PRIVACY NOTICE

Your collection stays yours.

DexJourney is a browser-based collection tracker. Depending on the deployment, it can run as a local-only preview or use a DexJourney email account to sync trainer profiles. It never signs in to Pokémon GO.

What is saved

In signed-in cloud mode, DexJourney stores your email address, trainer profile names, caught status, collection tags, imported optional fields, evolution progress, and account timestamps in its database. A secure session cookie keeps you signed in. Theme preference and any older, not-yet-migrated local profiles can remain in this browser’s local storage.

CSV and JSON files are parsed on your device. In cloud mode, the resulting collection records are sent to your DexJourney account when you save or import them; the original file itself is not retained as an upload.

Passwords and game accounts

DexJourney email access uses a one-time sign-in link and does not store a DexJourney password. It never asks for or stores a Pokémon GO, Google, Facebook, Apple, Pokémon Trainer Club, Niantic, or Scopely password. Do not enter game credentials into a collection file.

Service providers and security records

The cloud deployment uses Hostinger for website and database hosting and the configured email provider to deliver sign-in links. These providers process the information needed to operate those services under their own terms. DexJourney also keeps limited request, session, and rate-limit records, such as hashed network identifiers, to prevent abuse and secure accounts. One-time link and session secrets are stored as hashes rather than in reusable plain text.

Third-party requests

The dashboard loads fonts from Google Fonts and character sprites from the PokéAPI sprite repository hosted by GitHub. Those providers may receive ordinary technical request information such as an IP address, browser details, and the requested asset URL under their own privacy practices.

Analytics and advertising

DexJourney currently uses no analytics, advertising pixels, or tracking cookies.

Retention, backup, and deletion

Cloud account and collection data remains until you delete a trainer or your account. Expired sign-in and session records are periodically removed. Local data remains until it is migrated, reset, or cleared through your browser. Account deletion is available from Manage account & data and removes the account’s email, profiles, collection data, and active sessions. Export a CSV backup before deleting anything you may need later.

DexJourney account access is separate from Pokémon GO. A checklist entry reflects what you record or import; it is not verified against a game account.
