Privacy & cookie policy
Last updated: 26 October 2026
This policy explains how personal data is processed when you visit playcompulse.com (the "Site"), the official website of the video game Compulse. In short: the Site does not use tracking cookies, analytics or advertising tools, and the only personal data we collect directly is the email address you choose to give us for the newsletter.

2. What data we process and why
| Data | Purpose | Legal basis | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Technical data (IP address, browser, date and time of the request, pages requested) | Delivering the Site, keeping it secure and protecting it from abuse | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) | Short-term logs kept by our hosting provider, as described in its policy |
| Email address | Sending the Compulse newsletter (news, playtests, release updates) | Your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), given by submitting the form | Until you unsubscribe |
| Contents of emails you send us | Answering your requests (press, creators, support) | Legitimate interest / pre-contractual steps | As long as needed to handle the request |
3. Service providers
- Cloudflare, Inc. — hosting and content delivery of the Site. Cloudflare processes technical data in order to serve and protect the Site. Cloudflare privacy policy.
- MailerLite (UAB "MailerLite") — newsletter delivery. When you subscribe, your email address is transferred to MailerLite, which acts as our processor. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link included in every email. MailerLite privacy policy.
Where these providers transfer data outside the European Economic Area, they do so under appropriate safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
4. Cookies
The Site does not set cookies and does not use analytics, advertising or social media tracking. Fonts and images are served from our own domain. For this reason no cookie banner is shown.
Our hosting provider may use strictly necessary technical cookies for security purposes (for example to filter malicious traffic). These do not require consent.
5. External links
The Site links to third-party services such as Steam, Discord, X, Instagram and YouTube. Nothing is loaded from these services until you click a link; once you leave the Site, their own privacy policies apply.
The trailer is embedded from YouTube in privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com) and is loaded only when you press play. From that moment, Google's privacy policy applies to the video player.
6. Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify and erase your data, to restrict or object to its processing, to data portability and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal. To exercise these rights, write to [email protected].
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; in Italy this is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
7. Changes
We may update this policy, for example when new features (such as an embedded trailer) are added to the Site. The date at the top of the page shows the latest version.
