Privacy Policy

Who is responsible

[OWNER NAME — set it in Admin → Settings] runs TRAP TAP and is responsible for your data. Contact: [CONTACT EMAIL — set it in Admin → Settings].

What we collect and why

• Your account — display name, email address and your password (stored only as a salted hash, never in plain text). To log you in and show your library.
• Purchases — order number, email used, amount, currency, date, payment status and any creator code used. To give you the game and pay creators. Your card or bank details go to the payment provider, not to us.
• Game progress and stats — deaths, levels completed, best stage, Hardcore and Speedrun bests, online rounds and wins, leaderboard times with your display name. To show your stats and leaderboards.
• Online play — your display name, position and state while you are in a room. Room data is kept only in the server's memory and disappears when the room ends.
• Player maps — maps you publish, with your display name as author; tries, deaths and times on maps, and your name if you get a first clear or best time; which account reported which map. To run MAP MAKER, the UNBEATEN badge and moderation.
• Streamer challenges — which map you sent to which streamer, and its result. Shown in the streamer's queue and on their public page.
• Creator program — name, email, channel URL, your application note, payout method, and your clicks, sales, commissions and payouts. For referral clicks we store a random visitor ID and hashed (not readable) versions of the IP address and browser name, only to count unique visitors and stop fake clicks.
• Security logs — a log of important actions (for example account sign-ups, purchases, settings changes, published or hidden maps), and short-lived rate limits that use your IP address in memory to stop abuse.

We use this data to provide the game and the services above, to keep them secure, and to meet legal and tax obligations. We don't sell your data and we don't use advertising trackers.

Cookies and local storage

• tt_session — keeps you logged in. Needed for the site to work.
• tt_ref — remembers which creator sent you, for 30 days, so they get credit if you buy.
• tt_vid — a random ID set when you follow a creator link, kept for up to a year, used only to count unique referral visits.

The game also saves your progress, settings and MAP MAKER drafts in your browser's local storage on your own device.

Who we share it with

Only with services that run the platform for us — our hosting and database providers and our payment provider — and only as needed to run it; and with authorities when the law requires. Creators see sales numbers and commission for their code, not who bought. Your display name and map results are visible to other players, and to streamers' audiences if you send them a map.

How long we keep it

Account, purchase and game data: while your account exists. Purchase and commission records may be kept longer where tax or accounting law requires. Reports on maps: until the map is restored or deleted. Referral clicks: as long as needed to calculate and audit commissions.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you the data we hold about you, correct it, delete your account and data, or send you a copy — write to [CONTACT EMAIL — set it in Admin → Settings] from your account email. Depending on where you live (for example the EU/UK under the GDPR) you may also object to or restrict some uses and complain to your data-protection authority.

Children

TRAP TAP is not aimed at children under 13 and we don't knowingly let them create accounts. If you think a child has, contact us and we'll delete the account.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes, and we'll announce important changes on this site or in the game.
