Privacy Policy
SWEEP OPS: CAMERA ON! (sweepshoot.com) is made and run by Developer CICA. It is an independent, fictional satire game and is not a work of any government agency, political party or campaign. Questions or data requests: [email protected].
Short version: you can play without an account or your real name. We keep only what we need to run the daily leaderboard and verify scores. We don’t sell your data and we don’t use it for advertising.
This English page is provided for convenience; if it differs from the Traditional Chinese version, the Chinese version prevails.
What we collect and why
Anonymous player ID
When you open the game we create a random player ID and keep it in a cookie (ss_sid, only sent to our game server, kept for up to 400 days) so your leaderboard entries stay yours. It is not linked to your name or any other account.
Nickname and runs
When you submit a run we store the nickname you enter and, for that run: the score, sweep and on-camera counts, a recording of your controls (which direction you pressed on each frame) and your browser engine type. The server replays the run from the recording to verify the score before it appears on the leaderboard. Nicknames are shown publicly and are checked automatically by a word list and an AI model run on Cloudflare; inappropriate nicknames may be reset or hidden.
Letters (contact form)
If you write to us through “Contact” on the home page, we store the category you picked, the subject, your message, the email address you give, plus the page you sent it from, a simplified device type (for example “mobile · iOS · Safari”; we don’t keep your full browser string), the game version and your anonymous player ID. We use these only to read and answer your message and fix problems; they are never published or used for marketing. Messages are sorted by importance automatically by an AI model run on Cloudflare so we can read them in order; this never stops a message from being sent. Messages are deleted automatically after 12 months.
Technical data
Your IP address is used only to limit abuse (for example, too many requests per hour). We store only a salted hash of it, never the raw address, and those counters are deleted within three days. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes standard request data to deliver and protect the site.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the game is played (for example: page views, run started, run submitted, shares). Advertising features and Google Signals are turned off, and we never send names or nicknames. If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, or your browser sends Global Privacy Control, Google Analytics runs without cookies. We may also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which does not use cookies.
Stored only on your device
Your settings (such as volume and display language), whether you have seen the tutorial and a copy of your nickname are kept in your browser (local storage) and stay on your device. Clearing this site’s data in your browser removes all of it.
Who processes the data
- Cloudflare — hosting, database, the automatic nickname check and message sorting, and forwarding for [email protected].
- Google — analytics; mail sent to [email protected] is forwarded to our Gmail inbox.
These providers may process data outside your country, including in the United States.
How long we keep it
Leaderboard and run data are kept while the game is running (we may delete old control recordings). Letters sent through the contact form are deleted automatically after 12 months, or earlier if you ask.
Your choices
You can ask us to see, correct or delete your data, including your nickname and scores. Write to [email protected] with your nickname and roughly when you played and we’ll reply within 30 days. If you are in the EEA or the UK you may also contact your local data protection authority.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them. Please don’t put personal information in your nickname.
Changes
If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page.
