Who we are
Resonant Worlds is published by Ruptured Studios, Inc. (Kansas City, Missouri), referred to here as “Ruptured Studios,” “we,” or “us.” Questions about this policy can go to legal@rupturedstudios.com.
What we collect
- Contact details you give us: your email address, and anything you choose to include in a message.
- Newsletter opt-in: if you ask to be kept posted, we record that request.
- Basic server logs. Like any website, our host (Netlify) automatically records standard technical data such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit.
- Analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, how the site is used (pages viewed, rough location, device and browser type). It sets cookies and collects a trimmed version of your IP address, on our behalf under Google’s privacy terms. We use this only to improve the site, not for advertising, and we don’t sell it.
We don’t use your information to track you across other websites for advertising, and we run no ad trackers. Because we don’t advertise to you, we don’t respond differently to “Do Not Track” browser signals. If you’d prefer not to be measured at all, you can use your browser’s privacy settings, an ad/analytics blocker, or Google’s opt-out add-on.
Children’s privacy
Resonant Worlds is made for players age 9 and up, so some visitors are under 13. We take that seriously:
- Before you sign up for updates or send us contact details, we ask your age. If you tell us you’re under 13, we won’t collect your email or personal details — a parent or guardian can sign up for you instead.
- We don’t knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you’re a parent or guardian and believe your child gave us personal information, email legal@rupturedstudios.com and we’ll delete it.
How we use it
- To reply to you and continue a conversation you started.
- To send game updates, world reveals, and Kickstarter news, but only if you opted in.
- To understand, in aggregate, how the site is used and improve it.
We do not sell or share your personal information (including as “sell” and “share” are defined under California law), and we don’t disclose it except with the service providers below who help us operate.
Who helps us operate
Our email updates and newsletter are handled by Kit (ConvertKit), which stores your email address and processes your subscription — including the confirmation (double opt-in) email — on our behalf, under its own privacy terms. Our website is hosted by Netlify, which records the standard server logs noted above. Site analytics are provided by Google Analytics, which processes aggregate usage data on our behalf under Google’s privacy terms. Some pages link out to other services (for example a community Discord or Kickstarter); those have their own privacy policies, and this one doesn’t cover them.
Your choices
- Unsubscribe anytime. Every update email has a one-click opt-out.
- Access, correct, or delete. Email us and we’ll handle your request.
- Depending on where you live (e.g. EU/UK under GDPR, California under CCPA/CPRA), you may have additional rights. We honor them. Email legal@rupturedstudios.com.
Keeping it safe
We hold only what we need, for as long as we need it, and protect it with reasonable safeguards. If something goes wrong, we’ll act quickly and tell affected people as required by law.
Changes
If we update this policy, we’ll change the date above and, for significant changes, give notice on the site.
