Cookies

StarShot may use cookies or similar technologies to:

Sharing Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information:

With service providers that help operate the Service.

If required by law.

To protect the security of the Service.

Third-Party Authentication

If you sign in using Google, Microsoft, or Discord, authentication is handled by those providers. Their privacy policies also apply.

Product Analytics

We use a product analytics provider (currently PostHog) to understand how the Service is used and to improve it. This records gameplay events such as signing in, starting or finishing a match, and menu navigation, along with your account username, guest status, and basic device information (device type, viewport size, browser). We do not send analytics events containing your password, payment information, or the contents of private messages. Analytics can be disabled Service-wide by an administrator at any time; we do not currently offer a per-player opt-out. Our analytics provider's own privacy policy also applies to how it processes this data on our behalf.

Data Retention

We retain account information while your account remains active.

You may request deletion of your account, subject to legal obligations and backup retention.

Feedback and bug reports may be retained after a guest session ends or an account is deleted so we can investigate problems and improve the Service. When this happens, the report is no longer shown under your username or account identity; it is associated only with an anonymized deleted-user record.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect your information. However, no Internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed toward children under 13.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

Access your data

Correct inaccurate information

Delete your account

Request a copy of your information

Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. The effective date at the top of this page will be updated whenever changes are made.
