Effective Date: Dec 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how Bestie Forever (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use our website, accessible at bestie.orforever.com (the “Service”). By accessing or using the Service, you consent to the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree with this Privacy Policy, please discontinue use of the Service. We may update this Policy from time to time, and any changes will take effect immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the Service after updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised Policy.

Bestie Forever is a friendship trivia and quiz platform that allows users to answer questions, generate shareable quizzes, and view responses from friends. You may use the Service anonymously, and no account is required. When you participate in quizzes or enter your name or nickname, this information is voluntarily provided by you. Quiz answers, names, and other inputs you submit are stored so the quiz creator can view results. We do not request sensitive personal data or identification information beyond what you choose to provide.

We also automatically collect certain technical information to operate and improve the Service. This includes your device type, browser, anonymous IP address, language preferences, interaction logs, pages visited, and general location (city-level only). This type of data is collected through cookies, local storage, and analytics technologies.

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how users interact with the website. GA4 collects event-based information such as page views, button clicks, and time spent on pages. All analytics data collected through GA4 is anonymized and processed under Google’s Privacy Policy. You may opt out of Google Analytics data collection using the tools Google provides.

Bestie Forever also displays advertisements through Google Ads/AdSense, which may use cookies such as DoubleClick or other identifiers to deliver relevant ads. These advertising partners may collect browsing data for ad personalization unless you opt out. We do not control how third-party advertisers use their own tracking technologies; however, no quiz answers or personal identifiers you enter into the Service are shared with advertisers.

If you choose to enable push notifications, we may collect a browser-generated token that allows us to send you updates, reminders, or quiz-related alerts. You may disable push notifications at any time through your device or browser settings.

Cookies and local storage are used to enhance the user experience by remembering quiz progress, storing temporary user keys, saving language preferences, preventing spam, and allowing analytics and advertising features to work properly. You may disable cookies, although doing so may affect functionality.

Your information is used solely to operate and improve the Service, display quiz results, personalize your experience, deliver ads, prevent abuse, and maintain the security and performance of the platform. We do not sell your personal information to third parties. Limited technical data may be shared with trusted analytics, advertising, or infrastructure providers, but quiz answers, names, and user-generated content are never shared with advertisers or unrelated parties.

We retain quiz-related data, including names and answers, for up to one year, after which it is automatically deleted. Analytics data and cookies follow the retention rules of the providers that process them, such as Google. You may request manual deletion of your quiz data by contacting us.

Although we take reasonable steps to protect the information we collect—including HTTPS encryption, secure hosting, and internal access controls—we cannot guarantee absolute security due to the nature of online services.

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or advertisements that lead outside bestie.orforever.com. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or policies of external sites or services.

Depending on your region, you may have rights to access, delete, or restrict processing of your data. You can also control cookies, notification permissions, and ad personalization directly through your browser or Google account settings.

Bestie Forever is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us and we will remove it.

We may transfer data to servers outside your home country as needed to operate the Service. By using the platform, you consent to such transfers as allowed by law.

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or need assistance with your data, you may contact us at bestieorforever@gmail.com or visit bestie.orforever.com. Your continued use of Bestie Forever confirms that you have read and understood this Policy and agree to its terms.
