Almost nothing to collect.
Paperboi has no accounts and no sign-up. It never asks for your name, your email, or a password. There is no profile to leak because there is no profile.
Your progress stays on your device
Your game progress, settings, streaks, and Academy course progress are saved in your browser's storage, on your device only. They never get sent to us. If you clear your browser data, they're gone — and we can't restore them, because we never had them.
Anonymous counting
To tell whether anyone is playing, the game sends tiny anonymous pings when things happen — a round finishes, a shared link is opened, the Academy paywall is viewed. All a ping does is add 1 to a counter: "rounds completed today," "visits from this launch post." One count groups daily finishes by the day a player first visited, so we can tell if people come back. That's all it is — a date and a number. No name, no account, no device ID, and nothing that can identify you is stored. The counters delete themselves after 120 days.
Hosting
The site is hosted by Cloudflare, which delivers the pages to your browser. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes basic connection information (such as your IP address) to serve and protect the site.
If you buy the Academy
Payment is handled by Apple in the app, or by our payment provider RevenueCat in a browser. Paperboi never sees or stores your card details. An anonymous ID kept on your device is what ties the purchase to you, so Restore works without an account.
No sale, no trackers
We don't sell personal information — we don't collect any that identifies you. There are no ad networks and no third-party trackers in the game. The one outside link is the optional TradingView link on the real-thing page, which is labelled there as an affiliate link.
Changes & questions
If what the game collects ever changes, this page changes first. The other half of the deal is on the terms page. Questions: alphapulsx@gmail.com.
