PLAIN TERMS
Privacy
No accounts, no tracking, and no copy of your boards on our servers.
What we store about you
Nothing. There is no account, no login, no email field and no analytics on this site.
Where your boards are
In your browser's IndexedDB, on the device you built them on. Clearing your browser data deletes them, and we cannot recover them because we never had them. Export a board as JSON if you want a copy you control.
What Wikipedia sees
Your browser requests articles from Wikipedia directly, so Wikipedia receives those requests the same way it would if you visited the site, under the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. We are not in the middle of that traffic and have no log of what you read.
Share links
Pressing Share uploads the board's article titles, card positions and any notes you typed to our server, which returns a short link. Article text stays out of that upload; the person opening the link fetches the articles themselves.
Anyone with the link can open the board, so treat it as public. Links expire after a year. Our server records the IP address of a share request briefly, to cap how many links one address can create per hour, and that counter is deleted within two hours.
Cookies
None. Your theme choice is kept in localStorage, which never leaves the browser.
