Privacy Policy

Effective October 26, 2026

Skyfire: Island Command (“Skyfire”, “we”, “us”) is a free browser game at skyfire.fun. It’s made and run by Alexander Howard, an independent developer in California, USA, who is responsible for your information under this policy. This page explains what Skyfire collects, why, who helps process it, and how you can see or delete it.

1. What we collect

Your account

• Email address and password, if you create an account. Passwords are stored only in hashed form by our account provider; we can’t see them.
• Sign-in with another service (for example Google), if you choose it: that service shares your email address and basic profile details such as your name and picture with us. We use the email address to identify your account.
• Guest accounts have no email. They’re identified by a random ID stored in your browser.
• Your birth year is asked once, when you create your commander, to check that you’re 13 or older. We don’t store it.

Your commander and your wars

• Your call sign, level, XP, medals, rating and rank, wins and losses, badges, the skins you own and use, and your clan.
• Records of the wars you play: mode, result, placing, length, territories, the units you used and similar game statistics, plus your Daily results.
• The orders you give during an online war, which are sent through our servers to run the war for every player in it.

Social features

• Friends and friend requests, lobby invites, clan membership, and the chat messages you send.
• Reports you make about other players, reports other players make about you, and any moderation action (such as a chat mute).
• Whether you’re online, in a lobby or at war, which your friends can see while you’re playing.

Technical information

• Like every website, our hosting and database providers receive your IP address, browser and device type, and the time of each request. They keep this in server logs for a short time for security and to keep the service running.

Stored on your device

• Skyfire uses your browser’s storage, not tracking cookies, to keep you signed in, remember your settings (sound, graphics, theme and similar), keep a solo war you can resume, and, if you tick “Remember me”, fill in your email next time. This storage is needed for the game to work, so there’s nothing to opt in to. You can clear it in your browser settings at any time.
• If you turn on match found alerts, your browser asks your permission to show notifications. You can turn this off in your browser at any time.

When you contact us

• Your email address and whatever you write to us.

2. How we use it

• To run the game: your account, your progress, matchmaking, rankings, leaderboards, friends, clans, chat, lobbies and online wars.
• To keep Skyfire safe and fair: moderating chat, handling reports, enforcing the Terms of Service, and preventing cheating, abuse and attacks.
• To send the emails your account needs: confirming your address, sign-in links, password resets and email changes. We don’t send marketing emails.
• To answer you when you contact us, and to meet our legal obligations.

We don’t show ads, we don’t use analytics or advertising trackers, and we don’t sell, rent or share your personal information for advertising.

3. What other players can see

Your call sign, level, rank and rating, wins and losses, clan, badges, war history and stats, and the chat messages you send are visible to other players. While you’re playing, your friends can see whether you’re online and which lobby you’re in. Please don’t put personal information such as your real name, address or phone number in your call sign, clan name or chat.

4. Who we share it with

We use a small number of service providers to run Skyfire. They process your information only to provide their service to us, under their own privacy and data protection terms:

• Supabase: accounts and sign-in, the game database, live updates during wars and chat, and account emails.
• Vercel: hosting the website.
• An email delivery provider, if we use one to send account emails from a Skyfire address.
• Sign-in services such as Google, only if you choose to sign in with them.

We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect the safety of players or the public, or to protect Skyfire against fraud or abuse. If Skyfire is ever transferred to someone else, your information would go with it and stay covered by this policy unless you’re told otherwise.

5. How long we keep it

• Your account and everything in it is kept until you delete it, except that lobby and war chat is cleared after two days and the orders sent during online wars after one day.
• When you delete your account, your profile, progress, war records, friends, clan membership, chat messages and reports are removed from our database straight away. Copies may remain in backups for up to 30 days before they’re overwritten.
• Records of shared wars kept by other players may still show the call sign you used in them.
• Server logs are kept by our providers for a short time, typically days to a few weeks.
• A guest account can’t be signed back into once you sign out of it. We may delete guest accounts that haven’t been used for a long time.

6. Your choices and rights

• Delete your account at any time from Settings > Account > Delete account.
• Change your call sign in Settings (once every 30 days).
• Ask for a copy of your information, or ask us to correct or delete it, by emailing support@skyfire.fun from the address on your account. We’ll reply within 30 days.

If you’re in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to our use of your information, and to receive it in a portable format. You can also complain to your local data protection authority. Our legal bases are: providing the game you asked to play (contract); keeping Skyfire safe, fair and working (our legitimate interests); meeting legal obligations; and your consent, for browser notifications.

If you’re in California or another US state with a privacy law, you have the right to know what we collect, and to access, correct and delete it. We don’t sell or share personal information as those laws define it, and we won’t treat you differently for using your rights.

Do Not Track: we don’t track you across other websites, so a browser’s Do Not Track signal doesn’t change anything here.

7. Children

Skyfire is for players aged 13 and older. We ask for a birth year when a commander is created, and we delete the account straight away if the player is under 13. We don’t knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has an account, email support@skyfire.fun and we’ll delete it.

8. Security

Connections to Skyfire are encrypted (HTTPS), passwords are hashed, and the database only lets each player read and change what the game allows them to. No online service can be perfectly secure, so please use a password you don’t use anywhere else.

9. Where your information is processed

Skyfire is run from the United States, and our providers may process information in the US and other countries. Where the law requires it, they use safeguards such as the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses.

10. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we’ll update the date at the top. If the change is significant, we’ll also tell you in the game before it takes effect.
