What we store on your device
8-Ball Pool Online does not require an account. Your player name, AI difficulty and sound setting are saved in your browser’s local storage so the game remembers them next time. For online play, a random player ID is kept in session storage for the current tab only and is discarded when the tab is closed. You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser’s site data.
Online matches
When you play online, your player name, random player ID and the shots you take (cue ball position, aim, power and spin) are sent to our game server so your opponent can see them. Match state is kept only for the duration of the table and is deleted automatically after the table has been inactive. We do not sell this data or use it for profiling.

Hosting
The site and the game server run on Cloudflare, which processes standard request data such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect the service from abuse.
