| Hung on the ring | Why Tormod needs it | How long it stays hung |
|---|---|---|
| Nickname | Lets the game greet you by the name you chose | Kept while the hut stays in your name |
| Email address | Matches you to your own hut whenever you log in again | Kept while the hut stays in your name |
| Password hash | Checks your login without anyone here ever knowing the password | Kept while the hut stays in your name |
| Sign-up date | Replying to your notes and stopping abuse of the huts | Kept while the hut stays in your name |
Nothing else hangs on the ring. Your real name, address, date of birth, phone number and payment details are never asked for, because no hut on the lake sells anything. The password is kept only as a one-way hash. Lawful basis: performance of a contract (running the account you asked for). Deleting your account wipes all of it at once, and the button for that waits on your account page.

Pressing “Accept all” lets Google Analytics and Google Ads tags measure visits and whether our adverts lead to play, such as a first spin being made. Google then receives your IP address, device information and those events. Pressing “Essential only” keeps the tags in consent mode, with no cookies and no advertising identifiers. Lawful basis: consent.
For security, our host holds ordinary request logs for a short while before they are cleared. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.
At any time you may access, correct, erase or restrict your information, object to processing, and withdraw your consent.

Only adults aged 19 or over may walk out onto the ice at Auger Hole Lake. Each reel turns on virtual coins carrying no monetary value, and nobody can buy, sell, withdraw or exchange them. You will find no bait shop for coins and no payment page in any hut, no prize of real-world value is ever reeled in, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
