Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information the platform collects, how it is used, and how it may be disclosed in connection with operating the service.

1. Information collected

The platform may collect and store the following categories of information:

• account information such as email address and nickname;
• authentication data required to maintain your account session;
• Steam-linked identifiers and related gameplay identifiers where you choose to connect them;
• platform activity data such as predictions, tournament participation, and profile settings;
• technical data such as IP address, browser type, device information, and log events.

2. How information is used

Your information may be used to:

• create and maintain your account;
• authenticate users and secure the platform;
• manage tournaments, scoring, rankings, and prizes;
• process support requests and operational communications;
• prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access;
• improve platform reliability and user experience.

3. Cookies and session data

The platform uses cookies or similar session technologies to keep users authenticated and maintain core website functionality. Some cookies may be strictly necessary for login and security.

4. Third-party sources and services

The platform may rely on third-party services for gameplay-related information, authentication flows, hosting, infrastructure, payment handling, and operational analytics. Such third parties may process limited information as required to provide their services.

5. Payment information

The platform does not store full payment card details. Where paid tournaments are offered, payments are processed by external payment service providers who are responsible for the security of card data under their own compliance frameworks.

6. Data sharing

The platform does not sell personal information as part of its normal operation. Information may be shared where reasonably necessary with service providers, payment partners, fraud-prevention tools, legal advisors, regulators, or law enforcement when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect the platform or its users.

7. Data retention

Information may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the service, maintain records, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, comply with law, and enforce platform rules.

8. Security

The platform takes reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect user data, but no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security.

9. Your rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal data. Requests can be handled through the platform operator’s support contact.

10. Children

The platform is not intended for users who are not legally permitted to participate under applicable law. If local law requires an age threshold, users below that threshold must not use the platform.

11. International use

If the platform is accessed from multiple countries, data may be processed in jurisdictions different from the user’s place of residence.

12. Updates

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Continued use of the service after an update means the revised policy applies from the date it is published.
