Privacy Policy — Boop.io

Last updated: September 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Boop Games BV (“Boop Games”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) processes personal data when you play Boop.io (“the Game”) on Poki.

This Privacy Policy covers the Game and its multiplayer services. The Game is available through Poki. Poki B.V. operates the Poki platform and has its own privacy practices, which are governed by the Poki Privacy Statement.

1. Who We Are

Boop.io is developed and operated by:

Boop Games BV
Belgium
Email: info@boopgames.be

Boop Games BV is the data controller for the personal data described in this Privacy Policy where we determine how and why that data is processed.

2. Our Approach to Privacy

We designed Boop.io to process as little personal data as reasonably necessary to provide its multiplayer functionality.

You do not need to create an account with Boop Games, provide an email address, or provide your real name to play.

Our multiplayer services do not use advertising trackers or analytics technologies of their own.

We do not sell personal data and do not use the personal data described in this Privacy Policy for marketing.

3. Information We Process

3.1 IP Address and Connection Information

When you use Boop.io’s multiplayer features, your browser connects to our multiplayer server.

Like other internet services, the server necessarily receives your IP address and certain basic technical connection information.

We process this information to:

Boop Games does not intentionally store your IP address in a persistent player database or use it to create a player profile.

Technical infrastructure used to operate the multiplayer server may temporarily process or retain connection information in operational or security logs.

Legal basis: our legitimate interests in providing, operating, securing, maintaining, and troubleshooting Boop.io’s multiplayer functionality (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

3.2 Player Display Name

Players are shown a display name during multiplayer matches.

If you are logged into Poki and Poki makes your Poki username available to the Game, Boop.io may use that username as your display name.

If no Poki username is available, the Game generates a random guest name.

Your display name is sent to the multiplayer server and may be visible to other players participating in the same match.

Boop Games does not intentionally retain your display name on its multiplayer servers after the relevant multiplayer session has ended.

Legal basis: processing is necessary to provide the multiplayer service requested by you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

3.3 Gameplay Information

While you participate in a multiplayer match, the multiplayer server processes information necessary to operate and synchronize the match.

This may include:

Some of this information is communicated to other players’ game clients where necessary for the multiplayer match to function.

Boop Games does not intentionally retain this gameplay information after the relevant multiplayer session ends.

Legal basis: processing is necessary to provide the multiplayer service requested by you (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

4. Information Stored on Your Device

Boop.io may store a generated guest display name in your browser’s local storage so that the same name can be used after a page refresh.

This information remains on your device until it is removed or replaced. Your display name is sent to the multiplayer server when you participate in a match.

You can remove locally stored information by clearing the site’s data through your browser.

Boop.io does not set cookies of its own.

Poki may separately use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies as part of operating the Poki platform. Poki’s use of those technologies is governed by Poki’s own privacy practices.

5. Multiplayer Infrastructure

Boop.io uses Colyseus technology to provide its real-time multiplayer functionality.

When you connect to a multiplayer match, the multiplayer infrastructure processes information necessary to establish and maintain the connection and synchronize the game between players.

This can include your IP address, display name, connection information, and gameplay information.

Any hosting or infrastructure provider used to run our multiplayer servers may also process technical information necessary to provide that infrastructure.

6. Poki

Boop.io is distributed through Poki B.V.

Poki operates the platform through which the Game is made available.

If you are logged into Poki, Poki may provide information such as your Poki username to the Game for use as your player display name.

Poki separately processes information when you use its platform. That processing is governed by Poki’s own privacy practices.

7. International Data Transfers

The infrastructure used to provide Boop.io may involve processing in countries outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA and applicable data protection law requires safeguards, we use or rely on an applicable legal transfer mechanism or appropriate safeguards.

8. How Long We Keep Information

Boop Games aims to retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Player display names and gameplay state processed by our multiplayer servers are intended to exist only for the relevant multiplayer session and are not intentionally stored by Boop Games afterward.

Boop Games does not maintain a persistent player database linking multiplayer activity to IP addresses.

Technical infrastructure providers may temporarily retain operational or security logs according to their own configurations and retention policies.

A generated guest name stored in your browser remains there until it is replaced or you clear the site’s local data.

9. Children

Boop.io is designed to process as little personal data as reasonably possible.

Players do not need to provide Boop Games with their real name, email address, phone number, or other contact information to play.

Boop.io does not provide free-text multiplayer chat through which players can send messages to each other.

We do not knowingly use children’s personal data for advertising, direct marketing, or profiling.

If you are a parent or guardian and have a question or concern regarding personal data processed through Boop.io, contact us at info@boopgames.be.

10. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal data.

We may share or otherwise make information available where necessary to:

During a multiplayer match, your player display name and gameplay information may also be communicated to other players’ game clients where necessary for the multiplayer match to function.

11. Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect personal data processed through Boop.io’s multiplayer services.

We seek to minimize the amount of personal data processed by our multiplayer infrastructure and limit processing to information reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, troubleshoot, and secure the service.

However, no internet service or method of electronic transmission can guarantee absolute security.

12. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

Boop Games does not use the personal data described in this Privacy Policy for profiling or automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects on players.

13. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live and applicable data protection law, you may have rights regarding your personal data.

Under the GDPR, these may include the right to:

Because Boop Games does not intentionally maintain persistent player accounts or a database linking multiplayer activity to individual players, we may not hold information that allows us to identify a particular player after a multiplayer session has ended.

To exercise your privacy rights or ask a privacy-related question, contact info@boopgames.be.

If you are located in Belgium, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit / Autorité de protection des données).

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when Boop.io’s features, multiplayer infrastructure, service providers, or legal requirements change.

When we update the policy, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top.
