tick3d is a game by Yarden Zamir. This policy covers the website and the Android app. The app shows the same website.
tick3d has no ads, no trackers and no analytics services. It does not sell your data or give it to others.
What the server stores
- Player token. A random id that the game makes on your first visit. It holds no name, email or device id. Your browser keeps it and sends it with online calls.
- Custom name. The name that you choose, if you choose one.
- Online sessions. The moves, the seats, the session name and the chat. A session keeps its last 50 chat messages.
- Game results and stats. Every finished game, also games against the computer, with a friend and Nearby. A game also stores counts about how it was played: the device kind (phone, tablet or computer), the theme, the view, and how many moves came from the board or the keypad.
- Voice room runs. The mode, the times and the score of a finished practice run. No audio.
- GitHub login, only if you log in: your GitHub id, login name and picture address. A login cookie keeps you logged in for 90 days.
- Reports. When you report a message or a player: the reason, your note, the session code, a copy of the message and the name at that time, and your person id.
- Blocks. The people that you block, with their names, for your player or your GitHub account.
- Moderation log. Each time a maintainer hides a message or clears a name: the maintainer's login, the action and its target.
- Error reports. The error message, the file and line, and the app version, without your token.
Nearby uses your network address to find devices on the same Wi-Fi. The server keeps it in memory only while your Nearby game is open, and never writes it to disk.
What stays on your device
- Microphone audio. Voice play reads the microphone on your device only. The audio and the voice clips for a replay stay in memory on the device. The game never uploads or saves them.
- Your settings, your voice calibration, and the games of this device, in the storage of your browser.
Who sees what
- Anyone with the code or link of an online session sees its players, moves and chat.
- Anyone with the link to a finished game sees its moves and the player names.
- The Stats page shows totals of all games, without names.
- Other players see your person id: a short hash of your token, never the token itself.
- The maintainers of tick3d read reports. They can hide a reported message or clear a reported name.
- Your GitHub picture loads from GitHub.
All data goes over HTTPS.
How long it stays
- An online session without a move: deleted after 9 hours.
- Everything else: until you ask to delete it.
