Privacy

Dash is a free browser game made by Gabriel Longshaw. This page explains what it stores and how advertising works.

Your progress

Guests are given an anonymous account so coins, items and quests are saved on the game's server. Signing in with Google, Apple or Microsoft keeps that progress and lets you use it on other devices. A copy of your progress is also kept in your browser's local storage.

What other players can see

If you sign in, your leaderboard name, score and optionally your photo can be seen by others. You control this from your profile, including hiding yourself from the leaderboard, which removes your entries.

Polls and feedback

Votes on polls are linked to your account so each person can vote once. Only the totals are public, but Dash's creator can see which accounts voted for which option. You can remove your vote or change it while a poll is open. Feedback and suggestion posts, and replies to any post, are public and show your username, the text you wrote and when you wrote it. You can edit or delete your own posts and delete your own replies at any time.

Advertising

Dash is paid for by ads served by Google AdSense. Ads appear between runs, and you can choose to watch an ad on the game-over screen to double the coins from a run. Watching is always optional.

• Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show and measure ads, and to prevent fraud.
• In the UK, EEA and Switzerland, ads that use cookies only run after you have made a choice in Google's consent message. You can change that choice at any time from the same message.
• You can manage personalised advertising at adssettings.google.com and read how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Services used

Dash uses Firebase (Google) for sign-in and saves, and Vercel for the game's server. These services process the account details needed to run them.
