Privacy

Draft for review before launch. This is not legal advice. Highlighted items need the operator's details.

Payments

Checkout is hosted by Stripe. Stripe collects your payment details under its own privacy policy. We do not receive your full card number, and we do not store your name or email address in the game's records.

Your billing state

Stripe collects your billing address at checkout. We keep only the state and country from it, for reporting sales by state as charity fundraising rules may require. We do not keep your street address.

Public nicknames

Plays appear under a generated nickname, such as GravyGoblin482. Your billing name is never shown.

What we record

We keep purchase records needed to run the game and account for giving: amount, team, time, status, and Stripe payment references. We count anonymous steps such as visits, team choices, and shares, along with share codes. We do not attach those counts to a person.

Rate limiting

To prevent abuse we use a one-way hash of your network address for a short time. It cannot be turned back into the address, and old entries are deleted.

The sunlight effect

The room around the globe follows the sun where you are. We use a rough location from your connection, or your device's time zone, to work that out for the current page. We do not store that location, and we never ask for your precise location.

Shake detection

If you allow motion access on your phone, it is used only to shake the globe on your screen and is never sent to us.

Cookies

One small cookie remembers that you have seen the walkthrough. Operators who sign in to the admin area use a session cookie.
