The fine print
Privacy
Pelorus is a game about decisions. Here is what it records while you make them.
What we record
When you play a case, we record which questions you answered and which answer you picked. That is what lets us tell whether a case is too hard, and which decision most people get wrong.
If you play without an account, your run stays in your browser. A random identifier — a string of digits that is not derived from anything about you — is stored alongside it so the same run is not counted twice. It is not linked to a name, an email, or a person unless you later create an account and choose to claim your runs.
If you have an account, we store your runs, your score, and the name you chose to display.
What we never record
We do not record your IP address, your browser’s user-agent string, the site that sent you here, or anything you type outside the fields you deliberately submit. We do not use session recording, and we do not automatically capture your clicks.
We do not sell data, share it with advertisers, or track you across other websites.
Analytics
We use PostHog, hosted in the European Union, to count how many people open a case, finish it, and go on to create an account. It receives only those counts and a random identifier — never the text of a case, never a question, never anything you wrote.
Analytics requests are served from this site’s own domain rather than a third-party one. That is so the counts are not silently distorted by blockers, not so that anything is hidden from you.
How long we keep it
Runs played without an account are deleted after 180 days. Only the anonymous totals — how many people picked each answer — are kept beyond that, and those cannot be traced back to a browser or a person.
If you have an account, your runs are part of your history and are kept until you delete your account.
Your rights
Under the LGPD you can ask what we hold about you, ask for a copy, ask us to correct it, and ask us to delete it. Write to us and we will do it.
