Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 15, 2026

My Game Cache ("we", "our", or "us") operates https://www.mygamecache.com (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you register or sign in, we collect your email address and display name. If you use a third-party login (Google, Steam, Microsoft, or PlayStation), we receive basic profile information from that provider as permitted by your settings with them.

Platform Credentials

To sync your game libraries we store authentication tokens for connected platforms (Steam, Xbox / Microsoft, PlayStation Network, Epic Games, and GOG). These tokens are stored encrypted in our database and are used solely to retrieve your game library on your behalf. We do not store your platform passwords.

Game Library Data

We store the list of games associated with your connected accounts, including titles, platform identifiers, playtime (where available), and cover art URLs sourced from public game databases (IGDB, RAWG).

Usage Data

We collect standard server logs including IP address, browser type, pages visited, and timestamps. This data is used for security monitoring and service improvement and is not sold or shared with advertisers.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Providing and operating the Service (syncing and displaying your game library)
  • Authenticating your identity and securing your account
  • Sending transactional emails (password resets, account notifications) via Resend
  • Detecting and preventing abuse, fraud, or security incidents
  • Improving the Service based on aggregate, anonymised usage patterns

We do not sell your personal data, use it for advertising, or share it with third parties except as described in Section 3.

3. Third-Party Services

Operating the Service requires us to share limited data with the following trusted third parties:

Each provider has its own privacy policy. We choose providers that meet industry security standards and only share the minimum data necessary for each function.

4. Data Retention

We retain your account and library data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we permanently delete all associated personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law. Platform authentication tokens are removed immediately when you disconnect a platform or delete your account.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
  • Correction — request correction of inaccurate data
  • Deletion — request deletion of your account and all associated data
  • Portability — request your data in a machine-readable format
  • Withdraw consent — disconnect any linked platform at any time from your Settings page

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@mygamecache.com. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data: HTTPS/TLS in transit, encryption at rest for sensitive tokens, strict HTTP security headers, rate limiting on all authentication endpoints, and access controls limiting database access to application infrastructure only. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security but we take reasonable precautions.

7. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. International Users

My Game Cache is hosted in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the US, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US. By using the Service you consent to this transfer. We take reasonable steps to ensure your data is treated securely and in accordance with this policy regardless of where it is processed.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
