FFTCGdle
Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 2, 2026
In short: FFTCGdle stores your Discord user ID together with your guesses and results, so it can show your board, stats and streak. When you launch it in a channel, it posts an "is playing" message there with your name, avatar and board. It doesn't store your name, email, messages or anything else about you, and it doesn't sell or share your information. You can delete your data yourself at any time.
Who runs FFTCGdle
FFTCGdle is a free, unofficial fan-made game for the Final Fantasy Trading Card Game, played as an Activity inside Discord. It is run by an individual developer (Japnix), not a company. See Contact for how to get in touch.
What FFTCGdle stores
| Information | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Your Discord user ID (a number that identifies your account) | To keep your game separate from everyone else's and follow you across devices | Until you delete it |
| The cards you guessed, the date of each puzzle, and when you made each guess, kept separately for Classic and Art | To show your board when you come back to a puzzle | Until you delete it |
| Which puzzles you solved or gave up on, and after how many guesses, in each mode | To work out each mode's stats and streaks, and the number of players who solved each puzzle | Until you delete it |
| A random sign-in code linked to your user ID | To keep you signed in while you play | Deleted automatically after 30 days |
| When you play FFTCGdle in a channel: that channel's ID, the ID of the channel's "is playing" message, your Discord avatar's ID, and which puzzle date you're on | To keep the "is playing" message up to date with your board while you play | Deleted automatically after 4 hours |
| If you sign in to the server check page: the list of servers you're in, with your permissions in them | To show how FFTCGdle is set up in the servers you manage | Not stored |
| If a server's admins choose a channel for FFTCGdle's messages: the server's ID, the channel's ID, and the webhook that posts there | To post "is playing" messages in that channel | Until the server's admins change or remove it |
What other players see
When you play FFTCGdle in a channel, whether you launch it or join someone else's, FFTCGdle shows you in an "is playing" message there with your Discord name and avatar, the puzzle number, and a picture of your board's colored clue tiles. Everyone playing in that channel at the same time shares one message. It updates as you guess, and says how many guesses you took when you solve it or give up. Anyone who can read that channel can see it, the same as any other message there. The picture shows only the colors and arrows, not which cards you guessed or the answer. Your Art guesses show as a strip of grey and green squares under your board, again without the cards or the answer. Giving up shows as a red outline around your board, or a red square at the end of your Art strip.
Apart from that, other players don't see your guesses, stats or user ID. The game also shows a count of how many players have solved each day's puzzle, which doesn't identify anyone.
What FFTCGdle doesn't store
- Your username, display name or email address. Your avatar picture is fetched from Discord only to draw your "is playing" picture, and is not saved.
- Your messages, servers, friends or anything else from your Discord account.
- The access token Discord gives FFTCGdle when you sign in. It is used to look up your user ID (again if you choose Play again after deleting your data) and is never saved on FFTCGdle's server.
Signing in with Discord
When you open FFTCGdle, Discord asks you to allow it to see your basic account information (the
identify permission). FFTCGdle only reads your user ID from it. Discord's own
Privacy Policy covers how Discord handles
your information, including while you play Activities.
Server logs
Like most websites, the web server in front of FFTCGdle keeps standard access logs: the IP address a request came from, the time, and the page or file requested. These logs are used only to keep the service running and secure, are not combined with your game data, and are not shared.
Other services
- Discord runs the Activity window and handles sign-in.
- Card data and images come from FFTCGdle's own card service and Google Cloud Storage. FFTCGdle's server fetches them itself, so no information about you is sent to these services.
FFTCGdle has no advertising, analytics or tracking, and never sells, rents or shares your information.
Deleting your data
You can delete all of your FFTCGdle data at any time:
- In the game: open FFTCGdle in Discord, choose Delete my data at the bottom of the page, and confirm. Your guesses, results and stats in both modes, and your sign-in sessions, are removed straight away.
- By asking: if you can't open the game, contact us as described below with your Discord user ID (in Discord, turn on Developer Mode under Settings → Advanced, then right-click your name and choose Copy User ID), and your data will be removed.
Deleting your data resets your stats and streaks. If you play again afterwards, you'll start fresh. Copies of the database kept as backups are replaced over time, so deleted data may remain in a backup for a short while before it's gone.
Children
FFTCGdle is played through Discord, which requires users to be at least 13 years old (or older where local law requires). FFTCGdle is not intended for anyone under that age.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. If a change affects what is stored about you, it will be announced on the support server.
