Privacy notice
karmaracoon is a playful karma scoreboard for events. We keep the data we collect to the minimum needed to run it.
Anonymous identity
When you scan a station we set a functional, anonymous cookie (kr_id) plus a localStorage mirror. It holds a random token — no name, no email, no tracking across other sites. It only links your repeat scans to the same scoreboard entry. Because it is strictly functional, no consent banner is required.
Your display name + team
The handle you choose and your optional team are stored to show you on the leaderboard. Organisers can moderate (hide) names.
Abuse prevention
To deter farming we store a salted hash of your IP address with each check-in. We never store your raw IP address.
Organisers
Event organisers register with an email and password. Passwords are stored only as bcrypt hashes.
No third-party trackers
There are no analytics or advertising trackers in karmaracoon.
