Pubby McPubQuiz is a mobile trivia game. This policy explains how information is used when you play alone or join a team.
1. Who operates the game?
Pubby McPubQuiz is published as an Artemis Games title. For privacy enquiries, please contact the publisher using the contact form here.
2. Information we use
Solo questions are bundled with the app. Team mode uses Google Firebase Authentication (anonymous sign-in) and Cloud Firestore to coordinate multiplayer rooms. In team mode, information may include:
- An automatically generated anonymous Firebase user identifier.
- The team name, player display names, membership identifiers and six-character room code.
- Round configuration, quiz progress, answer votes, challenges and scores.
- Technical and connection information handled by Firebase to operate the service.
The game does not ask you to supply your legal name, telephone number, address or precise location to play. Please do not use sensitive information as a display name or team name.
3. How we use it
We use team data to create and join rooms, synchronise quiz questions and votes, determine captain controls, show results, and let members leave or close rooms. We process this information to provide the multiplayer service you request.
4. Who can see it?
Other players in your room can see its team and member names and shared quiz state. Anyone who knows a valid team code may be able to request access to that room. Google Firebase acts as a technical service provider. Its handling of service data is governed by its applicable privacy and service terms.
5. How long is information kept?
When a captain successfully ends a team room, the app requests deletion of the room and its current-round document from Firestore. Leaving a room removes a member's membership and may remove their pending vote. Completed quiz results may remain while the room exists. Anonymous Firebase accounts and service logs may have different retention periods. To request deletion of information associated with your team session or anonymous identifier, use our contact form with the relevant room code and any information needed to locate the record. We will verify the request and explain what we can delete. Exact backend retention settings are being verified before release.
6. Security
The app uses Firebase Authentication and Firestore for team features. We take reasonable steps to protect information, but no internet service can promise absolute security.
7. Your choices and rights
You can play solo without creating a team. You can leave a team; captains can end rooms. Depending on applicable law, you may also have rights to access, correct or delete personal information and to object to certain processing. Contact the publisher using the contact form to make a request.
8. Children
The game does not require a real name or contact details to play. If a child uses online team features, a parent or guardian should supervise the display name they choose and the rooms they join. Online team features are not intended for children to use without appropriate adult supervision. The publisher is reviewing age-related safeguards before release.
9. This website
This Pubby information site is static. Its pages do not contain an analytics script, advertising trackers or a sign-in form. The hosting provider may process ordinary server access logs when you visit.
10. Updates
We may update this policy when the game or its services change. The effective date at the top will be revised when we do.
