Privacy

Last updated October 6, 2026

Short version: a gift is private to the people you send the link to. We don't have accounts, ads or trackers, and we never sell anything about you.

What goes into a gift

When you make a game you add their name and yours, the occasion, who they are to you, three favorite things, inside jokes, three moments, a letter, photos (their face, and if you choose, your face and a photo of you two) and, if you add one, a voice message from you. All of that is the gift.

Where it's kept

• When you wrap a gift, it's saved privately on our hosting provider (Vercel) and gets a random link. Anyone with that link can open it, so share it only with the people you want to see it.
• While you're still making it, your draft is saved only in your own browser so you can come back to it. We can't see drafts.
• Photos are shrunk and stored inside the gift. We don't use them for anything else, and we don't run face recognition.
• When the link is pasted into a chat app, its preview shows who the gift is from and who it's for, and a picture of a gift box with their first name on the tag. Nothing else from the gift: never the letter, the photos or the voice message.

Voice messages

• Recording happens in your browser. It asks you before the mic turns on, and the mic is only used while you're recording. Until you wrap the gift, the recording stays on your device.
• When you wrap the gift, the voice message is stored privately next to it, in the same place, and plays only for people who open the gift's link. We don't use it for anything else, and we don't analyze voices.
• It's deleted with the gift. To remove only the voice message, open Memorcade in the browser you made the gift in, tap Edit, delete it on the letter step and wrap the gift again. Or ask us to delete the whole gift (below).

The idea helper

If you tap Ideas, "Fill in the game for me", "Write a draft for me" or one of the "Make it..." buttons, what you've typed for that gift (including anything in "Tell us about them") is sent to an AI model through Vercel AI Gateway only to write suggestions. That's Anthropic's Claude, or OpenAI's GPT when Claude isn't available. We don't store that text, and we don't use it to train anything. If you never tap those buttons, nothing is sent.

Reports and messages

If you report a gift or send us a message from the Help page, we keep what you write and any contact info you choose to add, so we can look into it and reply.

What we don't do

• No accounts or passwords. When you pay, you pay on Stripe's own page, and we never see or store your card details.
• No advertising or tracking cookies. No selling or sharing of your data.

Services we use

Vercel hosts the site and stores gifts and voice messages. Stripe handles payments. Like any web host, it keeps short-lived technical logs (such as IP addresses) for security and reliability. Fonts load from Google Fonts. The idea helper uses AI models from Anthropic and OpenAI through Vercel AI Gateway.

Deleting a gift

Send us the gift link from the Help page and we'll delete it, with its photos and voice message, usually within a few days.

Kids

You need to be 13 or older to make a gift. Parents are welcome to make games for their kids.

Changes

If this changes in a way that matters, we'll update this page and the date at the top.
