Privacy Policy

Your first & last name and/or nickname are visible to anybody who is provided with a game night or tournament invitation or admin link. This is necessary to coordinate game nights and tournaments. All game nights and tournaments can be created in private mode, restricting access to game nights to users with access to either the invite or admin link, both secured with unique (uuid-4) 128-bit tokens.

Your contact information and game night statistics (which you can see on game night detail pages when adding plays) are visible to GK visitors or invited users (if gamenight is private). This is done so that you can provide a location for your game night, which allows invited users to estimate travel times before signing up for a game night.

Your game nights, board game bags and tournaments are visible to all visitors of GK (except for game nights if the game night is private)
Your board game suggestions, board game suggestion votes, board game votes and board game collection are visible to all visitors of GK (if game night is not private) or invited users to the respective game nights exclusively (if gamenight is private).
This is necessary for coordinating game nights, board game bags and tournaments on GK.

We are using GoogleAnalytics to learn more about the visitors and users of GK. We do this to be able to estimate when and how our services need to be scaled to provide the best service possible to our visitors.

GK uses your submissions to apply algorithms to find best matching tournament opponents and board games for game nights. GK performs statistical and machine-learning-based analyses of your submissions in order to improve the services offered by GK. These analyses may be reported publically, in which case: (a) only aggregate measures will be reported; and (b) you will not be identifiable in any manner.

GK will not provide your information to any person or organization other than those described in this Privacy Policy, unless GK receives explicit "opt in" permission from you to do so or unless GK is required to do so by law or court order.

GK stores your information and contributions/submissions on its own web server and stores backups in the cloud. The web servers and cloud servers are located in Germany. All access to the GK web site is done through encrypted (TLS/SSL) communication.

Your stored password is encrypted. In the event that your stored password becomes public (e.g. through an attack on the GK server), the encoding makes it more difficult to decrypt by brute force.

You can modify your information through Profile -> Edit Account.

You can request the deletion of your account by emailing to simon@gameknight.ai. After account deletion, your information will be retained in logs and backups until expiry. However, any submissions that you have made to gamenights and tournaments will be retained for the corresponding gamenights and/or tournaments.

Please contact the gamenight/tournament host if you want that information also deleted.

Please contact simon@gameknight.ai with any questions or concerns.
