Facedown · last updated 1 September 2026
Facedown does not ask who you are, and there is nothing to sign up for.
A display name. You type it on the first screen. It is sent to the other people at your table so they can see whose turn it is. It is never verified, never checked against anything, and not kept after the table closes. Make one up if you like.
A four-character room code. Made up on the spot when somebody starts a table, and meaningless once that table is closed.
That is the entire list. No email address, no phone number, no account, no password, no contacts, no location, no photos, no microphone, no camera.
While a table is open, your display name and your moves are sent to the other players through Supabase Realtime, a service that passes messages between phones. The app writes nothing to a database and stores nothing on a server: when everybody leaves the table, nothing about that game remains.
When the app starts it also asks Expo's update service whether newer app code is available. That request carries the technical information any web request carries, including your IP address. It is not used to identify you, and we do not receive it.
Your settings — the card back you chose, how your cards are arranged, whether sound and vibration are on — are saved on your own device and are never sent anywhere. Nobody else at the table can see them.
The game is suitable for all ages and collects no personal information from anybody, including children.
If this policy ever changes, the date at the top changes with it.
