Who we are and what this covers
Companion Baduk is the developer and publisher name for the Companion Baduk game and the operator of this promotional website. For privacy questions or requests, contact companionbaduk@gmail.com.
This policy covers this website and information the Companion Baduk developer receives through support. Steam, our website infrastructure providers, and email providers process information under their own policies.
Information from the game
The game does not automatically transmit gameplay analytics, crash reports, or diagnostic logs to the developer. There is no online multiplayer service. Game settings, progress, and diagnostic files can exist on your device; these are not automatically sent to us.
Steam may process account, purchase, device, playtime, or other platform information independently. Platform data is governed by Valve’s policies; the statements above concern reporting to the Companion Baduk developer.
Information from this website
The website itself does not use analytics scripts, advertising pixels, tracking cookies, browser fingerprinting, or browser storage. Images and site assets are served with the website; no Steam video, store widget, or other third-party media is embedded.
Serving and securing any website involves network processing. Hosting and delivery providers may process your IP address, requested URL, browser or device information, timestamps, and security or error information to deliver pages, prevent abuse, and diagnose service problems. Hosting infrastructure may also use necessary security or access cookies. Infrastructure logging and retention are controlled by the hosting provider and are separate from the game.
Ordinary links to Steam do not load Steam content into this page. When you follow a link, the destination receives the information associated with your visit and its own privacy policy applies.
Email support and optional logs
If you email us, we receive your email address, the contents of your message, and any attachments you choose to send. We use this information to reply, investigate the issue, fix bugs, and handle your request. Support is handled through Gmail, so Google processes messages as our email provider.
Logs are optional. We do not remotely retrieve them. Diagnostic files may contain device details, game activity, local file paths, operating-system usernames, or other information depending on the problem. Review and remove sensitive details before sending them. Do not send passwords, payment information, authentication tokens, or unrelated personal information.
You can ask for help without attaching a log. If a log would help investigate, we may ask you to provide one; you decide whether to send it.
Use, sharing, and retention
We use information you send to provide support, troubleshoot the game or website, respond to privacy requests, protect the service from abuse, and meet applicable legal obligations. We do not use support messages for advertising, and we do not sell or rent personal information.
Information may be processed by our email and hosting providers as needed to operate those services, or disclosed where lawfully required. These providers may process data outside your country. Providers’ processing locations, safeguards, infrastructure logs, and backup retention depend on their own services and policies.
Support correspondence and attachments are kept only for as long as reasonably needed to address the issue, follow up, and satisfy legal or security requirements. A specific retention period is not guaranteed. You may request deletion; provider backups or legally required records may remain subject to their applicable retention schedules.
Your choices and rights
You can choose not to contact us, decline to send logs, or request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you have sent us. Depending on your location and applicable law, you may also have rights to restrict or object to processing, obtain a portable copy, withdraw consent, or complain to your local privacy regulator. Where applicable, support processing is based on responding to your request, our legitimate interest in resolving problems and maintaining security, your choice to share optional information, or legal obligations.
Send requests to companionbaduk@gmail.com, ideally from the address used to contact support. We may need reasonable information to verify the request. Do not send identity documents unless a lawful verification need is explained. Some requests may be limited by law or the rights of others. Requests about your Steam account or platform data should go to Valve.
Children and privacy
This website does not offer accounts, public posting, or forms and does not knowingly seek personal information from children. A parent or guardian should help a child contact support and review any attached logs. If you believe a child has sent personal information that should be removed, contact us.
Security and policy changes
No website, device, or email service can guarantee absolute security. Share only the information needed to explain your issue. We may revise this policy when our practices or services change; the date on this page identifies the latest revision. New data collection would need to be described before it is introduced, with any notice or consent required by law.
