Privacy Policy
Effective date: September 30, 2026
The short version: STACKD does not collect, sell or share your personal data. We run no servers, analytics, advertising or tracking. Everything you enter stays on your device.
What STACKD stores
Games, player names, optional player photos, chip sets, presets, house rules, notes and settings are stored locally on your iPhone. They are not sent to us. They are included in your device backups according to your iPhone's settings.
Sharing a table with nearby phones
When a host chooses to share a table, STACKD uses Apple's Multipeer Connectivity to connect phones at the same location directly, over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The connection is encrypted and no internet server is involved. Guests receive the game name, blinds, player names and their own buy-ins and results. They do not receive other players' financial details. Guests can send requests (for example, a rebuy) that the host approves or declines.
Invite links
If you share an invite link or QR code, it contains basic game details you chose (game name, host name, time, location text, buy-in and blinds) so the recipient can see the invitation. You decide who receives it.
Invite links open a small web page hosted on GitHub Pages that shows the table code and a link to the App Store. The page doesn't store or collect anything, but GitHub, like any web host, may keep standard server logs of requests.
Permissions
- Camera: used only when you choose to scan a table's QR code. Images are not saved or transmitted.
- Local Network: used only to connect phones at the same table when a table is shared.
- Photos: used only when you choose a profile or player photo. STACKD reads only the photo you pick.
- Notifications (optional): local reminders and blind-level alerts generated on your device.
Money
STACKD never processes payments or connects to financial accounts. Amounts and payment labels are records you enter.
Children
STACKD is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect information from anyone.
Your control
You can export or permanently delete all STACKD data anytime in Profile & Settings → Data. Deleting the app also removes its data from your device.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the effective date. If STACKD ever adds an optional online feature, such as cloud backup, this policy will explain it before it's turned on.
