Privacy Policy

Overview

Pokémon Team Builder is a free, privacy-first web application. We believe your data belongs to you. This policy explains what information we collect (very little), how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

Data We Collect

Local Storage (Your Device Only)

All team data, preferences, and saved configurations are stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to any server. We cannot access, read, or recover your saved teams.

• Saved team compositions
• Theme preference (light/dark mode)
• Language preference
• Active team selection

Analytics (Anonymous)

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which pages are visited most frequently). This data is anonymous, contains no personally identifiable information, and cannot be used to track individual users.

No Account Required

We do not require registration, email addresses, or any personal information to use our service. There are no user accounts, no passwords, and no personal data stored on our servers.

Cookies

Pokémon Team Builder does not use tracking cookies. We may use essential cookies for basic site functionality (e.g., language preference), but these contain no personal information and are not shared with third parties.

Third-Party Services

We load Pokémon data from our own servers and sprite images from public CDNs. No social media tracking pixels or marketing tools are present on this site.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or share any user data with third parties. Since we don't collect personal data, there is nothing to share.

Shared Team URLs

When you use the "Share" feature, your team composition is encoded into the URL. Anyone with that URL can view your team. No data is stored on our servers — the team information exists only within the URL itself.

Children's Privacy

Our service does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Since we collect no personal data from any user, there is no specific risk to children using this tool.

Your Rights

Since all your data is stored locally in your browser, you have full control:

• Delete your data — Clear your browser's localStorage for this site at any time
• Export your data — Use the Share feature to export teams as URLs
• No account to delete — There's nothing stored on our end

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
