TheShovel.rocks Privacy Policy

Updated July 16, 2024

I am just a random person on the internet making games. I don't need your data!

I will never ask for personal or sensitive information.

The servers we use

For multiplayer functionality in our games (this does not include ShovelConnect) we sometimes use publicly avalabile CloudLink websocket servers. These servers collect aggregated data (same as the ones in the section bellow). We will NEVER send any kind of personal infomation to them, or our own servers!

Local data / save files

Many of the games on our website store save files with progress and settings / preferences. All of these are local unless we specify that we utilize cloud saving through ShovelConnect.

ShovelConnect

ShovelConnect is a free and open source service that we made specifically for our website and its games, used to save data on our cloud servers. We will not use this unless you make an account / log in with an account. All of the data saved does not include any kind of personal information or infomation that could be used to track you or any other users. This service exists strictly for saving your data and loading it on other devices.

All of the data can be deleted from our servers through the user settings in any of the games on our website utilizing the service.
All the data is encrypted in a way that I can't access myself. Only you can with the username and password associated with your account.

Aggregated data

We may log anonymous aggregated data such as how many people use a certain site per day or what part of the world they are from through Cloudflare.

Websites we link to

Websites we link to might have different Privacy Policies. We are not responsible for any of those.

Contact

Any concerns related to privacy or any other matter should be sent to: theshovelcontact@gmail.com

Our games

Some of our games are also released on other platforms and have their own privacy policy if they handle anything differently.
