1. What this covers
This policy covers the Go N Stop! app for iPhone and this website, gonstop.com. “We” means the people who make Go N Stop!. Go N Stop! is only for people aged 13 or over.
2. What we keep, and why
| What | Details | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Your sign-in | You sign in with Sign in with Apple. Apple gives us an identifier for you that is used only for this app, and a token that lets us disconnect the app from your Apple account when you delete it. We never see your Apple password. We do not ask for your name or your email address. | To know that you are you. |
| Your profile | The handle you choose, your avatar, your language and your settings. | To show you to the people you play with. |
| Your games | The tables you sit at, the rounds you play and their results, the groups of people you have played with and each group’s records. | To run the game and to show history and records. |
| Your coins | Your balance and a record of every change to it: rounds, gifts, purchases, free coins and decks bought. | To keep balances correct and to sort out disputes. |
| Purchases | What Apple tells us about an In-App Purchase: its transaction number, what was bought and when. We never see your card or your billing details. | To credit your coins once, and to handle refunds. |
| Friends and blocks | Who your friends are, the requests you have sent or received, and who you have blocked. | To make invites, gifts and blocking work. |
| Chat | The messages and stickers sent at a table. They are kept with the table and deleted when the table closes. If a message is reported, a copy of it and of a few messages around it is kept with the report. | To show the conversation to the table, and to review reports. |
| Reports | Reports you make and reports made about you, with what was decided. | To keep players safe. |
| Technical records | When you were last active, the app version, and the ordinary records a server keeps of the requests it receives, which include an IP address. | To show who is online, to fix problems and to stop abuse. |

We do not collect your contacts, your location, your photos or your microphone, and the app contains no advertising or tracking code.
3. This website
- No cookies, no analytics, no trackers. The fonts and images are served from this site, so your browser does not contact anyone else to show a page.
- Your choice of language is saved in your browser’s own storage, on your device, so the site remembers it. It is not sent to us.
- When you open an invite link (gonstop.com/j/ and a code), the page asks our server about that table and shows the game type, the stake, how many seats are taken and the host’s handle.
- Like any website, our servers record the requests they receive, including the IP address, the page and the browser type.
4. What other people can see
- Your handle and avatar: the people at your table, your friends, people who search for your handle, and anyone who opens an invite link you host.
- Whether you are online: your friends.
- Your chat messages: the people at that table.
- Your results: the people in the groups you have played in.
5. How we use it
To run the game; to keep scores and coins right; to prevent cheating and abuse; to review reports and enforce our Terms of Use; to answer you when you write; to count, in total and not person by person, how the game is used; and to meet our legal duties. We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not sell it or share it for advertising.
6. Who we share it with
- Google Cloud stores and processes the data for us.
- Apple provides sign-in and takes payment for In-App Purchases. Apple’s own privacy policy covers what Apple does.
- People who work with us to run the game and review reports, under a duty to keep it confidential.
- The authorities, when the law requires it, or when it is needed to protect someone’s safety. This includes reporting sexual content involving minors.
- A new owner, if Go N Stop! is ever sold or merged. This policy would still apply to your information.
7. Where it is kept
On Google Cloud, in data centers in the United States. If you play from another country, your information is sent to and kept in the United States. It is encrypted on its way between your phone and our servers.
8. How long we keep it
- Your account, for as long as it exists.
- Chat, until the table it belongs to closes, unless it was reported.
- Server request records, for a limited time, usually about 30 days.
- Reports, and records of purchases and coin movements, for as long as we need them for safety, accounting and legal reasons.
9. Deleting your account
In the app, go to Me, then Delete account. This removes your profile, your handle, your sign-in, your friends list, your block list and your pending invites, and it disconnects the app from your Apple account. It cannot be undone.
Some records stay, because they belong to other people’s histories too or because we must keep them: finished rounds, group totals and coin records. They keep an internal account number, but your handle is replaced with “deleted player”.
If you cannot use the app, write to support@gonstop.com and we will help.
10. Your choices and rights
- You can change your handle, avatar, language and settings in the app.
- You can block any player, and soften the swearing you see.
- You can ask us for a copy of your information, or ask us to correct or delete it, by writing to support@gonstop.com. Depending on where you live, the law may give you further rights; we will honour them.
11. Children
Go N Stop! is not for children under 13. We do not knowingly keep information about anyone under 13. If you believe someone under 13 is playing, tell us and we will close the account and delete what it held.
12. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we change the date at the top of this page, and we tell you in the app if the change is an important one.
