Privacy Policy

kickbacks (“kickbacks,” “we,” “us”) is a Fortnite companion app that can show an ad-supported reward window after a match is found and before gameplay begins. This policy explains what we collect, why, and your choices. Questions? Email support@kickbacks.lol.

Information we collect

• Account information. When you sign in with Google, we receive your email address and basic profile (name and Google account identifier) through our authentication provider. We never see your Google password.
• Activity data. During an eligible Fortnite loading screen, the app can generate “view events” describing that an ad was shown — the game, reward surface, timestamps, Fortnite phase state, and viewability details such as how long the ad was on screen and whether the app window was visible. We do not collect your gameplay, keystrokes, chat, or screen captures.
• Rewards balance. A server-side ledger we derive from your qualifying view events.
• What we do not collect. We do not collect payment or financial information — the current early-access version accrues a balance only and does not process payouts. When payouts launch, Stripe will collect the identity, tax, and financial information needed to verify eligibility and send funds under its own privacy policy.

How we use your information

• Authenticate you and keep you signed in.
• Credit your rewards balance for qualifying ad views.
• Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and invalid activity.
• Operate, maintain, and improve the service.
• Communicate with you about the service (for example, launch and account updates).

Advertising

Ads are served through Overwolf’s advertising network. Overwolf and its advertising partners may collect information (such as device and advertising identifiers) subject to their own privacy policies. See the Overwolf Privacy Policy.

Service providers

We rely on a small number of providers to run kickbacks, and your data may be processed by them:

• Google — sign-in.
• Supabase — authentication and database.
• Vercel — website and API hosting.
• Overwolf — the app platform and ad network.
• Stripe — identity verification, tax reporting, and cash payouts when payouts launch.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with the service providers above as needed to run kickbacks, or when required by law or to protect our rights and users.

Data retention

We keep your account and activity data while your account is active. You can ask us to delete your data by emailing support@kickbacks.lol.

Security

We use reasonable measures to protect your data — access is limited to server-side keys and encrypted connections. No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your choices

• Access, correct, or delete your data by contacting us.
• Sign out of the app at any time.
• Revoke kickbacks’ access from your Google Account’s security settings.

Children

kickbacks is not directed to children under 13, and you must meet Fortnite and Epic Games’ account requirements to use it. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The only notice we provide of any change is revising the “Last updated” date at the top of this page — we are not required to notify you by any other means. Your continued use of the Service after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
