Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 18, 2025

1. Introduction

Say the Word on Beat (“we,” “our,” or “us”) cares about your privacy. This notice explains what we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have when you use our site and games.

2. Information We Collect

We collect limited information to keep the site running smoothly:

  • Usage data: Pages viewed, buttons clicked, and general traffic patterns.
  • Device info: Browser type, operating system, approximate location, screen size, and IP address.
  • Cookies/local storage: Small files that remember preferences and help the site load faster.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use this information to:

  • Run and improve the site and rhythm challenges.
  • Measure what features people use so we can prioritize fixes and updates.
  • Prevent abuse, fraud, or technical issues.

4. Third-Party Services

We embed or link to services like YouTube and TikTok. When you interact with those embeds, their own privacy policies apply:

Music note: Challenge sounds belong to their respective owners. If you use them, please follow the original rights holder’s terms.

5. Camera Access (Rhythm Challenges)

When you turn on the camera for rhythm play, the video stays in your browser to draw effects. We do not record, store, or send that feed anywhere.

6. Custom Challenges (User-Uploaded Content)

If you upload images for a Custom Challenge:

  • Storage: We store the files so they can be shown in your challenge.
  • Scope: We only display them inside the challenge experience.

Private Challenges (Link Sharing):

  • 24-hour expiration: Private challenges delete themselves after one day, along with uploaded images.
  • Link access: Links are unlisted, but anyone with the link can view and play. Share carefully.

Community Challenges (Published):

  • Review first: Published challenges are checked by our team before they appear.
  • Public: Approved challenges are visible and playable by anyone.
  • Removal: Ask us at privacy@saythewordonbeat.org if you want a published challenge taken down.

7. Cookies

We use cookies/local storage for preferences and performance. You can block them in your browser, but some features may break.

8. Data Security

We use industry-standard safeguards, but no internet service is perfectly secure. Please use strong passwords and updated devices.

9. Children's Privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you think a child provided us data, contact us to remove it.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your region, you may be able to access, correct, or delete your data and object to certain processing. Reach out and we’ll help.
