Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our card game app (the “App”). By using the App, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. Information We Collect
We only collect the necessary information to provide you with a seamless multiplayer gaming experience. Specifically, we collect:
-

-
Anonymous User ID: An anonymous user ID is automatically generated for you when you start using the App. This ID is stored in our database and used to facilitate multiplayer sessions, track your in-game progress, and maintain your player profile.
-
Email Address (if you sign up): If you choose to sign up for an account, your email address will be collected and stored securely in our database. This is used solely for authentication purposes to verify your account and provide secure access to the App.
Additionally, we may collect anonymous crash analytics data to help identify and fix technical issues. This data does not include any personally identifiable information and is used exclusively to improve the stability and performance of the App.

2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect in the following ways:
Custom Name: Your custom display name is used to identify you in the multiplayer environment. Other players in the game will see this name, but it is not tied to any personally identifiable information (PII).
Anonymous User ID: Your anonymous user ID helps us manage your in-game profile and multiplayer sessions. It is required for coordinating online gameplay with other players and maintaining your game settings and progress.
Email Address: Your email address is used for account authentication and secure login purposes. It will not be shared with third parties or used for marketing purposes.
Game Statistics: If you sign up and participate in ranked games, we collect and store your game statistics in our database. These statistics are used to calculate rankings and may be displayed on the app’s leaderboards to showcase player performance.
