Privacy

The short version: this site has no advertising and no cookies, and no accounts except the optional Ranger Club described below. It counts visits with a cookie-free tool that can’t tell who you are. The games save your progress in your own browser, on your own device.

Who runs this site

Ranger Gamez is a studio of Digital Diaz LLC, which runs this site and makes its games. “We” on this page means Digital Diaz LLC.

The site

The Ranger Gamez site is a set of static pages. It does not set cookies, does not use advertising tags, and does not ask who you are. To see which pages and games get played, it uses Vercel Web Analytics. For each page view it records the page address, the site that sent you, your approximate location (country, region and city, worked out from your IP address, which it does not keep), and your browser, operating system and device type. It uses no cookies, does not keep your IP address, and does not follow you to other sites. Page addresses are sent without anything after a ? or # sign, so codes in invite or class links are never recorded. It also counts three moments in a game, with only the game’s name attached: when you start playing, when you finish a round or level, and whether this browser has played here before on an earlier day. For that last one your browser keeps the date of its first visit in its own storage, and that date is never sent. The games send nothing else to it. Like any website, our host (Vercel) receives your device’s IP address with each request, so it can send you the page and block abuse (for example, too many sign-ups from one address). We don’t use IP addresses to identify, follow or contact anyone.

Your saves

Each game keeps its scores, settings and progress in your browser's local storage for this site. Nothing about you is in it, and it stays on the device you played on. Clearing this site's data in your browser deletes it.

What you type in the game search is never sent anywhere. When a search finds a game, it is kept in this browser (the last five) so you can tap it again; Clear recent under the search box deletes them. If you tap Share this search, the link carries your search after a # sign, and browsers do not send that part to our host.

Security reports

Our pages tell your browser exactly which code is allowed to run on them. If the browser ever blocks something that isn’t ours (for example code someone tried to slip into a page), it tells our host (Vercel, with an Upstash database) so we can find and fix the problem. We keep only a count for each hour: whether it was the site or which of our games, which rule blocked it, and what kind of thing was blocked. We don’t keep the page address, what was blocked, your IP address or anything about your device, and the counts are deleted after 8 days.

Moving your saves

If you ask for a move code on Your saves, your saves are locked with that code on your device, and only the locked copy is sent to our host (Vercel, with an Upstash database), where it waits up to 24 hours for your other device. We can’t read it without your code, and the code never leaves your devices. It is deleted as soon as your saves arrive, or after 24 hours. Nothing about you is stored with it.

Nugget Fred

Everything Nugget Fred remembers stays in your browser. It does not send anything anywhere unless you open the phone report in its settings and choose to share it yourself. Nugget Fred's full policy.

Ed’s Big Night

Your scores and settings stay in your browser. When played on the web, Ed’s Big Night sends an anonymous technical report (app version, browser and device type, screen size, timing numbers and recent errors, with no name, email, location or identifier, and nothing that links one report to another) after runs and when something goes wrong, to help find crashes. It is on unless you switch it off under Options → Share stats. Ed’s Big Night’s full policy.

SweatBook

SweatBook is an Android app only now: it was taken off this website in November 2026. It uses play money only. If you played it here before, its saves stay in your browser on that device until you clear this site’s data.

Ranger Club (optional, 13 and over)

The Ranger Club is the one part of the site you can sign up for, and only if you choose to. Before joining we ask for your birth month and year to check you are 13 or older; that answer stays on your device and is never sent or saved. If you join, the club stores three things on our host (Vercel, with an Upstash database): a nickname picked from a word list, a scrambled (hashed) copy of a random secret key, and how many friends joined with your invite link. For one day after you join with a friend’s link, it also keeps which link that was, so leaving within a day takes back your friend’s point; after a day that is deleted by itself. Up to 3 friends a day count for one link. No email, password, real name, birth date or IP address is stored, and nothing at all is stored about people who open your invite link and don’t join. Your browser keeps your nickname and secret key so it knows you are a member. The Mayor’s nickname and their picked game are shown on the home page. Leaving the club on the club page deletes your membership right away. Children under 13 can play every game but cannot join the club.

Children

Many of our games are made for kids, and anyone can play them without an account. We don’t ask players for their name, email address, location or any other personal information, and children under 13 can’t join the Ranger Club. What does reach us from players is technical: the IP address our host needs to send pages and block abuse, the visit counts described above (Vercel Web Analytics forgets a visitor after 24 hours), Ed’s Big Night’s crash report, and the security reports described above. We use these only to run the site: to deliver pages, see which pages and games get played, find and fix problems, and keep the site secure. We don’t combine them with anything else, and we never use them for advertising, to build a profile of anyone, or to contact anyone. The site has no advertising and nothing else on it tracks visitors. If a child emails us, we use the message only to answer it once, and then delete the child’s email address. Parents and guardians can write to us with any question at the address below.

Android beta (optional)

If you join our Android testers group (a Google Group) and opt in to a test on Google Play, the group shows us the Google account email address you joined with. We use it only to run the tests. You can leave the group and the test at any time; email us if you’d like your address removed.

Emails you send us

If you email us (Report a problem opens an email with the page, game, site version and device type already filled in), we get your email address and what you write. We use them only to answer you and fix problems, and we never add anyone to a mailing list. Ask us and we’ll delete your emails.

How long we keep things

Your choices

Clearing this site’s data in your browser deletes your saves and everything else the site keeps on your device. Leaving the Ranger Club on the club page deletes your membership. To ask what we hold about you, or to have it deleted, email us.
