Bestof
Privacy Policy
Overview
Bestof (“the App”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how LAND MK 1, LLC handles information when you use Bestof to host, join, rank, and reveal group votes.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
- We do not require an account to use Bestof.
- We do not collect, sell, or share personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, phone number, precise location, or contacts.
- We do not track your activity across other apps or websites.
- We do not use advertising identifiers for cross-app tracking.
2. Information Processed on Your Device
Vote titles, choices, rankings, nicknames, avatars, and vote history are processed on your device. Local votes are hosted by one participant’s phone, and nearby devices connect directly over the local network when possible. We do not receive or store those local vote contents on our servers.
3. Relay Voting
If a host enables remote participants, Bestof uses our relay service at
r.bestof.app so people on different networks can join the same active
vote. The relay is a transport service: it forwards vote packets between the host
and participants and issues the shareable join link for that active vote.
The relay may process temporary technical information such as a vote identifier, connection identifiers, a host reconnect token, timing information, and active vote packets needed to deliver the session. It is not designed as long-term storage for ballots or vote history. Relay data for a live vote expires when the vote ends or times out. For a vote that stays open for people to vote later, the relay holds the vote and its ballots so they can be counted, and deletes them 7 days after voting closes.
4. Watch Links
The host of an internet vote can choose to share a watch link
(bestof.app/watch/…): a web page where anyone with the link can follow
the vote and its results reveal, without the app. A watch link exists only if the
host creates one; nothing is shared this way otherwise.
The watch page shows the vote’s title and choices, how many people have joined and voted, emoji reactions, and the results. It does not show nicknames, avatars, individual ballots, or anything else that identifies who took part: those are removed before any vote information reaches the watch page. Anyone the link is passed on to can see the page, so hosts should share it with that in mind.
Watch link data is deleted 24 hours after the vote ends, and the link then shows that the vote has ended. Visiting a watch page is handled like any other visit to our website (see Website below), and watch pages do not use analytics.
5. Website
When you visit bestof.app, our hosting provider may process ordinary request information such as IP address, browser type, requested page, and timestamps to deliver the website and keep it secure. Bestof’s website does not create an account for you or sell personal information.
We use PostHog on the website to understand basic usage, such as page views and page leaves. We do not enable session recording or automatic click/form capture on the website.
6. Children’s Privacy
Because Bestof does not require accounts or collect personal information from users, it is suitable for users of all ages, including children under 13, in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and provide the new version on our website or App Store listing.
