What data I collect

Short answer: none.

I don't collect, track, or share any personal information about you. My games save your progress locally on your own device, and that's it. I don't have access to it, and it doesn't get sent anywhere.

How game saves work

Local Storage

Some games use your device's local storage to automatically save your progress. That way, you can pick up where you left off. Everything stays on your device.

Password-based Save / Load

Some older games use passwords instead. These don't save anything to your device, just give you a code you can enter to return to where you were.

Non-saving data games

Yep, some of my games don't save at all. No settings, no progress, nothing. When you close the game, it forgets everything.

Data Usage

Since I don't collect any data, there’s nothing to use, sell, or share. Your progress, your settings, your game, it's all yours and it stays on your device.

External Links

Some games might include links to other missing the fire content. Even if you click them, your privacy stays intact, I still don't collect anything.

Platform-specific storage

Windows

My Windows games store everything locally. They're unsigned, so you'll probably get a SmartScreen warning the first time you run them. Just click "More info" -> "Run anyway". No data is sent anywhere.

macOS

Same deal. Saves are local only. You'll have to bypass Gatekeeper manually (right click -> Open -> Open), but nothing leaves your device.

Linux

Your data stays on localhost. You run the game with start.sh, and progress stays on your machine, no uploads, no tracking.
