Privacy Policy
Last Updated: April 2026At RuneSpin, we value your privacy and aim to be 100% transparent about how we handle your data. We are a tool built for players, and your trust is our highest priority. We do not sell your data, and we do not use tracking or marketing cookies.
1. Information We Collect
We process data based on Contractual Necessity (to provide the service you signed up for) and Legitimate Interest (to keep our site secure). We collect:
- Email Address: When you log in via our One-Time Password (OTP) system, we store your email address to identify your account and save your progress.
- PayPal Transaction Data: If you purchase a Premium Clan subscription or a Sponsored Slot, we store the PayPal Payment ID and transaction status. We do not have access to, nor do we store, your credit card numbers, bank details, or PayPal password.
- Discord Data: If you choose to authenticate or link your account via Discord, we securely collect your Discord ID, Discord Username, and the email address associated with your Discord account.
- Game Data: We collect public hiscore data (levels, boss kills, quest counts) from the official RuneScape hiscores and RuneMetrics to track your progress.
- Technical Logs: Our server logs your IP address and browser type strictly for security purposes and to prevent unauthorized access.
2. Payment Processing (PayPal)
All financial transactions for Premium features and Sponsorships are handled exclusively by PayPal. By using these features, you agree to PayPal's Privacy Statement.
- RuneSpin functions as a merchant; PayPal provides us with a confirmation of payment and a unique Transaction ID to activate your features.
- We do not collect or store your billing address or full legal name unless it is provided to us by PayPal as part of the transaction receipt for tax and anti-fraud purposes.
3. Virtual Currency & Dueling
RuneSpin features a dueling system where users can "wager" virtual coins. Please note:
- These coins hold absolutely no real-world monetary value.
- Coins cannot be purchased with real money, traded for real-world currency, or cashed out under any circumstances.
- All coins are generated exclusively by playing RuneSpin. The real-world payments accepted on this site are strictly for Premium Clan subscriptions and Sponsored Slots and are not related to the wagering system.
4. Cookie Disclosure
We use exactly one "strictly necessary" cookie to function:
- PHPSESSID: This is a first-party functional cookie used to keep you logged in and secure your session. If you select "Stay Logged In", this cookie persists for 30 days. Otherwise, it expires when you close your browser.
5. Third-Party Services & Infrastructure
We do not share your personal information with third-party advertisers. We use the following essential service providers:
- PayPal: To securely process all payments and manage subscriptions.
- Pusher (Real-Time Notifications): To provide live updates for the Live Arena and site notifications. Your browser connects directly to Pusher, which may process your IP address to maintain the connection.
- Database & Hosting: Your data is stored securely on our private servers.
6. Your Rights & Data Deletion
You have the right to access, export, or delete your personal data at any time. If you wish to close your account and have your data permanently removed, please contact us:
- Email: admin@runespin.org
Note: Transaction IDs for payments made via PayPal will be retained in our financial records for the duration required by law for tax and accounting purposes.
