How we handle your data at Stick Crisis

Last updated: September 2026

Overview

Stick Crisis is a game developed by VMRam95. This landing page allows you to learn about the game, view changelogs, and subscribe to our newsletter. We are committed to keeping your data minimal and your privacy protected.

Data Controller

The data controller responsible for your personal data on this website is VMRam95, an independent developer. For any data-related inquiries, you can contact us at info@stickcrisis.com.

Data We Collect

We collect your email address when you voluntarily subscribe to the newsletter. If you submit feedback on the website, we store its type, description and optional email. Feedback sent from the game may also include the game and Unity versions, platform, resolution, operating system, language and, for bug reports, up to 100 recent technical log lines. With your analytics consent, the website records random session and visitor identifiers, page and title, referrer, UTM parameters, device type, browser, operating system, resolution, locale and approximate location (country, region, city and timezone) derived by Vercel from the connection. We do not store the IP address in the analytics table. You can manage cookies from the footer.

How We Use Your Data

We use your email to send the newsletter or reply to your feedback; feedback and its technical details to investigate problems and improve the game; and optional analytics to measure website use and aggregate campaign effectiveness. We never sell or rent your data or share your email with third parties for marketing purposes.

Legal Basis for Processing

The newsletter and optional analytics rely on your consent, withdrawn through the unsubscribe link or Manage Cookies. Handling voluntary feedback and preventing abuse rely on our legitimate interests in answering enquiries, improving the game and keeping the service secure; you may object on grounds relating to your situation. Neither subscribing nor accepting analytics is required to browse. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing.

Data Storage

Newsletter, feedback and our own analytics data are stored in PostgreSQL on Supabase. Vercel hosts the website, processes requests and provides the approximate location used by consented analytics. Google also processes data for its optional analytics and the YouTube player when you activate it. Email providers process addresses, messages and logs needed for delivery. We apply access controls; no Internet service is risk-free.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services to operate this website:

  • ▸Supabase — Database for subscribers, feedback and consented analytics.
  • ▸Self-hosted email service and SMTP provider — Newsletter, welcome and feedback confirmation emails, plus administrator notifications containing enquiry data.
  • ▸Vercel — Website hosting, deployment and approximate request location.
  • ▸Google Analytics (Google) — Measures visits and interactions only if you accept analytics. We do not enable Google signals or advertising personalisation.
  • ▸YouTube (Google) — External player in privacy-enhanced mode, loaded only when you press play. Google then receives connection data and may process video usage data.

These providers may process data outside the European Economic Area. Ask info@stickcrisis.com for information on recipients, locations and applicable safeguards. Their policies do not replace our obligations as controller. Links to Steam and social networks lead to external services with their own terms.

Cookies and browser storage

Analytics is off by default. Accepting and rejecting have equal visibility, and you can change your choice through Manage Cookies. We use cookies and similar technologies:

  • sc-cookie-consent — Our necessary localStorage entry: category choice, version and date. Valid for 365 days; a new choice is requested afterwards. Legacy unversioned permissions are also renewed.
  • NEXT_LOCALE — Our session cookie for language. theme — Our appearance preference in localStorage, kept until changed or browser data is cleared. Neither measures visits.
  • sc-visitor-id and sc-session-id — Our optional analytics identifiers. The first persists between visits and the second lasts for the tab's session. Removed on withdrawal or when consent expiry is detected.
  • _ga and _ga_* — Google Analytics cookies distinguishing visitors and sessions. Configured for at most 365 days, without automatically renewing on each visit. We attempt to remove them on withdrawal; you can also clear them in your browser.
  • YouTube — Loaded separately when you play the trailer, not when you accept analytics. Its external player may use its own storage; stop it by leaving the page and manage its storage through your browser.
Google — Privacy Policy

Your Rights

Under applicable data protection regulations, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • ▸Right of Access — You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
  • ▸Right to Rectification — You can request correction of inaccurate personal data.
  • ▸Erasure — You may request deletion where applicable. Exceptions may apply for legal obligations or the defence of claims.
  • ▸Portability — For automated processing based on consent or contract, you may request the data you provided in a structured, machine-readable format.
  • ▸Objection — You may object to processing based on legitimate interests on grounds relating to your situation.
  • ▸Restriction — You may request restricted processing in the circumstances set out in the GDPR.
  • ▸Withdraw consent — Without retroactive effect: unsubscribe through any newsletter email or change analytics in Manage Cookies.
  • ▸Complaint — You may contact the Spanish Data Protection Agency (aepd.es) or the competent supervisory authority.

Data Retention

The newsletter continues while your subscription is active. Unsubscribing stops messages but does not automatically delete the inactive record; you may request erasure. The need to retain feedback depends on resolving the enquiry, following up on the issue and potential claims. Analytics is retained according to the need to measure the service; withdrawing permission stops new measurements but does not automatically erase earlier records. We do not promise an automatic database purge: ask info@stickcrisis.com about retention of your data or to request erasure. Retention must be limited to what is necessary and any applicable legal obligations.

Children's Privacy

The website is not directed at children. In Spain, where processing relies on consent, children under 14 need consent from their legal representatives, except as provided by law. Do not send personal data or enable optional services without the authorisation that applies. If you believe we received a child's data without valid authorisation, contact info@stickcrisis.com so we can review it and take appropriate action.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.

Contact

For privacy enquiries or data rights requests, email info@stickcrisis.com and describe your request. We may ask for proportionate information to verify your identity. We respond within GDPR time limits: normally one month, with a possible justified extension of up to two further months, which we will tell you about.
