Privacy
This site collects as little as it can. Here is all of it, in plain words.
Last updated 5 October 2026
Who we are
Laika Game Studios, an independent game studio based in Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand. For anything on this page, write to gamedev@laikadynamics.com.
What we collect
Your email address, if you type it into the signup form. Nothing else — no name, no address, and we do not ask you to make an account.
Aggregate page views, through Vercel Analytics. It is cookieless and does not build a profile of you or follow you to other sites, which is why this site has no consent banner.
Ordinary server logs, kept by our host. These include your IP address and browser user-agent, and exist so the site can be operated and abuse can be stopped.
What stays on your own device
The 3D world remembers how far through it you have travelled so it can greet you on a return visit. That is stored in your browser’s local storage, never sent to us, and never seen by us. Clearing your browser’s site data for this site erases it.
Cookies
This site sets no cookies of its own, and our analytics does not set any either. The local storage described above is not a cookie and is not used to track you.
Why we have your email
To send devlogs and playtest invitations — the two things the signup form promises, and nothing else. We do not sell it, rent it, or pass it to anyone for their own marketing.
Who else can see it
Resend stores the list and delivers the email. Vercel hosts the site and provides the analytics. Both act on our instructions. We use no other processors.
How long we keep it
Until you unsubscribe, which you can do from the footer of any email we send. After that we remove you from the list.
Your rights
Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020 you may ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, and ask us to delete it. Email gamedev@laikadynamics.com and we will do it. If you are in the UK or EU, the same requests are honoured.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information. If you believe a child has signed up, email us and we will remove it.
Changes
If what we collect changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. We will not quietly broaden it.
