GLORY GROUNDZ PRIVACY POLICY

1. Information we process

GeneUs Labz LLC operates Glory Groundz. We process the email address and authentication information used to create and secure an account; your chosen Player Legacy name, handle, avatar, gaming identities and profile details; House and Division membership, roles, recruiting, and related requests; Challenges, Match rosters, Match Room communications, proof files and links, results, disputes, reviews, Match Receipts, eligible Bounty records, and Positive Honor records. Skill is not currently live.

We also process notifications, beta feedback and limited diagnostic context, beta invite or Open Beta admission and source/referrer details, waitlist email addresses, security and application logs, and minimal beta-usage events. A waitlist email is for the beta-access notice requested, not general marketing permission.

At signup or a later legal gate, we process date of birth to calculate a self-reported age band. We retain the band, policy version and attestation time, not your raw date of birth in the legal record. We retain a U.S.-residency attestation, not geolocation proof, and a guardian-permission attestation for 13–17-year-olds. These self-reports do not verify identity or eligibility for any future money play.

2. Sources and purposes

Information comes from you, other players who interact with you, the Matches and Houses in which you participate, connected services you choose to authorize, and operational systems. We use it to provide accounts, discovery, competition, proof and review, House features, notifications, account recovery, beta access, support, security, abuse prevention, and limited product improvement. We use a separate optional preference for promotional email; account notices, password resets, security messages, material policy changes, and requested beta-access notices are service communications rather than promotional opt-ins.

3. Public, shared, and private information

Chosen names, handles, selected profile/identity details, House information, public Challenges, and verified competitive records can be visible to other players or visitors. Match communications and proof are limited to the relevant participants and authorized reviewers under the product’s access rules. Bounty reports can have additional opposing-report privacy before resolution. Email, legal attestations, marketing choices, waitlist entries, provider credentials, and internal feedback are not public profile fields. Do not post private information in public text, images, or links.

4. Connected accounts and providers

Self-reported gaming identities are unverified. If you connect Twitch or Kick, we process provider identifiers, display details, authorization data, and encrypted credentials needed for that connection. Twitch may support optional live presence; Kick is an identity connection, not a live-discovery feed. You can disconnect through the product, subject to provider-side revocation and safe cleanup. The provider may separately process data under its own policy.

Supabase provides authentication, database, and private storage services. Vercel hosts and serves the application. Twitch and Kick are involved only if you choose the relevant connection. These providers may process information needed to deliver those functions. We may also disclose information when required to address valid legal requests, security incidents, or abuse; we do not promise that information is never shared. We do not claim any publisher relationship.

5. Cookies, retention, and security

Session cookies keep you signed in; operational request logs and beta instrumentation help us maintain and protect the service. The current application does not implement a separate Do Not Track response. We do not use an in-app advertising tracker in this beta. Browser or hosting infrastructure may still process technical request data.

We retain information while needed for accounts, competition records, safety, dispute review, and operational or legal obligations. A deletion request starts a review; it does not instantly erase a Match Receipt or another player’s record. We review which data can be removed, de-identified, or must be retained before acting. We use access controls, row-level security, and private storage for protected data, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.

6. Choices, minors, and changes

Glory Groundz general access is for people age 13 or older. Users age 13–17 need parent or guardian permission for non-money use. We do not permit under-13 accounts. The beta currently asks users to attest to U.S. residency. No current account eligibility authorizes future participant-funded competition.

You can edit available profile information and connected identities in the product, turn marketing email on or off in Account & privacy, and request account/data deletion there. Promotional email consent is optional and off by default; each promotional email sender must provide its own unsubscribe mechanism before campaigns begin. If you cannot access your account, try password recovery. We may update this policy, show a new version and request acknowledgement when needed.

7. Contact

For privacy questions or account-access problems, contact GeneUs Labz LLC at marlonmerritt@geneuslabz.dev. This contact does not require sign-in. Signed-in players can also use Beta Feedback or Account & privacy for a deletion request.
