Privacy policy
This policy explains what information Plane Stupid 2.0 (the "game") and this website use, and why. The game and this website are made by Zurg Gaming Corp ("we", "us"). If you have a question, contact us at tylerxlandry@gmail.com.
In short: we don't run servers of our own, we don't show ads, and we don't sell or share your information for advertising. The online features run on Epic Online Services, operated by Epic Games.
Playing online
When you start the game, it signs in to Epic Online Services so you can play with others. It does this in one of two ways.
- Without an Epic Games account (the default): Epic creates an anonymous player ID for your Windows user on your computer. The game sends Epic your player name with it. Unless you've changed it, your player name is your Windows user name.
- With an Epic Games account (optional, if you choose to sign in): you sign in on Epic's own website, never in the game, so we never see your password. With your permission, Epic shares with the game your Epic display name, the friends on your Epic friends list who have also signed in to Plane Stupid 2.0 and agreed to share their friends list, and your online status. The game sets your status to show friends what you're doing (for example "Hosting a game - code K7QPX"), so they can join you.
Hosting and joining games
- When you host a game, the game creates a lobby on Epic Online Services carrying a five-letter join code and your player name, so friends can find it. Anyone using the game can find a lobby by its code. The lobby is removed when you stop hosting or quit.
- If you're signed in with Epic, you can invite Epic friends who play the game; they see an invite with your player name and the code.
- During a game, the other players see your player name, the character you picked, and your score.
- Game traffic between players runs over Epic Online Services' peer-to-peer connections: directly between the players' computers when their networks allow it, otherwise through Epic's relay servers. A direct connection means the other players' computers can see your IP address, as is usual for online games.
Epic Games
Epic Games processes the information above to run these online services. Epic's SDK, built into the game, also sends Epic technical information about how the services are working (for example, when a session starts). Information connected to your Epic Games account is covered by Epic's privacy policy. Epic may make some of this information available to us through its developer tools, which we use only to run the game and to help you if you contact us.
On your computer
The game keeps its settings (look speed, volume, your player name and character, the last code or address you joined) and log files in its own folder on your computer. The logs include your player ID and lobby details, to help find problems. They stay on your computer; we only see them if you send them to us.
This website
This website doesn't use cookies, analytics or trackers, and doesn't load anything from other websites. The company that hosts it may keep standard server logs (such as IP addresses and the pages requested) for security and to keep the site running.
Children
The game and this website are not directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has used the game's online features, contact us and we'll help remove the information.
Your choices
- You can play without signing in to an Epic Games account.
- You can sign out of Epic in the game's friends menu, which also makes the game forget your saved sign-in.
- You can remove Plane Stupid 2.0's access to your Epic Games account in your Epic account settings, under the apps you've connected.
- You can contact us to ask what information is linked to your player ID, or to have it deleted.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update it on this page and change the date at the top.
