Privacy Policy

This policy describes how Shut Up and Play (“we”, “us”), operating at shutupandplay.games, collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website and related services.

Information we collect

  • Account information. If you create an account, we store what you provide for authentication and your profile (for example, email, display name, and optional profile fields) through our authentication provider.
  • Content you submit. Posts, comments, and similar content you publish are stored so we can operate the service and display it to others as you intend.
  • Technical data. Like most sites, our hosting and infrastructure may process technical information needed to deliver pages (for example, IP address, headers, and timestamps) as part of normal web operation.

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager), Cloudflare, and Vercel analytics or observability features to understand traffic, performance, and reliability. We use these tools for aggregated or operational insight. We do not use them to pass your account details or the text of your recommendations into advertising “trackers,” data brokers, or similar third-party marketing profiling products as described under Monetization and third-party scripts below.

Monetization and third-party scripts

We do not use third-party ad trackers, data brokers, or similar services to monetize by selling or licensing your personal data. We may introduce tasteful advertising, sponsorships, or promotions in the future; if we do, we will avoid loading opaque or “dirty” scripts that undermine your privacy or security, and we will update this policy when practices change materially.

Payments

If you use features that involve payments (such as tips), those flows are handled by our payment processor. We do not store full payment card numbers on our servers; the processor’s privacy policy governs card data.

Copyright

To report copyright concerns, use our DMCA page.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies as needed for sign-in, preferences, security, and measurement. Analytics tools above may set their own cookies or storage subject to their policies and your browser settings.

Retention

We keep information only as long as needed to run the service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may request account deletion subject to technical and legal constraints.

Children

The service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page and adjust the “Last updated” date above.
