Privacy
Short version: no account, no analytics, no ads, nothing sold. Lollipop does its work on your PC. Below is every time it goes online, and why.
The app
- Update checkAsks GitHub for the newest version 15 seconds after it starts, then every 6 hours. Installers come from GitHub too.
- Track mapsDownloads the map of the track layout you're on from iRacing's public file server, once, and keeps it on your PC.
- Twitch chatOnly if you fill in a channel. Reads that channel's public chat as an anonymous viewer: no login, it can't post.
- Stint planOnly if you paste your own iRacePlan API key. Reads your team's plan. Nothing is ever written to iRacePlan.
- Team fuel sharingOnly with a team code. More below.
- OBS micOnly if you connect it. Talks to OBS on your own PC to read whether your mic is on or muted.
That's all. Your races, lap times and settings stay in %APPDATA%\Lollipop on your PC. Race review's share card
shows car numbers, never names. Your API key and team code are stored encrypted for your Windows user.
Team fuel sharing
Teams go through Lollipop's own small server (on Cloudflare). It keeps only the team's name and its codes, as hashes, so the codes themselves can't be read back. While a teammate drives, their app sends the car's fuel figures about once a second. The server passes them on to the other teammates in the same session and keeps only the latest figures, until everyone has left the session. To stop abuse, it briefly counts new teams and wrong codes per internet address. A team that isn't used for 12 months is deleted, and the owner can delete it at any time.
This website
No cookies, no analytics, no trackers, and nothing loaded from other companies. The site runs on Cloudflare, which handles every request (and so sees your IP address) to deliver the page. The Download button takes you to GitHub, which serves the installer. What's new reads the release notes from GitHub through this site.
Other drivers
The overlays show what iRacing shows you in the sim, such as names on the Relative. If you stream, viewers see that too. iRacing's terms ask that you respect other members' privacy, so think about what you put on stream.
