Privacy

Last updated November 11, 2026. This page describes what the game actually does today.

Playing without an account

When you open the site, Firebase (Google) gives your browser an anonymous ID so the game server can check that each bid comes from the right player. It isn't linked to your name or email.
The nickname you type, your bids and your picks are stored in the room. Anyone with the room code can view that room.
Room chat messages are stored in the room with the nickname of the player who sent them, so anyone with the room code can read them. Don't share anything private in chat.
Rooms are deleted automatically after 7 days without play.

When you sign in, results you played as a guest in this browser move to your account.
If you sign in, we store your first name, profile photo link and your finishes in online drafts that were scored by verified data or AI. Only you can read your record.
Your email address is shown to you on your account screen but isn't stored in our database.

Your browser keeps your last nickname, the last room you joined, whether you've seen the intro, and one-screen and practice games in progress. These never leave your device.

Daily Draft and challenge results (your picks, score and the nickname you entered) are stored on our server. People who open the same challenge link can see the nicknames and scores of everyone who played it. Daily Draft results are never listed publicly.
Community packs you make are private until you share a link or an admin approves them for public listing. Reports you send are reviewed by Bidwit admins.

When you use "Score with AI" or let the AI write a list, the category, metric and item names are sent to Google's Gemini API. Nicknames are not sent. Google's free tier may use these prompts to improve its products.

Analytics: we use Umami, which doesn't use cookies. It records which screen you're on (home, room, practice, daily) and gameplay events like "game started", with basic details such as player count and whether you've visited before. It never receives nicknames, room codes, item names, scores or full page addresses.
Ads are currently off. If they're turned on, this page will be updated first, and visitors in regions that require it will be asked for consent before any ad cookies are used.

Budgets and bids are game dollars with no cash value. Nothing can be bought, sold or withdrawn.
