Privacy

The application

It sends nothing anywhere. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no telemetry and no crash reporting. Nothing about what your child does leaves the computer. The list of sites, the play-time limit and every setting live in a file on your own disk.

It makes exactly one request of its own accord: when you press Check for updates, it asks GitHub whether a newer release exists. Nothing is sent with that request beyond what any HTTP request carries, and it happens only when you press the button.

Websites you add are ordinary websites. What they collect is between you and them, which is why every entry in the catalogue links to that site’s own terms.

This website

This site uses Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages get read. How it starts depends on where you are, because the law does:

• In the EU, the EEA, the UK and Switzerland it does not start at all until you say yes. Until then nothing is loaded from Google — not the script, not a cookie, not a request. The UK gained a statistical-purposes exemption in February 2026, but it does not cover Google Analytics, because that sends the data to a third party.
• Everywhere else it starts on, a notice says so once, and you can turn it off in a click. Turning it off also deletes the cookies it had already set.

Your region is worked out from your browser’s own time zone. There is no geo-IP lookup: asking a third party where you live, in order to decide how carefully to treat your privacy, would be an odd way to begin.

If you have Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control switched on, nothing loads anywhere in the world, whatever the local rules permit.

When it is on, it records the usual: a page address, a rough location from a truncated IP, a browser and device type, and which site sent you here. It also counts which buttons and links on this site are pressed, by the words on them and the part of the page they are in, so we can tell whether anyone downloads the app or opens a playground app. Nothing you type is sent, and neither is anything about who you are. Advertising features and ad personalisation are switched off, so nothing is used to build a profile or target anything at you.

Your answer is remembered in your own browser, in localStorage, not in a cookie sent to anyone. Change your mind whenever you like.

Hosting

The site is static files served by GitHub Pages, and downloads come from GitHub Releases. GitHub keeps its own server logs of requests to both, which this project does not control and cannot see. Their privacy statement covers that.
