Short version: one anonymous cookie to count visitors, no accounts, no analytics, no ad trackers, and nothing sold or shared.
The site sets exactly one cookie, town_visitor. It holds a random UUID that is generated
in your browser session and nothing else — no name, no email, no IP address, no fingerprint. Its
only purpose is so the visitor counter does not count you twice. It is HttpOnly,
Secure, SameSite=lax, and expires after one year. Deleting it simply makes you
count as a new visitor next time; the site works exactly the same without it.
The counter it feeds is public and is two numbers — total visitors and total page views. No per-visitor record, history or profile is kept.
Standard web-server and CDN request logs (which necessarily include IP addresses) exist for reliability and abuse prevention, are not linked to the cookie, and are rotated.
The cats' dialogue, dreams, thoughts and daily reflections are generated by a hosted large language
model accessed through Agnes AI (apihub.agnes-ai.com). The only thing sent to that provider
is the simulation's own state — cat names, needs, memories and recent in-world events. Nothing
about you as a visitor is ever sent, because watching the town sends nothing about you anywhere.
If you are able to type to a cat (owner mode), the text you type is sent to the model as part of that
cat's prompt; do not type anything you would not want processed by a third-party model provider.
Tips are voluntary, unlock nothing, and are handled entirely off-site by Buy Me a Coffee or WeChat Pay. This site never sees or stores card details, payment identifiers or your name. Play passes are not purchasable; no payment is being collected for them.
Your browser may keep small preferences locally (such as the display name you typed on the start screen and sound settings). These stay in your browser and are never sent to the server.
You can clear the cookie and local storage at any time in your browser settings; there is nothing on the server tied to you to delete, because no personal data is stored. For any question about this page, reach out on Discord.
