Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 13, 2026
Breakline Studios respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, retain, and share personal information when you visit https://breaklinegaming.com, use the Breakline Studios launcher, participate in BUNKERED playtests, or contact us.
Information We Collect
Information you provide
When you contact us, request support, or participate in a playtest, we may collect your name, email address, account identifier, and information you choose to include in messages, feedback, or bug reports.
Please do not send passwords, payment details, government identification numbers, or other sensitive information through contact forms or support messages.
Epic Games sign-in and playtest access
When you sign in through Epic Games, we receive account information authorized through Epic’s sign-in process. For our current sign-in and playtest access system, this includes your Epic account ID and display name.
We also maintain your playtest access status, such as pending, approved, or revoked, and records associated with managing that access.
Authentication credentials such as session tokens may be processed or stored to maintain your sign-in and authorize access to our services. We do not receive your Epic Games password. You enter that password directly through Epic’s authentication service.
The permissions requested by the application are displayed during Epic’s sign-in and consent process.
Technical and usage information
Our website, launcher, and online services may process technical information such as:
IP address, browser type, and device or operating system information.
Website pages visited and general website usage.
Launcher and game versions, connection activity, and diagnostic information.
Errors and logs used to investigate sign-in, installation, update, or connection problems.
The information available depends on the service you use and any diagnostic information you choose to provide.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
Authenticate players and maintain sign-in sessions.
Review, grant, manage, or revoke playtest access.
Authorize access to BUNKERED online services.
Provide launcher downloads, updates, and support.
Investigate bugs, connection problems, and reported issues.
Respond to inquiries and playtest feedback.
Maintain security, prevent abuse, and enforce access restrictions.
Improve our website, launcher, and game.
Meet applicable legal obligations and resolve disputes.
We do not sell personal information to advertisers.
How We Share Information
We may share information with service providers that support our website, email, hosting, authentication, downloads, and online services, as needed to operate those services.
Our website uses Squarespace. Epic Games provides Epic account authentication, and launcher downloads may be delivered through GitHub. These providers may process technical information when you interact with their services.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, protect users and our services, or investigate fraud or abuse.
Information may be disclosed as part of a merger, acquisition, or transfer of our business or assets, subject to applicable privacy requirements.
Epic Games and Other Third-Party Services
Your Epic Games account remains subject to Epic’s own terms and privacy policy:
https://legal.epicgames.com/epicgames/privacy-policy
Our website and services may also link to platforms such as Discord, YouTube, X, Steam, or other external services. Their privacy policies govern information they collect directly.
Deleting information held by Breakline Studios does not delete your Epic Games account or information independently held by another provider.
Cookies and Local Storage
Our website and its providers may use cookies or similar technologies for functionality, security, analytics, and performance.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings and any cookie controls available on our website. Blocking cookies may affect certain features.
The launcher may store settings, authentication information, and diagnostic files locally on your device to maintain sign-in and support its operation. Signing out or uninstalling the launcher does not by itself request deletion of records held on our servers.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy.
For player account and playtest records, we consider whether the information is needed to maintain access, administer the playtest, provide support, or enforce access restrictions. Revoking playtest access does not automatically delete the associated record.
For correspondence and diagnostic records, we consider whether information remains necessary to resolve inquiries, investigate issues, maintain security, or support business operations.
Some information may need to be retained longer to meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, or prevent fraud and abuse. Backup copies may remain until they are replaced or removed through backup maintenance.
Access, Correction, and Deletion Requests
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information held by Breakline Studios by emailing:
Use the subject “Privacy Request” and describe your request. For BUNKERED or launcher requests, include your Epic account ID or display name if available. Do not send your password or authentication tokens.
We may ask for reasonable information to verify that the request relates to your account.
We will review and respond to requests in accordance with applicable law. Where information must be retained, we will explain applicable limitations. Deleting information required for authentication or access management may prevent you from continuing to use the playtest or online services.
Additional privacy rights may apply depending on where you live.
Data Security and International Processing
We use reasonable safeguards designed to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Our service providers may process information in countries other than your country of residence, where privacy laws may differ.
Children’s Privacy
Our website, launcher, and playtesting services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact contact@breaklinegaming.com so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as our services and practices change. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised Last Updated date. Where required, we will provide additional notice of significant changes.
