Last updated: May 24, 2026
1. Overview
HuddlePlay (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By using HuddlePlay, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Host Accounts
When you create a host account, we collect:
- Email address (for authentication and account management)
- Name or display name (if provided via Google OAuth)
- Profile picture (if provided via Google OAuth)
- Billing information (processed and stored by Stripe — we never see or store your full card number)
- Subscription status and plan tier
Guest Players
Players who join a game session without an account provide only:
- A display name (chosen by the player for the session)
Guest data is temporary and session-scoped. It is not linked to any persistent user profile and is not used for any purpose beyond facilitating the game session.
Automatically Collected Data
- IP address and basic device/browser information (collected by our hosting infrastructure)
- Usage data such as pages visited and features used (used to improve the Service)
3. How We Use Your Information
- To create and manage your host account
- To process subscription payments via Stripe
- To provide, operate, and improve the Service
- To communicate with you about your account, subscription, or support requests
- To comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for advertising.
4. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services that may process your data:
- Supabase — Authentication, database, and real-time infrastructure. Your email and session data are stored in Supabase. Supabase Privacy Policy
- Stripe — Payment processing. Stripe stores your billing information securely. We receive only a customer token and subscription status. Stripe Privacy Policy
- Google OAuth — Optional sign-in method. If you sign in with Google, Google shares your email and profile name with us per their OAuth policies. Google Privacy Policy
- Vercel — Hosting and edge infrastructure. Vercel may collect IP addresses and request logs as part of serving the application. Vercel Privacy Policy
5. Data Retention
Host account data is retained as long as your account is active. Game session data (scores, answers, room records) is retained to support your session history and is subject to periodic cleanup. If you delete your account, your personal data will be removed from our systems within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.
Guest session data is temporary and automatically purged after the session ends.
