What is public
Your name and your ladder entry (level, deepest Hotfix beaten) are visible to everyone, on the website and in the game. Nothing else about your account is public.
Cookies and browser storage
The website sets no cookies and does not measure its audience. When you are signed in, the website and the game keep your session in your browser, and the game keeps a copy of your game there: this is necessary for them to work, and nothing is sent to third parties. The website's fonts are hosted on our own server: no IP address is sent to a third party to display them.
Where your data is, and who processes it for us
- Hosting: our servers are rented from OVHcloud, in a data center in Canada (Beauharnois, Quebec). The European Commission recognizes that Canada provides an adequate level of protection for personal data: this transfer relies on its adequacy decision. An encrypted backup copy of the database is kept by OVHcloud in France (European Union) for 14 days.
- Email delivery (address verification, forgotten password): not active yet. The provider will be named here before the first email is sent.
- Google and Discord, if you choose to sign in with them: they then process your data under their own privacy policies.
How long we keep it
- Your account, your save and your ladder entry: as long as your account exists.
- Links sent by email: one hour, single use.
- Backup copies of our database: 14 days.
- Technical server logs: limited in size and continuously overwritten. The website keeps no visit log; an IP address may occasionally appear in them during a technical error.
- When you delete your account, everything is erased except your name in the game, which stays reserved so that no other player can take it. It is then no longer linked to any data. Database backup copies erase themselves within 14 days.
Security
Connections to the website and the game are encrypted (HTTPS). Passwords are stored as a secure hash from which they cannot be recovered. Access to the server is restricted to the team.
Your rights
You can access your data, have it corrected or erased, receive a copy of it, object to a processing, or ask for it to be restricted. Email us at contact@imnotacheater.com. You can delete your account yourself from your Account page, or by emailing us. If you believe your rights are not respected, you can lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (www.cnil.fr).
Minimum age
The game is open to people aged 13 and over. Between 13 and 15, the agreement of a parent or guardian is required to create an account.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version is published on this page with its date. A significant change is announced in the game.
