Paper PitPrivacy policy
Paper Pit is a game made by SayCO LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company ("we"). This policy explains what happens to information when you play Paper Pit on Android or Windows, and when you visit this website.
The short version
- We don't collect, receive, sell or share any personal information from the game.
- There are no accounts, ads, analytics, tracking or crash reporting in Paper Pit.
- Everything the game saves stays on your device.
What the game stores on your device
- Profiles: the profile names you type, lesson progress, your paper-money account, your trades and any journal notes you write.
- Settings: choices such as which chart tools are shown, and that you have read the "it's a game" notice.
- Live price recordings: if you play with live prices, the game saves one-minute price candles so the day can be replayed later.
- An API key, if you enter one: kept in the game's local settings on your device.
None of this is sent to us. On Android it is removed when you uninstall the game. On Windows it is in
your user profile's AppData\LocalLow\SayCO LLC\Paper Pit folder and in the game's local
settings, and you can delete it at any time.
Live prices from Finnhub (optional)
Paper Pit works without an internet connection, apart from its optional live-price features. If you choose to enter a free API key from Finnhub.io to see live prices, the game asks Finnhub for prices directly from your device. Those requests include your API key and the ticker symbols you choose, and Finnhub can see your device's IP address, as with any internet request. Your Finnhub account and those requests are covered by Finnhub's privacy policy and terms. The key only reads prices; it does not connect to a broker or enable real trading.
App stores
If you get Paper Pit from Google Play or Steam, Google or Valve handle your purchase, download and store account under their own privacy policies. We may see the usual summary reports these stores give developers (for example, numbers of installs), which do not identify you to us.
This website
paperpit.app and saycogames.com are hosted on GitHub Pages. We don't use cookies, analytics or tracking on them. GitHub, as the host, may log visitors' IP addresses for security and to keep the service running; see GitHub's privacy statement.
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you write, and use them only to reply to you. We don't add you to any mailing list.
Children
Paper Pit is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll post the new version here with a new effective date. If a future version of the game ever collects information, this policy will say so before that version is released.
