StepIntoBible is a private interactive Bible story website. Users can create an account, log in, play stories, save progress and view achievements.
Data processed
- Account data: name, email address and encrypted password.
- Game data: selected story, progress, decisions, values/statistics, achievements and approximate play time.
- Technical data: IP address, time of access, requested URL, user agent and similar server log data.
- Session data and CSRF tokens required for login and security.
Legal bases
Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where it is necessary to provide the account and game functions, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for secure operation, abuse prevention and server logs, and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR where consent is explicitly requested.
