Privacy policy

1. The email list

If you sign up on this site, we store your email address, the language of the page, which form you used and the time you gave consent.

We use it only to tell you about the My Friend Is Blind Playtest, the launch and major news about the game. The legal basis is your consent (GDPR art. 6(1)(a)).

The list is hosted by Brevo (France), which processes the data on our behalf inside the EU. Every email has an unsubscribe link; you can also write to us and we will delete your address. We keep it until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it.

If you arrive from a TikTok lead ad, TikTok passes us the email you entered in the ad form under the same terms.

2. The website

The site does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Fonts, images and the trailer are served from our own domain.

If analytics are enabled, we use Plausible Analytics: cookieless and privacy-friendly. It counts page views and clicks on the Steam and Discord buttons in aggregate, and stores no IP addresses or personal identifiers.

Our hosting provider processes technical data such as your IP address in server logs to deliver the pages and protect the service.

The “Get the game” section embeds Valve's Steam store widget. Loading it connects you to Steam, which may set its own cookies under Valve's privacy policy.

The paid-campaign page /beta loads the TikTok Pixel to measure ad performance. The rest of the site does not.

3. The game

The game signs players in anonymously through Supabase: a random account ID is created on your device. We do not ask for your name, email or Steam profile to play.

Supabase also stores lobby data (the room code, the two players' roles and ready states) and the signalling needed to connect the two players.

Game traffic between the two players travels peer-to-peer (WebRTC). When a direct connection is not possible, it is relayed by Cloudflare's TURN service; your IP address is processed for that purpose only, for the length of the session.

The game logs anonymous gameplay telemetry for each attempt (for example the level, the outcome, timings and connection quality) to balance the levels. It is tied to the anonymous ID, not to you.

Voice is not part of the game: you talk on Discord or another call, under that service's own policy.

Purchases, playtest access and your Steam account are handled by Valve under the Steam privacy policy.

4. Your rights

You can ask to access, correct or delete your data, withdraw consent at any time, or object to processing, by writing to myfriendisblind.game@gmail.com. You also have the right to complain to your data protection authority (in Italy, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali).
