InnerPlay

Privacy

InnerPlay is operated by Akash Manmohan trading as InnerPlay. This notice is effective from 15 August 2026 and describes the current free prototype. The service address is 17 Troves Close, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE4 8HB, United Kingdom.

What is kept

Settings

Volume, sound, captions, motion and the browser-provided microphone device identifier stay in memory for your visit. If you turn on “Save settings on this device”, they are stored under innerplay:prefs. Turning it off deletes them.

Transcripts

innerplay:input-mode holds voice-or-text choice, innerplay:age-ack:… holds that you acknowledged meeting a story’s age threshold, and innerplay:session-result holds the story, ending and verbatim typed transcript. They normally go when the tab closes, although browser restore may preserve them. The acknowledgement is not age verification. You can delete the transcript sooner.

Requests

Our host, Vercel, processes ordinary request data such as IP address, browser and request details to deliver, secure and diagnose the site. Ending-script requests also include story, ending and choice codes in the URL. The current production runtime-log window is up to one day.

What is not

Cookies

This site sets none.

Measurement

There is no behavioural analytics, advertising, account or marketing profile in this build. Hosting logs are not used to profile players.

Payment

Nothing is sold here, so no card or billing detail is ever asked for.

Why, how long, and your choices

Legal basis

We rely on legitimate interests to provide, secure and diagnose this free service. Saved settings are optional and controlled by you.

Retention

Saved settings remain until you turn saving off or clear browser data. Session choices and transcripts normally end with the browser page session, although browser restore may preserve them. Current runtime logs are available to us for up to one day.

Hosting

Vercel provides hosting and may process data outside the UK. Its data processing terms provide contractual transfer safeguards. Vercel also handles some service-generated data under its own privacy terms. You can read Vercel’s data processing terms and privacy notice.

Your rights

You may ask about, object to, restrict, correct or erase personal data we control. Email akash@chaitonix.com. We will acknowledge a data-protection complaint within 30 days and handle it without undue delay. You may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.

Age guidance

InnerPlay contains different stories for different audiences. Each playable story states its own recommended age and content guidance before play. The Last Session is recommended for players aged 16 and over.

The microphone

Asking

Speaking is optional. The browser asks before anything listens, and every story can be typed instead.

Listening

While a story listens, your voice is measured in the page — loud or quiet, speaking or not — to move the form on screen. It is not recorded.

Leaving

In this build, nothing you say leaves your device. No story is voiced by a live model yet, and no audio is uploaded anywhere.

When a story does answer aloud, your speech will have to travel to the model that answers it. That is not how this build works, and this page will say so plainly before it is.

Changes

InnerPlay is early and still moving. When what it does with your data changes, this page changes with it — not after.
