The short version: we keep what BOING needs to work and keep you safe. We don't sell your data. Other members never see your email or your birth year. You can delete your account yourself, or ask us to if you lost your wallet.
What we keep
- Your email. To send you sign-in codes and important messages about your account.
- Your birth year. Only to keep BOING safe: it is for people 14 and up.
- Your birthday, if you add it. So your frog buddy can celebrate with you. Your age is never shown.
- What you post and make. Your username, character, posts, comments, photos, messages, groups, scores and level.
- Your planner, if you use it. Your goals, tasks and any calendar you connect.
- Your wallet address, if you link one. You don't need a wallet. Wallet addresses are public on Solana.
We don't ask for your gender, your address or your real name.
Why we keep it
- To sign you in and run the things you use: games, friends, groups, the planner and the rest.
- To keep people safe: checking photos, handling reports and stopping spam.
We don't sell your data, and ads on BOING aren't chosen from your data.
Who sees it
- Other members see what you choose to share: your username, character, bio and, unless your profile is private, your posts and scores.
- Friends see a cake next to your name on your birthday, only if you switch that on.
- Moderators see what is reported, to deal with it. Private messages stay private unless someone reports them.
- Services that run BOING for us: Cloudflare (hosting and storage), Resend (it gets your email address, to send your codes) and AI services (for Boing the coach, AI Study and checking photos). They only get what they need to do that job.
How to delete it
- Your whole account, if you only use email: go to Email, wallet and birthday and press Delete my account. Your posts, messages, character and scores are removed.
- Your whole account, if it has a wallet: sign in with that wallet first, then do the same. An email code isn't enough on these accounts.
- If you lost your wallet: write to us. We'll check it's your account and delete it for you.
- Just your planner: "Delete all my planner data" is in the planner.
- A post or a photo: open its menu and delete it.
Under 18?
BOING is for people 14 and up. Everything is free, so you never need to buy anything. Keep your real name and school to yourself, and talk to a parent if something feels wrong.
