Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 9, 2026

Echoveil is developed and operated by Clearline Tech Methods LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect when you use the Echoveil app, how we use it, and what choices you have.

We built Echoveil for players, not advertisers. We collect only what we need to make the game work and keep your progress safe.

What We Collect

When you use Echoveil, we may collect:

Device identifier — a random ID generated on install, used to sync your characters and campaign progress. We do not collect your name, email, or Apple ID unless you choose to sign in.
Game data — characters, campaigns, choices, and AI conversation history, stored so the game can remember your story across sessions.
Crash reports and performance data — anonymous diagnostic information used to fix bugs. This data cannot identify you personally.
Purchase records — if you make an in-app purchase, Apple processes the transaction. We receive only a receipt token to verify your purchase; we do not see your payment details.

What We Don't Collect

The beta-interest form collects the name and email address you choose to provide. We do not request a phone number in that form.
We do not sell your data to third parties.
We do not use your data to serve you ads.
We do not share your story or gameplay choices with anyone outside the app.

Beta-Interest Registration

The website form collects your first name, last name, and email address to register interest in future beta access. The handler stores your combined name, email address, and submission timestamp locally and sends a notification through Resend to the Echoveil team. Registering interest does not guarantee an invitation or immediate access. Beta-interest details are separate from website analytics.

Website Analytics

Our self-hosted Plausible service measures page views and beta-interest link clicks through a same-origin relay. The relay sends only an allowed event name, public page path, fixed site identity, and an optional origin from a limited search/AI-referrer list. It does not forward cookies, client IP addresses, browser identifiers, query strings, full referrer URLs, or signup details. The tracker honors Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. A beta-interest click measures intent, not a completed signup or access to the game.

AI Game Master

Echoveil uses an AI-powered game master to generate narrative responses and remember your campaign history. Your in-game choices and AI conversation history are processed to deliver this experience. This data is stored on our servers and used only to run your game. We do not use your gameplay data to train external AI models.

Data Storage and Security

Your game data is stored on servers in the United States. We use industry-standard security practices to protect it. Your device identifier and campaign data are retained for as long as you have the app installed. You can delete your data at any time by contacting us.

Children's Privacy

Echoveil is rated 12+ and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Your Rights

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your data at any time. To do so, email us at privacy@echoveil.gg. We will respond within 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

If we make significant changes to this policy, we will update the effective date above and, where appropriate, notify you in-app. Continued use of Echoveil after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
