Privacy Policy

Oddshot · Last updated 12 November 2026

This policy explains what Oddshot stores when you play it as a Discord Activity, and why. We keep it to what the game needs to work.

What we store

• Your Discord user ID and display name. We get these from Discord when you allow the game to sign you in (the identify permission).
• The IDs of the Discord servers you open the game from. They decide which leaderboard you appear on.
• Only if you say yes to "show your results in all your servers?": the IDs of the Discord servers you're a member of, which Discord shares with the guilds permission when you allow it. We use them only to show your daily and round results on the leaderboards (and in the daily results message) of those servers that use Oddshot. We don't store server names, icons or anything else. Say no in the game (tap "RESULTS" / "SERVERS" on the start screen) and we delete the list.
• Your game results: the answer you locked in for each question, its points, and when you played. Practice replays are not saved.
• When you play: when you first and last opened the game, and which days you played in the last 120 days. We store the same for each Discord server the game is opened from. We use this to see how the game is doing, for example how many people come back.
• Your look and progress: the clothes and bow you've picked in STYLE, what you've unlocked, and how many multiplayer games you've won.
• Multiplayer: while a match is going on, the lobby (who is in it, their answers and points) is kept in the server's memory. A copy of a match in progress is saved for a short time so the match can continue if the server restarts; it is replaced as the match goes on and isn't used for anything else. After a match we save a short record: when it was played, the game mode and settings, the ID of the Discord server it was played in, and the user IDs of the players (up to 16). Answers and chat are not saved. We use it to count how much each mode is played, per server and per player.
• Global highscore name: to show the global highscore without your Discord name, you get a player number the first time you appear there (shown as "PLAYER 123"). If you pick an alias of your own, we store it, when you last changed it (to limit changes to 5 a day) and whether you chose to hide yourself from the global highscore.
• Reports you send: if you flag a question, we store the report type, what you wrote, the answer you gave, the time, and your user ID and display name, so we can follow up and avoid duplicates. We keep the latest 100 open reports per question. When we have dealt with a report, we keep a short record of it (the question, the report type and text, your display name, when it was handled and whether we thanked you), for the latest 500 handled reports, and the Oddshot bot may send you a one-time thank-you direct message on Discord. We don't send you anything else that way.
• Guesses the game didn't accept: the text of a guess that was rejected, how many times it was tried, and a shortened form of the player ID (the last 6 digits, up to 9 per guess) to count how many different players tried it. Your name isn't stored with it. We use this to find real answers that are missing from the lists, and keep at most 250 different guesses per question. Please don't type personal information as an answer.
• Reports about names: if you report another player's global highscore alias, we store your user ID, the alias you reported and the time with that player, so we can look at it. The reported player doesn't see who reported them.
• Daily reminder (only if a server manager turns it on): for that Discord server, the channel the reminder is posted in, the time of day, and the user ID of the manager who turned it on. To check that you manage the server, we ask Discord for your permissions there at that moment; we don't store them.
• Error reports: if the game crashes on your device, it sends the error message, where in the code it happened, which screen you were on and your browser type. No user ID is stored with it. We keep the latest 100 different errors.
• Result pictures: if you press POST PICTURE, the picture of your score is uploaded to Discord with your own account so you can post it. We don't keep the picture, and we don't keep the Discord token used to upload it.
• Codes: if you redeem an unlock code, which code you used.
• A session token so the game knows it's you between questions. It expires after 60 days.
• What you've bought. If you buy something in the game, we ask Discord which Oddshot products your account owns, so we can unlock them. We never see your card or payment details; Discord handles the payment.
• Anonymous answer counts (how many people gave a certain answer) to tune how rare each answer is.

We don't store your email, messages, voice, friends list or payment details. We don't use ads or trackers, and we don't sell or share your data with advertisers.

Why we use it

To run the game: sign you in, save your score, prevent more than one attempt per round, run multiplayer matches, unlock what you've earned or bought, and show leaderboards to players on the same Discord server. The legal basis for this is that it is needed to provide the game you chose to play.

To improve the game: play statistics, reports and rejected guesses help us fix unclear questions and add missing answers. The legal basis for this is our legitimate interest in making the game work well. We only use these numbers inside the developer team and never to profile you or for advertising.

Who can see it

Players on the same Discord server can see your display name and scores on that server's leaderboard, and your daily score in that server's daily results message. On the global highscore, every Oddshot player can see your daily score, the ring each shot hit and your rank, but only under your player number or the alias you chose: never your Discord name, your servers or your answers. You can hide yourself from the global highscore at any time with HIDE ME (you then only see yourself there). In multiplayer, everyone in the same match (the same Discord Activity) sees your name, your archer's look, your answers and your points. Your look is also visible to other players on the multiplayer podium. Reports (open and handled) and rejected guesses are only seen by the developer. The game runs on Google Cloud (region europe-north1, Finland), which processes the data on our behalf. Discord also handles your account under Discord's Privacy Policy.

How long we keep it

• Results, your look, unlocks, player number and alias: while the game is running, so leaderboards and unlocks stay correct. Change your alias back to your player number to remove it.
• Multiplayer records: the latest 2,000 matches.
• Which days you played: the last 120 days.
• Sign-in sessions: 60 days.
• Multiplayer lobbies: only during the match.
• Backups: one copy of the game's data per day, for 14 days, so we can restore it if something breaks. Data you ask us to delete disappears from the backups within about three weeks (14 days of backups, plus a 7-day safety period of our storage provider).
• Error reports: the latest 100. Daily reminder settings: until a server manager turns the reminder off.
• Server logs: our hosting provider (Google Cloud) keeps standard request logs, which can include your IP address and, when you redeem an unlock code, your display name, for a limited time (by default about 30 days).
• Reports: the latest 100 open reports per question, and the latest 500 handled reports. Rejected guesses: at most 250 per question, the least repeated are removed first.

You can ask us to delete your data at any time.
