Privacy: the sign-up list
This page explains what happens to your details when you join the Treasury of Lies email list. In short: we keep as little as we can, we never sell it, and you can leave at any time.
Who we are
Treasury of Lies is an independent game in development. For anything about your data, write to privacy@treasuryoflies.com.
What we collect
Your email address and your tick in the consent box (with the date and the wording you agreed to). If you choose to answer them: your age band and your favourite similar game. We also note the page language, your country (a two-letter code worked out from your connection, never your town or address), the date, and which of our three taglines the page showed you.
Why
To send you news about the game and invites to playtests, which you asked for by ticking the box (consent, GDPR Article 6(1)(a)). The optional answers and the tagline help us understand who is interested and which description works best. We only look at those as totals.
What we do not collect
No cookies, no tracking scripts, no advertising. We do not store your IP address. To stop spam, the server turns your connection address into a scrambled code for one hour to count sign-up attempts, then throws it away. The page counts how many times each tagline was shown, as plain totals with nothing about you.
Where it is kept
In a database run by Cloudflare (our hosting provider, acting on our behalf) in Western Europe. When we start sending emails we will use an email service and name it here before the first email goes out.
How long
Until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. If the game is cancelled, we delete the whole list.
How to leave or delete your details
Every email we send has an unsubscribe link. Using it deletes your whole entry at once, not just a "do not send" mark. You can also write to privacy@treasuryoflies.com to see, correct or delete what we hold.
Your rights
You may ask to see, correct or delete your data, take back your consent at any time, and complain to a data protection authority (in the UK the ICO, in Germany the authority for your state).
