Privacy
Here’s what Core Strike saves and how we use it.
Your progress
Your browser saves unfinished missions and local play history. Clearing your browser data may remove this progress. Unfinished missions can only be continued in the browser where you started them.
We also save completed mission results and gameplay information on our servers to check scores and support the leaderboard. Core Strike uses Cloudflare to host the game and store this data.
Signing in
You can play without an account. Signing in with Google lets you keep your saved completed mission history across devices. To add a guest result to your account, claim it from the browser where you played.
Google shares basic account information, including your name, email address and profile picture if available, so we can recognise your account. These details are not displayed on the leaderboard. We use essential cookies to recognise your guest session and keep you signed in.
The leaderboard
Saving your callsign joins the leaderboard and makes your chosen callsign, eligible scores and mission statistics public, including results from earlier missions saved to your account.
Your Google name and email address are not shown to other players. Choose a callsign you’re comfortable sharing publicly. Copies already viewed by other people cannot be withdrawn.
Understanding how people play
We use PostHog to understand which parts of the game people use, where they get stuck and how we can improve it. This includes visits, gameplay actions, results, tutorial progress and completed sign-ups.
Guest analytics use randomly generated identifiers and include your callsign when you choose one. When you sign in with Google, we send your email address, callsign when available and a stable account identifier to PostHog alongside analytics events. This lets us recognise who uses the game and connect sign-ups with later activity across devices.
We do not send your Google profile name, profile picture, sign-in tokens or feedback messages to PostHog. URL query strings and fragments are excluded. We do not record session replays.
Analytics is on by default. Previously saved analytics opt-outs are respected.
Feedback and your data
Your feedback is private. Include an email address if you’d like a reply. Reports include relevant game details to help us investigate.
Cloudflare handles feedback delivery and spam protection to keep the feedback form usable. Limited technical information is temporarily retained to prevent abuse and duplicate submissions.
Your account history stays saved unless it is deleted. To ask a privacy question or request deletion of your account and associated data, use Send feedback below. Deletion requests are handled by the game’s creator.
