1. Account Information: If you choose to register an account with our Services, we collect your full name, email address, password, phone number, birthdate and user nickname as well as voluntary information, such as your profile picture.    In certain cases, we may also request proof of identity or age verification by asking you to provide a valid government-issued ID or other documentation to confirm your identity or age. If you choose to log in, access or otherwise connect to the Services through a third-party service (such as Google, Facebook, etc.), we may collect your user ID and/or username associated with that third party service, as well as any information you make public using that third party service or that the third party service allows us to access.

2. Payment Information: When you decide to purchase Digital Items in our App, you will be required to provide us with your billing information. The information you will need to submit depends on which billing method you choose. For example, if you pay with a credit card, we will collect your card information.

3. Usage Information: When you use our Services, we collect technical information about your interaction with our Services. Such information may include gameplay recordings and statistics, geolocation data, IP address, unique identifiers (e.g. MAC address and UUID), as well as other information which relates to your activity in the Services.

4. Contact Information: When you choose to share your experience on our Services or invite friends to join, we collect information such as your contacts' names, phone numbers, email addresses, and public profile details from your phone or social media accounts. 

5. Communication Information: When you send us an email or contact us via the support in our App, we collect the Personal Data you provide us. This includes your name, email address and any other information you choose to provide. This also includes information you provide through participation in our games, challenges, promotions, marketing campaigns, events, or contests.

When you visit or access our Services, we use cookies, pixels, beacons, local storage and similar technologies ("Tracking Technologies"). These allow us to automatically collect information about you, your device, and your online behaviour, in order to enhance your navigation in our Services, improve our Services performance, perform analytics, customize your experience, and offer you, for example, tailored content and advertisements that better correspond with your interests.  You can learn more about our use of Tracking Technologies by visiting our Cookie Policy.

1. What types of Tracking Technologies do we use?

When you use or access our Services, we use the following categories of Tracking Technologies:

1. Strictly Necessary Tracking Technologies: These Tracking Technologies are automatically placed on your computer or device when you access our Services or take certain actions on our      Services. These Tracking Technologies are essential to enable you to navigate around and use the features of our Services. We do not need to obtain your consent in order to use these Tracking Technologies. 

2. Tracking and Advertising Tracking Technologies: These Tracking Technologies collect information about your browsing habits in order to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. The Tracking Technologies remember the websites you visit and that information is shared with other parties such as advertisers and/or publishers. Publishers, advertisers, and third-party ad networks may also utilize Tracking Technologies or similar technologies to deliver ads and monitor the performance of such ads. The collection of information through Tracking Technologies by such third parties will be governed by their own privacy policies/cookies policies and principles, which we do not control. 

3. Functionality Tracking Technologies: These Tracking Technologies allow our Services to remember choices you make (such as your language) and provide enhanced and personalized features. For example, these Tracking Technologies are used for authentication (to remember when you are logged in) and support other features of our Services. 

1. Performance Tracking Technologies: These Tracking Technologies collect information about your online activity (for example, the duration of your visit on our Services), including behavioural data and content engagement metrics. These Tracking Technologies are used for analytics, research and to perform statistics (based on aggregated information).

2. How and by whom Tracking Technologies are stored on your device?

We store Tracking Technologies on your device when you visit or access our Services, these are called "First Party Tracking Technologies". In addition, Tracking Technologies are stored by other third parties (for example, our analytics service providers, business partners, and advertisers), who run content on our Services – these are called "Third Party Tracking Technologies". Both types of Tracking Technologies may be stored either for the duration of your visit on our Services or for repeat visits.

There are various ways in which you can manage and control your Tracking Technologies settings. You can change your preferences using our cookie settings tool (however, please note that this tool may only be available in certain jurisdictions). Other methods of managing your Tracking Technology preferences include changing your browser settings to send a “Do-Not-Track” signal. In such a case, your browser will send us a special signal to stop tracking your activity. However, please note that certain features may not work properly or effectively if you delete or disable cookies.
