owlery.pro ("we," "us," or "our") operates a strategy game platform focused on turn-based battles, alliance building, and world domination. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information when you use our website, games, and related services (the "Services"). By using the Services, you consent to the terms outlined herein.
1. Collected Information
Personal Information: Account registration requires your email address, username, and password (encrypted). Optional details include your timezone and alliance affiliation. For in-game purchases, we collect payment information through third-party processors (Unity Payments, Square), which we do not store.
Gameplay & Technical Data: We automatically collect data such as battle outcomes, resource management, alliance interactions, device information (model, OS, IP address), session frequency, and in-game chat logs (for moderation purposes). We also track strategy choices (e.g., unit compositions, attack plans) to improve game balance.
Cookies & Tracking: Essential cookies enable account access and save game progress. Non-essential cookies (for analytics via Mixpanel) are used to measure user engagement and optimize features, with your consent.
2. Use of Information
To create and manage your account, authenticate access, and deliver the Services.
To process purchases, distribute virtual items (e.g., resources, units), and resolve payment disputes.
To analyze gameplay data to balance mechanics, fix bugs, and develop new content (e.g., alliances, campaigns).
To communicate with you (e.g., alliance invitations, game updates, support responses) via email or in-app messages.
To moderate user interactions, enforce our Terms of Service, and prevent cheating, harassment, or fraudulent activity.
3. Information DisclosureWe do not sell your personal information. We may share information:
With third-party service providers (e.g., cloud hosting via Google Cloud, payment processors, analytics tools) that assist in operating the Services, subject to strict confidentiality requirements.
To comply with legal obligations (e.g., court orders, subpoenas) or protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public.
In the event of a business merger, acquisition, or asset sale, where your information may be transferred (with prior notice to you).
4. User Rights
You can access, update, or delete your personal information via your account settings. For full account deletion, contact [email protected].
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser (disabling non-essential cookies does not affect core functionality).
You may opt out of marketing communications by unsubscribing from emails or adjusting notification settings.
5. Security & RetentionWe use robust security measures (encryption, firewalls, regular vulnerability scans) to protect your information. Personal information is retained for as long as your account is active or as required by law. Gameplay data is retained for 3 years after account deletion to support game improvements and legal compliance.
6. Children’s PrivacyThe Services are intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn of such collection, we will delete the information immediately. Parents/guardians may contact us to verify or delete their child’s data.
