Privacy Policy

RowdyAF is built to collect as little as possible. Players don't create accounts, and nothing you say into your phone's microphone is recorded. This page explains what the game does handle and why.

No accounts for players

To play, you only enter a room code, a name (a nickname is fine) and pick a team. We don't ask for your email, phone number or real name, and we don't sell or share personal information with advertisers.

What a game room keeps

While a show is running, the game room on our servers holds what it needs to run the game: player names and teams, scores, answers you type, votes, drawings and the game log. Everyone in that room can see names, scores and anything shown on the TV. Rooms are short-lived and are not linked to your identity. Don't type anything into the game you wouldn't want the room to see.

On your device

Your phone stores small preferences in its browser (for example your name for a room, whether you've confirmed you're 18+, and which questions this device has already played) so you don't have to re-enter them. You can clear these at any time by clearing your browser's site data.

Microphone, motion and camera

• Microphone (Karaoke Showdown): your phone listens only while you're singing, to measure volume and pitch steadiness on the device. No audio is recorded, stored or sent — only a score number and a live loudness level go to the room.
• Motion and tilt (Shake War, Quick Draw, Spotlight): read on your phone only while that game is live. Only counts, timings and aim positions are sent to the room.
• The game never uses your camera or location.

You can deny any of these permissions and still play using on-screen buttons.

Hosts and the TV

Hosts don't need an account either. Show settings (team names, music links, chosen games) are kept on the host's device and in the room. If you cast to a TV or use a TV browser, that screen connects to the room to display the show.

Third-party services

• YouTube and Spotify: if a host adds a playlist, it plays through those services, which may set their own cookies and collect data under their own privacy policies.
• Hosting: RowdyAF runs on the Base44 platform, which processes standard technical data (like IP addresses in server logs) to deliver and secure the site.
• Fonts: text styles load from Google Fonts.

Content admins

The only accounts are for people who manage the game's content. Those accounts store the admin's name and email to sign in and are not used for marketing.

Children

RowdyAF isn't directed at children under 13 and doesn't knowingly collect personal information from them. After Dark and Lifestyle modes are for adults 18+ only. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we'll delete it.

Your choices

Because players don't have accounts, most data disappears when a room ends. To ask about or delete anything associated with you, email support@rowdyaf.tv.

Changes

We'll update this page if anything changes; the date at the top shows the latest version. See also our Terms of Use.
