Privacy
Last updated 11 August 2026.
PokerThangs collects nothing about you, because there is nothing here that could. The app has no accounts, no login, no forms and no analytics. It makes no network requests of any kind after the page finishes loading. Nothing you do in the trainer or the drills leaves your device, because there is no code in this product capable of sending it anywhere.
That is not a policy position we could quietly reverse. It is what the code does, and you can check it: every file this site serves is plain, unminified JavaScript and CSS, and there is not one fetch, XMLHttpRequest, beacon or WebSocket in any of it.
What Is Stored, and Where
Your progress is saved in your own browser's localStorage, which is a private box on your own machine that this site can read and no other site can. It is never uploaded. Three keys are used:
pokerthangs_progress_v1. Attempts, correct answers, streaks, elapsed drill time, and a capped list of trainer decisions as{ id, grade, timestamp }. That is the whole shape.pokerthangs_prefs_v1. One boolean: whether you turned the timer off.pt_home_quiz_v1. Your streak on the two quiz questions on the homepage.
A fourth key, pokerthangs_probe, is written and deleted immediately on load to test whether storage works at all. If your browser blocks it, for example in private mode, the app says so out loud and runs for the session without saving anything.
What Is Not Stored
No name, no email address, no account, no password, no payment details, no IP logging by us, no device fingerprint, no advertising identifier. No cookies are set by this site, for any purpose, including analytics. There are no third-party scripts, no embedded fonts from anyone else's server, no tag managers, no pixels and no trackers. Nothing on this site is shared with anyone, because nothing is collected in the first place.
Deleting It
Open the Progress tab in the trainer and use Reset all progress. That clears the store immediately and permanently. Clearing site data for pokerthangs.com in your browser settings does the same thing and also removes the two smaller keys. There is no copy anywhere else to request, because we never had one.
Hosting
This site is served as static files by Vercel. Like every web host, Vercel's servers see the requests that fetch the pages, which necessarily includes your IP address, in the ordinary course of delivering a web page to you. We do not run analytics on top of that, do not query it, and do not connect it to anything. It is the same information any website's host sees when you load any page.
Children
PokerThangs teaches a game that adults play for money in card rooms. It is not built for, marketed to, or appropriate for children, and we do not knowingly collect anything from anyone of any age, for the reasons above.
Changes
If this ever stops being true, for example if a payment system or an analytics tool is added, this page changes first and says what changed and when. The date at the top is the only version marker there is.
