2. What we collect
- Account ID. If you sign in with Google, we store an account ID so your progress, purchases and guild membership are saved. Our game servers do not store your name or email address; your Google sign-in record is kept by Google (Firebase Authentication).
- Game data. Your save (progress, items, heroes, pets, currencies), your in-game name, guild membership, guild chat and guild activity. Other players can see your in-game name and guild activity.
- Purchases. The Google Play order number, product and purchase token, and a record of what was granted. We never receive card or bank details; Google Play handles payment.
- Device and security checks. Firebase App Check and Google Play Integrity confirm requests come from a genuine copy of the game. Our servers also receive technical data such as IP address and request times, kept in short-lived logs.
- Advertising. If you watch optional rewarded ads, our ad partners may collect your device advertising ID, approximate location from IP, device information and ad interactions.
