Privacy Policy

Information we collect

Account details

Your email address and a securely hashed password — we never store your password in readable form. If you sign in with Google Play Games instead, we store the identifier Play Games provides for your account.

Gameplay data

Your survivors, chosen character names, inventory, position, settlement membership, and progress. Character names you choose are visible to other players sharing your game world.

Notification token

If you enable notifications, the device messaging token needed to deliver them.

Technical data

Your IP address and basic connection logs, used to operate and secure the service.

How we use it

• To create and authenticate your account and let you play.
• To run the shared, server-authoritative simulation — your progress, other survivors, and settlements.
• To send notifications you have opted into. Notifications are never used for advertising.
• To maintain security, prevent abuse, and diagnose problems.

What we don't do

• We do not show third-party ads.
• We do not sell your personal information.
• We do not use third-party advertising or analytics tracking SDKs.

Service providers

We use Google Firebase Cloud Messaging to deliver push notifications and, where you choose it, Google Play Games Services for sign-in. These providers process the limited data described above on our behalf, under their own terms.

Data retention & deletion

We keep your account and gameplay data while your account exists. You may request access to, or deletion of, your account and its data at any time by emailing the address below; we action verified requests within a reasonable period, subject to any legal retention obligations.

Children

The game is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country) and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will remove it.

Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS / WSS) and passwords are stored only as salted hashes. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

Changes

We may update this policy; material changes are reflected by the “Last updated” date above.
