Privacy

Last updated: November 10, 2026. The short version: Pocket Arcade collects almost nothing about you.

What the site collects

Pocket Arcade does not have user accounts, does not ask for your name, email address or any other personal details, and does not use tracking cookies. The games run entirely in your browser.

Scores and preferences

Your best score in each game is saved using your browser's local storage. That information stays on your own device. It is never sent to us or to anyone else, and clearing your browser's site data removes it.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like almost every web host, Cloudflare may process standard technical information (such as your IP address and browser type) in server logs in order to deliver the pages and protect the service. You can read Cloudflare's own privacy policy at cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.

Advertising

Pocket Arcade has applied to show ads through Google AdSense and the application is under review. To support that application, each page loads Google's AdSense code. No ads are displayed while the application is under review.

Google's code runs on each page even before any ads appear, and when it loads, Google may use cookies or similar technologies on your browser. Google's explanation of this is at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites ("How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services"). Our own check on November 10, 2026 found no cookies set on this site's own domain, but Google's services may still set or read cookies on Google's own domains.

If the site is approved and advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, will use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time through Google's Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com). This section will be updated when advertising begins.

Children

The games are suitable for all ages and the site does not knowingly collect any personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes and questions

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with an updated date. Questions can be sent through the Contact page.
