Privacy Policy
RATED is a product of 3BG, LLC. This policy explains how we use information to run profiles, multiplayer games, optional custom topics, purchases, and support.
Profiles and guests
Profiles use a display name and last initial, which are visible to players in your room. You do not need to give a legal name. Guests provide a display name and last initial without creating a profile. We assign account and room-player identifiers and use session credentials to recognize you. New profiles do not require email or date of birth; earlier beta records may contain those fields and email preferences. Prepared review profiles use a private invitation code. We store its hash, expiry and revocation status, and issue a separate session on sign-in. Deleting a review profile erases its data; a still-valid invitation can create a clean demo profile. Each reviewer role uses a separate invitation.
Age and children
RATED is intended for people age 13 and older and is not directed to children under 13. Do not create a profile or join a game if you are under 13. After Hours requires age 18 or older. If you believe a child under 13 supplied personal information, contact [email protected] so we can investigate and remove it.
Games and custom topics
We store room codes, player names and identifiers, votes, progress, topic choices, hosting history, and community voting records to run games. Other players in your room can see the information shown during gameplay. With your explicit permission, custom topic text goes to OpenAI for safety checks and game content. New accepted submissions are linked to their creator and room. They are not automatically promoted into the curated catalog. Do not enter private or sensitive information about yourself or anyone else. Older app versions must be updated before submitting new Custom topics under these safeguards; existing room progress and curated games remain available. We retain recent topic exposure for up to 90 days under your account or opaque guest identifier to reduce repeated topics across rooms.
Age eligibility and purchases
The app uses an age-eligibility result on your device, or an adult confirmation where available, for restricted features. Our server receives an adult-eligibility flag, not the age range supplied by Apple or Google. Earlier beta profiles may still contain a birthdate. Apple or Google processes store payments under its own terms. RATED receives purchase identifiers and entitlement information to verify access, restore purchases, and handle refunds. For Google Play purchases, we send Google an obfuscated RATED profile identifier and keep encrypted purchase tokens on our server while the profile exists. We do not receive payment card details. Explicit Restore Purchases can move a verified pack entitlement to your current RATED profile; it does not reveal or restore the previous profile’s personal data. Minimal store references, original purchase bindings and refund records remain after profile deletion to prevent duplicate or refunded access. Fresh Apple restore proof is verified and its temporary replay-prevention hash expires. Sandbox and license-test purchases grant temporary testing access for up to seven days after fresh store verification or an explicit verified restore. They do not create a permanent production purchase.
Providers and technical data
Cloudflare hosts our service, database, cached images, and live room connections, and processes network requests such as IP addresses and request metadata. RATED records request status and timing to troubleshoot and secure games. OpenAI processes permitted custom-topic prompts for safety checks and game content. Player-facing image routes serve the approved cached catalog; they do not generate arbitrary custom images. RATED does not offer narration or collect microphone recordings. Short-lived, hashed abuse counters help limit repeated sign-in and other sensitive requests. Resend handles verification, sign-in, and opted-in messages for profiles with email records. Support email is processed by our email service. The Google Play Billing library includes billing diagnostic event delivery to Google. These events and store-side processing are separate from the purchase records RATED receives.
Safety reports and blocks
Room Safety stores the reporting identity, reported participant or submission, room, reason, a copy of reported content or the reported display name, timestamps and resolution status. Blocks use an account identifier or an opaque guest identity stored on your device. Guest safety credentials remain after leaving a room so you can manage blocks; changing identity may bypass a block. We use these records to investigate abuse and enforce our rules. Profile deletion removes linked submissions and blocks and removes the profile link from reports. Minimal reported evidence and a pseudonymous moderation target may remain to investigate abuse, including reports about a deleted profile. Suspension records remain until reviewed and cleared. Resolved reports are removed through our operational cleanup process after 30 days; unresolved reports remain until handled. Unused guest safety identities with no room, report, block or suspension are removed after 30 days without activity. Contact support for guest-data deletion.
How information is used
We use information to provide gameplay, remember profiles, verify access and purchases, prevent misuse, troubleshoot problems, and respond to requests. Earlier email preferences govern optional marketing messages. RATED does not sell personal data, serve third-party advertising, or use advertising identifiers to track you across other companies’ apps and websites.
Storage on your device
The app saves account and room credentials in protected device storage and remembers preferences, a guest display name, and adult confirmation. Deleting a profile clears its saved credentials, the saved room session, guest name, adult confirmation, and AI consent on that device. Other devices lose server access; old local copies may remain until cleared or the app is removed. Saved room credentials expire after 12 hours. RATED asks before resuming an unfinished room. You can sign out on this device or revoke all account sessions from Profile. Protected account sessions remain valid until you sign out, delete the profile, or we revoke access for security. Review invitations have their own expiry. Room access already granted remains separately scoped until you leave or that room expires.
Retention and deletion
Profile records remain until deleted. Rooms and their player/vote records expire after 30 days without room or player activity; independent community voting records may remain until profile deletion. Delete your profile from the Profile screen, or request deletion at www.ratedthegame.com/delete-account/ without installing the app. Deletion removes your profile, sessions, linked room participation and votes, community vote records, hosting history, email preferences, and RATED purchase links. It ends games hosted by your profile. Other players’ records remain. A minimal cleanup record may temporarily remain if an email provider or room cache is unavailable, until that cleanup is completed. For Google Play purchases, deletion also erases stored purchase tokens and stops their pending verification work. We retain a hashed transaction identifier, the original obfuscated profile identifier, product and verification status without the deleted profile link. These limited recovery records have no automatic expiry so lifetime purchases can be restored and duplicate claims prevented; contact support to request their removal, which can prevent automatic restoration. Explicit Restore Purchases can move a verified pack entitlement to your current RATED profile; it does not reveal or restore the previous profile’s personal data. Minimal store references, original purchase bindings and refund records remain after profile deletion to prevent duplicate or refunded access. Fresh Apple restore proof is verified and its temporary replay-prevention hash expires.
Shared content and provider records
New custom submissions are attributable and removed from active RATED records through the applicable deletion process. Earlier custom topics may remain in a legacy shared catalog without a reliable creator link; contact support with topic or room details for removal. Deletion cannot remove copies already seen or saved by other players. We disable retrievable response storage for new text generations, but provider safety logs, prompt caches, backups, store transaction records and support correspondence may remain under provider practices or applicable legal requirements. Deletion does not refund store purchases.
Requests and contact
Email [email protected] for support, access, correction, or deletion requests, including guest data. We verify ownership before deleting data and aim to respond within 30 days. You do not need to reinstall RATED to make a request. Do not send passwords, session tokens, payment card details, or identity documents in your initial email. Safety reports are prioritized separately: we aim to assess urgent threats promptly and other abuse reports within 24 hours.
