Icarus Intel (icarusintel.com; "we", "us", "the site") is a free, community-run interactive map for the game ICARUS. It is maintained by a small group of ICARUS players and fans. This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and the choices you have. We keep it deliberately short because we collect very little.

Information we collect

• If you sign in with Google (recommended, and the safest option): your email address, your Google profile name (you can change the name shown in the app at any time), and your Google profile picture. We receive these through Google Sign-In. We never receive or store your Google password. That is why we recommend it: there is no password of yours here to be guessed, reused or leaked.
• If you create an account here instead (for people who have no Google account or would rather not use one): the username you choose and your password, plus an email address if you choose to add one. Your password is securely stored using one-way password hashing and cannot be retrieved in plaintext. An email address is optional. It is used to reset a forgotten password and to confirm the address itself. Without one, there is no way to recover the account if the password is lost. Confirmation and reset codes we mail you are short-lived and are deleted once used or expired.
• Maps you save to your account: the map data you create (cave notes, markers, custom labels and similar) so it can be saved and opened from any device.
• If you send us feedback: your message and any details you attach (a link, a map position), plus your browser's user-agent string. If you are signed in, the feedback is linked to your account; if not, you can optionally leave an email address so we can follow up.

If you do not sign in, no account data is collected. A map kept without signing in is stored only in your own browser and is never sent to us.

Like almost every website, our server also processes your IP address to deliver the site, maintain security, and rate-limit abuse (for example, feedback spam). We do not use it to identify or profile you.

How we use your information

• To provide and operate accounts and save your maps across devices.
• To let you share a map via an invite link with read-only or edit access.
• To show your chosen display name only to the owner of a map you have joined, after you accept their invite. If they remove your access, your name is hidden from them again.
• To show your name and profile picture to you in the app while you are signed in.
• To read and act on feedback you send us, and to reply if you left an email address.
• To keep the site secure and prevent abuse.

We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it for advertising or profiling. We use personal data only as necessary to provide, maintain, and protect the site and its features.

Legal basis

We process account and map data because it is necessary to provide the service you request. We process IP addresses and similar technical information where necessary for security, abuse prevention, and reliable operation of the site, based on our legitimate interests. Information you voluntarily provide with anonymous feedback is used only for the purpose for which you provided it.

Cookies and local storage

We use a single essential cookie for signing in and protecting form submissions (it expires after 30 days of inactivity), and your browser's local storage to remember preferences such as your theme, a map you keep without signing in, and which notices you have dismissed. These are strictly necessary or purely functional. The site uses no advertising or tracking cookies and does not use cookies for analytics or profiling.

Third parties

If you choose to sign in with Google, we use Google Sign-In to verify your identity. Your use of Google Sign-In is also subject to Google's own privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. If you create an account directly on the site, authentication is handled by our own application rather than Google Sign-In.

We may use service providers to host or operate parts of the site and to deliver email messages. They process data only as necessary to provide those services and are not permitted to use it for their own advertising or profiling.

Data retention and deletion

We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Account data is normally kept until you delete your account. Confirmation and password-reset codes are deleted when they are used or expire. Technical information such as IP addresses may be retained for a limited period where necessary for security and abuse prevention.

You can delete your account at any time from within the app. When you do, your personal information (email, username, password, display name and profile picture) is erased or anonymized so it can no longer be linked to you. Maps you own are preserved but frozen, and are no longer associated with identifiable information. Feedback you sent while signed in likewise loses its link to you. If you left an email address with anonymous feedback and want it removed, contact us and we will delete it.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you have the right to request access to, correction or deletion of your personal data, restriction of its processing, or to object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may also have the right to data portability. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@icarusintel.com.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.

These terms govern your use of Icarus Intel (icarusintel.com; "the site"), a free, community-run interactive map for the game ICARUS. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

The service

Icarus Intel is provided free of charge as a fan resource. Signing in is optional, with a Google account or with an account you create here, and it unlocks saving maps to your account, syncing across devices, and sharing maps with others. Signing in with Google is the option we recommend and the safest one, because we never handle a password for you; an account created here is for people who have no Google account or would rather not use one.

Your account

• You are responsible for keeping your account secure: your Google account if you sign in with Google, or your username and password if you created an account here. A password you created here should be unique to this site and never reused from another one.
• An email address on an account you created here is optional, and it is the only way to reset a forgotten password. Without one, an account whose password is lost cannot be recovered.
• You are responsible for the content you add, such as custom markers, labels and notes.
• You can delete your account at any time from within the app.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Use the site for any unlawful purpose or to store unlawful content.
• Attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the site or its data.
• Abuse the sharing features to harass others or distribute harmful content.

Your content

The map data you create remains yours. By saving it to your account or sharing it via an invite link, you grant us permission to store and display it as needed to provide those features.

Availability and warranty

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will never be lost. Please export important maps to a file as a backup.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site.

Termination

We may suspend or remove access that abuses the site or violates these terms. You may stop using the site and delete your account at any time.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the "last updated" date above. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
