Purringdoku — Privacy Policy
Effective 11 November 2026. Applies to Purringdoku on the web and on Android.
The short version
We ourselves do not collect or store any personal data about you. Purringdoku has no accounts and no analytics or tracking code of our own. It does show advertising, supplied by Google AdSense, and the advertising provider receives your IP address and an identifier for your device or browser when an advert loads. That is described under “Advertising” below. The game itself runs on your device once it has loaded and still plays with no connection; only the adverts need one.
Who we are
Purringdoku is made and published by Elixisis (elixisis.digital). "We" in this policy means Elixisis. Our contact address is at the bottom of this page.
What is stored, and where
Your game is saved only on your own device, in your browser's localStorage. It is not sent to us or to anyone else. It consists of:
- which rungs you have solved, your best time on each, and your run of days on the daily board;
- your settings, such as whether sound is on.
It stays on your device until you remove it. We set no retention period because we keep no copy: we cannot see any of it, and we cannot restore it if it is lost.
How to delete it
Uninstall the app, or clear the site data for Purringdoku in your browser or in your device's app settings. That removes the data Purringdoku has saved on that device. We hold no copy anywhere else.
What our host and the stores see
- Hosting. The game's files are delivered from
games.elixisis.digitalby our hosting provider. Like every web server, it automatically receives the technical details your device sends with a request, such as your IP address, browser type and the time, in order to deliver the files and keep the service secure. We do not use this information to identify you, we do not add anything to it, and we do not combine it with any other data. - Google Play. If you install the Android app, Google provides the download and handles it under Google's own privacy policy. Google shows us only aggregate figures such as the number of installs and anonymous crash reports.
Children's privacy
Purringdoku contains no real-money gambling, no chat and no links to social media. It does show advertising, and we ask for it to be non-personalised, which means it is chosen from the page it appears on rather than from anything about the person looking at it. Purringdoku is not directed at children under 13, and we ourselves collect no data from anyone, including children.
Sharing and selling
We do not sell or rent personal data, and we hold none ourselves. The one thing that does leave your device is what the advertising needs: when an advert loads, Google AdSense receives your IP address and an identifier for your device or browser, directly from your device, in order to show adverts, limit how often you see the same one, measure them and prevent fraud. Nothing about your game is included.
Permissions
Purringdoku does not use your location, camera, microphone, contacts or files. The optional vibration feedback uses the standard vibration feature and reads no data. The Android app's package lists the notification permission, which the tool that builds the app adds by default. The game sends no notifications. If your phone ever asks whether to allow them, you can say no: nothing in the game depends on it.
Security
The game is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) and carries no tracking code of our own. Apart from the advertising described below, it makes no requests to any server other than the one it is loaded from. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect the service.
Advertising
Purringdoku shows advertising supplied by Google AdSense: one advert at the bottom of the menu screen, never on a board and never during play. We are paid a share of what those adverts earn. We give Google AdSense nothing about you, because we hold nothing about you — but an advert is loaded from their servers, so your device contacts them directly, and they can see your IP address and what kind of browser you are using, as any site you visit can. What they do with that is covered by their privacy policy, not this one.
We ask for non-personalised adverts: chosen from the page they sit on, not from a profile of the person reading it.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies, similar storage on your device and device identifiers to serve these adverts. Non-personalised adverts still use them, to limit how often an advert is shown, to measure adverts and to prevent fraud. Google explains this at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services, and its privacy policy is at policies.google.com/privacy. You can switch off personalised advertising from Google at Ads Settings, or from many advertising companies at once at aboutads.info. On Android you can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, privacy laws such as the GDPR, the UK GDPR, South Africa's POPIA or California's CCPA may give you the right to ask what personal data an organisation holds about you and to have it corrected or deleted. We hold none, so there is nothing for us to give you, correct or delete; everything Purringdoku saves is already in your hands, on your device. If you have a question or think we have this wrong, write to us and we will respond within a reasonable time.
Anything Google AdSense holds from showing you adverts is held by them, not by us; requests about it go to them, through the links under “Advertising” above.
You also have the right to complain to the data-protection regulator where you live. In South Africa that is the Information Regulator.
Changes to this policy
If Purringdoku ever changes in a way that affects your privacy, we will update this page and the date at the top. Please check this page from time to time.
