5. GPS and Location Data

When you submit a progressive jackpot amount, we may collect GPS coordinates at the time of submission. This location data is used exclusively to:

• Verify that submissions are made from the location of the venue
• Attach geographic context to submissions for data integrity purposes
• Display as part of the verified submission badge

We do not track your location continuously. Location is only captured at the moment of a voluntary submission. You may submit anonymously, in which case your username is not displayed publicly, however location data may still be used for internal verification purposes.

6. Photo Submissions

When you submit a photo of a machine display for verification purposes:

• Photos are stored securely on our servers
• Photos are used only to verify the accuracy of submitted progressive amounts
• Photos are reviewed by our moderation team and may be reviewed by venue staff
• Photos are not shared publicly or used for any purpose other than verification
• You retain ownership of photos you submit but grant us a license to use them for verification purposes

7. Information Sharing

We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:

• Public submissions — if you submit a progressive amount without selecting anonymous, your username may be displayed alongside your submission
• Venue partners — venue staff may see submission data related to their venue for verification purposes
• Service providers — we use Supabase for database and authentication services. They process data on our behalf under strict data protection agreements
• Legal requirements — we may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of our users or the public

We do not share your information with advertisers, data brokers, or any third party for commercial purposes.

8. Data Security

We take the security of your information seriously. We use industry standard measures including:

• Encrypted connections (HTTPS) for all data transmission
• Secure password hashing — your password is never stored in plain text
• Row level security on our database — users can only access their own data
• Regular security reviews of our platform

No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information we cannot guarantee absolute security.
