Privacy policy

Last updated: 10 September 2026

Board Game Bank is a money tracker for board games. This page explains what the app and the service at boardgamebank.com store, why, and how to get rid of it. We keep it short because we keep little.

Who is responsible

The service is operated by LMSCloud Limited, a company registered in Ireland under number 791062, The Black Church, St. Mary's Place, Dublin 7, D07 P4AX, Ireland. We are the controller of the data described here. Contact: support@boardgamebank.com.

Using the app without an account

You can use the app without signing in. Games you run this way are stored only on your device. Nothing is sent to us. Deleting the app deletes them. Players who join a shared game with a code need no account either; their phone only reads that game.

What we store when you sign in

• Account: your email address. With a Google, Apple or Facebook login, also the name and profile picture the provider shares with us; we never receive your password from them. A display name you set yourself in the app. Accounts are managed by Amazon Cognito.
• Games: the game name, rules, player names, colours and icons as you entered them, balances, and the transaction log with timestamps. Games you ran offline are uploaded when you sign in.
• Codes: random codes that let other players follow a game. Anyone with a code can read that game's balances and log until the game is deleted or the code is replaced.
• Technical logs: request logs on our servers (time, path, response code, error messages) kept for a short period to keep the service working.

Player names are whatever the moderator typed. Please use first names or nicknames and tell your fellow players that the game is being shared.

Why, and on what basis

We process this data to provide the service you asked for: keeping your games, sharing them with the players you invite, and letting you log in (performance of a contract). Technical logs serve our legitimate interest in keeping the service secure and working.

What we do not do

• No advertising, no ad networks, no tracking pixels, no analytics SDKs. This website sets no cookies.
• We do not sell or share your data with third parties, except the infrastructure providers below.
• We do not read your contacts, location or photos. The camera is used only while you scan a QR code, and images are not stored.

Where the data lives

On Amazon Web Services in the European Union (Ireland region); Amazon acts as our processor, and login pages are served through Amazon's content delivery network. The emails we send you (one-time links to erase your data) go out through Resend, with our account's servers in the European Union (Ireland).

How long we keep it

• Active games: until you delete them.
• Finished games: deleted automatically 90 days after they were finished, unless you delete them earlier.
• Your account: until you erase it. See Delete account.
• Technical logs: a few weeks.

Your rights

You can see all your data in the app and correct player names and rules at any time. You can delete any game, or erase your whole account, from the app (Preferences → Request erasure of my personal data). If you can no longer log in, request a one-time erasure link on the Delete account page. Erasure is immediate and cannot be undone. For anything else, including a copy of your data, write to us. If you are not happy with how we handled your data, write to us first; you can also complain to Ireland's Data Protection Commission or to your local data protection authority.

Children

The app is meant for families and friends playing together. Accounts are for adults. A child can follow a game with a code without an account; that shows only the game data the moderator entered.

Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we will say so in the app and on this page, with a new date at the top.
