Legal
Privacy Policy
Last updated: 16 September 2026. This policy covers the Autobattler game client (Steam, Google Play, App Store / TestFlight) and its servers.
Who is responsible
Autobattler is developed and operated by an independent developer. Questions about this policy or about your data: support@autobattler.online.
What we collect
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
Platform account id — your Steam ID, Play Games player id or Game Center
teamPlayerID |
It is your account in the game: it links your device to your progress. We never receive your e-mail address, real name or payment details from the platform. |
| Nickname — the display name shown to other players, taken from your platform profile by default and changeable in-game | Shown to opponents, in lobbies and on leaderboards. |
| Game data — progress, collection, matches played and their results, rating, in-game currency and purchases of in-game items | Running the game: the server is authoritative, so your progress lives on it and not only on your device. |
| Purchase records — the store's transaction id and the product purchased | Crediting what you bought and handling refunds. Payments are processed by Steam, Google or Apple; card data never reaches us. |
| Technical data — IP address, client version, platform, error messages, times of connection | Operating and debugging the service, and blocking abuse. Kept in server logs for 30 days. |
What we do not do
- No advertising, and no advertising identifiers.
- No tracking across other apps or websites, and no third-party analytics or ad SDKs in the game.
- No selling or sharing of your data. Aggregate play statistics are computed on our own servers and are not tied to you when we look at them.
- The game is not directed at children under 13.
Who else is involved
Signing in, and paying, happen through the platform you play on — Steam, Google Play or Apple Game Center / App Store. Their own privacy policies apply to what they do. We receive from them only the account id (and, for a purchase, a signed receipt).
Where the data lives
On servers we rent in Germany (netcup GmbH). Backups are encrypted and stored with Backblaze.
How long we keep it
Account and game data: as long as the account exists. Server logs: 30 days. Purchase records are kept longer where bookkeeping or store rules require it.
Your choices
Write to support@autobattler.online from the platform account you play on (or tell us your in-game nickname and player id) to get a copy of your data, correct it, or have the account and its data deleted. Deleting the account is permanent: progress and purchased in-game items cannot be restored afterwards.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, the new version is published here with a new date. The game is in development, so the list above will grow as features ship.
