1. Introduction

Degenerates Anonymous ("we", "our", "us") is operated by Cavendish Holdings. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you use our poker platform at degeneratesaanonymous.com (the "Service").

2. What We Collect

We collect the following information:

  • Account information: Name, email address, and password (hashed) when you create an account.
  • Profile information: Display name, avatar, timezone, currency, and language preferences.
  • OAuth data: If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email, and profile picture from Google.
  • Game data: Information about games you join, host, or manage, including RSVP status, buy-ins, and results.
  • Usage data: How you interact with the Service, for the purpose of improving the platform.

3. How We Use Your Data

  • To provide AI-powered features (hand analysis, coaching) when you opt in

4. Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored on Microsoft Azure servers. We use industry-standard encryption for data in transit (TLS/SSL) and at rest. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt with 12 rounds. The optional "Book" feature uses AES-256 client-side encryption — we cannot read your encrypted book data.

You have the right to:

  • Access your personal data
  • Correct inaccurate data
  • Delete your account and associated data
  • Export your data
  • Opt out of non-essential communications

7. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We only share data with the third-party services listed above, and only as necessary to operate the Service. Game data (such as your display name and results) may be visible to other members of games and leagues you participate in, as configured by your privacy settings.

8. Cookies

We use essential cookies for authentication (session cookies). We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
