Privacy policy

Kick Info (“we”, “us”, the “Site”) is an unofficial public analytics dashboard for Kick.com. The Site does not require an account; you can browse anonymously. This page explains what limited data we still process when you use the Site.

1. Information we collect

1.1 Public Kick.com data

We periodically fetch publicly available channel and stream information from kick.com — channel names, avatars, follower counts, viewer counts, stream titles, and categories. None of this is personal information about you; it’s data Kick.com publishes about its broadcasters.

1.2 Server logs

Our hosting and CDN providers automatically receive standard request metadata when you visit pages: your IP address, user-agent, referrer, the URL requested, and a timestamp. Logs are kept short-term for operational purposes (debugging, abuse prevention, capacity planning).

1.3 Cookies set by us

The Site itself does not set any first-party tracking cookies. We do not use first-party analytics. The only cookies you may see come from third parties listed below.

2. Third-party services

2.1 Cloudflare

Our domain is fronted by Cloudflare for TLS, DDoS protection, and bot mitigation. Cloudflare may set security cookies (e.g. __cf_bm) and process your IP for these purposes.

2.2 Google AdSense

Some pages may display ads via Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or, more broadly, aboutads.info/choices.

Visitors from countries we’ve excluded (currently Turkey) are not served the AdSense loader at all — the script never loads in those regions.

2.3 Google Fonts

We self-host fonts where possible. Where Google-hosted fonts are loaded through Next.js, only standard request metadata is shared with Google.

3. How we use information

• To operate and secure the Site (request logs, abuse handling).
• To compute and display public Kick.com statistics (channels, viewer trends, follower growth, top streams, top categories).
• To allow our advertising partner to deliver relevant or non-personalized ads, subject to your settings.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not build user profiles of visitors.

4. Legal bases (EU/UK visitors)

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on:

• Legitimate interest — operating the Site, preventing abuse, and delivering the analytics features you came for.
• Consent— for personalized advertising via third-party ad partners. Google’s consent management handles this within the AdSense flow.

5. Data retention

Server logs are typically retained for 30 days. Aggregate analytics data we compute about Kick.com (and which contains no personal information about visitors) may be kept indefinitely.

6. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port personal information about you, and to object to or restrict processing. Because we do not maintain user accounts, most exercises of these rights are addressed by deleting your local cookies/storage in your browser. To make a specific request or ask a question, contact us at the email below.

7. Children

The Site is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect data about children.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the most recent change. Material changes will be highlighted on the homepage.
