Privacy

We collect as little as we can and keep it as briefly as we can. This page says exactly what that means.

Your account

• We never store your email in a readable form. We keep a keyed hash of it (HMAC-SHA-256 with a secret only our server knows), which is enough to recognize you when you sign in.
• Your email is used for one thing: sending your sign-in code. Codes expire after 10 minutes and lock after 5 wrong tries.
• There is no password, so there is no password to leak.
• We store your display name, your friend list, your trophies and launcher progress, and the games you own.
• You can delete your account from the launcher's settings. That removes your account, sessions, purchases record and profile from our database, and closes your Stripe customer record.

Payments

Stripe handles every payment on its own secure pages. Your card details go to Stripe and never reach Manawave. We only learn that a payment succeeded and what it was for.

Downloads

Free games download directly. For paid games, the launcher asks our server for a download ticket that is valid for 15 minutes. The ticket names the game and your account so a leaked link can be traced and stopped.

What we don't do

• No ads, no ad trackers, no analytics scripts on this site or in the launcher.
• No selling or sharing of your data.
• This website uses no cookies. The sign-up page keeps your session in your browser tab only until you close it.

Questions

Questions about your data, or want it deleted? Email mana@manawavegames.com. You can also delete your account yourself in the launcher under Settings, Account.
