Who runs this site
Trivia Cafe is operated by Freedom Games LLC (indie.io). Questions, corrections and data requests go through the contact form.
What we collect
| What | Why | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
| Page views, referrer, approximate region, device and browser type | To see which questions are played and which pages are broken | Google Analytics |
| Standard server logs, including IP address and user agent | Delivering pages, blocking abuse and scrapers | Cloudflare and our hosting provider |
| Your email address, if you sign up for the newsletter | To send the newsletter you asked for | Our database, and our email delivery provider |
| The display name and score you enter on a leaderboard | To show the leaderboard | Our database, shown publicly on the leaderboard |
| Up and down votes on questions | To rank popular questions | Our database (as a count, not tied to your name) |
| Anything you send through the contact form, and an email address if you give one | So we can act on it and reply | Stored on our own server and passed to the team member who handles it |
We do not ask for your postal address or payment details anywhere on this site.
Cookies and local storage
- Google Analytics sets cookies to count visits and tell a returning player from a new one.
- Your browser’s local storage remembers small things such as which questions you have already voted on or revealed. That stays on your device.
Blocking cookies does not stop you playing.
Advertising
Trivia Cafe shows no advertising and runs no advertising scripts or ad trackers. If that ever changes, this page will be updated before any ads appear.
Who we share it with
Only the services that make the site work: Google Analytics for measurement, Cloudflare and our hosting provider for delivery, and our email provider for the newsletter. We do not sell or rent your personal information.
Your choices
- Unsubscribe from the newsletter with the link in any issue, or ask us to remove your address.
- Ask what we hold about you, or ask us to delete it, through the contact form.
- Opt out of analytics with a content blocker or Google’s opt-out add-on.
- If you are in the EU, UK or California you have rights of access, correction and deletion under the GDPR or CCPA. Use the same form and we will action it.
Children
Some sections, such as Trivia Kids and Trivia Family, are made for younger players to enjoy with an adult. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and the only personal fields on the site (a newsletter email or a leaderboard name) should be filled in by a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Where data is held
Our servers are in the United States, and Cloudflare serves cached pages from locations around the world.
