Privacy policy
Last updated October 8, 2026
Silver & Sails is a family game, and it's built to collect as little as possible. The short version: we don't ask who you are, we don't track you, and we don't sell anything about you.
What we don't collect
- No accounts, logins, email addresses, phone numbers or real names are required to play.
- No advertising, and no advertising or analytics trackers in the game.
- No location, contacts, camera, microphone or device identifiers.
What the game stores
On your device. The game keeps your current progress and settings in your browser's local storage, so it's there next time you open it. Clearing your browser data removes it.
Family cloud saves (optional). If you use a family code, the game saves your captains to our database so you can load them on another device. A save contains the family code, game progress, and any captain, crew, ship or pet names the player typed in. That's all. We ask players not to use full real names. Saves are stored with Supabase, our database provider, and can only be read by someone who has the family code.
Ordinary server logs. Like nearly every website, our hosting provider (Vercel) and database provider (Supabase) keep short-lived technical logs, such as IP addresses and request times, to run and protect the service. We don't use them to identify or profile players.
Fonts. The game and this site load typefaces from Google Fonts, which means your browser contacts Google's servers. See Google's privacy policy.
Purchases
When the full game unlock goes on sale, payment will be handled by a third-party payment company that acts as the seller of record. They collect the payment details and the email address needed for a receipt, under their own privacy policy. We receive a confirmation that a purchase was made and which family code to unlock. We never see or store card numbers. A purchase should be made by a parent or guardian.
Children
The game is made for children and families, and it is designed so that children can play without giving us any personal information. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Because players can type names into the game, we encourage families to use nicknames or made-up names. If you believe a child has entered personal information in a cloud save, contact us and we will delete it.
Deleting your data
You can delete any captain from inside the game. To delete everything saved under a family code, email us with the code and we'll remove it.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update the date above. If a change affects how we handle information, we'll say so plainly on this page before it takes effect.
