Data and privacy

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 7, 2026 Last Updated: March 7, 2026

Balatromodmanager.com is an independent website about Balatro Mod Manager. This Privacy Policy explains what information this website may receive when you browse pages, click download guidance, or send a message through the site. It applies to this website only. It does not replace the privacy terms used by the official Balatro Mod Manager project, the official download site, GitHub release pages, or any other destination you visit after leaving Balatromodmanager.com.

Balatro Mod Manager is a desktop app used to discover, install, update, enable, disable, and remove Balatro mods. Those app actions usually happen on your own device. This policy focuses on website activity, not on private files stored inside the app on your computer.

1. Policy Scope

This page explains how Balatromodmanager.com handles website-level information.

Balatromodmanager.com is a fan-made information resource for Balatro Mod Manager. We publish software summaries, setup notes, compatibility reminders, and download guidance for public releases such as Balatro Mod Manager v0.4.0. We are not the developer of the software, we do not operate the app itself, and we do not claim to be the official Balatro Mod Manager service.

This policy applies when you read content on the website, use the contact form, or click links that lead to official project pages or release assets. It does not automatically cover information collected by the Balatro Mod Manager desktop app, your operating system, Steam, GitHub, Cloudflare, or other outside services after you leave this website.

2. Website Data Versus App Data

The website and the Balatro Mod Manager desktop app are not the same thing, and they do not receive the same data.

Balatro Mod Manager is a standalone app that helps players manage Balatro mods, collections, update prompts, and backup flows on Windows, macOS, and Linux. When you use that app, files such as mod folders, backup archives, install paths, and local settings typically remain on your device or are handled by the official project sources you choose to access.

Balatromodmanager.com does not automatically read your local mod library, your installed mod list, your Balatro save data, your collection setup, your backup snapshots, or your Balatro Mod Manager settings. The website usually sees only website traffic data, security logs, analytics events, and the contents of messages you decide to send to us.

Important: if you attach screenshots, logs, or file details in a contact request, those materials may contain personal or device-specific information. Please send only what is needed for your question.

3. Information You Provide Directly

Direct submissions usually come from the contact form or a related support message.

If you contact us through the website, you may provide your name, email address, and the text of your message. You may also choose to include details about your browser, operating system, or download issue if you want help with a website problem. We use that information only to review and respond to the message.

We do not run public user accounts, paid memberships, private dashboards, or customer billing through this site. We therefore do not ask you for passwords, payment details, or routine profile data. If you send those details anyway, they will be outside the scope of what this website needs and should be avoided.

If your question is really about how Balatro Mod Manager behaves as an app, we may direct you to the official project channels instead of trying to collect more information through this website.

4. Information Collected Automatically

Like most websites, Balatromodmanager.com may receive technical request data when pages load.

When you browse the site, the hosting stack and security layer may log technical details such as your IP address, browser type, browser version, operating system, approximate region, referring URL, pages viewed, timestamps, and general device information. This kind of data is commonly used to deliver pages, understand traffic patterns, and reduce abuse.

If analytics tools are active, they may also record aggregated behavior such as session length, page depth, or which download guides are read most often. That helps us understand whether visitors are finding the Balatro Mod Manager information they came for, but it does not give us direct access to your local mod files or your in-app activity.

  • Server logs may record requests, response codes, and timing details.
  • Cloudflare may record security events, bot checks, and performance data.
  • Analytics tools may record pageview and engagement data in aggregated form.

5. Cookies And Similar Technologies

Cookies may be used for core site delivery, security checks, analytics, and advertising where those services are enabled.

Balatromodmanager.com may use a limited number of cookies or similar technologies. Some are technical cookies used by WordPress or caching systems to keep the site stable. Some may be security cookies used by Cloudflare to filter bad traffic and keep pages reachable. If analytics or ads are active, those tools may place their own cookies or use similar identifiers.

You can control many cookies through your browser settings. You can also review settings offered by Google for ad personalization or analytics controls if those services are active on the site. Disabling some cookies may change how certain site features behave, but the website should still remain readable.

Cloudflare cookies such as __cf_bm may appear as part of traffic filtering and request protection. They are used for security and delivery, not to build a Balatro modding profile around you.

6. How We Use Information

Information is used to keep the website running, understand page usefulness, answer messages, and prevent abuse.

  • To deliver pages, downloads guidance, and software information for Balatro Mod Manager.
  • To monitor uptime, page errors, broken links, and unusual request patterns.
  • To respond to contact requests and follow up on website issues.
  • To understand which pages are most useful so the site can be updated with clearer guidance.
  • To detect spam, bots, scraping abuse, and security threats.
  • To support advertising display if Google AdSense or a similar network is enabled.

We do not use this website to create customer accounts, build sales dossiers, or sync your Balatro Mod Manager library with a remote service. The site is informational, so our aim is to keep data use narrow and practical.

7. Third-Party Services And External Links

Some data may be handled by outside services that provide hosting, security, analytics, advertising, or download destinations.

Balatromodmanager.com may rely on third-party providers such as Cloudflare for delivery and security, WordPress for site publishing, Google Analytics 4 for traffic measurement, and Google AdSense for advertising if those tools are active. These providers may process limited data according to their own terms and privacy practices.

The website may also link you to the official Balatro Mod Manager website or public GitHub release pages so you can reach the real software files. Once you click those links, you are leaving Balatromodmanager.com and entering a different service. That destination decides how its own cookies, logs, downloads, and account systems operate.

We do not repackage Balatro Mod Manager, mirror private installers, or promise that any outside page will keep the same rules forever. Before downloading software, you should verify the source, confirm the release version, and review the destination site’s own policies.

8. Data Sharing And Retention

We do not sell personal information and keep website data only for as long as there is a valid operational reason.

We do not sell visitor data to data brokers. We may share limited data with service providers only when that sharing is part of normal site operation, such as hosting, security filtering, traffic measurement, or ad delivery. We may also disclose information if required by law, valid legal process, or a good-faith need to protect the site, users, or the public.

Retention depends on the data type and the service involved. Server logs may be kept for a short operational period. Contact messages may be retained long enough to answer the request and keep a basic record of the conversation. Analytics data may follow the retention settings available in the analytics platform. We try not to keep personally identifying website submissions longer than needed for site administration, communication, and legal recordkeeping.

9. Your Rights And Choices

You can limit cookies, opt out of some tracking, and ask about personal data you directly submitted to this website.

You can manage cookies through your browser, use privacy settings offered by outside services, and choose not to send optional information through the contact form. If you sent personal data directly to Balatromodmanager.com and want it corrected or deleted, you can contact us and request that review.

For visitors in the EEA or UK, the site may rely on consent for optional cookies and on legitimate interests for site security, fraud prevention, basic traffic measurement, and message handling. Depending on where you live, you may have rights related to access, correction, deletion, objection, restriction, or data portability. Visitors in California may also have rights under applicable state law, subject to any legal exceptions.

To make a request, use the Contact page and provide enough detail for us to understand what information you want reviewed. We may need reasonable verification before acting on a request.

10. Children’s Privacy And Security

The website is not directed to children under 13, and no internet system can promise perfect security.

Balatromodmanager.com is intended for general audiences looking for software information. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 through normal site use. If we learn that such information was submitted without proper consent, we will take reasonable steps to remove it.

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the website, including HTTPS and security tooling where available. Even so, no website, email flow, or internet transmission method is completely secure. Please do not send payment data, passwords, government identifiers, or sensitive save files through the contact form.

11. International Transfers

Because internet services often use distributed systems, website data may be processed outside your home country.

Cloudflare, hosting providers, analytics vendors, and advertising platforms may process information in multiple countries. By using Balatromodmanager.com, you understand that website data may be transferred to or processed in places outside your own jurisdiction. Where providers offer contractual or technical safeguards for cross-border processing, we rely on those safeguards as part of normal site operation.

12. Changes To This Policy And Contact

We may update this page when the website, its service providers, or applicable requirements change.

If this Privacy Policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a revised date. Continued use of Balatromodmanager.com after an updated policy is posted means you accept the revised terms to the extent allowed by law.

If you have questions about this website policy, use the Contact page. If you need technical help with Balatro Mod Manager itself, including mod dependencies, backup behavior, or release-specific issues, please use the official project channels instead of this website.
