To play Unreal Skipper, you only need an Epic Games account. We do not create or manage a separate account for you on our side, and we do not ask you to provide additional personal details directly to us.

4. Data we use

We only use a limited set of data, mainly coming from your Epic Games account and your activity in the game:

• Epic Games account data (via Epic)
  Basic identifiers provided by Epic Games (for example: your Epic ID and/or display name) so that you can connect to the game and we can link your game progress and statistics to your account.
• In-game data and statistics
  Gameplay information such as scores, progression, performance, rankings, playtime, and other game statistics, including information about teams and game modes you join or create.
• Chat and team communications
  Messages you send in in-game chat and information about the teams you are part of. This content is visible to other players according to the game’s features. Please do not share sensitive personal information about yourself or others in chat or team names.

We do not collect additional personal information beyond what is necessary to make the game and its features (including statistics, chat, and teams) work.

5. Website cookies

Our website does not use cookies or similar tracking technologies for analytics or advertising. There are no Google Analytics, advertising trackers, or marketing cookies. Other services such as the Epic Games Store or your browser may use their own cookies according to their own policies.

7. Why we use your data

We use the data described above for the following purposes:

• To operate the game
  Let you log in via your Epic Games account, run core features such as matchmaking, teams, and chat, and record and display your progression, scores, and statistics.
• To provide statistics and rankings
  Generate in-game statistics, leaderboards, and other performance information, and understand how players use the game (in an aggregated way) to improve balance and features.
• To maintain security and prevent abuse
  Protect the game and servers against cheating, abuse, or technical issues, and detect and respond to problems, bugs, and possible misuse.

We do not use your data for advertising or targeted marketing.

8. Legal bases (EU/EEA)

When you are located in the European Union or EEA, we process your personal data based on:

• Performance of a contract: to provide you access to Unreal Skipper and its features when you choose to play the game.
• Legitimate interests: to maintain and improve the game, produce statistics, and protect the service from abuse, in ways that respect your rights and expectations.

9. Data sharing

We do not sell your personal data and we do not share your personal data with third parties for their own marketing or advertising purposes.

Your data may be processed by Epic Games, as part of your Epic Games account and the distribution of the game, and by technical service providers that host our servers or provide infrastructure, strictly for operating the game and only as necessary. These providers are required to protect your data and use it only according to our instructions and applicable law.

10. Data retention

We keep your in-game data only as long as it is necessary to provide you with access to Unreal Skipper and its features, and to maintain the security and stability of the game. If Unreal Skipper is discontinued or if data is no longer needed for these purposes, we will delete it or properly anonymize it.

11. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including HTTPS and token-based authentication between the game and our API, limiting access to data to authorized personnel only, and using industry-standard practices to store and handle data securely. No online service can be 100% secure, but we work to protect your information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.

12. Children and minors

Unreal Skipper is intended for a general audience and does not have a specific minimum age requirement. We do not knowingly collect additional personal data directly from children outside of what is processed through Epic Games. If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe we may have collected personal data about your child in a way that concerns you, please contact us at unreal.skipper@gmail.com so we can review and, if appropriate, delete the data.

Depending on your location (for example, in the EU/EEA under the GDPR), you may have the following rights regarding your personal data: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, and portability. To exercise these rights, please contact us at unreal.skipper@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity and may redirect certain requests to Epic Games when they concern your Epic Games account. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority (for example, the CNIL in France).
