Privacy & cookies
Last updated 29 October 2026
boobest.tv collects quotes from Twitch chat and turns them into games. This page explains what the site stores, why, and how to get it removed. For any question or request, write to [email protected].
The short version
- No ads, no analytics, no tracking scripts from other companies.
- Cookies are only used to make the site work: logins, your daily progress, and keeping your plays together.
- You can play without an account. Logging in with Twitch is optional.
- Email us and we will delete your data or your quotes.
What we store
Quotes from Twitch chat. The site shows chat messages together with the Twitch username of the person who wrote them, and the colour of their name in chat. If you would like a quote of yours taken down, or all of them, email us with your Twitch username.
Your plays. Each vote in Battle and each answer in Guess and the Daily is saved: which quotes were shown, what you picked, whether it was right, how long you took, and when. This powers the rankings, your stats and a year-end recap of your games. Plays made without logging in are saved under a random code kept in a cookie on your browser, not under your name.
Your Twitch account, if you log in with Twitch. We receive your Twitch user ID, username, display name and profile picture, and note when you last logged in. We do not get your email address or your password, and we cannot do anything on Twitch for you. Your plays from that browser, including the ones from before you logged in, are then linked to your account.
Technical data. While you are logged in or playing, the site keeps a session that records your IP address and browser type. Sessions are deleted after a week without visits. Each answer you give in the games is also noted with your IP address and browser type, so we can spot and undo answers sent in by scripts or by one person replaying the Daily over and over, and so only a few Daily games played without logging in from the same connection count toward its results each day. Those notes are deleted after a week; the answer itself is kept as described above.
Why we use it
To run the site and its games, keep scores and rankings fair, and show you your own stats. When you log in with Twitch, we use your account details to give you the account you asked for (GDPR article 6(1)(b)). Everything else relies on our legitimate interest in running the site and protecting it from abuse (article 6(1)(f)). We never sell your data or use it for advertising.
Cookies and local storage
All of these come from boobest.tv itself, and all are needed for the feature they belong to, so the site does not ask for consent. Cookies are encrypted, so their contents cannot be read or changed by others.

Other services
- Cloudflare delivers the site and protects it from attacks, so it handles every request, including your IP address.
- Twitch handles the login when you choose to log in with Twitch, and profile pictures are loaded from Twitch's servers.
- 7TV, BetterTTV and FrankerFaceZ host the emotes shown in quotes. Your browser loads the emote images from their servers.
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) hosts the server and database.
Some of these companies are based outside the EU, mainly in the United States, and handle data under their own privacy policies.
How long we keep it
Your Twitch account details and plays are kept until you ask us to delete them. Unlinking Twitch (in the menu under your profile picture) removes your Twitch details right away but keeps your games, so you can get them back later. Sessions are deleted after a week without visits, and the IP address and browser type noted with an answer a week after it was given.
Your rights
You can ask to see the data we have about you, correct it, get a copy, delete it, or object to how we use it. Email [email protected] from any address and tell us your Twitch username. We will reply within a month. If you think we handle your data wrongly, you can also complain to the data protection authority in your country.
