Important notes:
- This data is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to our servers

- This feature works for both anonymous and logged-in users
3. Use of Your Information
Having accurate information permits us to provide you with a smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the chatbot to:
- Generate chatbot responses to your messages and requests.
- Create and manage your account.
- Generate and grade trivia quizzes based on your interaction.
- Maintain a history of your conversation to provide context for follow-up questions.

4. Disclosure of Your Information & Third-Party Services
We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations.
Third-Party API:
The core functionality of the InQuiziTriv, which can be found at https://www.inquizitriv.com/, is powered by a third-party service. Your conversation data is sent to OpenAI to generate responses.
- This data is transmitted to the OpenAI API, which can be accessed at: https://api.openai.com/v1.
- We do not control how OpenAI uses this data. We strongly advise you to review their privacy policy to understand how your information is handled. You can access OpenAI's privacy policy here: https://openai.com/privacy.
Third-Party Services for Visual Effects & Fonts:
To enhance your experience with visual effects and typography, we use the following third-party services:
- Google Fonts: We use Google Fonts to provide consistent, high-quality typography across the application. When you access our service, your browser may download font files from Google's servers. Google may collect anonymized usage data. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy and Google Fonts Privacy FAQ.
- Canvas-Confetti (confetti.browser.min.js): We use the canvas-confetti library to display celebration effects when you achieve perfect scores or unlock achievements. This library runs entirely in your browser and does not transmit any data to external servers. Source: https://github.com/catdad/canvas-confetti (ISC License).
- PlayCanvas-Style Effects: We use custom canvas-based visual effects inspired by the PlayCanvas engine for particle animations (sparkles, fire trails, explosions) during gameplay. These effects run entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API and do not transmit any data to external servers.
By Law or to Protect Rights:
If we believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of our policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of others, we may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
5. Your Rights and Control Over Your Information
We provide you with options to manage your data. Based on the functionality of our service, you have the right to:
- Delete your chat conversations.
- Delete your user account entirely.
- Clear local storage data: You can clear all locally stored session data through your browser's settings (typically under Privacy or Site Settings). This will remove all saved quiz sessions and drafts from your device.
These options are available within the "Settings" menu of the application's sidebar.
6. Security of Your Information
We use administrative and technical security measures to help protect your personal information. While we have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to us, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
7. Policy for Children
We do not knowingly solicit information from or market to children under the age of 13. If you become aware of any data we have collected from children under age 13, please contact us using the contact information provided below.
