Multifaceted. The Tearing
Privacy Policy
Updated 4 October 2026
We use as little information as we can to run the game. Guest and device identifiers can still relate to you, even when we do not know your real name.
This policy adopts the Anespiem Shared Privacy Policy. Read both together: the shared part explains our common approach and your rights; this page explains this game's information and current hosting. Shared edition: 14 September 2026 edition, updated 21 September 2026.

Access and game state
We keep a random account identifier, linked-device records, device labels and access-verification information to recognise your devices. Your device stores its own access credential. No real name, email address or phone number is needed to play. We also keep the app version, platform and distribution channel reported by your device to check compatibility; these are cleared when you delete your account. Room membership, your chosen table name, cards, board and actions let the game resume and stay consistent for everyone in the room. Other players receive the public room information and their own private cards, not your device credential or hidden hand.
Connecting a device
A short linking code lasts five minutes. The device that already has access must confirm the matching request before the new device receives access. The server does not expire device access for inactivity. A browser's access cookie lasts up to 400 days and is refreshed when used; the browser may remove it sooner. Connect another device before losing your only means of access, and disconnect a device when you no longer trust it.
Optional product statistics
Website and game statistics are enabled by default. Website collection starts when a page opens unless this browser has a saved opt-out. Game collection starts when you create or join a room unless your account has opted out. Website statistics use random browser and tab identifiers to count page views, active reading, section visits and requests to open the game. Game statistics record room and match events, outcomes and selected actions under separate pseudonyms. We use these statistics to improve the website and game. These are pseudonymous records, not a promise of anonymity. Names, access credentials, room codes, free text, full addresses of visited pages, searches and URL fragments are not included in product statistics.
Who processes information
Anespiem operates the website, game and game-statistics service. For this game's current hosting, the website and game use infrastructure operated by Anespiem; the shared policy's Hetzner game-hosting description applies only after a move there. The website's separate statistics service is also operated by Anespiem and hosted by Hetzner, as is the game's statistics service. Cloudflare carries and protects connections to the website and game; this involves network data such as your IP address even when it is not stored in product statistics. These providers may process network and security information in countries outside your own. We remain responsible for the information we send and the safeguards required by applicable law.
Keeping older apps working
We count requests and errors by day and supported operation version to decide when older app connections can safely be retired. These totals have no account, device, room or network identifier and are not affected by the product-statistics switch. Request totals are kept for 90 days; service-availability summaries have no automatic expiry.
How long information stays
Account records do not expire for inactivity. Disconnecting a device stops its access, but its record, account link, label and platform remain until you delete the account. After account deletion, the original label, platform and account link are removed. The limited record keeps the device identifier and a value that lets us recognise and reject its old access secret; it has no automatic expiry. Rooms expire after seven days without activity; product statistics are kept for up to 90 days. Temporary linking records are normally deleted within 24 hours. An outage can delay deletion until service recovery; overdue records are checked again at startup. If you email us, we receive your address and message to answer; we keep that correspondence while needed to handle the request and any related dispute.
Removing your account
Open Devices and account in the game and choose Delete account. This revokes your devices' access and removes the account and its identifying links; the limited revoked-access record described above remains. This applies to the active service, not backup copies, which may still contain earlier records. In active matches, a surrender is recorded for you. Other players can finish their match: public character, seat and game facts remain until the room expires, but your name and account links are removed. Deletion clears only the game-statistics delivery queue for your rooms. Previously recorded game statistics and statistics already accepted by the statistics service keep their existing retention period of up to 90 days. The retained game records are not used to resend the cleared events. Account deletion cannot be undone. Browser language and privacy choices can also be removed by clearing site data. Never email us an access credential or linking code.
Your choices and rights
To turn off optional statistics, use Privacy settings in the website footer, or Devices and account → Help improve the game in the game. Turning a control off stops new statistics for that part of the service and clears only its delivery queue. Previously recorded game statistics and statistics already accepted by the statistics service keep their existing retention period of up to 90 days. The retained game records are not used to resend the cleared events. The website's choice is stored in that browser; clearing site data removes it, so collection starts again on your next visit. The game's choice stays with your account; a new account starts with statistics on. Depending on the law that applies, you can request access, correction, deletion, a portable copy, restriction or object to processing, and complain to your local data protection authority or Singapore's Personal Data Protection Commission. Contact [email protected]. We may need a safe way to verify that a request concerns your account. We do not require an email address to use in-game account deletion.
Policy changes
We will explain material changes before new processing begins where notice is required. This page shows the current policy date. A new shared edition does not silently change this game's policy.
