Terms of Service & Privacy Policy
Last updated: [August 1st, 2026]
Terms of Service
1. What maniquest is
maniquest is a web application where users set one task ("quest") each day — planned the night before, or the same day if none was set — and prove they followed through with a live photo. Quests and photos are visible to other users and are deleted daily.
2. Who can use maniquest
You must be at least 16 years old to create an account.
3. Your account
- You're responsible for keeping your login details secure.
- One account per person. Don't create accounts on behalf of others or impersonate someone else.
- You can delete your account at any time from Settings (see Privacy Policy below for what happens when you do).
4. Your quests and photos
- You choose your own quest each day. maniquest doesn't verify that a quest was actually completed — the live photo is proof you're willing to share, not a guarantee of the outcome.
- Photos must be taken live, in the moment, using the app's camera — not uploaded from your gallery.
- Quests and photos are visible to all other maniquest users for that day, and are automatically deleted at midnight, Irish/UK time. If you want to keep a copy of your own photo, save it to your device before it's wiped by using the 'Download' button.
5. Acceptable use
Don't use maniquest to:
- Post photos or quests that are abusive, harassing, sexually explicit, or illegal
- Post content that isn't genuinely your own attempt at your stated quest
- Impersonate another person or misrepresent who you are
- Attempt to disrupt, hack, or abuse the service
maniquest may review reported content and, at its discretion, may reset a user's streak or restrict an account for violations of these terms.
6. No guarantees
maniquest is provided "as is." We do our best to keep it running reliably, but we don't guarantee uninterrupted access, and we're not responsible for any consequences of missed quests, technical issues, or content posted by other users.
7. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as maniquest evolves. If we make significant changes, we'll do our best to let you know before they take effect.

Privacy Policy
1. What data we collect
- Email address — used for account login and identification.
- Password — stored securely (hashed, never in plain text).
- Profile info (optional) — a tagline and profile picture, if you choose to add them.
- Quest text — the task you set each day.
- Proof photos — live photos you take to prove you completed your quest.
2. How we use your data
- To operate your account (login, authentication).
- To display your quests and proof photos to other users, as part of how maniquest works.
- To calculate and display your streak and lifetime completed total.
We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising.
3. How long we keep your data
- Quest text and proof photos are deleted automatically every night. They are not backed up or archived — once deleted, they're gone from our systems permanently.
- Your account details (email, password, streak, lifetime total, profile info) are kept for as long as your account is active.
- If you choose to save a photo to your own device before it's deleted, that copy is yours and is no longer something maniquest can access or control.
4. Account deletion
You can delete your account at any time from the Settings page. When you do:
- Your account, email, password, profile picture, tagline, streak, and lifetime total are permanently deleted from our systems.
- Any of your quests and proof photos still on our servers are also permanently deleted, including the actual image files, not just the records referencing them.
- We do not retain a copy of your email or any other personal data after deletion.
- This action cannot be undone — there is no recovery period or grace window.
5. Who can see your data
- Your daily quest and proof photo are visible to all other maniquest users, for that day only.
- Your profile info (tagline, picture, streak, lifetime total) is visible to other users while your account is active.
- We do not share your data with third parties, except where required by law.
6. Your rights
Since maniquest is used in Ireland/the EU, you have rights under GDPR, including the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your account and data (see above)
- Ask questions about how your data is used

7. Cookies
maniquest uses a small number of strictly necessary cookies to operate:
- A session cookie, which keeps you signed in while you use the app.
- An optional "remember me" cookie, set only if you tick "Remember me" when signing in, which keeps you signed in for up to 30 days without needing to log in again.
These cookies are essential to how maniquest works and are not used for tracking, advertising, or analytics. Because of this, they don't require separate cookie consent under applicable law.
8. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect your data, including secure password storage and standard web security practices. However, no system is 100% secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as maniquest evolves. If we make significant changes, we'll do our best to let you know before they take effect.
