What we collect
Guest play can store Sudoku progress, preferences, stats, and completion state in this browser with localStorage. If you sign in with Google, we receive basic account profile information needed to identify your account.
Progress and cloud storage
Signed-in progress may be stored in the site's independent Cloudflare D1 database, including current games, daily completion state, unlimited progress, stats, preferences, and timestamps used for sync conflict handling.
