Notice at collection
This short California notice explains the categories of personal information Big Spinning Wheel collects, why we collect it, how long we typically keep it, and where to find the full privacy policy.
What we collect
- Identifiers and account data, such as email address, account ID, and login or security data used for passwords, passkeys, recovery, and MFA.
- Internet or network activity, such as IP address, browser or device details, timestamps, and diagnostic logs.
- User content and collaboration data, such as wheel names, content you type, upload, or import into wheels, wheel settings, landed segment enabled/disabled state, collaboration settings and permissions, ownership-transfer data, public link and embed settings, favorites/saved wheels, and spin results or history tied to a wheel.
- Support communications you send to us.
Why we collect it
- Provide and operate the service, including real-time wheel updates, favorites, the signed-in wheels workspace, collaborator access, ownership transfer workflows, public link and owner-enabled embed access, and the ability to create, import, replace, operate, share, and export wheels and wheel definitions.
- Maintain accounts, authenticate users, and secure the service.
- Prevent abuse, investigate issues, debug problems, and improve reliability.
- Communicate with users about account, security, or support matters.
- Comply with law and enforce our Terms.
Sale or sharing
We do not sell personal information. We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Unused invite codes do not show who will use them. After someone uses a code, they appear as a collaborator according to the permissions the owner granted.
Typical retention
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes above. Retention is typically around 30 days for transient logs, diagnostics, backups, temporary sharing records, pending ownership-transfer request data, and similar operational data. Some information, including operational audit records, account-security events, wheel/share/transfer history, and legal or compliance records, may be kept longer when reasonably necessary for security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, legal compliance, or backup recovery.
| Category | Typical retention |
|---|---|
| Account and profile data | While your account is active, then typically about 30 days after deletion for closure processing. Some records may remain longer where required or permitted by law. |
| Wheel content and settings | Until the current owner deletes the wheel or closes the owning account, unless longer retention is reasonably necessary for safety, abuse prevention, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or backup recovery. Ownership transfer keeps the same wheel record, and the current owner controls deletion of that wheel record. Former owners and collaborators may submit privacy requests, but deletion or correction may be limited when the same wheel content is controlled by another user or retained for permitted safety, legal, abuse-prevention, dispute, or backup reasons. |
| Favorites | Until you unfavorite the wheel, your account is deleted or closed through the account/privacy request process, or the referenced wheel is deleted or archived. Public-only favorites can appear in your workspace while the public link remains active. Disabling or revoking the public link removes public-only favorites. Owner and collaborator favorites remain governed by authenticated access. |
| Spin history and invite metadata | Typically about 30 days, but may be longer when needed for service integrity, abuse prevention, or legal compliance. |
| Logs, diagnostics, backups, and operational audit records | Typically about 30 days for transient logs and diagnostics, but operational audit records may be kept longer where reasonably necessary for backup recovery, security review, dispute resolution, or compliance. |
