What we keep

Your first name, as you type it, so your partner sees who they are playing with.

Your location, only if you tap "Use my location". It is used to build the deck of nearby places. Your partner only ever sees it rounded to about a kilometer, and distances to places are shown to the nearest half mile.

Your swipes, so we can find a match. Your partner never sees what you swiped, only the places you both liked (and, when the deck runs out, places one of you liked, without saying who).

All of this lives in the server's memory for the game only. A game is deleted about 3 hours after its last activity (about 20 minutes if your partner never joins), or when the server restarts. To stop abuse, the server also keeps your network's IP address in memory while your game is open and for a few minutes after requests, to rate-limit it; it is never written to disk. We do not keep accounts, and we do not sell or share any of it.

On your phone

The app stores your name and your current game in your browser's local storage, so a refresh does not lose your place. Clearing your browser data removes it. We do not set cookies.

Match counts

When a game ends in a match, we add one to that place's count ("Picked by 25 couples"). We store only the time and the place. One network counts a given place at most once a day; that check uses your network's IP address in memory only.

Booking and delivery links

When you tap "Book a table" or "Get delivery" we count the click: the time, which link, and which place. No IP address and nothing about you. Then you go to OpenTable or DoorDash, whose own privacy policies apply from there.

Others who see your visit

The site runs on Hostinger. Like any web host, its servers keep standard access logs (including IP addresses) for security and operations.

Our fonts load from Google Fonts, so your browser asks Google's servers for them, which means Google sees your IP address. Google's privacy policy covers that request.

Ads

There are no ads today. If we add them, this page will say so first, including which ad partner is used and how to opt out of personalized ads.
