Privacy
What we do with your data.
The short version: we keep your email and any answers you choose to give, use them only to tell you about OceanO and to decide what to build, and delete them whenever you ask. No cookies, no advertising, no cross-site tracking, and we never sell your data.
Last updated 28 September 2026.
Who is responsible
OceanO is being developed by Alessandro Lemser, based in Ireland, who is the data controller for the early-access list. For anything about your data, write to privacy@getoceano.com. More about who runs this site is on the legal page.
What we collect
When you sign up for early access:
- your email address;
- a record of your consent: the wording you agreed to, its language, and when;
- your country, derived from your connection by our hosting provider. We do not store your IP address;
- the site that linked you here, if any (just its name, for example reddit.com), and the campaign tag in the link, if there was one.
If you answer the optional questions after signing up, we also keep what you play, the equipment you ticked, anything you wrote about your setup, how you would want OceanO, and the price range you picked.
Why, and on what legal basis
| Data | Why | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | To tell you about early access and the launch | Consent, Art. 6(1)(a) |
| Consent record (wording, version, time) | To be able to show that you agreed | Legal obligation to demonstrate consent, Art. 6(1)(c) with Art. 7(1) |
| Optional answers | To decide what to build | Consent, Art. 6(1)(a) |
| Country, referring site, campaign tag | To understand where interest comes from | Legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) |
You give consent by ticking the box on the form, and for the optional questions, by choosing to answer them. You can withdraw it at any time; that doesn't affect anything we did before. Where we rely on legitimate interest, you can object, and we'll stop.
We don't sell or share your data, and we don't use it for advertising.
Where it is stored
The site and the list are hosted by Cloudflare, which processes the data on our behalf under its data processing agreement. The list is kept in a database restricted to Cloudflare's EU jurisdiction, so it is stored and processed inside the European Union.
Cloudflare, Inc. is based in the United States, and its network and Web Analytics may process technical data such as page requests outside the EU. Those transfers are covered by the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, under which Cloudflare is certified, and by the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses in Cloudflare's data processing agreement.
When we start sending emails, we may use an email service to do so. If that involves moving your address to another provider, we'll update this page first, and every email will include a way to unsubscribe.
How long we keep it
Until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. If OceanO doesn't go ahead, we delete the whole list. Either way, we delete it at the latest 24 months after you signed up, unless you have told us you want to stay on it.
Cookies and analytics
This site sets no cookies. We count visits with Cloudflare Web Analytics, which doesn't use cookies or identify you, only aggregate figures such as page views.
Your rights
You can ask to see the data we hold about you, correct it, delete it, receive a copy in a portable format, restrict or object to its use, or withdraw your consent. Email privacy@getoceano.com from the address you signed up with, and we'll reply within a month.
If you think we've handled your data wrongly, you can complain to Ireland's Data Protection Commission (dataprotection.ie), or to the data protection authority in the country where you live or work.
Changes
If we change how we use your data, we'll update this page and the date at the top. For significant changes, we'll ask for your consent again.
