Kithland keeps your game on your own device. There are no accounts, no cookies, no analytics and no tracking, and the game sends nothing about you anywhere.

Who we are
Kithland is a game for the web made by Alejandro Pacheco (“we” below). This page covers the game at play.kithland.com and this website, kithland.com. Questions: alepacheco.dev/contact.
What the game stores, on your device
- Your save. One entry in your browser's local storage: your progress, the names you chose, your kith and items, where you are, and your options (text speed, display, sound). It is written by the game as you play and read when you come back. It stays in that browser, on that device, for that address only.
- An offline copy of the game. The game's own files (code, art, sound), kept by the browser so the game opens without a connection. Nothing about you is in them.
- Persistent storage. When you start a journey the game asks the browser to keep its storage rather than clear it when space runs low. Browsers decide this themselves; some show nothing, some ask you.
We can't see any of this. Your save never leaves your device: there is no server for it and no copy of it anywhere else. That also means we can't restore it if your browser clears it (see “Deleting your data” below).
What is sent, and to whom
- Nothing by the game. No analytics, no crash reports, no advertising, no tracking pixels, no third-party scripts or fonts. The only requests it makes are for its own files.
- No cookies. Neither the game nor this website sets any.
- Hosting. Both addresses are served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare receives each request (your IP address, your browser's user agent, the page asked for) to deliver the files and protect the service, under its own privacy policy. We don't add analytics on top, and we don't keep logs of our own.
This website
kithland.com is a plain page: no cookies, no forms, no tracking. It has one line of script, which sends an old Home Screen icon of the game (from when this address was the game itself) on to play.kithland.com. If your browser still keeps the game's old offline copy from this address, it removes it the next time you visit.
Deleting your data
Everything is in your browser, so you're in control: clear the site data for play.kithland.com in your browser's settings (or delete the Home Screen app) and the save and the offline copy are gone. This can't be undone.
Children
Kithland asks for no age, no email and no real name. The name you give your character stays on your device.
Changes
If the game ever starts to store or send anything else (an online backup of saves, say), this page will say so first, with the date above.
