Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 27, 2026 โข Website: https://partynights.online
Summary: PartyNights.online is built with privacy-by-design. We do not require account registration, passwords, email logins, or phone numbers to play any of our party games. Multiplayer room states run ephemerally in your browser.
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how PartyNights.online ("we", "our", or "us") collects, uses, and safeguards information when you visit and play games on https://partynights.online. We are committed to transparency and honoring user privacy rights under global regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
2. Information We Do NOT Collect
Because PartyNights.online operates as a zero-friction party game arcade:
- We do not collect personal names, email addresses, passwords, home addresses, or phone numbers.
- We do not require credit card or financial billing information; all our core party games are completely free.
- We do not record audio, video, or camera streams. Forehead games (like Charades Rush) utilize native device orientation sensors (gyroscope/accelerometer) processed entirely on your local device without sending sensor data across the internet.
3. Cookies, Web Beacons & Google AdSense
To support hosting, multiplayer bandwidth, and continuous game additions, PartyNights.online works with third-party advertising vendors, including Google AdSense:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites across the Internet.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to PartyNights.online and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings page.
- Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices or the Your Online Choices portal for EU residents.
4. Browser Local Storage & Peer-to-Peer Networking
Our games utilize modern web technologies to deliver instant multiplayer gaming without server-side database accounts:
- Local Storage (localStorage & sessionStorage): We store lightweight preferences locally on your device, such as your chosen player nickname, Family Mode toggle, audio mute preferences, and active room codes so that refreshing the page does not disconnect you from an ongoing match. This data never leaves your browser.
- Peer-to-Peer WebRTC Data Channels: Online room games connect player controllers to the Host or TV Board using encrypted client-side data channels. Match data (such as secret words or votes) is transmitted ephemerally between players in the room and is wiped upon room termination.
5. Log Files & Analytics
Like standard web servers, our static hosting providers (such as GitHub Pages and Fastly CDN) may automatically log standard technical information, including your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, referring URL, and date/time stamps. This aggregate data is used strictly for server health, DDoS prevention, and traffic diagnostics.
6. GDPR Compliance (For EEA / UK Users)
Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation, EEA and UK residents have specific rights regarding their personal data, including the right to request access, rectification, or erasure of any data processed. Because we do not store identifying personal accounts, most user data exists solely in your browser's local cache, which you can clear at any time via your browser settings.
7. CCPA / CPRA Compliance (For California Residents)
The California Consumer Privacy Act provides California residents with rights regarding their personal information. We do not sell user personal data. Third-party advertising cookies are managed in accordance with California law, and users can opt out through the industry tools linked above.
8. Children's Online Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
PartyNights.online does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. Furthermore, every game includes a dedicated ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ Family Mode toggle that disables all adult, spicy, or mature prompts to ensure safe, kid-friendly entertainment at all times.
9. Updates to This Policy
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect technical, legal, or operational enhancements. Updates will be published on this page with an updated revision date.
