Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 2, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Daily Games ("Daily", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares personal information when you use https://playdaily.org and related services.

1. Information We Collect

Account

Email address
Password credentials, handled by Supabase Auth
Google account email if you sign in with Google
Country or region, where available
Notification preferences

Payments

If you buy Daily Pro, Stripe handles checkout and billing under its own terms and privacy policy. We give Stripe your email address and your Daily account ID, so your payments stay with your account. We store your Stripe customer ID and your plan: Yearly or Lifetime, its status, and when it renews or ends. Whether your account has Pro is also recorded in your sign-in session, so pages can leave the ads off without asking our servers. We never receive or store full card numbers or security codes.

Gameplay

Game progress and best scores, saved to your account when you choose to
Answers and recent question identifiers sent to server-backed games for dealing and judging
Multiplayer display names, device identifiers, room presence, messages, reactions, and results

On-Device Game Progress

Every game on Daily can be played without an account. Depending on the game, progress, best scores, run options, and recently dealt content are stored in your browser's local storage. Clearing your browser data removes these local records.

Some features also process gameplay on our servers. What's Your Guess? sends your guesses, and the identifiers of the questions you were dealt lately, to deal questions and reveal results; it stores none of them. Krillion and Noillirk send typed answers for judging. An answer is checked against the game's own answer lists first; one the lists do not cover is sent with the game prompt to an OpenAI model, through Microsoft's Azure OpenAI Service, for a live judgment. Judgments and normalized answer text may be retained so later players receive a consistent result; they are stored with the prompt, not with your account or browser. Multiplayer features share room activity and store chat and leaderboard results through Supabase. A private room is open to anyone who has its six-digit code, and the room and its chat are deleted shortly after its last player leaves. Avoid including personal information in answers or room chat.

Contributions

If you send a contact message, puzzle idea, or rights report, we collect the contact details and text you provide. Submissions are screened with Google reCAPTCHA and stored in a private Google Sheet.

Tips

The "Buy me a coffee" links go to our page on Buy Me a Coffee, which takes the tip and its payment under its own terms and privacy policy. Buy Me a Coffee may share with us what you choose to leave there, such as a name and a message. A tip is not linked to your Daily account.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Authentication cookies that keep you signed in, and say whether your account has Daily Pro
Random browser cookies used to limit game API requests
Local storage for game preferences, progress, best scores, and multiplayer identity
Google Analytics cookies
Advertising cookies for visitors without Daily Pro (Mediavine and its advertising partners)
Grow (by Mediavine) cookies and identifiers on main site and game pages, for the favourites widget and advertising identity

2. How We Use Information

Create and secure your account
Run the games, their multiplayer rooms, and the progress saved to your account
Process Daily Pro payments and plan status through Stripe, which sends receipts and billing notices
Send transactional emails such as password resets
Send optional product emails if you opt in
Judge answers and run multiplayer rooms
Review contact messages, puzzle submissions, and rights reports
Detect cheating, abuse, and technical problems
Show ads that keep Daily free, and measure how the site is used

3. Advertising

Daily shows ads through Journey by Mediavine to visitors without Daily Pro. This site is affiliated with Mediavine for the purpose of placing that advertising, and Mediavine collects and uses certain data for advertising purposes. What Mediavine collects, who it shares or sells it to, and how to opt out are set out in the Mediavine Advertising Privacy Notice at the end of this page, which Mediavine inserts and keeps current itself.

Main site and game pages also load Grow, Mediavine's favourites and sharing widget. Grow uses cookies and identifiers that also support Mediavine's advertising; the opt-outs in the Mediavine Advertising Privacy Notice apply to it.

Daily Pro removes ads: when you are signed in to a Pro account, no ad is requested or shown. A device that was already signed in when you bought Pro catches up within the hour, from its next page. Grow and analytics work the same with or without Pro. This page is the one place where the Mediavine script runs for every visitor, and it runs here only to add that notice, not to serve ads.

We do not share your email or gameplay data with advertisers.

4. Service Providers

We rely on:

Supabase for the database and authentication
Stripe for payments
Google for sign-in (OAuth), reCAPTCHA, Analytics, and Sheets
Journey by Mediavine for advertising and the Grow widget
Vercel for hosting
Cloudflare for content delivery and game file storage
Sanity for stories and articles
OpenAI models, through Microsoft Azure, for live judging of some Krillion and Noillirk answers
Buy Me a Coffee for optional tips
Third-party services that deliver some of the media shown in our games

Each provider processes data under its own terms and privacy policy. Media may load directly from its providers, which receive your IP address and standard request information. We do not send your account or scores to those media providers. Other providers receive the information needed for the functions described above.

5. Public Information

Your scores, ranks, and shared results may be visible to other players. Multiplayer participants can also see room display names, messages, reactions, presence, and game results.

6. What We Do Not Do

We do not sell or rent your email address. We do not store full payment card details. We do not share your account or gameplay data with advertisers.

7. Data Retention

Active accounts: kept while the account is active
Deleted accounts: deleted or anonymized within 90 days where practical
On account deletion we remove linked game wallets, purchases, leaderboard entries, ratings, and messages attributable to the account. Opponents keep their duel outcomes with the deleted side anonymized. Shared answer lists, game statistics, and independent guest play are retained. Older messages or gameplay records without reliable account ownership follow their normal retention periods.
Payment records: Stripe keeps its records of your payments, including after your account is deleted, as required for tax, accounting, and fraud prevention. The billing details we store are deleted with your account.

8. Security

We use HTTPS, access controls, and managed providers. No system is perfectly secure.

9. Your Choices

You can update your notification preferences in account settings, and adjust ad personalization through Google. To request deletion or a copy of your data, email privacy@playdaily.org.

10. Regional Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or port your data. Email privacy@playdaily.org to exercise them.

11. Children's Privacy

Daily is not intended for children under 13. If we learn that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will delete it.

12. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in Canada, the United States, or other countries where our providers operate.

13. Changes

We may update this policy. Material changes will be posted on our website or sent by email when appropriate.
