Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Seneku Design ("we", "us", "our") handles information in connection with our game Vectorhythm and this website (seneku.dev).

The short version

• Vectorhythm does not run our own servers and does not include third-party analytics, advertising, or account systems.
• All online features — leaderboards, achievements, Cloud saves, friends / rich presence and optional replay uploads — are provided through Steam (Valve), and the data involved is processed by Valve under Steam's own privacy policy.
• We do not sell your personal information.

The game: Vectorhythm

Vectorhythm is distributed and played through Steam. To provide its online features, the game uses Valve's Steamworks platform. Depending on the features you use, the following information may be processed by Valve on your behalf:

• Steam account identifiers — your Steam ID and public persona (display) name, used to identify you on leaderboards and to your friends.
• Leaderboard entries — your scores and related run statistics (for example accuracy, hit counts, best combo and run time) for Arcade tracks, Survivors runs and daily challenges. Leaderboard entries, including your Steam persona name, are visible to other players.
• Achievements and statistics — your progress toward in-game achievements.
• Saved data (Steam Cloud) — your settings, high scores and progression, synced through Steam Cloud so they follow your account between devices.
• Rich presence — a status such as "Playing Arcade Mode" that Steam can show to your friends.
• Replays (optional) — if you choose to attach a replay to a leaderboard entry, the replay data is uploaded through Steam's user-generated-content (UGC) system so others can view it.

This information is handled by Valve Corporation as part of the Steam platform. Your use of Steam is governed by the Steam Privacy Policy and the Steam Subscriber Agreement. We access this data only as needed to provide the game's features (for example, to read and display leaderboards).

We do not collect telemetry, run analytics, serve advertising, or operate any separate servers or accounts for Vectorhythm. Your settings, saves and replays are stored on your own device and in your Steam Cloud.

This website: seneku.dev

This is a static marketing site hosted on Vercel. We keep data collection to a minimum:

• Newsletter (optional). If you subscribe, your email address is collected and stored by our email provider, Buttondown, solely to send you occasional updates about our games. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
• Hosting logs. Our host, Vercel, may automatically process basic technical request data (such as IP address and browser type) to serve and secure the site, as is standard for any web server.
• No advertising or cross-site tracking. The site does not use advertising trackers or third-party analytics cookies.
• Outbound links. The site links to services such as Steam, Google Play and YouTube, which each have their own privacy policies.

Legal bases (EEA / UK)

Where the UK or EU General Data Protection Regulation applies, we rely on: the performance of a contract (providing game features you request, such as submitting a score); your consent (for example, subscribing to the newsletter or choosing to upload a replay); and our legitimate interests in operating and securing the game and website.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, and to object to certain processing.

• Most game-related data is held within Steam. You can manage much of it through your Steam account and privacy settings, or by contacting Valve. To remove a leaderboard entry, or for other game-specific requests, contact us and we will help where we are able.
• For the newsletter, use the unsubscribe link in any email, or contact us to have your email removed.

To exercise any of these rights, email us at senekudesign@gmail.com.

Children

Vectorhythm and this website are not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Steam accounts are subject to Valve's own age and family policies.

International transfers

Because online features are provided through Steam and this website is hosted by Vercel, your information may be processed on servers located in the United States and other countries. Those providers maintain their own safeguards for international data transfers.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above and post the new version on this page.
