Privacy

Last updated 19 October 2026.

Bracketdle is a daily game with no accounts, no sign-up and no email list. This page says exactly what it stores and where.

What stays on your device

The game keeps your calls for the day, your streak, your sound setting and a random player id in your browser's storage. Nothing on your device identifies you; the id is a random code the game makes up the first time you play. Clearing your browser data removes all of it.

What is sent to the game's server

• Your finished bracket. When you have called all seven matchups, your calls are sent with your random id and the day's date, so the server can score them and add your result to the day's curve. Only the score, and whether you called the final, are kept, against the random id and the date.
• Anything you type. A line for the ring announcer is stored with the date and your random id. Lines are checked, by an automatic screen and where needed by a person, before other players hear them.

The server does not store your IP address. It does count requests from each address for a minute at a time to stop floods, and then forgets them.

Hosting

The game runs on Cloudflare, which carries the traffic between your browser and the server and keeps the ordinary technical logs any host keeps, such as IP addresses and the pages requested. Cloudflare's privacy policy covers that. The automatic screen for announcer lines also runs on Cloudflare; it sees the line and nothing else.

Advertising

If the game shows advertisements, they are served by Google AdSense, which may use cookies and similar technologies to measure and personalise ads. Where the law requires it, the game asks for your consent before any advertising cookie is set, and you can decline. How Google uses data in advertising explains the rest.

What the game never does

• It never sells or shares your information with anyone except the services named above.
• It never asks for your name, email address or any account.
• It never uses tracking beyond what is described on this page.
