Your browser remembers a few settings so you don't have to set them again: your captain name, sound on or off, and which panels you've hidden. They never leave your device. Clear your browser's site data to delete them.

While you play

The game server needs your captain name, your ship and your IP address to run the game and to stop people flooding it with fake players. This is kept in memory only while you're playing, and is gone when you leave. Nothing is saved to a database or a file.
