JackpotSpyJackpotSpy is a community app: agents photograph jackpot displays at bars, and together those readings build the history that powers everyone's predictions. That only works if we're straight with you about what the app records. Here it is, plainly.
What we collect
- Account: your email address and a code name (a pseudonym you pick, or let the Spymaster generate one). Your email is never shown to other users.
- Contributions: the jackpot readings you submit: the photo (when you use the camera), the extracted dollar amounts, the machine, the location, and the time. Recording the where-and-when is the whole point of the app: it's what makes the crowd's history trustworthy.
- Location: your device location is used at contribution time to confirm you're at the venue, and on the Home screen to detect nearby locations. We do not track your location in the background.
- Hit alerts (optional): when you turn on Hit alerts, we store a push notification token for your device so we can send the alert. It is tied to your account, used only for alerts you asked for, delivered through Expo's push service, and removed when you turn the switch off or delete your account.
- Age confirmation: the date you confirmed you are 21 or older when you signed in.
What other users see
- Your code name only, never your email or real name.
- Approximate times on your contributions ("this evening," "2 days ago"). Other users never see the exact minute you were somewhere.
- Prefer full anonymity? Turn on Undercover mode in your profile and your contributions show to others as "Undercover Agent."
How we use your data
- To build the shared jackpot history and the predictions it powers.
- Photos are processed by AI services (Google Gemini, with Anthropic Claude as fallback) solely to read the jackpot amounts off the display. Frame the jackpot display, not people.
- To run the app: unlock tracking, contribution counts, and abuse prevention.
- We do not sell your data, and we don't use it for advertising.
Where it lives
Data is stored with Supabase (our database and storage provider) in the United States. Venue information may come from Google Places. Photos of jackpot displays are read by an AI vision service (Google Gemini, with Anthropic Claude as a fallback) acting as our processor; the photo is used only to read the amounts. Push notifications are delivered by Expo. We keep contribution history indefinitely. It's the community's shared record.
Deleting your account
In the app: Profile, then Settings, then Delete account. Your account is removed right away: your email, code name, profile, saved locations, alert settings, push token and the photos you uploaded are deleted. Jackpot readings you contributed remain in the community history, permanently disconnected from you.
Or email privacy@jackpotspy.ai from your account email and we'll do the same within 30 days.
Age
JackpotSpy is for adults 21 and older. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 21.
Changes & contact
If this policy changes materially during the beta, we'll note it in the app's release notes and update the date above. Questions: privacy@jackpotspy.ai.
