# Privacy and data

> What Windage reads, what it stores and what other players can see.

This page describes in plain language how Windage handles your data.

## Signing in

* **Steam**: you sign in on Steam's own page. Windage receives your Steam identity and never sees your Steam password.
* **KovaaK's**: your kovaaks.com password goes straight to kovaaks.com and never touches the Windage server. Windage keeps only the resulting session, encrypted, so it can read your scores.

## What Windage reads

* Your scores and leaderboard positions on KovaaK's, for the playlists you analyze.
* Your Steam friends list, to show how you rank among friends on a scenario. This is visible only to you, on your own account.

## What Windage stores

* Your analyses and comparisons, as snapshots, so you can see your progress over time.
* Your leaderboard settings: whether you are visible, and your public name.

You can delete a comparison and all of its snapshots from the Compare page.

## Your stats folder

Connecting the KovaaK's stats folder is optional. When you connect it, the files are **read in your browser**. They are not uploaded.

## What other players see

Nothing, unless you join the [leaderboards](https://docs.windagehq.com/features/leaderboards.md). If you do, other players see only:

* Your public name
* Your avatar
* Your country

Your Steam ID and your accounts are never shown. You can hide yourself again at any time and it takes effect immediately.

## Disconnecting

You can disconnect your KovaaK's account from your account menu at any time.
