Trips, preferences, aliases and personal scores are saved on your device or in your browser. Guest saves do not sync across devices or domains. Optional signed-in account saves sync your current trip, checkpoint, player alias, games played and personal top scores through Firebase Firestore. Clearing site data removes device copies; account saves remain until you delete your account. The browser game does not include an analytics SDK or an online leaderboard. The two free seasons require no login.
Free accounts use Firebase Authentication with email/password or optional Google sign-in. Firebase processes your email, account ID, sign-in information and authentication credentials. Google sign-in also supplies your name and profile picture. We store your chosen player name and game progress in your private Firestore record to save and restore trips and personal scores, and use your account to verify and restore your web Holiday Pass. Password reset and verification emails are sent through Firebase. The game does not store your password. We do not use it to subscribe you to marketing. The game server stores your Firebase user ID and purchase-license information, including its activation and verification status. It does not receive payment-card details. A pass is linked to one game account and checked with Payhip; refunds disable the license.
You can sign out or delete your web account from Account. Deletion removes the Firebase login, cloud trip, personal scores and the server's pass association; it does not remove your device's game saves or your Payhip receipt. You can also request help by email. Account and entitlement records remain while your account is active. Operational logs and provider backups may persist according to their retention policies. Deleting a game account does not request a refund or delete transaction records retained by payment providers.
Payhip and its payment providers handle web Holiday Pass and album checkout, payment, receipts and album delivery under their own policies. They receive the contact and payment information you provide. Android and Apple in-app purchases are handled by Google Play and Apple respectively; store purchases do not transfer to the web edition. See Payhip privacy, Google privacy, and Apple privacy.
The current game uses our own Spring River Radio songs, commercials and station stingers. Native editions play included audio; the web edition loads audio files from Firebase Hosting. There is no third-party live radio connection in this update. We do not collect listening history. Radio volume and mute are controlled in Settings.
Android uses Google AdMob at natural gameplay breaks. Ads are requested without personalization, but Google may process IP addresses, approximate location, device and advertising identifiers, ad interactions, and diagnostic information for delivery, measurement and fraud prevention. The game does not send your saved trip, alias or fish collection to AdMob. Available consent choices appear before ad requests where required and can be reopened in Settings → Privacy. Device settings also offer advertising-ID controls.
Web H5 Games Ads are awaiting Google activation. Paid browser ads are currently disabled.
When enabled, web ads may use cookies, local storage and connection/device information. Read how Google uses partner-site information. The Apple edition does not include the Android AdMob integration.
Firebase and other hosting providers receive ordinary network information, such as IP addresses and requests, to deliver the game and website. External partner and social links open separate services governed by their own policies. The game does not request contacts, microphone or precise location access.
If you email support, we receive your email address and the information you choose to share and use it to respond to your request. Do not send passwords, card details or private license keys in public messages. Contact us about access, correction or deletion at jodyshackelford@me.com. We will update this page as features change.
