Privacy Policy

Kencha Games · last updated October 25, 2026

This policy explains what information is handled when you play games made by Kencha Games ("we", "our"), such as Tiny Rowers (formerly River Madness), on the web at kencha.games and in our Android app (package games.kencha.tinyrowers).

What we collect

We collect nothing that identifies you. Our games have no accounts, no sign-up and no forms. We do not collect your name, email, IP address, precise location or contacts, and on the web we use no cookies. The Android app shows ads through Google AdMob, which collects some data of its own (see Advertising below).

Gameplay statistics and leaderboard

To understand how the game is played and to run the global leaderboard, when you play on kencha.games or in the Android app the game sends a few events to our own server: when the game opens, how many seconds it was on screen, and for each run the boat used, its length in seconds, the meters reached and how it ended. Each event carries a random ID created by the game and stored on your device (in the browser's local storage on the web, in the app's own storage on Android; it is not linked to you, your device or your account), the game version, the platform (web or Android) and the country reported by our hosting provider (Cloudflare). Leaderboard names are generated from that random ID (for example "Swift Otter"). We keep these statistics to improve the game; you can erase the random ID by clearing your browser's site data or the app's storage (or by uninstalling the app), and you can ask us to delete the data linked to it at the address below.

We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which counts page visits without cookies or personal data. Our site is hosted by Cloudflare: Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Game progress

Your progress (best distances, pebbles, boats and looks you bought, and settings) is stored on your device (the browser's local storage on the web, the app's storage on Android) so the game can remember it next time. You can erase it by clearing your browser's site data or the app's storage. It is never sent to our server.

Advertising

On the web our games show no advertisements.

In the Android app you can choose to watch a rewarded ad to double a gift of pebbles; ads never appear unless you tap "Watch ad". These ads are served by Google AdMob. To show and measure them, Google may collect your device's advertising ID, IP address, device and app information and ad interactions, and may use them to personalize ads where the law allows. We do not receive or store that data. See how Google uses information from apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.

In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the app asks for your consent through Google's consent message before ads are personalized; you can change your choice at any time from the app's settings. On any Android device you can reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads in Settings → Google → Ads (or Settings → Privacy → Ads). Ad content is limited to material suitable for general audiences.

Children

Our games are intended for players aged 13 and over and contain no chat, user content or real-money purchases (pebbles, the in-game currency, are earned only by playing). They are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
