Privacy

The Cave Survey Training Simulator is a training tool. It does not sell, broker, or share user data. The summary below describes what data the application handles today and what is planned for future releases.

Today

• No data leaves your browser. Cave generation, survey state, and sketches are all computed and stored locally.
• Sketches are stored in browser localStorage. They persist across reloads on the same device but are never uploaded. Clearing site data removes them.
• No analytics or tracking. The app does not load third-party analytics, ad pixels, or session-replay tooling.
• No accounts today. The simulator runs without sign-in. The Supabase environment variables in `.env.local` control optional auth that is not active in the public build.

Future — CaveID auth

A future release will add account-based features (saved scenarios, instructor dashboards, grotto rosters). When that ships, account information will be managed by id.cavefinder.app (CaveID) — a separate sign-on service that issues identity tokens this app verifies. Account email, display name, and grotto membership will be stored by CaveID, not by the simulator. Survey data stored server-side will be linked to your CaveID account identifier only.
