- Nothing is loaded from other websites, except the visit counter described below.
Counting visits
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see how many people visit and which pages are used, so we know what to make next. It does not use cookies, does not identify anyone and does not follow you to other websites. It counts things like the page visited, the country, the type of device and browser, and how quickly the page loaded. Inside Rimjhim Town nothing about what you do while playing is counted.
What is kept on your device
In Rimjhim Town, your choice of character, picture quality, the “less motion” setting, whether sound is on and how loud, the camera view, the colours you chose for each character, the play-together name you picked from our list, and which golden stars you have found are saved in this browser so they are there next time. They never leave the device. Use “Forget my choices on this device” in the town's pause menu to remove them.
Playing together
In Rimjhim Town, children can choose to play in the same town as others. There is no chat: players can only wave, cheer, clap and pick from a few friendly phrases such as “Hello!” and “Let’s play!”. In the open town everyone’s name comes from our list of friendly names, like “Happy Duck”. Anyone can hide another player just for themselves by tapping their name.
While you play together, the town sends your chosen name, character and colours, and where your character is and what it is doing, to the other players in the same room, through a Cloudflare server. We keep no record of who played or when, and the open town keeps nothing once a player leaves.
A grown-up can make a private room after answering a simple question. It gets a code of four words and a number, like RAIN-KITE-MOON-SHIP-42, to share with the grown-ups of invited friends. Only the grown-up who made the room can type a nickname (checked against a list of unkind words, shown only in that room and never stored), lock the room so nobody new can join, or send someone away.
To stop strangers guessing codes or crowding rooms, the server counts how often each internet address tries to join, for a minute at a time, without keeping the address. While a private room is open it remembers only that it exists, a scrambled copy of its grown-up’s key, whether it is locked, and a scrambled, salted stand-in for anyone sent away, so they cannot come straight back. None of this can be turned back into an address or a name, and all of it is deleted a couple of minutes after the last player leaves.
Buying from the shop
The shop is for grown-ups, and a grown-up is asked a quick question before checkout opens. Payment happens on Stripe’s own checkout page: your card details, name and email address go to Stripe, which keeps the order and sends your receipt under its own privacy policy. This website stores nothing about what you buy. For a printable pack, the download link carries Stripe’s order number so the files can be released to you.
Watching on YouTube
The “Watch on YouTube” buttons first ask a grown-up a simple question. Only after that, and only if the grown-up chooses to go, does a new tab open on YouTube. YouTube is run by Google and has its own privacy rules; information may be collected there. Nothing from YouTube is loaded on this site.
Hosting
The site is delivered by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare necessarily handles the technical details of each request, such as the IP address, in order to send the pages back. Apart from the visit counter above, this site does not add its own request logging on top of that.
