1. Introduction

One of the main priorities at Castle Climbers is the privacy of the players and community. This document contains all the types of data that are collected and recorded by Castle Climbers, and how it is used.

2. Consent

By using the application and playing the game, you hereby consent to our Privacy Policy and agree to all of its terms.

3. How the Data is Collected

As of update 0.2.0, accounts were introduced to Castle Climbers, meaning some information needs to be stored by the application, which includes in-game data such as play time, high score and total points etc.

There is also some personal information stored within the Castle Climbers database, such as passwords (kept secret and safe behind a hash), emails and usernames. All of these personal pieces of information are kept safe by external software.

Through the use of advertisements in the game, third-parties have access to your personal data. Data is collected to ensure that personalised advertisements are shown to the user. This means that ads are more relevant and appeal to the interests of the user. Castle Climbers has no access or control over the ads that are shown, or the data that is collected and used by third-party advertisers.

Castle Climbers Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or software, therefore to find out about policies regarding the third-party Unity advertisements that have access to this data, consult the relevant Privacy Policies.
