary of each run (starter Pokémon, the minute and level you reached and whether you won), with no cookies and without identifying you or following you across sites.
