Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
Noshdip is operated by WP North Entertainment Group Ltd., an Ontario, Canada company. Our Privacy Officer is responsible for this policy and can be reached at info@noshdip.com. Questions, requests and complaints about privacy go to that address.
2. What we collect
- From Google sign-in: your email address, which identifies your account. Google also sends us your name and basic profile; we do not store them. We never receive your Google password, contacts or anything else in your Google account.
- From your play: your answers to dish cards, your predictions of how others answered, your price guesses, how long each answer took, dishes you marked as cravings, taps on “Get this”, your points and rating, the handle you choose, and your play-money trades and holdings.
- One cookie: a sign-in cookie that keeps you signed in for up to 30 days. We use no advertising cookies and no third-party trackers.
3. Why we collect it
- To produce pricing insights that we provide to businesses. We combine many players’ answers into statistics, such as the share of players who would order a dish at a given price. Restaurants and food brands may pay us for these combined results. This is a main purpose of Noshdip, and we want you to know it before you play.
- To run the game: saving your progress, showing rankings, and showing a portfolio if you choose to share it.
- To keep results honest, for example by leaving out answers given too quickly to be genuine.
- To run weekly prize contests. If you win, we use the email address you sign in with to tell you and to send your prize, and we may show your handle as a winner. The Prize Rules explain how contests work.
By signing in and accepting this policy you consent to these uses. You can withdraw consent at any time by deleting your account (section 8).
4. What we share, and what we never share
- Businesses receive combined, anonymous results only. We do not give restaurants, brands or advertisers your name, your email address, your handle or your individual answers.
- How we keep results anonymous. We report results only for groups of players large enough that no individual can reasonably be identified. We never report a result that combines fewer than 20 players. We do not attempt to re-identify anyone from combined results, and we require any business that receives them to agree not to try.
- Other players see your handle, points and rating, and your play-money portfolio only if you switch sharing on. They never see your email address.
- Service providers. Cloudflare hosts the site and stores the data, and Google provides sign-in. They handle data on our behalf and under their own security commitments.
- Legal reasons. We may disclose information if the law requires it.
Information from Google. We use what Google sends us only to sign you in and operate your account. We do not sell it, and it is not part of the statistics we provide to businesses. Those statistics come only from your game play.
5. Where your information is kept
Our service providers may store and process information in Canada, the United States and other countries, where it is subject to the laws of those countries.
6. How long we keep it
We keep your account information for as long as your account exists. When you delete your account, your account record, answers, portfolio and handle are deleted. Combined statistics that no longer identify anyone may be kept.
7. How we protect it
Access to the site and its data is restricted, connections are encrypted, and sign-in is handled by Google so we never hold a password for you. No system is perfectly secure. If a breach creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify affected players and the regulators as the law requires.
8. Your choices and rights
- In the Account tab you can change your handle, switch portfolio sharing on or off, download a copy of your data, sign out, and delete your account. Deletion is immediate and permanent.
- By email you can ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or raise a concern: info@noshdip.com.
- If you are not satisfied with our answer, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, or in Quebec the Commission d’accès à l’information.
9. Adults only
Noshdip is for adults and is not directed to children. You must be at least 18 years old to play. If we learn that we hold information from anyone under 18, we will delete it.
10. United States residents
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are used in U.S. state privacy laws. The results we provide to businesses are aggregate information that is not linked to any individual or household.
11. Changes
If we change this policy in a meaningful way, we will change the date at the top and ask you to review it in the game before you continue playing.
