Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains what information Rustypot.com (the "Website") collects when you use it, how that information is used, and the choices you have. By using the Website you agree to the collection and use of information as described here. This policy forms part of our Terms of Service.

Information We Collect

Steam account information. When you sign in through Steam we receive your public Steam profile, including your SteamID, display name and avatar. We never receive or store your Steam password.

Trade and inventory information. Your Steam trade URL, the items in your inventory that you choose to deposit, and the items you deposit, win or withdraw.

Activity on the Website. The games you play, your bets, winnings, Grub Bucks and Points balances and transactions, and the messages you send in chat.

Technical information. Your IP address, the country and region it is located in, your browser and device type, and similar information sent automatically when you visit the Website.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to run your account and the games, send and receive trade offers, verify your account, provide customer support, enforce our Terms of Service and region restrictions, detect and prevent fraud, abuse and multi-accounting, and improve the Website.

Public Information

Some information is shown publicly on the Website by design. Your Steam display name and avatar appear alongside your games, deposits, winnings and game history, and messages you send in chat are visible to other users. Please do not share personal information in chat.

Cookies & Local Storage

We use a session cookie to keep you signed in. This cookie is required for the Website to work. We also store your preferences, such as sound and coinflip settings, in your browser's local storage. These preferences stay on your device and you can clear them at any time through your browser.

Third-Party Services

We rely on a small number of third parties to run the Website, and they may process your information under their own privacy policies:

Steam (Valve Corporation) for sign in, inventories and trade offers. Cloudflare for hosting, and security. hCaptcha to protect against bots. Random.org to generate game outcomes, which does not receive any of your personal information.

We do not sell your personal information.

Data Retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active and as long afterwards as needed to provide support, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, enforce our terms and meet our legal obligations. Game history may be kept so that rounds remain provably fair and verifiable.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Keep your Steam account secure and never share your login details with anyone.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to object to how it is used. To make a request, contact us at [email protected]. Some information may need to be kept where required for legal reasons or fraud prevention.

Age Requirement

The Website is only for users aged 18 or over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn that we have, we will close the account and delete the information.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect as soon as they are posted on this page, and continuing to use the Website after a change means you accept the updated policy.
