Privacy

puckfeed has no accounts and shows no ads. It keeps your choices in your browser, and counts how the site is used so it can get better. Here is all of it.

What your browser keeps

puckfeed remembers your choices in this browser instead of an account. Another browser starts fresh, and clearing this site’s data in your browser’s settings forgets all of it.

  • pf-team

    A cookie, for a year

    Your team, if you pick one, so it comes first everywhere.

  • pf-spoilers

    A cookie, for a year

    That you hide scores, while Hide scores is on.

  • pf-settings

    Browser storage

    The game’s settings: sound and volume, vibration, motion, the touch controls, the view, the level and the period length.

  • pf-hints

    Browser storage

    The first-time tips you’ve seen, so each one shows once.

  • pf-seen

    Browser storage

    On a phone: that you’ve skated with the stick, and that you closed the tip about the Home Screen.

  • pf-daily

    Browser storage

    Your result and your tries each day in the play of the day, for your streak. It keeps the latest 400 days.

  • pf-season-2025-MTL

    Browser storage

    Your season: the result of each game you played or skipped. There is one for each team and season you start.

  • pf-reels-sound

    Browser storage

    Whether you turned the sound on in Reels.

  • pf-reels-swiped

    Browser storage

    That you’ve moved through Reels yourself, so the swipe tip stops showing.

    Cookies, for a year, and browser storage

    PostHog’s, below: a random id for this browser, and one for the current visit.

None of these leaves your browser, with two exceptions. The two cookies go to puckfeed with every page your browser asks for, so it gets the page with your team first or the scores hidden; the site keeps nothing of them. And PostHog’s id goes with what it counts, below.

What puckfeed counts

puckfeed uses PostHog to count how the site is used: which pages and games people like, where they get stuck, and what breaks. It starts only once a page has finished loading, and records:

  • The pages you open, how long you stay and how far you scroll, and the site or link that brought you.
  • What you tap or click, including taps that do nothing.
  • The games you play and how they end, the replays you watch, the plays and results you share, and the search results you open (not what you typed).
  • Your team, if you pick one, and whether you hide scores.
  • Recordings of your visits: the page as you saw it and where you tapped, with the page’s own messages and how long each part of it took to load, so we can see where the site confuses people. Anything you type is hidden, the game’s picture is not recorded, and recordings are deleted after 30 days.
  • Errors, and how fast pages load.
  • Your browser, device, screen size and language, and your IP address, which every request carries.

You are never named, since there are no accounts: a random id saved in this browser (PostHog’s, above) tells one visitor from another. Your browser sends it all to PostHog through puckfeed.com, and PostHog keeps it on its servers in the United States. puckfeed’s server adds a few events of its own on the same id: a play it checked (below), and its own errors.

Nothing is counted from search engines’ crawlers, other bots or browsers run by a program. A puckfeed player embedded on another site loads no analytics at all. PostHog’s privacy policy says how it handles the data.

Where puckfeed runs

Vercel serves the site. Like any web host, it sees each request your browser makes, with your IP address and browser, and keeps a log of them. Vercel’s privacy policy says how it handles them.

The games, plays and scores are stored on Cloudflare. Only puckfeed’s own server reads them there: your browser never connects to Cloudflare.

puckfeed keeps nothing about you on a server: no accounts, no saved games, no scores. When you finish a play you took over, your browser sends the game’s button presses to puckfeed’s server, which plays them again to check your stars and then forgets them.

No ads, nothing sold

puckfeed shows no ads. It doesn’t sell or rent anything about you, and shares it with nobody but the services on this page, which handle it only to run puckfeed.

Videos and social accounts

puckfeed posts its own videos, and each night’s scores, to its own accounts on YouTube, Instagram, Threads, TikTok and Bluesky, with its own tools. Those tools only post: they collect nothing about the people who watch, follow or comment. What you do on those apps is covered by their own privacy policies.

YouTube

puckfeed uses YouTube API Services for one thing: to upload its own videos to its YouTube channel. It never asks you to sign in to YouTube or Google, and it doesn’t read, collect or keep anything from your YouTube or Google account.

The link to the channel at the bottom of the site’s pages is a plain link: nothing goes to YouTube unless you tap it. On YouTube, Google’s Privacy Policy covers what Google collects, and YouTube’s Terms of Service apply. puckfeed has no access to your Google account, so there is nothing to take back; you can see and remove any app’s access to yours in Google’s security settings.

Changes to this page

When what puckfeed keeps or counts changes, this page changes with it, and so does the date at the top.
