Delete your Mach-X data
This page explains how to delete the data that Mach-X: Roguelite Air Shooter, a game by Thomas Lehaen, keeps on our servers. Mach-X has no email accounts and no passwords. The only account is the optional pilot account for Co-op & friends. How the game handles data in general is in the Privacy Policy.
What the pilot account holds
The game creates a pilot account when you first open Co-op & friends. It holds:
- your pilot tag (like K7Q2-MX4P) and a hash of your secret key
- your callsign
- your friend list, pending friend requests and blocked pilots
- co-op invites (they expire after 10 minutes)
- quick-chat messages with your friends (preset phrases and emoji, the last 50 per friend) and unread counts
- your best solo score
- your online status and last-seen time
- your Play Games player ID, if you linked it
- your push notification token, if you allowed notifications
There is no email address, password or real name in it.
Delete it in the app
- Make sure your phone is online.
- Open Settings > Friends.
- Tap Delete pilot account, then tap Delete to confirm.
No Delete pilot account button? Then this phone has no pilot account (any more). If you think one still exists, use the email route below.
What happens
- Your pilot account and everything listed above are deleted from our servers at once. This cannot be undone.
- Your friends are told that you left. Your chats with them and your friend requests are removed too.
- Your game progress stays on your phone.
Automatic deletion
A pilot account that is not used for 365 days is deleted automatically, in the same way.
Ask by email instead
You can also ask us to delete your data. Email thomas.lehaen@gmail.com and say what to delete:
- Pilot account: send your pilot tag. You find it in Co-op & friends. We store no email address or name, so the tag is how we find your account.
- World Rankings entries: send your callsign (and roughly when you played).
We answer within 30 days.
What we keep
The Delete pilot account button deletes the pilot account only. Your World Rankings entries, including entries on the Co-op board, are separate. They show your callsign (the Co-op board shows the callsigns of both pilots) and your scores, and they stay until you ask us by email to remove them. Daily and weekly boards delete themselves after about 9 and 23 days. All-time boards are kept until an entry is removed.
What is not on our servers
- Your game progress, settings and Supporter pack rewards are stored on your phone. Clearing the app's data or uninstalling the game removes them.
- Your Google data (Play Games, Play purchases) is managed by Google. Use your Google Account (Security > Third-party apps) or the Google Play Games app.
