Market Resolve Privacy Policy

Updated 3 November 2026

Jason Hui, trading as Galumi Studio in Perth, Australia, operates Market Resolve: Trading Survival. This policy covers the mobile game and its connected Market Resolve account, cloud-save, Daily Market and community services. Contact piru@galumistudio.com with privacy questions or requests.

Guest play and local saves

You can skip sign-in and play Practice and Survival as a guest. Game progress, settings, your player card and learning progress are saved on your device. If you enable cloud backup, the information in that save is uploaded as described below. The app checks which sign-in methods are available, so using guest mode does not prevent all network requests or technical logging. Removing the app or clearing its data may remove device-only saves.

Accounts and sign-in

Email sign-in uses your email address, account identifier and authentication information to create and secure your account, confirm your email and support password recovery. The app keeps session information on your device so you can stay signed in; it does not intentionally save the password you enter.

If you choose Facebook sign-in where available, Facebook and our authentication provider process the sign-in. We receive an account identifier, profile name, email if supplied and a profile-picture reference. The app can display that name and picture on Account & saves and an uncustomised player card. A name or avatar you choose in the game takes precedence. The Facebook display name and picture are not automatically copied into your mobile player save.

Loading a provider picture connects to the provider or its image host and may involve that provider's cookies and redirects. Facebook applies its own privacy policy and account settings. The mobile sign-in flow does not post on your behalf or request your Facebook friends list. The separate, optional community friend-discovery feature is described below.

Cloud backup and your player card

When you choose cloud backup, we store your mobile game save under your account. It can contain Practice and all three Survival accounts, simulated trade actions, balances and records, run history, achievements, settings, chart-view preferences, learning time and topic progress, player name and ID, chosen character or photo, and favourite stock or crypto symbols.

A photo you choose for your player card is cropped and resized on your device before it is included in the save. Use a built-in character if you do not want a photo included. Simulated trades and balances are game content, not records of real investments or financial accounts.

Backup also sends a randomly generated identifier for this app installation, a device label, save time, save revision and integrity hash. These support save history, recovery and conflict handling. The active cloud service retains the latest three different save revisions and up to 32 recent save-request receipts per account. Turning off automatic backup stops future automatic uploads from that device; it does not delete existing cloud saves.

Daily Market and linked Steam identity

Daily Market stores account-linked challenge state, trade actions and results so the server can run the scored challenge and calculate rankings. Completed challenge rankings can show a chosen community name or a generated Trader label, rank, score and challenge date to other signed-in players. Daily, monthly and all-time boards use these server-calculated challenge results; your private mobile Survival backup is not submitted as a competitive score.

If you choose to link Steam, we use Steam's sign-in service to verify your Steam identifier and record its link to your Market Resolve account. Linking does not transfer Steam Survival saves to the mobile game. Steam handles its own account and sign-in information.

Community and friend-sharing features

Where the community features are available, we store your chosen player name, friend code, friend requests, friendships, blocks, reports and sharing preferences. Your email and social sign-in identifiers are used for account access and are not displayed to other players.

If you enable friend statistics sharing, we store the game statistics and chosen activity that you upload, with the update time. These offline statistics are self-reported. This particular sharing feature does not upload private notes, photos or full save files; mobile cloud backup is a separate feature that does include the save and any chosen player-card photo. A friend request must be accepted before private friend statistics are shown. Turning sharing off hides those statistics from friends.

Optional Facebook friend discovery is off by default and is separate from mobile Facebook sign-in. When you enable discovery and allow Facebook friend access, the community service uses a temporary Facebook token to find eligible friends who also use Market Resolve, granted permission and enabled discovery. It does not receive your full Facebook friend list. The game database stores the preference, not the fetched friend list or discovery token. Blocks exclude matches. Turning discovery off stops future matching but does not remove existing game friendships.

Invitations contain a friend code that recipients can forward. Result cards contain the name and result you choose to share. Copies sent to another app are handled by that service.

Technical information and security

Our hosting and account providers record technical information when the game connects to their services. This includes IP addresses, approximate city or country inferred from those addresses, browser or device software information, request paths, times and status, authentication events and service timing or error information. We use these records to operate the service, investigate faults, protect accounts and prevent misuse. The mobile game does not request precise device-location permission.

Account and game-service requests use HTTPS. Online account data is protected by authentication and server-side access controls. No security measure eliminates all risk. The mobile game does not include advertising or third-party analytics SDKs; operational request and diagnostic logs still exist.

Service providers and processing locations

Supabase provides authentication, the database and server functions. The game database is configured in Sydney, Australia. Other service processing, including logs, support and delivery infrastructure, can occur outside Australia. Resend delivers account emails and stores email and delivery records in the United States. The Galumi Studio website is hosted through ChatGPT Sites and its hosting infrastructure. Facebook and Steam handle the interactions you choose to have with those services. App purchases are handled by the applicable app store.

These providers have their own privacy and retention information: Supabase, Supabase processing locations, Resend, Facebook and Steam.

Retention

Account information and connected game records remain while your account exists, subject to the cloud revision limits above. Signing out, disabling backup or uninstalling the game does not delete your online account. Device-only saves remain until you remove them, clear app data or use the mobile account-deletion flow.

Deleting your account removes its active authentication record and associated game-database records. Operational security, authentication, email and diagnostic records, and any provider recovery copies, are handled separately under the providers' retention settings and applicable obligations; account deletion does not promise their immediate erasure. They can be needed for security, fault investigation, recovery or legal compliance. Contact us if you need details about a particular record or deletion request.

Delete your Market Resolve account

In the mobile game, open Account & saves → Delete account and data and review the confirmation. Successful deletion removes the shared Market Resolve account and its associated active cloud saves, Daily Market runs, linked Steam identity and community records. It also clears the mobile game's local progress on that device. In the older community interface, Friends & rankings → My account → Delete online account removes the online account but leaves offline saves on that device.

You can also request deletion without reinstalling the game through our account-deletion request page or by emailing piru@galumistudio.com. We verify account ownership before acting. Never send a password, sign-in code or recovery code.

Deletion affects this shared Market Resolve identity across connected game services. It does not delete your Facebook or Steam account, cancel an app-store purchase, remove copies already shared with others or remotely erase local saves on other devices. Clear those device copies separately. Retained operational records are described above.

Your choices and privacy requests

You can play as a guest, choose whether to enable cloud backup, select a built-in avatar, change your player card, sign out or request account deletion. Contact piru@galumistudio.com to request access to or correction of your account information or ask about privacy. We may ask for information needed to verify that the account is yours.

Audience and policy updates

Market Resolve is intended for players aged 16 and above. This intended audience is not a claim that the game verifies every player's age. Contact us if you believe a younger child has provided personal information through an account.

The date at the top identifies the current policy. Updates will be published on this page.
