Independent Site Notice
SBOX1 is not operated by Facepunch Studios Ltd, Valve Corporation, Steam, or s&box. If you log in with Steam or click to official Steam, Facepunch, s&box, marketplace, or third-party gambling websites, those services process data under their own policies and terms. Our privacy policy applies only to sbox1.com.

4. Third-Party Services
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including Steam, Facepunch, s&box, gambling platforms, trading marketplaces, and social media services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites and we do not control official Facepunch, Steam, Valve, or s&box systems. When you click on a third-party link, you are subject to that site's privacy policy. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies and terms of any third-party services before providing personal information.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit using TLS 1.3, secure server infrastructure, regular security audits, and access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel only. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security of your data.
