Magnitude is an optional-account trivia game at dailymagnitude.com. This page explains the information used to run the game and save your discoveries.

Playing as a guest

You can play without creating an account. Guest progress and preferences, including sound and motion settings, are saved in your browser’s local storage. Clearing this website’s browser data removes those local saves.

Your account and discoveries

For email accounts, we store your email address, username, account creation date, and a salted password hash rather than your plain-text password. Signed-in play saves answers, scores, expedition dates, achievements and equipped rewards to the hosted database. Answer timing, timestamps and your device’s time zone are used for timing and time-zone achievements.

Unrecognized answers

When a guess is missing from the answer catalogue, its text and question are stored for the site owner to review, including during guest play. The review record does not include your account email or username. Approved answers may be added to the game’s accepted answer lists. These checks use the site’s approved reference lists; answer text is not sent to a paid AI service.

Cookies and security

Essential session cookies keep you signed in, and a security cookie helps protect account forms against forged requests. Sessions expire after 30 days. To limit repeated sign-in attempts, the service stores a hash of the connecting network address, an attempt count and a time window. A hash is not a guarantee of anonymity.

Hosting and storage

Magnitude’s hosting service uses Cloudflare infrastructure to serve the website and store online account records in a hosted database. Hosting providers process information needed to operate the service, including network requests and operational logs.

Password changes and recovery

Changing your password requires your current password and ends existing sign-ins. Password reset emails are delivered through Resend, which processes your email address and a security message containing a temporary reset link. Only a hash of that link’s secret is stored in our database. Reset links expire after 30 minutes and work once; a completed reset ends existing sign-ins. Your password is never included in an email.

Questions and account requests

Contact support@dailymagnitude.com with privacy questions or to request access, correction or deletion of your Magnitude account information. Include your account email so the request can be verified; never send your password. Signing out does not delete your online account or its saved records.
