Privacy and Storage in Binary Code Weight Spread

The official website of k8. This page describes the data storage and network observations for the Binary Code Weight Spread demo. These observations are limited to what is visible in the browser environment and do not establish a comprehensive privacy policy for an outside operator.

Observed Storage and Network Requests

The demo interface relies on specific client-side mechanisms to maintain state and render content. These observations are based on the game source and template declarations.

  • Local Storage: The game source uses localStorage to store the settled balance and fractional carry. This allows the balance to persist across page reloads. However, the use of localStorage does not establish anonymity, nor does it prove that personal data is not processed elsewhere or that no other tracking occurs.
  • Font Declarations: The template declares a Google Fonts stylesheet. While this specific request is observable in the template, a full network capture of the entire site's traffic remains pending. The presence of this declaration does not confirm that all font loading is isolated or that no other third-party scripts are active.

Wallet Persistence and Restoration

The wallet behavior in this demo is governed by local state, not a remote account system.

  • Fractional Carry: Fractional carry persists through settlement, manual refill, and reload. This is stored locally.
  • Restoration: An idle balance below 10 may be restored to exactly 1,000. This is a manual action that sets the balance; it is not an automatic replenishment or addition of coins.
  • Unfinished Rounds: If the page is reloaded during an active round, the round ends without refund or resume. The balance reflects the state up to that point, but the unfinished round is lost.

Account and Payment Flow

This demo operates independently of external account structures.

  • Account Flow: There is no account login flow. The demo does not require or support user authentication.
  • Payment Flow: There is no payment flow. Virtual coins have no cash value and cannot be withdrawn or deposited in a traditional sense.

Identity and Scope

The identity of the entity behind the queried name is unverified, except for individually reviewed primary-source facts. The observations above are limited to the browser demo. They do not establish policies for an outside company regarding data sale, profiling, or marketing.

Third-Party Requests

The template declares a Google Fonts stylesheet. Actual full-site network capture remains pending. The absence of observed account or payment controls does not prove that no personal data are processed by third parties.

Responsible Use and Audience

The intended audience for this guide is 18+. This is a policy for the guide, not a universal legal age or an implemented age gate. Responsible use pages may describe optional pauses or limits, but the demo does not implement account-level blocking or self-exclusion tools.

Frequently asked questions

Does using localStorage mean my data is anonymous?

No. The use of localStorage for settled balance and fractional carry does not establish anonymity. It only indicates where that specific data is stored locally. Other processing or tracking may still occur.

Is my unfinished round refunded if I reload the page?

No. An unfinished round ends without refund or resume upon reload. The balance persists, but the round itself is not restored.

Does this demo collect personal data?

The demo does not have an account or payment flow, so no personal data is collected through login or payment. However, the absence of these controls does not prove that no personal data are processed elsewhere. The observed Google Fonts request is a third-party service, but full site capture is pending.
