What Spindown is

Spindown is a life counter and game tracker for Magic: The Gathering, available at spindown.xyz and as an Android app. It works fully offline without an account; signing in adds cross-device sync and game statistics.

Data we collect

  • Without an account: nothing. Players, settings, and games stay in your browser's or device's local storage.
  • Account data: your email address (from your Google account), and the username and display name you choose.
  • Synced app data: your saved players, app settings, and any in-progress game, stored so your devices stay in sync.
  • Recorded games:when a signed-in host finishes a game, we store the game's players (names or linked accounts), commanders, results, and eliminations. These records are visible only to the host and to signed-in players who were linked into that game — never publicly.

Services we rely on

  • Supabase — authentication and database hosting for account and game data.
  • Vercel — website and API hosting.
  • Google— optional "Sign in with Google."
  • Scryfall— commander names and card art are requested directly from your device when you set a player's commander.

We don't run ads, we don't use analytics trackers, and we never sell your data.

Names other people enter

Hosts can add players to a game by typing a name, or link a seat to an account by its Spindown username. Recorded games are visible only to their participants, and you can hide any game you appear in from your own statistics.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time from the app's profile screen. This permanently removes your account, profile, synced data, and every game you hosted; your seat in games hosted by others is unlinked from your identity. See deleting your account for steps. Local data on your own device is yours and stays until you clear it.

Retention

Account and game data is kept until you delete it (individual game records can be deleted by their host, and your account can be deleted in full).

Children

Spindown is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.
