Privacy Policy
This policy describes how tendie.space LLC (“we”, “us”) collects and uses information for this website and for Clover Kart.
Who we are
tendie.space LLC is an independent game studio. This website (tendie.space) is our company site. Clover Kart is our game, operated at cloverkart.io and related domains (including cloverk.art and kart.tendie.space).
Privacy questions: legal@tendie.space.
This company website
tendie.space is a static informational site. It does not require an account, does not set advertising cookies, and does not load third-party analytics or advertising scripts. The hosting provider and our CDN or DNS provider may process standard request logs (such as IP address, user agent, and the page requested) to serve the site, keep it secure, and diagnose faults.
Clover Kart
When you play Clover Kart we process information needed to run the game. There is no password login. We do not run a mailing list, and we do not keep the text of in-game chat.
How we identify you
Progress is tied to a player key, not a password. If the browser can store data, we mint a guest token there and use it on later visits. If it cannot (private mode, some embedded game frames), we fall back to a short hash of the connecting IP address. The raw IP is not the stored key, is not sent to your browser as a player identifier, and is not sent to analytics as an event parameter.
Under that IP-hash fallback, people sharing the same public address — a household, school, or café — share one profile. If a durable account is later linked, progress follows that account instead.
What we store about play
On the server we keep a play profile. It may include:
- your Tendies wallet (capped)
- garage colors
- cosmetic collection and Machine pull history
- high scores and peaks
- playtime and combat stats
- tutorial, onboarding, and goal progress
- a short recent-session history
Display names are chosen per session and are not stored on that profile.
Connection data
We use the connecting IP address at the edge for rate limiting, abuse prevention, and the hash described above. Our CDN provides a coarse country for the connection, which we may show on the kart unless you equip a flag cosmetic. Hosting, CDN, and DNS logs may include IP address, user agent, and the URL requested.
Analytics
On first-party builds, Clover Kart uses Google Analytics (property G-E0QRCBBS08) to understand aggregate traffic and feature use. Analytics is keyed with the same pseudonymous player key. Events may describe which level is loaded and whether you are on a keyboard, a controller, or a touch device. We do not send a separate page-view hit, and we do not send raw IP addresses to Google as event parameters. Google may set its own cookies. Some storefront builds omit analytics.
Google’s processing is described in Google’s privacy policy.
Chat and Discord
In-game chat is shown to other players in the arena. We do not retain message bodies. Server logs may record that a message was sent, its length, and the connection country.
On first-party and Steam, a Discord bridge may copy display names, chat, and some game events (joins, leaves, wrecks, jukebox changes) to our Discord, and Discord messages may appear in the game. Discord’s own terms and privacy policy apply to information that reaches Discord. Some storefronts disable the bridge. If you join a community channel we link to, that service’s policy applies to what you provide there.
If you email us, we keep the correspondence long enough to respond and to handle the request.
YouTube jukebox
Players may queue YouTube links. We store the video identifier and fetch the public title from YouTube. Playback uses YouTube’s own player, which is subject to YouTube’s and Google’s policies. Video identifiers may also appear in Discord event lines when the bridge is on. Some storefronts disable the jukebox.
Match replays
To reconstruct a match we keep a command journal: the hashed player key, country, display name, inputs, and the garage or cosmetic choices that affect the simulation. Raw IP addresses, login tokens, analytics identifiers, and chat text are not written into that journal. Exported replays may include a player id, name, country, and simulation state. This is match reconstruction, not a chat log.
On your device
The game stores the guest token, settings, local scores, and tutorial flags in the browser. We do not set first-party advertising cookies. Google Analytics may set cookies when analytics is on.
High scores
Public boards show display name, score, and country.
How we use information
- Operate, secure, and improve the studio website and Clover Kart
- Prevent fraud, cheating, and abuse
- Understand how the game is used, in aggregate
- Respond to questions and legal requests
- Provide optional purchases or entitlements if and when we offer them
We do not sell personal information.
Sharing
We share information with the providers that host and deliver the services: hosting; Cloudflare for DNS, CDN, and the country header described above; Google Analytics when analytics is enabled; YouTube when the jukebox is on; and Discord when the Discord bridge is on. We also share information when required by law. Hosting and Cloudflare process this information to perform their function for us. Google, YouTube, and Discord process information as described in their own policies when those features are enabled.
Retention
We keep play and account data for as long as needed to operate the game and our anti-abuse systems, then delete or de-identify it when it is no longer required, unless a longer period is required by law.
Children
Clover Kart is a general-audience online game and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have, contact legal@tendie.space and we will delete it.
Your choices
You can play as a guest. You can control cookies and analytics through your browser settings. To request access, correction, or deletion of personal information we hold, email legal@tendie.space. An IP-hash guest profile may be shared with others on the same public address, which limits what we can uniquely identify. We may need to verify the request and may retain information when we are required to (for example to combat abuse).
Changes
We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date at the bottom will change when we do. Continued use of the site or game after an update means you accept the revised policy.
