Smarter
Privacy Policy
Smarter is a small daily-learning game you play with friends. We built it to be light and private: no accounts, no email, no passwords, and no ad tracking. This page explains exactly what we keep and why.
What we collect
You don’t create an account. You join a group with a short group code and pick a display name (you choose it — it doesn’t have to be your real name). The only things we store are what the game needs to work:
- Your group — its name, its code, and its members’ display names.
- Your play — the topics you vote for, your quiz answers, and your learning streak.
- Notifications (only if you turn them on) — a device push token, so we can send the reminders you asked for. Turn notifications off and it’s removed.
- Feedback you send us — if you shake your phone or tap “Send feedback,” we store the message you type plus a little context (the app version and which screen you were on) so we can act on it.
We do not ask for or collect your email address, phone number, contacts, location, photos, or any government identifier.
How content is made
Each day’s topics and lessons are drawn from public, reputable sources (encyclopedic and science references) and lightly summarized with Cloudflare Workers AI. Your personal data is never used to generate content.
Analytics — anonymous and aggregate
To understand whether the app is working and growing, we measure usage in a way that can’t identify you:
- Cloudflare Web Analytics — privacy-first, cookieless traffic counts. No cross-site tracking, no advertising profiles.
- Aggregate event counts (e.g. “a topic was proposed”) recorded with random identifiers — never your name, and not linked to you across other apps or websites.
- Error monitoring — we use a diagnostics service (Sentry) to catch crashes and bugs so we can fix them. It records technical error details, not advertising profiles.
We don’t use third-party advertising or marketing SDKs, and we don’t sell or share your data.
Where it’s stored, and for how long
Data is stored on Cloudflare infrastructure (our hosting and storage provider). Groups that go quiet are automatically deleted after about two weeks of inactivity. You can leave a group at any time, which removes you from it.
Children
Smarter isn’t directed to children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect personal information from them.
Your choices
- Notifications: turn them on or off anytime in the app; turning them off deletes your push token.
- Leave a group: removes your display name and play from that group.
- Delete data: email us and we’ll remove a group or member on request.
Changes
If we change this policy, we’ll update the date above. Material changes will be noted in the app.
