The short version: we store almost nothing about you. The long version is below, as required by law and common decency.
BangMiles (bangmiles.com) is a novelty mileage calculator operated as a personal side project, hosted by Teklan Hosting. For questions or data removal requests, contact: hello@bangmiles.com.
BangMiles stores the following data exclusively in your browser's localStorage. It never leaves your device, is never transmitted to our servers, and is not accessible to us:
The only data stored on our servers is what you explicitly submit to the leaderboard:
We do not store your IP address alongside leaderboard entries. We do not link leaderboard entries to any personal identifier.
Like all web servers, ours logs standard request data including IP addresses. These logs are retained for up to 30 days for security and abuse prevention purposes and are not used for analytics or advertising targeting.
BangMiles does not set any first-party cookies. We use localStorage exclusively for local persistence. Third-party advertising (Google AdSense) may set its own cookies. See Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy for details on AdSense data practices.
BangMiles displays advertisements via Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your browsing history. You can opt out of personalised advertising at google.com/settings/ads or via the Your Online Choices platform.

Local data: Clear your browser's localStorage for bangmiles.com to remove all locally stored data. This can usually be done via your browser's Developer Tools (Application → Local Storage) or by clearing your browser's site data.
Leaderboard entries: Email hello@bangmiles.com with your display name and approximate submission date. We will remove your entry within 48 hours. No questions asked.
BangMiles is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has submitted data to our leaderboard, please contact us for immediate removal.
Under UK GDPR and the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, or erase personal data we hold about you. Given that the only personal data we hold server-side is a display name and a number, the practical exercise of these rights is straightforward: email us and we'll delete it. For broader enquiries, the relevant supervisory authority in the UK is the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
We may update this policy if our data practices change. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of BangMiles after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
