Game data and privacy

Boardroom lets you play board games in your browser without creating a player account.

Playing and reconnecting

The game server processes your chosen name, room membership, game actions, connection status and room chat. Other players in your room can see your name, public game activity and chat. Private game information is sent to the appropriate player.

Your browser stores your name, saved-seat credentials and sound preferences so you can reconnect and keep your settings. Clearing this site's browser data removes those saved settings and credentials. Keep room links and shared devices private.

Room snapshots are saved on the server for recovery. Inactive rooms are normally removed after 24 hours. Cloud restarts or redeployments can remove saved games sooner. Hosting infrastructure may process technical information such as IP addresses and request logs.

Optional voice chat

Voice starts only when you join and grant microphone permission. Direct mode sends audio between players using WebRTC where possible. Compatibility mode relays live audio through the game server. The game application does not save or record voice audio. Mute stops sending audio; leaving voice releases the microphone.

Advertising

When advertising is enabled, the home and game-library pages can display Google AdSense banners. Google and its partners may use cookies, device information and advertising identifiers to serve and measure ads, subject to the choices available in the consent message. Advertising is not required to join a game.

Where Google's consent message applies, use Privacy and cookie settings beside an ad or Google's privacy link to revisit your choices. Blocking ads does not block gameplay.
