Privacy
Last updated 2 October 2026
pickone.day helps a group find a day that works. There are no accounts, no emails and no phone numbers, and we store as little as we can for as short a time as we can.
What we store
- For each event: its name, its link and a one-way hash of the group password (never the password itself).
- For each person in an event: the name, emoji and colour they pick, a one-way hash of their 4-digit PIN (never the PIN itself), and the answer they give for each day.
That's all. We don't ask for, and don't store, your email, phone number, real name or location.
Passwords and PINs
Group passwords and PINs are never stored as you type them. We keep only a one-way hash, which can check a password but can't be turned back into it. That's also why a forgotten PIN can't be recovered.
Who can see what
Only people with the event's link and password can get in. Everyone in an event can see who has joined and each person's answers. The host can rename the event, change its dates or password, remove people and delete the event.
Cookies and this device
We only use cookies that are needed for the site to work. There are no tracking, analytics or advertising cookies.
- Group access (30 days): remembers that you entered an event's password.
- Sign-in (up to 180 days, renewed while you use it): keeps you signed in to your profile in that event.
- Host setup (up to 7 days): lets whoever created an event finish setting it up as the host.
Your browser also keeps a few things on this device only: the list of your recent events, answers you haven't saved yet, the profile you used last, and, just once after creating an event, its password so we can show you the share card. These never leave your device and you can clear them by clearing this site's data.
IP addresses
We never store your IP address. To slow down password guessing we keep a scrambled, one-way version of it for a short time, and those records are deleted within a day or two. The site runs on Cloudflare, which handles requests to deliver it.
How long we keep things
We only keep event data, and every event deletes itself:
- Events nobody else joined (only one person in them) are deleted after 7 days without a visit.
- Every other event is deleted 30 days after its last date (or after it was created, if no dates were picked), or 30 days after someone last opened it if that's later.
- The host can delete an event at any time.
Deleting an event removes everything in it: people, PINs, answers and sign-ins. Leaving an event deletes your profile and answers.
