Effective Date: February 25, 2026
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how Lucas Carpenter ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, and protects information in connection with your access to and use of the Carp Game Room web application and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Policy.
1.1 Information You Provide
We may collect information that you voluntarily provide when using the Service, including:
You are not required to create an account to use the Service. No email, phone number, or personal identification is collected.
1.2 Automatically Collected Information
When you access the Service, we may automatically collect limited technical information, including:
This information is collected solely for operational, security, and performance purposes.
1.3 Local Storage
Your display name may be stored locally within your browser using local storage. This information is not transmitted to Company servers for identification purposes and remains entirely under your control.
We use collected information solely to:
We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties.
All game session data — including room state, player information, clues, votes, and game results — is stored exclusively in server memory (RAM) and is never written to a persistent database.
Session data is automatically and permanently destroyed when:
We do not retain game content beyond the active session. There is no data to export or delete because nothing is persisted.
The Service does not use cookies, advertising trackers, or third-party analytics tools. We do not track users across websites or sessions.
We do not disclose personal information except in the following limited circumstances:
Service Providers: To trusted third-party service providers who assist in operating the Service (e.g., hosting infrastructure), subject to confidentiality obligations.
Legal Requirements: If required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
Protection of Rights: To protect the rights, property, or safety of Company, users, or the public.
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Communications between your browser and our server are encrypted via TLS/SSL. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Because no persistent user accounts or databases are maintained, and all session data is automatically destroyed when rooms close, there is typically no personal data to access, correct, or delete.
You may clear your locally stored display name at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or site data.
The Service is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information through the Service, please contact us so that we may take appropriate action.
If you access the Service from outside the United States, you acknowledge and agree that information may be processed and stored in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate.
We may update this Policy from time to time at our sole discretion. Any changes will be effective upon posting the revised Policy. Your continued use of the Service after such changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
