Our Privacy Commitment

ShipThorn is committed to protecting user privacy while delivering quality entertainment. This Privacy Policy provides a comprehensive overview of what information we encounter during your use of our platform, how we handle it, and what control you maintain over your data. We operate under a privacy-conscious framework that minimizes data collection and maximizes transparency.

Information We Collect

ShipThorn's approach to data collection is deliberately restrained. We gather only information essential for platform operation and user experience:

Automatically Collected Technical Information

When you visit ShipThorn, certain technical data is automatically generated by standard web technologies:

• Connection Details: IP addresses, timestamps of access, and session duration
• Browser Information: Browser type, version, language settings, and enabled features
• Device Data: Device type, operating system, screen resolution, and hardware capabilities
• Usage Information: Pages accessed, features used, navigation paths, and interaction patterns
• Performance Data: Loading times, error occurrences, and technical diagnostics

Session-Based Browser Storage

ShipThorn utilizes session storage capabilities built into your web browser:

• Age Verification Status: A simple flag indicating you've confirmed being 18 or older (stored in session storage and cleared when you close your browser)
• Game Settings: Your preferred audio levels, display options, and interface configurations
• Session Continuity: Temporary state information to maintain gameplay continuity during your visit

All session storage data remains exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear this data at any time by closing your browser or using browser privacy controls to delete site data.

Data Use Purposes

The limited information we process serves specific operational purposes:

• Enabling core platform functionality and delivering gaming experiences
• Protecting platform security and preventing abuse or malicious activity
• Identifying and resolving technical issues to improve performance
• Analyzing aggregate usage trends to enhance user experience (without identifying individuals)
• Meeting legal obligations and regulatory compliance requirements

ShipThorn does not use your information for targeted advertising, user profiling, or commercial data sales.

Third-Party Services and External Links

ShipThorn operates independently without incorporating third-party analytics tools, advertising networks, or cross-site tracking mechanisms. We maintain a clean, self-contained platform that doesn't embed external services that could compromise your privacy.

However, our platform includes links to external resources (such as responsible gaming support organizations). Clicking these links navigates you away from ShipThorn to third-party websites governed by their own privacy policies. We encourage reviewing those policies, as we have no control over external sites' data practices.

Data Retention Policies

Different categories of data are retained for varying durations based on operational necessity:

• Session Storage: Retained on your device until you close your browser or manually clear site data
• Server Logs: Maintained for security and troubleshooting purposes for up to 45 days, then automatically deleted
• Technical Reports: Kept only as long as needed to address identified issues, typically no more than 60 days

Security Practices

We implement appropriate security measures to protect the information associated with ShipThorn usage. These include secure data transmission protocols, access controls, and regular security evaluations. However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security against all potential threats. We encourage users to take their own precautions, including using secure networks and maintaining updated browsers.

Protection of Minors

ShipThorn is designed exclusively for users aged 18 and above. We do not intentionally collect information from anyone under this age threshold. Our age verification process serves as a preventive barrier. If we become aware that an underage individual has accessed the platform, we take immediate action to restrict further access.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may possess specific rights regarding personal data, such as rights to access, correction, deletion, or portability. Given ShipThorn's minimal data collection model and reliance on session-based storage, most user-related data is already under your direct control through browser settings. For inquiries about server-side data we may hold, please contact us through appropriate channels.

International Data Processing

ShipThorn is accessible from locations worldwide, and platform operation may involve processing data in various jurisdictions. By using the platform, you acknowledge and consent to any such international data transfers and processing consistent with this Privacy Policy and applicable legal frameworks.

Policy Updates

ShipThorn may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or platform features. Significant modifications will be indicated by updating the effective date at the top of this document. We recommend reviewing this policy periodically to stay informed about our privacy practices.

Contact and Inquiries

Questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data handling practices should be directed to us through the contact methods available on the platform. We are committed to addressing privacy inquiries promptly and transparently.
