Privacy
Empty Head has no accounts. We don't sell your data.
Measurement: we count anonymous totals, such as page views, rooms created, players joining, and taps on Share, using Cloudflare Workers Analytics Engine. These counts don't include your name, your card, your room code, your notes, your IP address, or any cookie or device ID, and can't be linked back to you or your device. Totals are kept for about 3 months.
- In a room: the server keeps the name you type, a random seat token, the cards dealt, turns and scores. This lives in that room's storage on Cloudflare and is deleted about two hours after everyone leaves.
- On your phone: your browser's local storage keeps your room code, seat token, the last name you used, and any notes you write. Notes never leave your phone.
- Hosting: the game runs on Cloudflare, which handles your IP address to deliver the site and protect it. We use your IP address only for a short, in-memory limit on how many rooms one address can create, and we don't keep request logs.
- Pictures: most card pictures load straight from Wikimedia (upload.wikimedia.org), so Wikimedia sees your IP address and browser like any website you visit. A few pictures load from this site.

Tips and ad-free donations go through Ko-fi (ko-fi.com/cookedgames), which handles the payment; we never see your card details. For ad-free, we store only your ad-free code, the Ko-fi transaction id, the amount and the number of devices using the code (as random device ids), never your name or email. An ad-free device keeps a small cookie (he_adfree) so we can leave ads out.
