Privacy Policy
Last updated: 4 March 2026
Gyro.Games ("we", "us", or "our") operates the gyro.games website. This page informs you about the types of data we process when you use our service, the purposes for which that data is used, and the third-party services involved.
We are committed to keeping your experience as private as possible. Gyro.Games does not require user accounts, does not use cookies for tracking, and does not run any analytics or advertising services.
Personal Data We Process
Gyro.Games is designed to minimise data collection. We do not collect or store:
- Names, email addresses, or other personal identifiers
- User accounts or login credentials
- Cookies for tracking or analytics
- Device sensor data beyond the active browser session
When you visit or play on Gyro.Games, certain technical data may be processed automatically by us or by the third-party services listed below. This typically includes:
- Usage Data — information your browser sends automatically, such as IP address, browser type and version, pages visited, time and date of access, time spent on pages, and other diagnostic data.
- Device motion/orientation data — gyroscope and accelerometer readings streamed in real time from your phone to the game session via WebSocket. This data is ephemeral and is never stored on our servers.
Third-Party Services
The following third-party services are used by Gyro.Games. Each service may process certain data as described below. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies.

Displaying Content from External Platforms
Personal Data processed: Usage Data (IP address)

Privacy policy: goqr.me/privacy-policy
Data Retention
Gyro.Games does not maintain any user database. Game session data (room IDs, player connections, gyroscope readings) exists only in server memory for the duration of the session and is discarded when players disconnect or the room expires.
Server access logs may be retained for a limited period for debugging and security purposes, after which they are deleted.
Your Rights
Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable data protection laws, you have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Data portability
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Since we do not collect or store personal data beyond ephemeral server logs, in most cases there is no personal data to retrieve, correct, or delete. If you have questions or wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.
Information for Users Outside the EU
Regardless of your location, we apply the same privacy standards to all users. Our servers are located in the EU (Oracle Cloud), and Cloudflare may route traffic through global edge nodes. By using Gyro.Games, you acknowledge that your data may be processed in these locations.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
