Privacy policy

Last updated 25 October 2026

GutiVerse is a game app of traditional Bangladeshi board games, made by plycoder (“we”). This policy explains what the GutiVerse Android app and this website collect, why, and your choices. Contact: tulx.app@gmail.com.

The short version

• No accounts are required. You choose a display name and an emoji avatar; they stay on your phone and are shown to people you play with in rooms.
• There are no ads, no analytics SDKs and no selling or sharing of personal data for advertising.
• Room chat and moves pass through our game server to reach the other players. Chat is kept in memory only while the room is open; reported messages are kept up to 90 days for moderation.
• Google Play Games sign-in, if you choose it, is managed by Google.

Data on your device

Your display name, avatar, chosen cheerleader, settings (sound, music, vibration, animation speed), game statistics (games played and won) and coin count are stored only on your device. A random installation identifier is created on first launch so that, if your connection drops, you can rejoin a room and take back your seat. It is not linked to your name, phone number or advertising ID.

Playing on one phone or a Wi‑Fi room

Games against bots and pass-and-play games never leave your device. In a Wi‑Fi room, phones on the same local network talk directly to the host phone; the room code is derived from the host's local network address. No data is sent to our servers.

Online rooms and chat

When you create or join an online room, your device connects to the GutiVerse game server. The server receives and relays to the other players in the room: your display name and avatar, your cheerleader choice, the moves you make, emote reactions and chat messages, and your random installation identifier (to restore your seat after a disconnection).

• Chat messages pass through an automatic word filter. They are held in server memory only for the life of the room and are deleted when the room closes. They are not written to a database.
• Reports. If you report a message, the reported message, the names involved, the room code and the time are stored for up to 90 days so we can review abuse and enforce our terms, then deleted. A short local copy of your own reports is also kept on your device.
• Server logs. Like any internet service, our server records technical logs (IP address, time, connection events and errors) to keep the service secure and working. Logs are kept for up to 30 days.
• Match results are not stored on the server in this version.

Google Play Games (optional)

If you choose to sign in with Google Play Games for leaderboards and achievements, Google processes your Play Games profile, player ID and the scores and achievements we submit, under Google's privacy policy. You can play every game without signing in.

Google Play and Android

Google Play may collect information about installs, crashes and purchases under its own policies. We receive only aggregated statistics from the Play Console.

Children

GutiVerse is for a general audience aged 13 and over, because online rooms include chat with other players. It is not directed at children under 13. Offline play (bots, pass-and-play) has no chat. If you believe a child under 13 has used online chat, contact us and we will remove any related reports.

Security

Online connections to our server are encrypted (TLS). Wi‑Fi room traffic stays on your local network. Access to server logs and reports is limited to the GutiVerse team.

Your choices and rights

• Change your name or avatar at any time in your profile.
• Mute or report any player from the chat.
• Delete your data: see Delete your data.
• You can ask what data we hold about your installation identifier, or ask us to delete it, by email.

This website

This website uses no cookies, analytics, trackers, forms or external scripts or fonts. Our web server keeps standard access logs (IP address, time, page) for up to 30 days to run and secure the site.

Changes

We will update this page when the app changes, and change the date above. Significant changes will be announced in the app.
