Echo Mates is developed by Vasiliy Privalov. This policy explains what information the game sends to us and how you can turn it off.

If "Send anonymous statistics" is on (Settings → Game; it is on by default), the game sends anonymous gameplay events:

• that the game was started (game version, build type, interface language);
  
• when a floor (depth) is started and how it ended (cleared, failed, crew wiped, left), how long it took and how many players were in the crew;
  
• what caused your character's death in the game (for example, which creature or trap);
  
• how a campaign ended (for example, the demo was completed).

Each installation of the game gets a random identifier created on your computer. It is not linked to your Steam account, Steam ID, nickname, e-mail or any other personal information, and we cannot use it to find out who you are.

If you use the "Do you like the game?" buttons or send feedback from the game menu, we receive your rating and the text you typed. Please do not include personal information in your feedback. If anonymous statistics are turned off, your rating and feedback are sent with a one-time identifier that is not linked to anything else.

We do not collect your Steam ID, your nickname, your voice, voice or text chat, screenshots or videos, your files, or payment information. Voice chat is sent only between the players in your game session and is not recorded or stored by us. IP addresses are discarded by our analytics service and are not stored.

We use this information only to improve the game: to see which parts are too hard or too easy, what players die from, and what players like or dislike. We do not sell it or use it for advertising.

The data is processed by PostHog (posthog.com) on servers in the United States. It is kept for no longer than 12 months.

Open Settings → Game and turn off "Send anonymous statistics". Events that have not been sent yet are deleted from your computer immediately. Ratings and feedback are only sent when you press the buttons yourself.
