Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Tiny Trip ("the game") handles personal data. Effective 2026-11-02
- No accounts, no names or contact details. Your nickname, character and progress are stored only in your browser (section 3).
- With the live feature, your nickname, character appearance, position in the scene and emoji are shown in real time to other players in the same place. They are not stored (sections 1–2).
- For the public "everyone's travel stats" and to fix bugs, a random device ID is sent with a trip summary (countries, cities, nights, landmarks visited, passport country), feature-use counts and error messages. No names or contact details (sections 1–2).
- No cookies, ads or third-party analytics. We will announce any change 7 days in advance (section 4).
- Share buttons (e.g. Threads) just open those sites. The game is currently a free beta.
- We do not sell or share personal information.
1. Data we process
- Live feature: nickname, character appearance values, position, emoji reactions, the place you are in; your IP address passes through our server provider (Cloudflare) to deliver it.
- Contact: what you write in the contact form (Google Forms) and, optionally, your email.
- Access logs: Cloudflare processes IP address, browser/device info, requested URL and time for delivery and security.
- Travel stats: a random 8-character device ID, passport country, countries/cities/nights/landmarks of finished trips, first-visit and visit dates; each device ID gets a sequential "traveler number".
- Operational metrics: with the same device ID and a random per-visit value, names of key in-game events (app open, trip start/finish, postcard saved…) and the start of error messages, stored only as daily counts.
- Abuse prevention: IP addresses are counted in server memory for one minute to limit request floods, and are not stored.
Your nickname is visible to others — don't use your real name or contact details.
2. Purpose, retention and legal basis
Live data is used only to show you to others in the same place and exists in server memory only while you are connected. Contact data is deleted after we reply, and automatically after 90 days at the latest. Travel stats are kept as totals plus the device ID; daily visit markers are deleted after 2 days, and device IDs/traveler numbers are kept until the service ends. Legal basis (EU/UK GDPR): legitimate interests in running the game, and your request when you contact us.
3. Stored on your device
Profile (nickname, character, passport country — used only to decide which places are locked and where "home" is on the map), passport stamps, collection, the trip in progress, settings, and trip album (up to 30 small postcards), food/animal books, weekly goals and badges, and a local usage log with a random device ID (only the operational metrics in section 1 are sent). Clearing site data deletes them permanently and creates a new device ID.
4. Cookies, ads and analytics
No cookies, ads or third-party analytics (e.g. Google Analytics). The travel stats in section 1 are counted on our own game server (Cloudflare). If we add ads or third-party analytics, we will update this policy at least 7 days before.
5. Service providers and international transfers
Cloudflare, Inc. (hosting, delivery, security, live and stats server — USA and other data center locations) and Google LLC (web fonts, contact form — USA). We do not sell or "share" personal information as defined by US state privacy laws.
6. Children
The game is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their personal data. Children should choose a nickname with a parent.
7. Your rights
You can delete on-device data by clearing site data. You may request access, correction or deletion of contact data, and in the EU/UK you may complain to your data protection authority.

9. Changes
We post changes at least 7 days before they take effect (30 days for important changes) and keep previous versions available.
