STEAMER is an independent companion app designed to display public Steam profile, library, and achievement data in a mobile-friendly dashboard.
What data STEAMER may process
- Your Steam ID
- Public Steam profile information, such as display name and avatar
- Your public owned-games list, playtime, and achievement progress

How STEAMER uses this data
- To sign you in with Steam and load your selected Steam account
- To show your profile, library, dashboard, friends, and achievement progress
- To support optional Pro features such as saved accounts, watchlists, and compare tools
- To cache selected data locally on your device for faster loading
- To cache selected Steam-related API responses on Cloudflare for faster loading
- To send optional in-app feedback emails that you choose to submit
- To serve banner ads to free-tier users and remove ads for Pro users
- To verify, restore, and manage STEAMER Pro purchases through Google Play

Local storage
STEAMER stores cached Steam profile, game, and achievement data locally on your device using app preferences. This can include saved Steam accounts, cached dashboard summaries, library data, theme selection, watchlist data, and Pro unlock status for this device.
Signing out removes the locally stored session for that account and clears account-scoped cached app data stored on the device.
Backend services
STEAMER uses a Cloudflare Worker to proxy Steam Web API requests that require a server-side API key and to process in-app feedback delivery.
To improve performance, some Steam-related API responses may also be temporarily cached using Cloudflare Workers KV. This may include data such as Steam ID, public Steam profile details, owned games, and achievement-related response data. This caching is used only to speed up repeated requests and is not used to sell personal data.
If you send feedback through the app, STEAMER sends your subject, message, and any optional attachment through its backend so it can be delivered from and to thepetrichorgames@gmail.com. Your email app does not open during this process.
Ads and purchases
Free-tier versions of STEAMER may show Google AdMob banner ads. AdMob may use advertising-related identifiers and device data in accordance with Google's policies and your device settings.
STEAMER Pro purchases are processed by Google Play Billing. STEAMER receives purchase status information needed to unlock or restore Pro, but STEAMER does not receive your full payment card details.
Third-party services
- Valve/Steam, for public profile, game, friend, and achievement data
- Cloudflare, for backend request handling and temporary API caching
- Google AdMob, for banner ads on the free tier
- Google Play Billing, for Pro purchase and restore handling
- Gmail API by Google, for optional in-app feedback delivery
Data transmission and retention
Requests between the app, Cloudflare, and Steam are sent over HTTPS. Cached data may be retained for a limited time in local app storage and in Cloudflare caches before being refreshed or expiring automatically.
Feedback messages that you choose to send may remain in the receiving Gmail inbox and sent-mail records until they are deleted by the app operator.
Your choices
- You can stop using the app at any time.
- You can sign out to remove locally stored account data for that account.
- You can choose not to send feedback or attachments through the app.
- You can upgrade to Pro to remove banner ads.
Changes
This privacy policy may be updated from time to time. Material updates should be published at this same public URL.
