Privacy policy

BoardNights is a social platform for playing board and card games together online. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the controls you have.

Information we collect

• Account: email, username, display name, avatar, bio.
• Gameplay: matches you play, actions you take, chat messages, XP, achievements, ratings.
• Presence: whether you are online and what you are currently doing on the site (for example "Playing Poker").
• Device: browser type, coarse locale, and diagnostic error logs.

How we use it

• To run matches, matchmaking, chat, leaderboards, and progression.
• To secure the service, prevent abuse, and enforce our community guidelines.
• To improve reliability by reviewing anonymised error logs.

Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. Your username, avatar, level, achievements, favourite games, and public match history appear on your profile page. Chat messages you send are visible to the other players at the table.

Your controls

• Edit or delete your profile from Settings.
• Turn off friend requests, or block a specific user, from Settings → Social.
• Request account deletion by emailing support@boardnights.app; we remove personal data within 30 days.

Data retention

Account and gameplay data is kept for as long as your account is active. Deleted accounts are purged within 30 days except for aggregated stats that no longer identify you.

Children

BoardNights is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will remove it.

Changes

We will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page when this policy changes. Significant changes will also be announced in-app.
