This Privacy Policy explains how CrushTheCompetition ("we," "us," "our")
captures, uses, shares, and retains information when you play the game
CrushTheCompetition (the "Game"). By using the Game's online features, you
consent to the practices described below.
1. How We Capture Data
We capture data in the following ways:
Account authentication: When you log in, Epic Online
Services (EOS) provides us with a unique account identifier (Account ID /
Product User ID) and your display name. This is captured automatically when
you authenticate through Epic.
Networking data: When you host or join an online
session, we automatically capture connection information (such as your
network/peer address and session membership) needed to establish gameplay
between players.
Gameplay and voice data: If you use in-game voice chat,
audio is captured from your microphone and transmitted in real time through
EOS to other players in your session.
2. How We Use Data
We use the captured data solely to operate the Game's features, including:
Authenticating your identity and signing you in to online services
Creating, finding, and joining multiplayer sessions (matchmaking)
Maintaining real-time network connections between players
Enabling voice communication during multiplayer sessions
Displaying player names to others in the same session
We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell your personal
information.
3. How We Share Data
We share data only as necessary to provide online play:
With Epic Games: Authentication, sessions, and voice
chat are processed through Epic Online Services. Your use of these features
is also governed by Epic Games' Privacy Policy
(epicgames.com/site/privacypolicy).
With other players: Your display name and in-session
connection/voice data are shared with other players in the same multiplayer
session so that gameplay can function.
We do not share your data with any third parties for marketing purposes.
4. How We Retain Data
Connection, session, and voice data is transient: it exists only for the
duration of an active multiplayer session and is not stored on our servers
after the session ends. We do not maintain our own database of personal
information. Account identifiers handled by Epic Online Services are retained by
Epic in accordance with Epic's own data retention policies.
5. Children's Privacy
The Game is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly
capture, use, share, or retain personal information from children under 13. If
you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will remove it.
6. Your Choices
You may stop all data capture by not using the Game's online features.
Microphone/voice data is only captured when voice chat is enabled.
