Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how DEPTH ("we", "the game", "the site") collects, uses, and shares information when you play the game at this domain.

Information We Collect

• Account information: The username and hashed password you provide when registering. Passwords are hashed with PBKDF2 (100,000 iterations, SHA-256) before storage.
• Game progress: Your in-game money, upgrade counts, placed ores and similar progress data are saved server-side and tied to your username.
• Session tokens: When you log in we issue a random token used to keep you logged in. Tokens are stored locally in your browser and on the server for up to seven days.
• Connection metadata: Standard server logs may include IP address and request timestamps for normal operation and abuse prevention.

How We Use Information

• To authenticate you and persist your progress.
• To enable multiplayer features (showing other players, leaderboards, shared chat, etc.).
• To prevent abuse and ensure stable service.

Third-Party Services

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's ad settings or aboutads.info.

The game is hosted on Render; their infrastructure may log connection metadata as part of normal hosting operations.

Data Retention

Account records and game progress are kept while your account exists. Inactive sessions expire after 7 days. To request account deletion, contact the operator via the GitHub repository linked from the game footer.

Children's Privacy

The game is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
