Zankō Run Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 11, 2026
Zankō Run is a free game that runs in the browser and as an activity inside Discord. This page explains what data the game stores, what it is used for and what you can do about it. The game does not ask for your real name, your email, your phone number or any payment details, and it shows no advertising.
What data is stored
The game stores the minimum needed for progress, leaderboards and challenges to work. The table summarizes each item, where it is stored and what it is for.
| Data | Where it is stored | What it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Game progress: currencies, skins, missions, local best score and sound setting | In your browser | So you keep your game on that device |
| Random device identifier | In your browser and on the server | To recognize your player profile without asking you for an account |
| Nickname | On the server | To show you on leaderboards and in challenges |
| Scores from each run: points, distance, worlds, orbs, duration, skin used, and the season and weather of the run | On the server | To calculate leaderboards, your best scores and challenge results |
| The Discord server and channel you play from | On the server | To show that server's leaderboard |
| Discord identifier, display name and avatar, only if Discord sign-in is enabled and you authorize it | On the server | To show your Discord name on leaderboards |
| Challenges you create and your attempts at other people's challenges | On the server | So challenges work between players |
What is public
Your nickname, your scores and your challenges are visible to anyone on the game's leaderboards and through its public data interface. For that reason we recommend not using your real name or personal details as a nickname. You can change your nickname at any time from the leaderboard screen.
Who it is shared with
Data is not sold or handed over for advertising. To work, the game relies on technical providers. The hosting and database service where it is published may record technical access data, such as IP address and browser type. When you play inside Discord, Discord's own terms and privacy policy also apply. The web version loads its typefaces from an external font service, which receives the request from your browser.
How long it is kept
Server data is kept for as long as the game is running or until you delete it. Data stored in your browser can be removed at any time by clearing the site's data in your browser settings.
How to delete your data
The game's leaderboard screen has a button labelled "Borrar mis datos" (Delete my data). Once you confirm, your profile, your scores, the challenges you created and your attempts at other people's challenges are removed from the server, and the device is unlinked. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13. Inside Discord, the minimum age Discord requires in each country also applies.

If this policy changes, the date at the top of the page will be updated.
