Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how StarRupture.net handles information when you use our website. We aim to keep this simple, honest, and beginner-friendly.

1) What this site is

StarRupture.net is an unofficial guides & troubleshooting site for the game StarRupture. We do not require accounts to read most content.

2) Information we may collect

Basic usage data (server logs)

Like most websites, our hosting provider may log technical information such as IP address, device/browser type, pages visited, and timestamps for security and performance.

Information you choose to send

If you contact us (e.g., via Contact), we'll receive what you submit (like your email and message content).

3) Cookies, ads, and third-party partners

We may use third-party advertising services such as Google AdSense to show ads. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads.

Google AdSense disclosure (required)
  • Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

4) Personalized vs non-personalized ads

Depending on your region and settings, ads may be personalized (based on activity) or non-personalized (more contextual). Non-personalized ads are generally based on context such as the content you're viewing and coarse location (e.g., city-level).

5) Your choices & controls

Ad personalization controls

You can manage ad personalization in your Google account: Google Ad Center / Ad Settings.

Cookies in your browser

Most browsers let you delete cookies, block certain cookies, or set rules per site. Blocking cookies may affect how ads are shown or measured.

6) Links to other sites

Our pages may link to third-party websites (e.g., official announcements, community resources). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.

7) Data retention

We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described above (e.g., responding to messages, preventing abuse, or maintaining site security), unless a longer retention period is required by law.

8) Your privacy rights (location-dependent)

Depending on where you live, you may have rights such as access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction, or objection to processing. If you want to make a request, contact us via Contact.

California residents may have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, where applicable.

9) Children's privacy

This site is not intended for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
