Privacy

Updated November 13, 2026

Slowplay is a turn-based word game. We keep only what the game needs to work, we don't show ads, and we don't sell or share your data.

What we store

Your account: a username, and a random ID that keeps you signed in on your device. If you use Sign in with Apple, we store the anonymous ID Apple gives us. We never ask for or store your name, email or phone number.
Your games: boards, moves, scores and results, which your opponents see too.
Chat: notes and reactions you send in games. Links, contact details and offensive words are removed before they're saved.
Friends: who you've added, friend requests, and anyone you've blocked or reported.
Notifications: if you turn them on, a push token from Apple so we can tell you when it's your turn.
Word suggestions you send from the dictionary.

Games against the computer are played on your phone; we only keep their results for your record.

What we don't do

No ads, no tracking across apps or websites, no analytics SDKs.
No selling or sharing your data with anyone.
No access to your contacts, photos or location.

Who can see what

Other players can see your username, your games with them, your record against them, and messages you send in those games. Nobody else can.

Where it lives

Data is stored on servers run by Railway in the United States. Server logs (which include IP addresses) are kept briefly to keep the service running and are not used for anything else.

Deleting your account

In the app, open the menu, then Settings, then Delete account. This removes your username, sign-in details, push tokens, friends and requests right away. Finished games stay visible to your opponents, but show a deleted player instead of you.

Kids

Slowplay isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information.
