3.4 Device & security data. To protect the game from bots, scripts and abuse, we collect a device fingerprint (derived from browser/hardware characteristics), your IP address (truncated/hashed) and interaction metadata such as tap rhythm. Cloudflare Turnstile is used as a human-verification challenge.
3.5 Cookies & local storage. We use strictly necessary cookies and browser local storage to maintain your session (auth token), remember your cookie consent and store temporary guest gameplay data before you create an account.
