3.3 Achievements & leaderboards

  • Your Steam persona name and scores may be visible to other players on global leaderboards.
  • We access this only through Valve’s Steamworks interface to display achievements, leaderboards, and related features. We do not store this data on our own systems.

Under the GDPR you have the right to access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), restriction (Art. 18), portability (Art. 20), and objection (Art. 21).
