Pipe Rescue — Privacy
No ads. No accounts. No data sold. Made by a plumber dad in Quincy, MA for his own kid. This page lists everything the game sends anywhere, in plain words.
Saved on your device only
Progress, the child's first name typed on the certificate, difficulty, and earned tools are stored in your browser's local storage. They never leave the device, and clearing the browser clears them.
Play statistics (first-party)
The game reports anonymous play events to our own analytics server (analytics.thejohnsonbros.com — we run it; no Google, no ad networks):
- game started / floor finished (which floor, difficulty, how long)
- boss beaten, certificate shown or shared
- game left mid-floor (which floor)
- how you found the game (a code like "card" or "school" from the QR link)
No names, no message content, no location beyond what any web request carries. If your browser sets "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control, the game sends nothing at all.
Error reports
If the game crashes, it reports the error message, the place in the code, and the browser type to the same server, so we can fix it. At most one report per 10 seconds, and Do Not Track turns this off too.
The certificate
Sharing or printing the certificate is entirely manual — the image is drawn on your device and goes only where you send it.
