abetted.xyz ("we," "us," or "our") operates a sci-fi first-person shooter (FPS) game platform focused on fast-paced multiplayer battles, futuristic weaponry, and team-based objectives. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, disclosure, and protection of your information when you use our website, games, and related services (the "Services"). By accessing the Services, you acknowledge and agree to this policy.
1. Information Collection
Personal Information: Account registration requires your email address, username, and hashed password. Optional information includes your preferred game mode (e.g., deathmatch, capture the flag) and weapon class. For in-game purchases (e.g., weapon skins, character armor, battle passes), we collect payment information through third-party processors (PayPal, Stripe), which are not stored on our servers.
Gameplay & Technical Data: We automatically collect match statistics (e.g., kills, assists, win rates), weapon usage data, map performance metrics, device specifications (model, OS, network speed), IP address, and session duration. We also track team composition and objective completion rates to optimize map design and balance gameplay.
Cookies & Similar Tools: Essential cookies enable account login, save loadout preferences, and store match history. Non-essential cookies (for analytics via Mixpanel) are used to measure user engagement and identify popular game modes, with your consent.
2. Use of Information
To register and manage your account, authenticate access, and deliver the Services (e.g., multiplayer matchmaking, leaderboard updates).
To process purchases, unlock premium content, and resolve payment-related issues.
To analyze gameplay data to adjust weapon balance, fix bugs (e.g., hitbox glitches), and develop new maps or game modes.
To communicate with you (e.g., tournament notifications, battle pass updates, support responses) via email or in-app messages.
To enforce our Terms of Service and prevent cheating (e.g., aimbots, wallhacks) using anti-cheat software.
3. Information DisclosureWe do not rent or sell your personal information. We may share information:
With third-party service providers (e.g., cloud hosting via Google Cloud, anti-cheat providers, analytics tools) that assist in delivering the Services, bound by confidentiality agreements.
In response to legal requests (e.g., court orders, subpoenas) or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public.
In connection with a business transfer (e.g., merger, acquisition) where your information is transferred as part of the assets, with prior notice to you.
4. User Rights & Controls
You can access, edit, or delete your personal information via your account dashboard. For permanent account deletion, contact [email protected].
You can manage cookie settings through your browser (disabling non-essential cookies will not impact core Service functionality).
You may opt out of marketing emails by clicking "unsubscribe" or adjusting notification preferences in your account.
5. Security & RetentionWe use industry-standard security measures (end-to-end encryption, secure servers, regular security audits) to protect your information from unauthorized access or disclosure. We retain personal information for as long as your account is active or as required by law. Gameplay data is retained for 18 months after account deletion to maintain leaderboard history and anti-cheat records.
6. Children’s PrivacyThe Services are intended for users aged 16 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we discover such collection, we will delete the data immediately. Parents/guardians may contact us to request verification or deletion of their child’s information.
7. Policy UpdatesWe may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Your continued use of the Services after the update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
