Zinance Inc. is a small Ontario studio. We’d rather ship games than collect data, so we collect as little as we possibly can. Here is exactly what that means in practice.

Introduction

Zinance Inc. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a corporation organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada, operates mobile applications (collectively, the “Services”). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process personal information in connection with our Services, and explains the rights and choices available to individuals with respect to their personal information.

By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, you must not access or use our Services.

02

Information we collect

We are committed to data minimization and collect only what we need to run the Services. Categories may include:

Through third-party services

  • Apple Game Center:If you use Game Center features, Apple may collect your Game Center display name, scores, and achievements. This is processed by Apple Inc. under Apple’s privacy policy.
  • Apple App Analytics:We use Apple’s built-in analytics, which provides aggregated usage data, crash reports, and performance metrics in anonymized form.

Advertising information

Some Services may show ads from third-party networks. If you consent through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency framework, those networks may collect your Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) and other device data to personalize ads. You can withdraw consent any time in your device settings.

What we don’t collect

We don’t require accounts. We don’t collect names, emails, phone numbers, payment data, or directly identifying personal information through our Services.

In compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and similar laws:

  • We do not require users to provide personal information to play;
  • We do not enable behavioral advertising for users who have not consented to tracking;
  • If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we promptly delete it.
