1. Information Collected

a. IP Address:

We automatically collect the IP address of each user upon entering the game. This information is used for filtering requests and preventing system abuse.

b. User Accounts:

Players have the option to register a free account. When doing so, we collect the submitted username and hashed password. User accounts store in-game progress, such as collected items and in-game coins.

Note: until September 2024, users could also register using their email address. This feature has been discontinued, and all email addresses have been deleted from the database.

c. Map Uploads:

When users upload game maps using the in-game map editor, we collect a user-provided nickname, which is displayed as attribution if the map is published. No other personal information is collected during map uploads.

2. Collection Methods

IP addresses are collected automatically upon entering the game. Other information is collected only through user submission in forms.

3. Purpose of Data Collection

4. Third-Party Services

5. Storage and Security

All data is stored in an AWS database protected by Cloudflare. Passwords use secure hashing. In the event of a data breach, affected users will be promptly notified.

6. User Rights

Users can request access, correction, or deletion of their data through in-game forms or by contacting us via email or social platforms.

7. Data Sharing

No collected data is shared with third parties.

8. Retention Period

Data in user accounts and guest accounts is retained for a maximum of 3 months, after which it is deleted. Data about uploaded maps is kept until the maps are reviewed, with a maximum of 3 months.

9. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The game uses the browser's local storage to store user information, such as session ID, game settings, and user-defined controls. This information is not used for tracking or shared with other parties.
