Privacy Policy

Effective July 22, 2026.

The site uses Steam login to identify your account and may store SteamID64, nickname, avatar URL, profile URL and country code when available.

Gameplay stats, seasons, leaderboards, supporter payment records and cosmetic entitlements may be stored or fetched through Chop and Mine services.

Xsolla processes checkout and billing. When checkout starts, Chop and Mine securely forwards your current IP address to Xsolla so it can determine regional payment availability and apply fraud controls; the IP address is not stored in the local payment order. Chop and Mine stores provider transaction, subscription and order references, amount, currency, status and the SteamID64 needed to deliver or revoke entitlements. Chop and Mine does not receive or store full payment-card details.

Processed Xsolla webhook payload copies are redacted from the live database after 60 days. Encrypted database backups are retained for up to 30 additional days, so a pre-redaction backup copy can remain for no more than approximately 90 days. Core order, entitlement and audit identifiers may be retained longer where needed for account support, fraud prevention, accounting, dispute handling and reliable duplicate detection.

Secrets such as API tokens, webhook keys and payment credentials are kept server-side and are not exposed to the browser.
