Privacy

Paint the World is designed to be completely anonymous.

What we store

Only canvas cell data: cell id, colour, and updatedAt timestamp. That's it.

What we do NOT store

• No accounts, no sign-in
• No user identifiers (no userId, sessionId, deviceId)
• No IP addresses in the database
• No cookies or tracking pixels
• No browser fingerprints or user agents
• No analytics or third-party trackers

Rate limiting

To prevent abuse, we use a short-lived in-memory rate limiter. It operates on transient network information that is never written to disk and expires within seconds.

No profiles. No followers. No comparison.
