Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 27, 2026
ORION is a free game at surviveorion.com and in the iOS app, run by its developer, Lucas Navilloz.
This page says exactly what the game collects, what it never collects, and how to reach us.
It is written to be read, not scrolled past.
The short version
You can play without an account. If you make one, we store your callsign and your scores.
We run no ads, no third-party analytics, and no tracking cookies, and we never sell or share
your data with anyone.
What we collect, and why
- Callsign and account data. If you create an account: your chosen
callsign, a salted hash of your password (never the password itself), and an optional
two-letter country code you pick for the leaderboard flag. If you sign in with Google, we
store the account identifier Google gives us instead of a password. Guest accounts are tied
to a secret stored only in your browser; we keep a hash of it.
- Gameplay results. Scores, survival times, kills, multipliers, badges,
daily-patrol results, arena and wingmate links. This is what leaderboards are made of.
- Feedback you send. The message, and your email only if you choose to
leave one for a reply. Crash reports sent through the feedback channel include technical
context about the error.
- Basic visit counts. Our own server counts visits with a truncated hash
of your IP address, the page path, referrer, platform, and country. Raw IP addresses are
never stored. There is no third-party analytics service. A random device id stored in your
browser lets us count return visits on our own server; it is first-party only, and no
third parties see it.
- Transient IP use. Your IP address is used in memory for rate limiting
and abuse prevention while you play, then discarded.
What never leaves your device: run recordings. If you turn on clip
recording, the video and its stats file are created in your browser and offered to you as
downloads. They are never uploaded, and we never see them. Your settings, control bindings
and local streaks also stay in your browser's storage.
Third parties
Two, and only when relevant to you:
- Google Sign-In, only if you use it, under
Google's privacy policy.
We receive your Google account identifier and name; we do not receive your password.
- Hosting. The game and its database run on Render, fronted by
Cloudflare, which process traffic to serve the site. Google Fonts serves the typeface.
Retention and deletion
Account and score data is kept while your account exists. To delete your account and its
scores, badges, and wingmates, open Pilot profile and tap Delete account. That takes effect
immediately. You can also use the in-game feedback form (Send feedback, on the game-over
screen or the daily lobby) and leave an email so we can confirm. Email requests are honoured
within 30 days.
Children
ORION is a general-audience arcade game. We do not knowingly collect personal information
from children under 13; accounts need nothing beyond a made-up callsign.
Changes
If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it, and material changes get a
notice in the game.
Contact
The in-game feedback form is the fastest route and reaches the developer directly.
