What We Don't Collect
- We don't require email addresses or phone numbers
- We don't use tracking cookies or third-party analytics
- We don't sell or share any data with third parties

Local Storage
Your XP, level, achievements, and preferences are stored in your browser's localStorage. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless you create an account.
WebRTC
Video and audio streams are transmitted directly between participants using WebRTC peer-to-peer connections. Our server facilitates the initial connection (signaling) but does not relay or record media streams.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Google Fonts — for typography (subject to Google's privacy policy)
- Cloudflare CDN — for serving static assets
