Privacy Policy
Banana Stand Shop · last updated 8 November 2026
The short version for grown-ups: Banana Stand Shop collects nothing. There are no accounts, no ads, no chat, no tracking and no in-game purchases. Your child's progress is saved only in this browser, on this device, and never sent to us.
Who we are
Banana Stand Shop (the "Game") is made by John Schettini (John Von Claude Studio), "we" or "us". This page explains what happens to data when you or your child ("you") play the Game.
Data we collect
None. The Game has no sign-up and no servers of its own. We do not ask for a name, email, age, photo, location or any other personal information, and the Game cannot send any.
Data saved on your device
To remember progress, the Game saves a small file in your browser's local storage, on your device only:
- the stand: cash, stock, upgrades, recipes and decorations
- the clerk's look and the name your child types for the clerk
- stickers, Lane book stamps, daily gift and streak dates
- tutorial "already seen" flags, sound on or off, and volume levels
The clerk's name stays on the device and is never shown to anyone else. If you add the Game to your home screen, your browser also keeps a copy of the game files so it can run offline.
Things the Game does not do
- No accounts, logins or passwords
- No chat, messages or other players
- No ads and no in-game purchases
- No analytics, tracking, cookies or third-party tools
- No camera, microphone or location
- No selling or sharing of data, because there is no data to share
Children
The Game is made for children aged 8 to 12. Because it collects no personal information, it does not ask for parental consent to collect any. If your child wants to write to us, please help them send the email from a grown-up's account. If we learn we have received personal information from a child, we use it only to reply and then delete it.
Where the Game is hosted
The Game's website, thebananastandshop.com, is served by Cloudflare. Like any website host, Cloudflare briefly handles basic connection details (such as your IP address) to deliver the page and keep the site safe. We do not use that information, and we have not turned on any analytics.
If you play on itch.io, itch.io runs the website the Game sits on, and its own privacy policy covers that site (for example its accounts, cookies and payments). The Game itself does not need an itch.io account and sends nothing to itch.io.
Deleting your data
- In the Game: open Pause, then Reset progress. This clears the stand you're playing (there are up to three). Sound settings are kept.
- Everything: clear this site's data in your browser settings, or remove the Game from your home screen.
If you email us
If you write to us, we use your email address and message only to answer you. We never add you to a mailing list.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we update the date at the top of this page. If the Game ever starts collecting data, we will say so here before that version is released.
