Slow Grove privacy

Last updated 30 October 2026

Everything stays on your device

Slow Grove runs entirely in your browser or headset. Your maple, its journal, your field notes and where the display sits on your desk are saved in this browser's local storage, on your device. The game has no accounts, no server of its own, no analytics and no advertising, and it sets no cookies. Clearing the site's data in your browser removes everything.

Sharing a maple

When you use Share, the whole maple is written into the link itself. Anyone you give the link to can see that maple and keep a copy of it. Nothing about the link is stored by us.

Mixed reality

In a headset the game asks for hand tracking, the room's surfaces (planes and meshes), anchors, and eye tracking on devices that offer it, so the maple can sit on your desk and be shaped with your hands. The game uses this only while you play; it is not recorded or sent anywhere.

Hosting

The site is served by Netlify, which, like any web host, may keep standard request logs (such as your IP address and browser type) to run the service; see Netlify's privacy policy. While the site is on Netlify's free plan, Netlify may add its own small badge to the page.
