Privacy
Last updated: July 4, 2026
Survive the Minute is built data-minimal by design. We collect the least we can to run a daily game and a waitlist, and we hold ourselves to the ceiling described here. This policy covers the website and the app.
What we collect
- Waitlist email — only if you enter it, used to send you your number and launch updates.
- An anonymous player ID — a random identifier for your game account. It is not your name.
- Sign in with Apple ID — optional, only if you choose to sign in; we receive an opaque Apple identifier, not your Apple password.
- Device push token — only if you turn on notifications, so we can remind you the Minute is about to begin.
- Gameplay input traces — the timing of your taps during a Minute. These make the game deterministic and verifiable. They describe play, not you.
- Coarse region — a country or region derived from your connection headers. Never GPS, never precise location.
- Crash and analytics events — anonymous product and stability data so we can fix problems.
What we never collect
- No contacts, no address book.
- No location services, no GPS.
- No tracking across other apps or websites. There is no Ask App Not to Track prompt because we do not track you.
How we use it
We use this data to run the daily Minute, keep scores honest, send the emails and reminders you asked for, and keep the game stable. We do not sell your data. We do not build advertising profiles about you.
Cookies and analytics
The website uses privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics — no advertising cookies, no consent banner needed. Crash reporting runs with IP scrubbing on.
Who processes data for us
We use a small set of service providers strictly to operate the game: hosting and database (Supabase), coordination and rate limits (Upstash), event logs (Axiom), product analytics (PostHog), crash reporting (Sentry), email delivery (Resend), and web hosting (Cloudflare). Each only receives what it needs to do its job.
Your rights
You can ask us to show you the data tied to your account, correct it, or delete it — including removing your email from the waitlist. Depending on where you live, you may have rights under the GDPR or the CCPA; we honor those requests regardless of where you are.
Children
Survive the Minute is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. Ads, when present, are configured family-safe.
Changes
If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, tell you in the app.
