Privacy policy
Troggu needs no account, shows no ads and sells no data. This page explains what the app and the website troggu.app store and send.
Troggu is run by a private individual in Switzerland. Contact: datenschutz@troggu.app
What stays on your device
This information is kept on your device only and is not transmitted:
- your settings, including the name you use at online tables
- an unfinished round against bots
- your own statistics on the rounds you have played
- the online tables you sat at most recently (table code and a random value that gets you your seat back)
You delete it by removing the app or by clearing the site’s data in your browser.
Anonymous usage statistics
To show whether and how Troggu is played, the app reports a few numbers to the server. You can turn this off in the settings under “Count anonymously” – then nothing is collected and nothing is sent.
What is reported:
- after every round: number of players, level, whether against bots or online, the contract, whether you played alone, who won and how long the round took
- after every round against bots, also the course of play: the deal and the moves, with seat numbers instead of names
- events: app opened, tutorial started or finished, table opened or joined
- on a crash: the error message and the place in the program, without any content
- each time: app version, platform (web, iOS, Android), time and a random id of the installation
The random id is created on your device, reveals nothing about you or the device, and is only used to count installations. Names and addresses are not reported.
This information is used to find errors and to improve the bots. It is kept without a fixed time limit and cannot be linked to a person.
Online tables
When you open or join a table, the server stores what the table needs to play: the name you chose, the table code, your seat, the language, the state of the game and the purse. The other players see your name.
A table is deleted 30 days after its last game.
Messages at the table (in the browser and in the Android app) are passed on to the other players and are not stored. The iOS app only has fixed calls.
For rounds at online tables the server keeps a record: the deal and the moves, with seat numbers instead of names. It is used to find errors and to improve the bots, and is kept without a fixed time limit.
Hosting at Cloudflare
The website and the server run at Cloudflare, Inc. (USA). To do so, Cloudflare processes technical connection data such as your IP address and keeps short-term operating logs (time, address requested, result). The part of the address that contains your name is redacted in these logs.
The data is held in Cloudflare data centres, as a rule in Europe. Processing in other countries, including the USA, is possible.
On troggu.app in the browser, Cloudflare Web Analytics also measures how fast the page loads and how often it is visited – without cookies and without recognising you. If “Count anonymously” is turned off, this measurement is not loaded. It does not exist in the iOS and Android apps.
What there is not
- no account, no sign-in, no email address
- no ads, no advertising ids, no tracking across apps or websites
- no sharing or selling of data to third parties
- no access to contacts, location, camera or microphone
Getting the app from the App Store or Google Play is subject to the terms of Apple and Google.
Your rights
You can ask what data is stored about you and have it corrected or deleted. Because Troggu has no accounts, the usage statistics cannot be linked to a person. For an online table, please give the table code and your name at the table.
Write to datenschutz@troggu.app.
You can also contact a data protection authority – in Switzerland the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC), in the EU the authority where you live.
Changes
If what Troggu stores or sends changes, this page is updated. The version shown here applies.
