Privacy Policy | PokéRogue Offline

Last updated: 2026-09-19

PokéRogue-Offline is an unofficial, offline-capable wrapper for the game PokéRogue, distributed for desktop (Electron) and sideloaded mobile builds (Capacitor). This document describes how the app handles data in connection with Google Sign-In / Google Drive access and Dropbox access. You choose one provider to connect at a time under Settings → Offline; everything below applies equally to whichever one you use.

What We Access

For Google Drive, the app requests the appdata scope (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive.appdata) only. For Dropbox, the app is registered with "App folder" access, Dropbox's equivalent sandboxing mechanism. Both grant access exclusively to a single, hidden, application-specific folder in the user's account. Neither grants access to:

Any other files or folders in the user's Drive or Dropbox
The user's Drive or Dropbox file listing
Any other account data (contacts, mail, calendar, etc.)

What We Use It For

The sole purpose of this access is to back up and restore the user's local game save file. When the user chooses to back up (manually, or automatically in the background every few waves once a provider is connected), the save file is uploaded to their own hidden app-only folder. When the user chooses to restore, the save file is downloaded from that same folder.

What We Do Not Do

We do not operate any backend server. There is no PokéRogue-Offline server that receives, stores, or processes user data.
We do not share, sell, or transmit any data to third parties.
We do not use the data for analytics, tracking, advertising, or profiling of any kind.
We do not read or store the contents of the user's save data outside of the user's own device and their own Google Drive appdata / Dropbox app folder.

Where Credentials Are Stored

OAuth tokens are stored locally on the user's device (using OS-level secure storage on desktop, and platform-appropriate secure storage on mobile). Tokens are never transmitted to or stored on any server operated by us.

Data Retention & Deletion

Save data placed in the provider's app-only folder remains under the user's account and is subject to that provider's own retention policies. The user can revoke this app's access at any time via their Google Account permissions page or Dropbox connected apps page (whichever provider they connected), which also removes the app's ability to read or write to that folder.

ℹ️ Revoking access does not delete the folder's existing contents automatically; the user may need to remove it separately if desired.

Changes to This Policy

Any future changes to what data is accessed or how it is used will be reflected on this page, versioned alongside the source code at github.com/PokeRogue-Offline/pokerogue-offline.
