Privacy Policy

Pickers Quest! · Last updated July 4, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Pickers Quest! ("the Game," "we," "us") handles information when you play, whether on the web or through our Android app. We keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the Game. We do not sell your personal information, and the Game contains no advertising.

Playing as a guest

You can play the entire Game without creating an account. When you do, we store a single anonymous session identifier in a cookie (named picker_session) on your device. This lets us save and reload your game progress. It does not contain your name, email, or any other personal information.

Optional accounts

Creating an account is optional and only exists so you can save your progress and access it across devices. If you choose to sign up, we collect:

• Your email address — used to sign you in, send password-reset emails, and secure your account.
• A password — stored in encrypted/hashed form; we never see or store your password in plain text.

Account sign-in and password management are handled on our behalf by Clerk, a third-party authentication provider, in accordance with their privacy practices.

Game data we store

To make the Game work, we store your gameplay progress — such as your character level, in-game currency, inventory, and settings — on our servers. For guests this is tied to the anonymous session identifier above; for account holders it is tied to your account.

What we do NOT do

How we use information

• To save, load, and sync your game progress.
• To let you sign in and recover your account.
• To operate, maintain, and improve the Game.
• To protect against fraud, abuse, and security issues.

Data retention & your choices

We keep your data for as long as you use the Game. You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us at the address below. Deleting your account removes your saved progress.

Data security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS) and stored on secured infrastructure. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Game after changes means you accept the updated policy.
