Privacy Policy

HeyNakama · Snappy Fox Ltd · Effective 4 October 2026

The short version: HeyNakama is an anonymous game. It does not require an account, ask for a name or email address, sell personal information, or use advertising analytics.

Who is responsible

Snappy Fox Ltd operates HeyNakama. For privacy questions, contact hello@snappyfox.co.uk.

What the game stores on your device

HeyNakama stores game settings and progress in your browser’s local storage, such as your chosen Buddy appearance, sound setting, personal best, run count, streak, and distance. This information stays in that browser unless you clear browser data. It is not sent to our game server by the game.

What the ChatGPT component stores

When HeyNakama runs inside ChatGPT, the component may also save the same non-identifying game profile through ChatGPT’s widget-state mechanism if browser storage is unavailable or partitioned. This is used only to preserve your settings, character choices, and progress inside the component.

Optional coaching

After a run, HeyNakama can offer a “COACH ME” button in capable ChatGPT app hosts. If you choose it, the component sends a one-off factual run summary into your ChatGPT conversation, such as score, distance, commands seen and survived, accuracy, streak, lives used, and failed actions. Coaching data is sent only when you request it. Once sent, that conversation message is handled by ChatGPT under its own controls.

What our service processes

When ChatGPT opens HeyNakama or your browser loads the game, our hosting providers may process limited technical request information, such as IP address, browser or device information, requested URL, date and time, and error or security logs. We use this information only to deliver, secure, maintain, and troubleshoot the service.

HeyNakama’s MCP tools only launch the game. They do not request a ChatGPT account identity, contact details, gameplay profile, or conversation content.

Cookies, sharing, and advertising

HeyNakama does not set advertising or analytics cookies and does not sell or share personal information for targeted advertising. We do not operate a public leaderboard or social profile system in this version of the game.

Service providers

We use hosting and infrastructure providers to make HeyNakama available. Those providers may process technical information on our behalf to operate and secure their services.

Retention

Device-local and component game data remain until you clear them or remove/reset the component where the host supports that. Optional coaching summaries remain part of the ChatGPT conversation in which you requested them and are governed by that service’s controls. Operational logs are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for security, troubleshooting, and service operation, subject to our providers’ retention practices.

Your choices and rights

You can clear local game data through your browser settings, manage or delete the relevant ChatGPT conversation, and choose not to use the optional coaching button. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to ask about personal information we hold about you. Contact us at the address above and we will respond as required by applicable law.

Children

HeyNakama is a general-audience arcade game. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy when the service or applicable law changes. We will post the updated version here and change its effective date.
