Wingmate Racers Privacy Policy

Last updated: 18 October 2026 · Terms of use · Türkçe

Wingmate Racers is a racing game by Taha Ozturk. This page explains what the game sends to our server and why. The short version: single-player and Same Wi-Fi play send nothing to us. Online play uses a username you choose and keeps your race stats.

Single player and Same Wi-Fi

Settings are stored only on your device. Same Wi-Fi crews connect phones directly on your local network. Without an online profile, career progress (credits, ships, cleared levels) also stays on your device.

Online play

When you play online, the game connects to our relay server (relay.taha-ozturk.com) and we process:

• Your username, which other players see in crews and on the leaderboard.
• Profile keys: a random key for each device signed in to your profile. The server stores only a one-way hash of each.
• Your password, if you set one (optional, so you can sign in on other devices). The server stores only a salted one-way hash (scrypt), never the password itself.
• Your career save: credits, ships, guns, upgrades, cleared levels and race records, so the same progress follows you to your other devices.
• Game stats: online level, race XP, races played and play time.
• An anonymous device count: a random per-device id, hashed and kept only for the current day, to count daily players. Only the total survives the day.
• The game version, so out-of-date versions can be asked to update.
• Install ids: a one-way hash of the random id of each game install your profile was used on (the last 10), so that a ban for breaking the terms of use also covers those installs.
• Reports: when you report a player, we keep who reported whom, the reason and the time, so we can review it. Players you block are remembered only on your device.
• Your IP address, which every internet connection reveals. The relay keeps it in memory for up to an hour to limit abuse, and the web server's access logs keep it for up to 14 days for security, then delete it.

Race messages between you and your crewmate pass through the relay but are not stored.

What we don't do

• No advertising, ad tracking or third-party analytics.
• No email, phone number, contacts, location or real name is collected.
• We don't sell or share your data with anyone.

Deleting your Wingmate Racers account

Your Wingmate Racers online profile (account) and its data can be deleted at any time, in any of these ways:

1. In the game (Android, iPhone, iPad or web): open Profile → Account → Delete account. It is deleted at once.
2. On this page, if your profile has a password: enter your username and password below.
3. By email: write to support@taha-ozturk.com with the subject "Wingmate Racers account deletion" and your username. We delete the profile within 30 days and reply to confirm.

Deleted: your username, password hash, the hashes of your profile keys and install ids, your career save, online level, race XP, races played and play time, and the reports you made or received.

Kept: anonymous daily totals (for example "120 players today"), which contain no username or device id and can't be linked back to you. Web server access logs, which hold IP addresses, are deleted automatically after 14 days. If an account was banned, its username and install id hashes are kept so the ban holds.

Uninstalling the game deletes everything stored on your device. When you delete your account in the game, you can also choose to reset the career on that device.

Terms of use

By playing Wingmate Racers online you agree to these terms.

• Usernames are seen by other players. No offensive, hateful, sexual or impersonating names (for example pretending to be staff).
• No abuse: no harassment, cheating, exploiting bugs to ruin other players' races, or attacks on the server.
• Zero tolerance: we review every report, normally within 24 hours. Breaking these rules can get a username changed or the account deleted and the name and the device's game install banned from online play, without notice.
• Report and block: in the game, use ⋯ next to a player on the leaderboard or in your crew to report them or block them. A blocked player's crews are hidden from you and they can't join yours. Unblock them in Profile → Account.
• Report anything else to support@taha-ozturk.com.
• The game is provided as is. Online play may change or stop; your single-player career always stays on your device.

Children

The game is not directed at children under 13, and it collects no personal contact details from anyone.

Security

All online traffic is encrypted (HTTPS / secure WebSockets). Data is stored on a server in Türkiye.

Türkçe özet

Tek oyunculu mod ve aynı Wi-Fi'de oynanan ekip modu bize hiçbir veri göndermez; ilerlemen yalnızca cihazında saklanır. Online oynadığında sunucumuz seçtiğin kullanıcı adını, online seviyeni ve yarış istatistiklerini, oyun sürümünü ve günlük oyuncu sayımı için anonim bir cihaz kimliğini işler. Yasaklamanın o kurulumu da kapsaması için profilinin kullanıldığı son 10 oyun kurulumunun rastgele kimliğinin tek yönlü özeti hesabında tutulur; hesap silinince bunlar da silinir, yasaklanan hesaplarınki ise yasak sürsün diye saklanır. IP adresin kötüye kullanımı önlemek için en fazla bir saat bellekte, güvenlik kayıtlarında ise en fazla 14 gün tutulur. Reklam, takip veya üçüncü taraf analitik yoktur; verilerin kimseyle paylaşılmaz veya satılmaz. İsteğe bağlı bir şifre belirlersen yalnızca tuzlanmış tek yönlü özeti (scrypt) saklanır; kariyer kaydın (kredi, gemi, geçilen seviyeler) diğer cihazlarında da açılabilmesi için hesabında tutulur. Hesabını oyunda Profil → Hesap → Hesabı sil ile hemen, bu sayfadaki formla (şifren varsa) ya da kullanıcı adınla birlikte support@taha-ozturk.com adresine yazarak silebilirsin. Bir oyuncuyu bildirdiğinde kimin kimi, ne zaman ve neden bildirdiği incelemek için saklanır; engellediğin oyuncular yalnızca cihazında tutulur.

Kullanım koşulları: Online oynayarak bu koşulları kabul edersin. Kullanıcı adları herkese görünür: saldırgan, nefret içeren, cinsel ya da başkasını taklit eden adlar yasaktır. Taciz, hile ve sunucuya saldırı yasaktır. Her bildirimi genellikle 24 saat içinde inceleriz; kurallara uymayan hesapların adı değiştirilebilir ya da hesap silinip ad ve cihazdaki oyun kurulumu online oyundan yasaklanabilir. Oyunda liderlik tablosunda veya ekibindeki bir oyuncunun yanındaki ⋯ ile bildirebilir ya da engelleyebilirsin.
