| Item | Why | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Nickname | Naming you in the game | Until you delete the account |
| Email address | Identifying the account so you can log back in | Until you delete the account |
| Password hash | Letting you log in without us ever holding the password | Until you delete the account |
| Sign-up date | Support and abuse handling | Until you delete the account |
| Google account identifier | Only if you chose to sign in with Google, so we recognise you next time | Until you delete the account |
That is everything. No real name, no address, no date of birth, no phone number and no payment detail is ever asked for, because nothing on this site has a price. Your password is stored as a one-way hash and nothing else. Lawful basis: performance of a contract, namely the account you asked us for. Delete it from your account page and all of it goes immediately.
| Item | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Coin balance, level, missions, game settings | Continuing your game | Until you clear browser data |
| Age confirmation | Not asking again on every page | Until you clear browser data |
| Cookie choice | Remembering your consent | Until you clear browser data |
All of that sits on your device and is never sent anywhere.
Using Google is entirely optional and the email form does the same job. If you pick it, Google asks you to approve the request and then returns three things: a permanent account identifier, your email address, and your first name, which we suggest as a nickname. We ask for no more: no contacts, no calendar, no Drive, no profile picture, and no ability to do anything on your behalf. The password stays between you and Google. Whatever Google does on its side is governed by Google's privacy policy.
Three things are stored: the identifier, the email address, and the nickname you confirm. Delete your account and all three are deleted immediately. Our access can be revoked at any moment under "Third-party apps with account access" in your Google account; nothing breaks, you just use the email form to sign in afterwards. There is no Google script on these pages, so nothing goes to Google unless you choose the Google button. Lawful basis: performance of a contract.
With "Accept all", Google Analytics and Google Ads tags are loaded to measure visits and to see whether an advert led to play — a first spin, for example. What Google receives is your IP address, information about the device, and those events. With "Essential only", the tags still run but in consent mode, which means no cookies and no advertising identifiers. Lawful basis: consent.
The host retains standard request logs briefly, for security reasons. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.
At any time you can see what we hold, have it put right or deleted, restrict or object to how it is used, and withdraw consent. The delete button on your account page clears the account side at once; clearing the site's data in your browser clears what is left. You can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at priv.gc.ca.
You must be 19 or over to use Russet Pier. The coins are virtual, hold no monetary value, and there is no way to buy, sell, withdraw or exchange one. Nothing is for sale, no prize has real-world value, and doing well here says nothing at all about real-money gambling.
