Privacy policy
Last updated: 21 October 2026
Squadfall is a co-op game. This page says what we keep, why, and for how long. Questions or requests: privacy@squadfall.com.
We keep your data so you don't lose your progress. That's the whole reason.
What we keep
| What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| A random player ID | Your account | Until you delete the account |
| Linked sign-in IDs (Apple, Google, Steam), if you link | Signing in on other devices | Until you unlink or delete |
| Display name | Shown to other players | Until you delete the account |
| Progress, items, bests and stats | So you don't lose your progress | Until you delete the account |
| Match History: your last 20 runs, with teammates' names | Your results and recent players | 20 runs, at most 30 days |
| Full run records (party, seed, rewards paid) | Paying each player once | 7 days |
| Store transaction IDs | A purchase pays once | As the law requires |
| Display name and score on the leaderboards | Required for the feature (opt-out) | Weekly boards 12 weeks |
| Anonymous run replays on the website | No personal data (opt-out) | While shown |
| Player reports | Moderation | 30 days |
| Moderation actions | Fair play and safety | 12 months |
| Server logs (shortened player IDs, no IP addresses) | Fixing problems | 7 days |
Your player ID never appears in public. The website never shows names in clips or the live strip.
What we never collect
- Your email address (unless you write to us)
- Your real name, contacts, photos or location
- Device fingerprints or advertising IDs
- Tracking across other apps or websites
- Chat messages (beyond a quoted line in a report)
- Card or payment details
There are no ads that track you, and we never sell data.
Your choices
- Settings → Privacy: show your runs on the leaderboards; allow your runs in anonymous website clips; show your stats to other players. Each is on by default and you can turn it off at any time.
- Delete your account in the game: Settings → Account → Delete account. It is immediate and removes your progress, history and leaderboard names.
- A copy of your data: write to privacy@squadfall.com with your player ID (Settings → Support · Credits shows it).
- Unlinked guest accounts live on one device. Deleting the game can lose them.
Who processes it
- Unity Gaming Services: accounts, cloud saves and the game's backend.
- DigitalOcean: the server that runs matches.
- Cloudflare: the website, its leaderboard copy, and our email.
- Apple, Google or Steam: sign-in and purchases, only if you link or buy.
They process data for us under their own terms.
Children
Squadfall is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data. If you think a child has an account, write to us and we will delete it.
