OpenBack uses only the data needed to operate saved accounts, multiplayer, ranked play, clans, and player-selected public profiles. OpenBack is not the OpenFront hosted service and is not operated by OpenFront Inc.
Data OpenBack stores
When you create an account, OpenBack stores your verified email address, account and session identifiers, public player ID, in-game name, public description, banner color, selected flag and cosmetic, ranked rating and results, wallet and owned cosmetics, clan membership, an optional profile picture, and whether the first-death tutorial has been shown. Verification codes are temporary and expire. The browser also stores local game and display preferences needed to run the game.
How the data is used
Private email and session information is used for authentication and is not included in public player profiles. The name, description, banner, flag, cosmetic, profile picture, rank, public player ID, and clan information you choose are public identity fields and may be shown to other players in rankings, clans, friends, live matches, and game history. OpenBack does not include the upstream advertising or analytics boot scripts.
Your account choices
Logging out removes the session from that browser while preserving the saved account. Deleting an account removes its account profile, login, rating, wallet, cosmetic, profile-picture bytes, tutorial state, and clan data from OpenBack's account storage. Deletion is permanent and the removed account cannot be restored by logging in.
