Terms of Service
- By installing or playing Strike-Command: Idle Esports you agree to these terms. The game is an idle team-management simulation with online features (world ranking, live scrims, and global chat).
- Play fair: no exploiting, tampering with the app, or abusing the advertising or purchase systems. Accounts and saves involved in abuse may lose access to online features.
- Chat and user content: global chat is a shared space. You may not post content that is harassing, hateful, sexual, threatening, unlawful, or that targets other players. We run automated profanity filtering and human moderation; we may remove content, mute, or ban accounts at our discretion. You can report any message for moderator review from within the app. Chat is not private — anything you post is visible to all players.
- Ranked scrims: matches played for virtual currency stakes are simulated fairly on our servers. Virtual currency has no real-world value, cannot be cashed out, and forfeits (including disconnecting mid-match) are final as ruled by the server.
- Purchases (packs, crystals, passes, No Ads unlock) are billed by Google Play or Apple and subject to their terms and refund policies.
- Subscriptions (Field Kit): Field Kit is an auto-renewable monthly subscription (US $4.99 per month; the price shown in the store applies to your region) that removes ads, delivers 100 crystals and 1 golden key every day, and adds a gold name frame. Payment is charged to your Apple ID or Google Play account when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically each month unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel it at any time in your App Store subscription settings (iOS) or Google Play → Subscriptions (Android) — deleting the app does not cancel a subscription. Field Kit has no free trial. Terms of Use (EULA) for the iOS app: Apple's standard EULA; this page is our Privacy Policy.
- The game is provided "as is". We may change balance, features, or content at any time. Virtual items and currencies have no real-world value and are not refundable except as required by law or store policy.
- You can stop using the game and delete your data at any time — see Your Choices below.
Who we are
Strike-Command: Idle Esports is developed by Chaotic Game Studios LLC. This policy explains
what information the game collects, how it is used, and the choices you have.
The short version: the game runs on your device; a few optional online features run on servers we operate
(the world ranking, live scrims, and global chat). Everything else stays on your device.
Information we collect
- Game progress — stored locally on your device. If you enable cloud save, a copy is stored on our server so you can restore it on other devices; only you (via your sign-in account) can access it.
- Account info (optional) — if you choose to sign in with CGS ID, Google, or Apple, the game receives your basic account identity, used to tie your cloud save, ranking, scrim, and chat identity to you. For CGS ID specifically, our studio stores your email address and a one-way hashed password (never your plain password); see the studio-wide Chaotic Game Studios privacy policy for full CGS ID details.
- Purchase records — store purchase tokens used to verify your purchases and restore them on reinstall. We never see or store your payment card.
- Advertising identifiers — a resettable Google Advertising ID, used by Google AdMob to serve ads.
- Basic technical data — device model, OS version, and crash/diagnostic data collected by Google Play and AdMob, used only to keep the game stable.
- Ranked play data (optional) — if you sign in and join the hosted world ranking, we store your team name, color, country, team power, league results, and your account ID on our server so your team can appear on the shared leaderboard.
- Chat messages (optional) — if you use global chat, the messages you send are stored on our server for up to 7 days so they can be shown to other players, reviewed by moderators, and reported. When you tap "translate" on a message, that message's text is sent to a third-party translation service (MyMemory) to be translated.
- Live scrim data (optional) — if you play live or ranked scrims, we process your team roster and match events on our server to run the match fairly and settle any crystal stakes.
How we use your information
- To save and restore your game progress (locally, and to our server if you enable cloud save).
- To verify and restore purchases with the store.
- To display ads via Google AdMob (rewarded ads you choose to watch, and occasional interstitials).
- To operate the hosted world ranking — showing your team on a shared leaderboard alongside other players and simulated teams.
- To operate global chat — delivering messages to players, filtering prohibited content, and reviewing reports (including human moderator review of reported messages).
- To run live scrims on our servers and settle crystal stakes.
- To respond to support requests.
Advertising
The game shows ads via Google AdMob. AdMob uses your device's Advertising ID and
general device data (such as approximate location derived from IP) to serve and measure ads.
Where required (EEA/UK), the game asks for your consent choices on first launch via Google's
consent platform, and you can change them at any time in the game settings. You can also reset
or delete your Advertising ID in your device's Google settings under Ads → Delete Advertising ID.
The one-time No Ads purchase removes all ads permanently.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. Data is shared only with:
- Google (Sign-In, Play Billing, AdMob, and Play crash reporting) — governed by
Google's Privacy Policy.
- MyMemory translation service — only when you tap "translate" on a chat message: that message's text is sent to MyMemory (mymemory.translated.net) to be translated. No account details are sent.
- Law enforcement, when required by a valid legal request.
We run no analytics or tracking of our own. Online features (ranking, scrims, chat) run on servers we
operate (hosted by IONOS), used only to provide those features; that data is never sold or
shared with advertisers. All other game data stays on your device.
Your choices
- Delete local data: clear the app's storage or uninstall it — your local save is gone with it.
- Delete cloud save: remove the game's data from your Google Drive app settings, or sign out in the game.
- Remove ads: purchase the No Ads unlock, or reset your Advertising ID to limit personalization.
- Refunds: managed through Google Play's refund process.
- Questions or data requests? Email
support@strikecommand.chaoticgamestudios.com.
Data retention
Local game data lives on your device; deleting the app removes it. Cloud saves on our server are kept while
your account is active and removed within 30 days of a deletion request. Ranked play data is kept
on our server while your team is registered and removed within 30 days of a deletion request.
Chat messages are automatically deleted after 7 days; moderation reports are kept until resolved.
Purchase verification records are retained by the store per their policies.
Children
Strike-Command: Idle Esports is not directed to children under 13, and ads served to users who
indicate they are under the age of consent are restricted accordingly through Google's consent
tools. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will address it.
Changes
We may update this policy occasionally. Material changes will be noted on this page with a new
"last updated" date. Continued use of the game after changes take effect means you accept the
updated policy.
