Barbog's Goblin Gauntlet

Privacy

You can play as a guest or choose to sign in with Google. This notice explains the information the game uses to run matches, remember your account, outfit and race record, and improve the courses.

Last updated: September 15, 2026

Your account

If you sign in, we store Google's stable account identifier, a separate game account ID, your current goblin name, and account creation and update timestamps. This lets you return to the same game account and keep your saved name. We also store comparison forms of your current and previous names with your account so other accounts cannot reuse them. These records are deleted with your account.

We do not store your Google email address, Google profile photo, Google real name or Google password. Your account starts with an assigned name; signing in with Google lets you choose a unique name. Google handles sign-in under its Privacy Policy; the game loads Google's sign-in service when you choose that option.

A secure browser cookie keeps you signed in for up to 7 days. The server stores hashes of session credentials, along with their expiry information. Signing out revokes this browser's login and pending game tickets. In Profile, Sign out all devices revokes every login and pending game ticket for your account, including this browser. The game server is notified to disconnect active account games. Your saved account remains; signing out does not delete it.

Your race record

Signed-in players have a profile showing races entered and finished, race wins, podium finishes, tournaments played and won, points, knockdowns and checkpoint returns. These totals come from the multiplayer game server and are linked to your game account ID.

Profile tracking begins with this update. Earlier races, guest games, solo practice and custom tournaments are not added to your account record. Your profile shows when its recorded results began. We keep the totals with your account and individual result records to prevent duplicate counting; individual records become eligible for cleanup after 31 days.

Community tournaments

The invite-only Workshop stores private course drafts, titles, descriptions and course thumbnails with your game account. Your profile displays your account UUID, which you can share with the game administrator to request Workshop access. We store whether access has been granted. Revoking access blocks editing and publishing but preserves your creations. A recovery copy of your draft may also be kept in this browser. Only you can edit your tournaments while you have access. Publishing makes a snapshot of the tournament, its thumbnail and your chosen goblin name available to other players.

Your saved tournament library is private. Reports contain your game account ID, the reported tournament and a reason; the game administrator can review these reports. Unpublishing removes a tournament from discovery and new races. Previously published snapshots remain available for races already underway. Deleting an unpublished tournament removes its stored versions and thumbnails.

After participating in a community tournament while signed in, you can upvote or downvote it. We store the qualifying tournament participation and your current vote with your game account to prevent duplicate voting. You can change or remove your vote. Tournament vote totals are public, and your profile shows the upvotes received across your creations; individual voters are not listed publicly. Deleting your account removes your votes and participation records, and deleting a tournament removes its ratings.

Guest names and multiplayer

Guest names are assigned automatically, cannot be edited, and are remembered in your browser's local storage. The game also uses browser session storage to reconnect you to a match. Guest names do not create a persistent account.

Other players can see your goblin name in lobbies, above your character and in race results, and your equipped outfit during multiplayer. Multiplayer servers process the movement and match information needed to run the game. Clearing the game's site data in your browser removes its locally stored guest name and outfit, login cookie and device preferences. Invite links contain a lobby identifier and never contain your account or reconnect credentials.

Your suggestions

If you send a suggestion, we store its title and details with your game account ID, submission and update times, and its review category. The game administrator can read your suggestion and chosen goblin name in the private admin dashboard and categorize it for review. Suggestions are not published to other players. They remain in the game database until your account is deleted.

Gameplay analytics

We collect first-party gameplay analytics to understand traffic, find difficult or abandoned courses and improve the game. These include visits, device category, the hostname of the referring site, tournament and course starts and completions, time spent, falls, knockdowns, respawns and connection events.

A random browser identifier is stored locally with a 90-day expiry. Analytics records use a 180-day retention window. The analytics fields do not include your account ID, Google identity, player name, IP address or full referring URL.

Outfits and preferences

When you choose Save outfit, signed-in players save the chosen item identifiers, wardrobe edition and save time with their game account. Guests save the chosen items and wardrobe edition only in this browser's local storage. Account and guest outfits are kept separately. Equipped items are shared with the multiplayer server and other racers so they can display your goblin. Account outfits remain with your account until changed or the account is deleted; clearing browser data removes a guest outfit.

The ordinary wardrobe is free during testing. There are no purchases or payments. Free preview choices do not grant permanent item ownership, and outfits will reset when the coin economy arrives. Event cosmetics earned while signed in are stored separately with your account, including the item, event and award time. Those unlocks survive wardrobe resets and remain until your account is deleted.

Sound, music and effects levels, map visibility, camera sensitivity and inversion, reduced motion, and touch-control size and side are remembered in this browser's local storage. These device preferences are separate from your account and are not synchronized across devices.

Deleting your account

While signed in at camp, open your Profile and choose Delete account. Type DELETE, choose Verify & delete account, and confirm with the same Google account. Completing that Google verification permanently deletes the game account. A short-lived, single-use verification challenge protects this action; the game does not store the Google identity token. This removes your account, its saved name and account outfit, profile totals, individual result records, tournament drafts, published versions, thumbnails, bookmarks, reports and suggestions from the active game database, and revokes all account logins and outstanding game tickets. A race already running may retain its loaded course until it ends. Clear this site's browser storage to remove local draft recovery copies, your guest outfit and device preferences.

You can continue playing as a guest. Signing in with Google again creates a new game account with an empty record; it does not restore the deleted account. Separately collected gameplay analytics are not linked to your account and follow the retention window described above.
