About This Tool
Privacy Policy & Terms of Use
What Is This?
This is a free scrum voting tool I built as a hobby project to help agile teams with their planning poker sessions. It's designed to be simple, fast, and privacy-friendly.
How It Works
Privacy & Data
I take privacy seriously, even for hobby projects. Here's exactly what happens with your data:
What Gets Collected
- •Your votes - Temporarily stored in memory during the active session only
- •Display name - If you choose to set one for your session
- •Session room code - To connect you with your team
- •Technical stuff - Your IP address is briefly seen by the hosting service
What Doesn't Get Collected
- ❌ No user accounts or login data
- ❌ No cookies or tracking
- ❌ No analytics or advertising
- ❌ No voting history
- ❌ No permanent storage of any session data
Where Your Data Goes
- •Real-time server - Handles the real-time communication between session participants using Socket.IO. Your session data is kept in server memory temporarily during active sessions.
- •Hosting - The site and server are hosted together, which may collect standard server logs (like IP addresses and access times)
When Your Data Disappears
- •Immediately when you close the session
- •Automatically after session timeout due to inactivity
- •When the last person leaves the room
Basically, your data lives only as long as your voting session and then it's gone forever.
Terms of Use (The Friendly Version)
Please use this tool responsibly:
- ✅ Use it for legitimate scrum/agile voting
- ✅ Be respectful in session names and display names
- ❌ Don't try to hack or abuse the system
- ❌ Don't use it for anything illegal or harmful
This is a hobby project, which means:
- •It's provided free of charge
- •There's no warranty or guarantee it'll work perfectly
- •It might have bugs or go down occasionally
- •I might make changes, updates, or even shut it down someday
- •Use it at your own risk for non-critical purposes
If something breaks:
I'll do my best to keep things running smoothly, but I can't promise 100% uptime. This isn't a commercial service with SLAs. If your company needs guaranteed reliability, consider a commercial planning poker tool.
Your Rights
Even though this is a hobby project, you have rights regarding your data:
- •Want your data deleted? Just close your session. It's automatically deleted.
- •Want to know what data I have? I don't store anything beyond active sessions.
- •Have concerns about privacy? Contact me and I'll address them.
If you're in the EU, you have additional rights under GDPR, including the right to file a complaint with your data protection authority if you believe your data is being misused.
Security
I've built this with reasonable security practices:
- •Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS)
- •No passwords or sensitive information is stored
- •Session codes should be kept private (treat them like temporary passwords)
That said, this is a hobby project, not a bank. Don't put sensitive business secrets in your session names.
Children
This tool isn't designed for kids. If you're under 13 (or 16 in the EU), please get a parent's permission before using it.
Changes & Updates
I might update this page or how the tool works from time to time. If I make major privacy-related changes, I'll update the "Last Updated" date below.
