Privacy

Last updated October 24, 2026

Short version: we collect almost nothing. We never sell your information.

What this site collects

Your email, only if you sign up. The site has a box to get the daily round by email. When it is on, you can type in your email. We then save your email address and the date you signed up. We keep it in our database (Supabase). We use it only to send you the daily round.

Nothing else. The site has no ads, no tracking tools, and no visitor counters. Our site's code sets no cookies.

What stays on your phone

When you play the daily round, your score is saved in your own browser. So is your text size choice. Neither is sent to us. You can clear it by clearing your browser's site data.

Our web host

The site is hosted by Cloudflare. Cloudflare handles the traffic to the site, like any web host. It may keep basic records, such as visit times and browser types. We don't use those records to track you.

YouTube API Services

Scam or Not uses YouTube API Services. That is how our system posts our videos to YouTube and reads our own channel's numbers.

When you watch our videos on YouTube, you agree to the YouTube Terms of Service. The Google Privacy Policy explains how Google uses data.

What YouTube data we use. Only data about our own Scam or Not channel. Our system does three things with it:

It posts our own videos to our channel.
It checks the privacy setting of the videos it posted.
It reads stats for our own videos. That means views, how much people watch, and how many stay past the start.

What we never see. Your YouTube account, your name, your watch history or your comments. We can't tell who watched.

What we keep. The ID, title and privacy setting of each video we posted. We keep the stats for each video for 30 days at most, then delete them. From those stats we keep one score per opening-line style. That score holds no personal data.

Who can turn it off. Only the owner of the Scam or Not channel signs in to YouTube for our system. The owner can remove its access at any time on Google's security settings page. Then our system can no longer post or read stats.

Getting data deleted. Email us and we will delete stored YouTube data within 30 days.

We never sell or share it

We don't sell your information. We don't rent it or trade it. We don't give it to advertisers.

How to get removed

Email [email protected] and ask us to delete your email address. We will delete it within 30 days and tell you when it's done.

Kids

This site and our videos are not made for children under 13. We don't knowingly collect anything from them. If you think a child signed up, email us and we will delete it.

We never contact you first

This channel never texts you, calls you, or asks for money. If someone says they are us and asks for money, it's a scam.

Changes

If we change how we use information, we will first update this page. We will also change the date at the top.
