What we collect and why

• Steam materiał do logowania - session tokens and, only if you choose password login, the Steam password and Steam Guard material needed to establish the session. This is necessary to perform the idling service you request under Article 6(1)(b).
• Payments - order number, plan, price, currency, status and payment-provider references. This supports the purchase contract under Article 6(1)(b), fraud prevention under Article 6(1)(f), and any applicable accounting obligations under Article 6(1)(c).

Twoje dane uwierzytelniające Steam

To idle for you, our servers establish a Steam session for your account. With QR login, we receive a session token and never receive your Steam password. If you choose password login, the password is szyfrowane w stanie spoczynku and is not displayed in the dashboard; the service decrypts it in memory when needed to authenticate with Steam. The operator controls the service and encryption keys, so encrypted storage does not mean login material is inaccessible to the operator. We do not access Steam payment details.

Jak jest chroniony

The public service is HTTPS-only. Steam credentials, tokens and Steam Guard secrets are encrypted at rest, with encryption keys kept separately from the database. Authentication cookies are HttpOnly, Secure in production and SameSite=Lax. Our application servers are hosted in Germany.

Przechowywanie i usuwanie danych

• Steam accounts and credentials: kept while that Steam account is connected; removing it deletes its stored login material.
• HourIdler account, usage, support and order rows: kept while the account is active. Starting account deletion immediately stops idling and revokes sessions. A recovery link remains valid for three days, after which scheduled cleanup permanently deletes the account and associated HourIdler database rows.
• Verification and recovery codes: usable for 15 minutes to one hour depending on the flow. They are stored only as hashes and removed by routine expiry cleanup.
• Security audit records: removed by routine cleanup after 365 days. Deleting an account does not immediately erase every security audit record.
• Cookies: retained for the periods listed below.
