Privacy Policy

Your account

When you make an account we keep your email address, a scrambled one-way hash of your password (never the password itself), and the list of what you own. That is how we sign you in and let you download what you've paid for. We don't sell it, rent it, or whisper it to the neighbors.

If you connect a Patreon account, we store the profile Patreon hands us: your Patreon name, avatar, email, and your backer status for our campaign, so we can show your linked account and recognize that you're keeping the lights on. We never see your Patreon password. You can disconnect Patreon any time from your account page, which deletes the stored profile.

Crash reports (launcher)

When the launcher faceplants and a report is sent, it includes the launcher version, your operating system, the error and stack trace, recent launcher logs, and what the launcher was up to at the time. It never includes your email, password, or sign-in tokens, and your Windows username is scrubbed out of any file paths. Reports are tagged with a one-way hash of your email so we can group yours together; that hash can't be turned back into your email. They live on our own servers, are seen only by our team, and are deleted after 30 days.

Crash reports (game)

If the game itself takes a tumble, we send a diagnostic report through our crash-monitoring provider, Sentry. It includes the game version, your operating system and graphics hardware, the error and stack trace, and a short trail of recent in-game events. It never includes your email, password, or sign-in tokens, and your Windows username is scrubbed from file paths. Like the launcher, reports are tagged with a one-way hash of your email, never the email itself. To deliver these reports, Sentry may process your IP address, which can hint at your approximate location. This follows the same on/off setting as the launcher's crash reporting.

Usage data (launcher)

We collect anonymous usage events, like a download starting or an install finishing, plus basic numbers such as a download's size. Same house rules as above: no email, password, or tokens, and your Windows username stripped from paths. Events carry a random install ID; once you sign in they also carry the one-way hash of your email. This data sits on our own servers and ages out on its own after about three months.

How we protect your data

We keep your data safe with standard security practices. Connections to our servers are encrypted, your password is stored only as scrambled one-way data that can't be read back, and access to anything we store is limited to our team. Crash and usage data are stripped of personal details on your device before they ever leave it.

Your choices

Crash reporting and usage data are both optional. Open the launcher's Settings to switch either one off. Turning usage data off stops new events; anything already sent expires on its own.
