Authentication Through Epic Online Services

How We Authenticate You

Our games use Epic Online Services (EOS) for player authentication and online multiplayer features. When you play our games, you log in through one of the following methods:

• Epic Games Account
• Steam Account
• Google Account

What Epic Online Services Collects

When you authenticate through EOS, Epic Games collects and processes certain information such as your account ID, display name, and authentication tokens. This information is handled directly by Epic Games in accordance with their Privacy Policy.

What We Receive From EOS

We only receive your display name and a unique anonymous user ID from Epic Online Services to show your name in-game and enable multiplayer features. We do not have access to your email address, password, or any other personal information associated with your Epic Games, Steam, or Google accounts.

No Account Registration

We do not maintain our own account system and do not require you to create a separate account with us. All authentication is handled securely through Epic Online Services and the third-party platform you choose.

Information We Collect Through Our Games

Our games may collect limited technical data to provide online multiplayer functionality, such as:

• Your display name (provided by EOS)

Our games may automatically upload anonymized technical data to Unity Technologies ("Unity"), such as crash reports or performance metrics, that we use to fix bugs and improve game quality. Such data contains no personally identifiable information and cannot be traced to any specific user. For more information on Unity's data practices, refer to their privacy policy.
