PRIVACY & COOKIES

YOUR PRIVACY.

Who is responsible?

Vertical Sword, an independent game studio based in the Netherlands, is responsible for personal data processed through this website. For privacy questions, formal notices, or requests concerning your data, contact:

What this website collects

This is an informational website. It has no user accounts, contact forms, checkout, comments, advertising, or audience analytics. We do not intentionally collect profile, payment, or marketing data through the site.

Like most websites, our hosting and security providers may process limited technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, such as an IP address, request time, requested page, browser information, and security signals. This processing is based on our legitimate interest in providing a secure and reliable website.

When you contact us

If you email us, we process your email address, message, and any information you choose to include so we can respond and manage the conversation. Depending on the request, this is based on our legitimate interests or on steps taken at your request before entering into an agreement. We keep correspondence only for as long as reasonably necessary for the conversation, our business records, or legal obligations.

Cookies and similar technologies

We do not use advertising, tracking, preference, or audience-analytics cookies. A consent banner is therefore not shown. Our hosting and security providers may use strictly necessary technologies to deliver the site, prevent abuse, and maintain security. These cannot be used by us to build advertising profiles.

Service providers and transfers

We use service providers for website hosting, content delivery, domain name services, security, and email. They may process limited personal data on our behalf only as needed to provide those services. Where data is processed outside the European Economic Area, the provider must use an applicable legal transfer safeguard.

Your rights

Subject to the conditions in applicable data-protection law, you may ask for access to, correction of, deletion of, restriction of, or portability of your personal data, and you may object to certain processing. You may also lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

To make a request—including a data deletion request—email us. We may need to verify that the request relates to you before acting on it.
