Steam Data

Steam OpenID confirms your SteamID after you sign in on Steam's website. VaultShuffle then uses Steam's API to read public profile details, including your display name, profile URL and avatar. OpenID does not give VaultShuffle access to your password or payment information.

You can also enter a public profile URL, custom profile name or SteamID without signing in. This creates a separate, unverified VaultShuffle profile with access through this browser's session. It does not prove that you own the Steam account.

Steam's library API provides the available fields for each visible owned game:

• an app ID and title
• total playtime
• a last-played timestamp

VaultShuffle adds catalogue information such as artwork, genres, tags, release dates, compatibility and estimated game length. Duration estimates do not come from your Steam library. Statuses, notes, progress adjustments, pins and collections are saved in VaultShuffle, not written back to Steam.

• Game IDs match your library entries to the catalogue and avoid duplicates.
• Playtime and last-played dates support sorting, activity tracking and recommendations.
• Genres, tags and duration estimates help rank games for your Session, Mood and Goal.
• Store and catalogue details supply artwork, compatibility and other game information.

Add a family member's public Steam profile to import games estimated to be shareable from their owned library. VaultShuffle uses public profile and game data, not a verified list of your Steam family membership. Steam may block access to a game even when VaultShuffle lists it as shared.

Shared games are labelled with their source. Your playtime for those copies is not available, so VaultShuffle does not use the owner's hours as yours or show a playtime-based completion estimate. You can hide family libraries, remove a member or filter for owned games. If you buy a shared game, a later owned-library refresh updates the existing entry.

Your Steam profile and game details need to be public for an import. Even then, the imported library may differ from the Steam client. Common reasons include:

• individual games or playtime hidden by privacy settings
• an incomplete or unavailable Steam API response
• removed apps or missing catalogue information
• demos, tools, dedicated servers and test apps excluded from the game catalogue

A game can also be imported but hidden by your current Library filters or status selection. Check those before refreshing. Family-shared games require an added family profile with visible game details.

Library refreshes update the owned-game data Steam returns. Pinned owned-game playtime also has a scheduled refresh and a manual refresh option on the Dashboard. Updates can be delayed by privacy settings, API failures or usage limits. Catalogue details are maintained separately. If a value differs from Steam, try refreshing; for a persistent problem, contact support.

Signing out ends this browser's session but leaves your saved VaultShuffle data in place. To request profile deletion and stop future syncing, email support@vaultshuffle.com or use Contact Us. Deleting VaultShuffle data does not remove games or change your Steam account. The Privacy Policy explains storage, analytics and your rights.
