Privacy Policy

This policy explains how BringMe! handles information about Game Masters (hosts with an account), players (who join with a QR code) and anyone visiting our website.

Game Masters

• Your email address, a display name if you add one, and your password (stored securely by our login provider — we never see it).
• The games you create: titles, items to bring, rounds and results.
• Your Game Passes and order history.

Players

• The nickname you choose, and when you joined and were last active in the game.
• The photos you submit and how fast you submitted them.
• Technical timing details (like connection speed and upload attempts) so rounds are judged fairly.

Players don't create an account and we don't ask for their email or phone number.

• BringMe! asks for camera permission only so you can snap items during a round. We never use your microphone.
• A photo is taken only when you tap the shutter, and only that photo is uploaded.
• You can turn off camera access at any time in your browser settings.

• Game Passes are paid through Polar, our payment provider. Your card or payment details go directly to Polar — we never receive or store them.
• To start a checkout we share your account email, an internal account ID, and your IP address (which helps with currency and tax).
• Polar sends us the order details we need to activate your pass, such as the amount, currency, payment status and order references.
• Polar handles your payment information under its own privacy policy.

• To run games: lobbies, rounds, timing, judging and announcing winners.
• To activate Game Passes and enforce their player limits.
• To keep BringMe! secure and fair, prevent abuse and fix problems.
• To reply when you contact us.

• Everyone in a game can see the players' nicknames.
• The host can see every photo submitted in their game, to judge it.
• The winning photo is shown to everyone in that game when the winner is announced. Other players never see your photo otherwise.
• We don't sell your information and don't use it for advertising.

We use trusted providers to run BringMe!: Supabase (database, login and private photo storage), Polar (payments) and our website hosting provider. They process information only to provide their service to us. We may also share information if the law requires it.

• Login cookies keep Game Masters signed in.
• A player cookie keeps you in your game if you refresh or lose connection. It expires after 12 hours.
• If you allow Preferences, we remember your Snappy boop count, sound setting and list/card view in your browser only. Choose “Cookie settings” in the footer to change this anytime; turning it off deletes them.
• We don't use advertising or third-party tracking cookies.

• Account information is kept while your account is open.
• Games, results and photos are kept with the host's game history until the host's account is closed or you ask us to delete them.
• Payment and order records are kept as long as needed for accounting, tax and legal requirements.
• Homepage boops are simply added to one anonymous total. We don't record who tapped or when.

Photos are kept in private storage and opened only through short-lived links for the people allowed to see them. Access to data is checked on our servers, and connections are encrypted. No system is perfect, but we work hard to protect your information.

You can ask us to show you, correct, or delete the information we hold about you. Players can ask for their photos to be removed from a game. Depending on where you live, you may have extra rights under your local privacy law, including the right to complain to your data protection authority.

BringMe! isn't meant for young children to use on their own; kids should play with a parent, guardian or teacher hosting. We may update this policy as BringMe! grows — we'll change the date at the top, and show important changes in the app.
