StarForge Arena

Privacy policy

Effective: [DATE - set when hosted]

StarForge Arena is developed by Jeff Caldwell ("we", "us"). This policy

covers the StarForge Arena mobile game.

What we collect

If you play as a guest: nothing leaves your device. Practice

matches run entirely locally.

If you create an account:

  • Email address - your sign-in credential. Never shown to other

players, never used for marketing.

  • Pilot name - the name you choose, visible to other players in

matches, kill feeds, and leaderboards.

  • Gameplay records - match results, kills/deaths, experience, and

rank, linked to your account to run leaderboards and progression.

  • Fair-play reports - clients report impossible movement or fire

rates they observe to keep matches fair. Reports reference account

IDs, never message content (there is no chat).

  • Match statistics - shots fired and landed, damage dealt and taken,

objective scores, which input device you used, and how long the match

ran. Linked to your account and used only by us, to balance the game

and to see whether a change actually helped. Never shown to other

players and never used for ranking. You can turn this off in Pause

menu → SETTINGS → EXTRAS → SHARE MATCH STATS; nothing is collected

while it is off.

  • Your settings - if you are signed in, your control, audio and

accessibility preferences are saved to your account so a new device

picks up where the old one left off.

From everyone:

  • Crash data - anonymous crash summaries (device model, OS version,

stack trace) used only to fix bugs. Not linked to your identity.

What we don't do

  • No advertising, no ad identifiers, no cross-app tracking (the app

never shows the App Tracking Transparency prompt because it has

nothing to ask for).

  • No selling or sharing of personal data with third parties.
  • No chat and no direct messages exist in the game.

Service providers

Game accounts and records are stored with Supabase (database hosting).

Real-time matches are relayed by Photon (Exit Games GmbH); Photon sees

transient connection data (IP address) as part of relaying gameplay

traffic, retained only as needed to operate the service.

Deleting your account

Pause menu → SETTINGS → DELETE ACCOUNT removes your account and every

server-side record tied to it, immediately and permanently. Or email us

and we'll do it for you.

Children

StarForge Arena is rated 9+ and does not knowingly collect personal

information from children under 13. Guest mode requires no information

at all.
