Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 16, 2026
PkDaTa (the “Site”), available at pkdata.gg, is a free set of tools for competitive Pokémon VGC players. This policy explains the limited data involved when you use the Site. In short: the Site has no accounts, no sign-ups, and no forms, and it does not ask you for personal information. The only data of note comes from the advertising network that helps keep the Site free.
Information We Collect
We do not collect, request, or store personal information about you. There are no user accounts, logins, contact forms, or newsletter sign-ups, and we do not run any analytics or visitor-tracking software of our own. The Pokémon usage and win-rate statistics shown on the Site are aggregate tournament and Showdown data about Pokémon — not about you.
Preferences Stored in Your Browser
To make the Site usable, we save a few preferences — such as your light/dark theme, scan-animation setting, and saved favorites — in your browser’s local and session storage. This information stays on your device, is never transmitted to us, and is not used to identify you. You can clear it at any time through your browser’s settings.
Advertising and Cookies
The Site displays ads served by Google AdSense. To do this, Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies. Specifically:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this Site and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
For more detail on how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Server Logs
Like virtually every website, the service that hosts the Site may automatically record standard technical request information — such as your IP address, browser type, and the time of your request — in server logs. This is used only to operate and secure the Site and is not combined with any other information to identify you.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Site, please contact us and we will address it.
Links to Other Sites
The Site may link to external sites (for example, data sources or support links) that we do not operate. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites, and we encourage you to review their own privacy policies.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Effective date” above and post the updated version on this page.
