Privacy
Last updated 27 September 2026
- No cookies, no ads, no accounts, no tracking across sites.
- We count visits and jumps anonymously, without cookies, to see if people are playing.
- Your name, country, settings and personal bests stay on your own device.
- When you play online, your device connects directly to the other players, so they can see your IP address.
What is stored on your device
SKIVO uses no cookies. It saves a few settings in your browser's local storage so they're still there next time. They never leave your device.
| Key | What it holds |
|---|---|
skivo.name | The player name you typed |
skivo.country | The country you picked |
skivo.aids | Training aids on or off |
skivo.padLayout | Which side the touch buttons are on |
skivo.records | Your personal bests on each hill |
This storage is needed for features you use yourself, so it doesn't require consent. You can delete it at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser settings.
Visiting the site
The site, including its fonts and game code, is served from playskivo.com, which is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical data such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request, so it can deliver the site and protect it from abuse. We don't use this data to identify or track you. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Anonymous statistics
To see whether anyone is actually playing, we use Umami Cloud, a privacy-friendly analytics service. It uses no cookies and no local storage, and doesn't build profiles or follow you to other sites. It counts:
- page visits, with the country, device type, browser and the site that linked here;
- game events: a training or cup jump was made (hill, landed or fell, touch or keyboard), and a cup was hosted, joined, started or finished (with the number of players).
Your player name, the game code and your jumps' details are never sent. When the Umami script loads from cloud.umami.is, Umami receives your IP address to count the visit. Umami says it doesn't store IP addresses and only keeps anonymised numbers. If your browser sends a “Do Not Track” signal, nothing is counted. This is based on our legitimate interest in knowing how the game is used (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).
Playing online (Skivo Challenge Cup)
Nothing below happens unless you choose to host or join a cup.
- Finding each other. To connect players, the game uses the free PeerJS server (
0.peerjs.com). It sees your IP address and a random game ID while you're connected. - Connecting. Your browser may contact connection-helper servers to find a route to the other players: Google's STUN server (
stun.l.google.com) and PeerJS's relay servers (eu-0/us-0.turn.peerjs.com). If a direct connection isn't possible, game traffic is relayed through PeerJS's relay. - Direct connection. Players' browsers then talk to each other directly. That means the other players in your game can see your IP address, as with most online multiplayer games. Only play with people you're comfortable with.
- What you share. Your player name, country, jumps (the live picture of your jump), results and emoji reactions are sent to the other players in the same game. The host's browser keeps the scores until the game ends.
- Nothing is kept. SKIVO has no game server and no database of players. When the game ends or you close the page, it's gone.
Legal basis
Serving the site and keeping it secure is based on our legitimate interest in running a working, safe website (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)). The online features process data because you ask to play online (Art. 6(1)(b)). Some of the providers above may process data outside the EU; Cloudflare and Google use the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.
Your rights
You have the right to ask what data about you we hold, to have it corrected or deleted, and to object to its processing. In practice SKIVO holds no personal data about you on any server. What's on your device you can delete yourself. You also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority (in Finland, the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman).
Changes
If the game starts handling data differently, for example by adding accounts or online rankings, we'll update this page first and change the date at the top.
