Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2025

The Basics

Look, I'm not trying to be sketchy with your data. I'm too dumb to even bother trying to figure that out. This is just a gaming review site, not Facebook. Here's what I collect and why:

What I Collect

Your Account Stuff

When you sign up, I need your email and you pick a username. You can add a bio, profile picture, whatever. Basic stuff.

What You Post

Reviews, comments, ratings, likes - basically everything you do on the site gets saved. That's kind of the point.

Technical Stuff

Your IP address, what browser you're using, pages you visit - standard web server logs. Nothing fancy.

Login Cookies

Cookies to keep you logged in. You can clear them if you want, but you'll have to log in again.

What I Do With It
  • Run the website (obviously)
  • Show your reviews and profile to other people
  • Let you follow other users and like stuff
  • Try to fix bugs and make the site better
  • Keep spammers and trolls out
  • Comply with laws if I have to
Who Else Sees Your Data

Public Stuff

Your username, profile, reviews, and comments are public. That's the whole point - it's a review site.

Third-Party Services

I use some services to keep this site running:

  • Supabase: Handles the database and login stuff
  • Vercel: Hosts the website
  • NextAuth: Handles authentication

These services have their own privacy policies that I don't control.

Affiliate Links

I'm actively setting up affiliate links to help pay for hosting. When you click them, retailers might know you came from here. But I won't share your personal info with them.

Legal Stuff

If the cops show up with a warrant or court order, I'll have to comply. Hopefully that never happens.

Security

I try to keep your data secure with reasonable precautions, but I'm not a security expert. Nothing on the internet is 100% safe. Don't post anything you're not comfortable with being potentially exposed.

Your Rights

Editing Your Stuff

You can edit your profile, bio, and avatar. You can edit or delete your reviews and comments. For other changes, just email me.

Deleting Your Account

There's a delete button in your dashboard. When you use it, everything gets wiped - reviews, comments, profile, all of it. No backups, no recovery. You sure you want to do that?

Getting Your Data

Want a copy of your data? Email me and I'll figure out how to get it to you.

Kids

This site isn't for kids under 13. If you're under 13, don't use it. If you're a parent and your kid is using it, that's between you and them.

Changes

I might update this policy if I need to. If I make big changes, I'll update the date at the top and maybe post something about it.
