Black Box Trivia Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

What we collect. To run a game we keep the display name you type, your answers and your score in server memory for the length of the game. We don't ask for an email address, and we don't create accounts. A random identifier is stored in your browser so you can reconnect if your connection drops.

Game data. Game rooms are deleted automatically after they have been inactive for a short time. We don't sell game data.

Advertising. This site shows ads served by Google. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies at aboutads.info. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Leaderboard. When a game ends, the score, the player name you typed and the number of correct answers are checked against the leaderboard. Only scores that make the top 10 are saved. For those, we look up the country your internet connection is in and show it next to your name. We don't store your IP address. Rude words in names are replaced with symbols. To have a leaderboard entry removed, contact us.

Analytics. We use Google Analytics to count visits and games played, so we can see what people enjoy and fix problems. It uses cookies and collects information such as pages viewed, device type and approximate location, but not your name. See how Google uses this information.

Consent. Visitors in regions that require it (such as the EEA, UK and Switzerland) are shown a consent message before personalised ads are used.

Logs. Our hosting provider may keep standard server logs (such as IP address and browser type) for security and troubleshooting.

Children. This site is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13.
