01What is held

About a streamer: their Twitch channel name, display name and profile picture, and a record of the ads shown on their channel. That record includes when each ad was shown, for how long, how many people were watching, and what the channel was streaming at the time. Each streamer also has a private link that lets their own voice page connect.

About an operator: their email address, and the record of their acceptance of these terms, which includes when they accepted, which version they were shown, and the network address it came from. That record is kept as evidence of the agreement.

About the agency: the credentials for its Twitch bot account, stored encrypted.

About anyone who connects: when a request to the service is refused or fails, the server log records the network address it came from and the name the connecting software gives for itself. It is kept to identify automated scanning and abuse, and is not used to build a record of anyone’s activity.

02Viewer names are never stored

When a viewer votes in a chat poll, their name appears on the stream overlay while the vote is running. It is not recorded. Once the vote closes, nothing identifying any viewer is kept.

03The microphone leaves the machine

Voice triggers use the browser’s speech recognition. While a streamer has the voice page open, their microphone audio is sent to a third-party speech service to be transcribed so that spoken trigger words can be detected. The audio leaves the streamer’s computer for this purpose. That service appears in the sub-processor list.

04Proof clips

Clips are created on the streaming platform and referenced by link. The recording lives there, not with us.

05No tracking

No analytics, no advertising pixels, no session recording. Cookies are functional only: the sign-in session, and the session proof for a shared report link.

06Sub-processors

The services the platform runs on, and the speech service above, are named in the sub-processor list.
