Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 30, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how Pokelike ("the game", "we") handles information when you play at this website. Please read it carefully.

Who We Are

Pokelike is an independent browser game. For privacy-related questions you can contact us at: firepec@gmail.com

Data We Collect

The game itself does not collect, transmit, or store any personally identifiable information on a server. All game progress (Pokédex, achievements, Hall of Fame, settings) is stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage on your own device. This data never leaves your device unless you use the optional Save Code feature to manually back it up.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, each with their own privacy practices:

Google Analytics (GA4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., how many people visit the game, which pages are viewed). Google Analytics uses cookies and may collect:

No personally identifiable information is sent to Google Analytics. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy

Advertising (Publift Fuse)

We display advertisements through Publift's Fuse platform, which uses Google Ad Manager (including Google AdSense) and other advertising partners to serve ads. Google and these partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. This may include:

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info. Google's advertising privacy policy: policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Publift's privacy policy: publift.com/privacy-policy

Your Privacy Choices & Consent

In regions covered by the GDPR (Europe) and CCPA (California), we use a Consent Management Platform (Quantcast, via Publift) to ask for and record your advertising consent. You can review or change your consent choices at any time using the tool below:

Sprite & Data Assets

Pokémon sprites and data are fetched on-demand from the PokéAPI public API. These requests include only the species ID needed to retrieve the asset and are subject to PokéAPI's own terms. No personal data is included in these requests.

Cookies

The game itself does not set any cookies. Cookies may be set by Google Analytics and by our advertising partners (Publift / Google) as described above. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings, or adjust ad consent using the privacy tool above.

Children's Privacy

This game is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the game after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
