This page explains what Inklination keeps when you play, in plain words. The game is run by Inklination.
The short version: there are no accounts, we never ask for your name or email, and your stats stay on your own device.
What stays on your device
- Your progress in today's puzzle, so a refresh doesn't lose it.
- Your stats and streak.
- A random id for your device. It is a string of letters and numbers that says nothing about who you are.
These are kept in your browser's storage. Clearing your browser data for this site removes them.
What our server keeps
- Your result for each puzzle: the score, whether you cracked it, and your device's random id. We use these to work out "Better than X% of players".
- The rules you type as guesses, with the same random id. We read them to improve how the game understands wordings.
- Simple counts of how the game is played: that a puzzle was started or finished, how many tests and guesses it took, and whether the proof round, a hint or Share was used. They are kept with the same random id and help us make the puzzles fairer.
- Your internet address, for about two minutes, to stop the game being flooded with requests. It is not kept with your results or guesses.
Please don't type personal details into the guess box.
Who else is involved
- Anthropic. When the quick check can't judge a guess, the words you typed are sent to Anthropic's Claude service to be judged. Nothing else about you is sent with them.
- Cloudflare. The game is hosted on Cloudflare, which handles requests on its way to us, as any web host does. We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It sets no cookies and does not identify you.
Advertising
The game does not show ads at the moment, and sets no advertising cookies.
The game shows ads from Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to show and measure ads, and to personalise them if you agree. Where the law requires it, you are asked for your choice before any personalised ads are shown, and you can change it at any time.
You can read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Children
The game is suitable for all ages and does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone.
