Privacy notice
This notice covers the playable game and records from our previous waitlist. New waitlist signups are closed.
Updated 6 September 2026
Game accounts
We store your email address, a password hash, verification status, account timestamps, and login sessions so you can sign in and return to saved businesses. Session records can include an IP address and browser information. Essential session cookies keep you signed in.
Signup abuse signals include a salted IP hash, email domain, country, and signup time. These are separate from your game transactions. We use account email to verify your address; creating a game account does not add you to a marketing list.
Saved businesses
We store the businesses you create, their inventory and finances, and their action history. These records make it possible to resume a game and reconcile its transactions.
Supporter purchases
If you buy a supporter edition, Polar acts as merchant of record and processes the checkout. We send Polar your game-account ID and email address so the purchase can be attached to your account, along with your IP address for checkout and tax handling. Polar collects the billing and payment details required to complete the purchase; Megacorp Empire does not receive or store your full card number.
We store the Polar customer, order, and product identifiers, the supporter status, and the dates that access was granted or revoked. Signed payment and refund notifications keep that status accurate.
Delete your account
Use Account settings to delete your game account. You must enter your current password and confirm the deletion. This removes your user record, credentials, sessions, signup signals, and the local supporter-status link, and removes account ownership from your businesses. Saved business records and their transaction histories remain. Purchase and tax records that Polar must retain are handled separately. You lose automatic access to your saves and supporter benefits; contact us with your receipt if you later need help with a purchase.
Unverified accounts cannot take new game actions after seven days. Accounts still unverified after 37 days are selected by the daily removal process, using the same account-removal and game-history handling. Email verification restores play before that removal occurs.
Previous waitlist records
The waitlist is closed. Existing subscriptions remain separate from game accounts. Use the unsubscribe link in a previous waitlist email to delete that subscription, or contact us below. Deleting a game account does not remove a separate waitlist subscription.
Service providers
Cloudflare hosts the application and database and delivers account email. Its infrastructure processes requests and operational logs. Polar processes supporter purchases as merchant of record. We do not use third-party advertising or analytics scripts in the application.
