There Will Be Dragons (and Dogs!) · Last updated October 15, 2026
There Will Be Dragons (and Dogs!) is a free garden game made by Gamemaker Nic for family and friends. This page says what the game knows about you, why, and what you can do about it. The short version: it keeps only what it needs to save your garden, and it never sells, shares or tracks anything.
Who runs the game
Gamemaker Nic, who made the game. You can reach me at hello@therewillbedragonsanddogs.com.
What the game keeps
- Your garden. Your pets, eggs and decorations, the names you give them, how your keeper looks, a random garden number, and when you played. It's saved to your account, with a copy in your browser.
- Your account: you sign in to play, so the game keeps your email address, and when you sign in with Google, the name and email Google shares for your account. That's how your garden follows you to other devices.
- In your browser: the game saves your garden, a few settings and a short list of recent errors, and an account keeps you signed in. Nothing is used for ads or tracking.
- Server logs: like every website, Google's servers that host the game see your device's internet address and browser when they send you the game.
Why
Only to let you sign in and to save your garden. There is no advertising, no analytics and no tracking of any kind, and the game doesn't use cookies for anything but keeping you signed in.
Who else sees it
Google, which hosts the game and runs its accounts and saves (Firebase). Nobody else. Your information is never sold or shared, and other players can't see your garden or your email.
How long it's kept
Your account and your saved garden are kept until you delete them. Google keeps its server logs for a limited time under its own policies.
Your choices
- Delete your account: Menu → Settings → Account → Delete my account. That deletes your sign-in and your garden right away, in your account and in that browser. Download a backup first if you want to keep a copy.
- Take your garden with you: Menu → Settings → Saving → Download a backup or Copy save code.
- Ask a question or ask for anything to be removed: email hello@therewillbedragonsanddogs.com.
Kids
The game is for players 13 and up, and it asks for a birth month and year before anyone makes an account. It never keeps the birth date, only whether the player is old enough. If a parent finds that a child under 13 made an account, email me and I'll delete it.
Do Not Track
The game doesn't track you, so a browser's Do Not Track setting changes nothing.
Changes
If this page changes, the new version goes here with a new date at the top, and big changes get a note in the game.
