Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Agora ("we," "our," or "us") operates the Agora mobile application and related services. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information. If you create an account, we collect information such as your email address, username, display name, password authentication data, and account consent records.

Gameplay Information. We collect information related to your use of the game, including answers, wagers, scores, timing, reasoning submissions, debate responses, opponent choices, game sessions, results, and progress.

User-Generated Content. You may submit written reasoning, debate responses, feedback, campaign ideas, usernames, display names, and other text. This content may be used to operate gameplay, show results, support community features, improve the app, and enforce our rules.

Voice Input. If you choose to use voice input, the app may request microphone access. Audio is used for transcription and may be sent to ElevenLabs for speech-to-text processing. Voice input is optional; you may type instead.

Friends and Multiplayer. If you use social features, we may process friend requests, friend relationships, live challenge information, ghost opponent sessions, and related gameplay data.

Device, Usage, and Analytics Data. We may collect device and usage information such as app activity, pages/screens viewed, session activity, browser or device type, errors, and analytics events. Analytics may be processed using PostHog if enabled.

2. How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • create and manage accounts;
  • provide the daily game and gameplay features;
  • calculate scores, rankings, results, and personal insights;
  • support friends, ghost opponents, and live challenges;
  • provide AI debate, judging, and reasoning feedback;
  • process optional voice transcription;
  • display community reasoning and other in-app content;
  • improve app reliability, safety, and gameplay quality;
  • respond to support or report requests;
  • comply with legal obligations.

3. AI Features

Agora uses AI services, including Google Gemini, to power debate opponents, scoring, judging, and reasoning feedback. User gameplay text may be sent to these services to provide those features.

4. Third-Party Services

Agora may use third-party providers including:

  • Supabase for authentication, database, and backend services;
  • Google Gemini for AI debate, scoring, and judging;
  • ElevenLabs for optional voice transcription;
  • PostHog for analytics, if configured;
  • email clients for support/report links;
  • external news/source websites when users open source links.

These services process information according to their own terms and privacy policies.

5. News, Political, and Public-Affairs Content

Agora is a current-affairs reasoning game. It may include news, political, government-related, or public-policy topics. Agora does not represent a government body and does not provide official government services.

6. Sharing and Public Content

Some information, such as usernames, display names, scores, friend leaderboard entries, reasoning submissions, or community insights, may be visible to other users depending on the feature. Do not submit content you do not want used in the app experience.

7. Children's Privacy

Agora is not intended for children under 13. Users must confirm that they are at least 13 years old when creating an account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. Purchases and Rewards

Agora does not offer real-money gambling, cash prizes, subscriptions, in-app purchases, or paid random rewards. In-game chips, points, scores, ranks, wagers, and rewards have no monetary value and cannot be purchased, redeemed, withdrawn, transferred, or cashed out.

9. Data Retention

We retain account and gameplay information for as long as needed to provide the app, maintain records, improve the service, enforce rules, and comply with legal obligations. Guest/local gameplay data may be stored on the device.

10. Account Deletion

Signed-in users can delete their account in the app by going to Profile > Settings > Delete my account. Deleting an account removes associated account data from our backend deletion flow and signs the user out. You may also contact us for deletion help.

11. Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

12. Your Choices

You may:

  • play some parts of the app as a guest;
  • choose whether to create an account;
  • type instead of using voice input;
  • decline microphone permission;
  • delete your account;
  • contact us about privacy requests.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted in the app or on our website with a new "Last updated" date.
