Privacy policy

Updated September 9, 2026

Last Marble / Drop Club is a live-chat game operated at smialek.com. This policy describes information used when you connect a Google account and YouTube channel.

Connecting your account

Google handles sign-in and asks you to approve read-only YouTube access. We store your Google account identifier, your connected YouTube channel identifier and name, and encrypted authorization tokens needed to reconnect to YouTube. These are used to identify your account, find your live broadcasts, and collect game entries.

Chat entries and rounds

While a streamer opens entries, the service reads live chat to recognize the !play command. It stores each entrant’s YouTube channel identifier, display name, entry time, and entry message identifier. Message text is discarded after processing. The selected lineup, random game seed, and winner are stored with the round. Round and entrant records are deleted after 24 hours.

Player names and marble designs appear in the game and may be visible in a streamer’s broadcast. Viewers enter through YouTube chat and do not need a game account here.

Sessions and service providers

A necessary session cookie keeps you signed in and protects account actions. Google and YouTube process requests according to their own policies. The service also keeps limited technical error and connection information to operate chat collection; credentials and chat message text are excluded from application logs.

Your information is used to operate the game, not for advertising or sale. Read the Google Privacy Policy for Google’s handling of information.

Disconnect or delete

Use Account → Disconnect YouTube to remove the saved connection and rounds, or Account → Delete game account to also delete your account profile. The service requests revocation of its Google authorization. If Google is temporarily unavailable, an encrypted revocation request may be retained for up to 24 hours while retrying. After processing a disconnect, a one-way account marker may be retained for up to 24 hours to prevent that disconnect from interfering with a new sign-in. This marker contains no authorization token.

You can also revoke access directly from your Google account’s connections page. Signing out ends the current game-site session; disconnecting removes the saved YouTube connection.
