Where

All data is stored in Microsoft Azure, region Switzerland North. Confirmation emails are sent through Azure Communication Services. No analytics, no advertising, no third-party scripts; the only outside request your browser makes is an optional check of your new password against a public list of breached passwords, which sends five characters of a hash and nothing else.

Your rights

Access, correction, export and deletion: in Settings as the features arrive, and by email at any time. Complaints go to the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner or your local authority.

When the game opens

Raid recordings, breach notes and the logs of your app add new rows to this table. They are described in a new version of this notice before the first raid week, and you are asked again before your app can be raided.
