What we collect

This section is accurate as of the current build and should be kept in step with the database schema.

What we do not collect

We do not handle payment details. We do not ask for your real name, your contacts, your location, or access to any file on your device. We do not sell your data.

Where it is stored

Your account, coins, items and match history are held in our database, and the game server writes them as you play — so they follow you from one device to another. Some things stay on the device instead and are never sent to us: your theme, sound and music choices, your remembered game setup, and the progress of a practice game played offline.

Playing as a guest still creates an account for you — an anonymous one with no email attached. It is stored exactly like any other, which is what lets your progress survive when you later sign up.

Advertising

The game is free, and advertising is part of how it pays for itself. We show ads through Playgama, an advertising service for web games that works with a number of ad partners, Google among them: a display banner on the lobby, and rewarded videos you choose to watch in exchange for coins. We never show an advert during a hand of cards, and a rewarded video is only ever started by you.

When an advert is shown, Playgama and the ad partner that serves it receive your IP address, information about your browser and device, and the page the advert appeared on, and may read or set cookies or similar identifiers on your device. That data goes to them, not to us — we receive only aggregate reporting, and we cannot identify you from it. Playgama's handling is described in its privacy policy; where Google serves the advert, what Google does with it is described in its own policy for partner sites and its advertising privacy disclosures.

If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, a consent dialog appears before any advertising identifier is set, and personalised advertising runs only on a consent you have actually given — we do not treat silence, or the absence of a dialog, as a yes. You can change or withdraw that choice at any time from Settings › Ad privacy, which reopens the same dialog. Withdrawing is as easy as consenting, and costs you nothing in the game: the rewarded videos still pay the same coins.

If you have never been shown an advert, nothing above has happened on your device yet. Premium removes advertising entirely, and the rewarded coin slots keep paying without the video.

Third parties

We keep this list short on purpose. Each of these holds data because the game cannot work without it, and each is bound by its own privacy terms.

Your rights

You can see and correct your details on the Profile screen. You can delete your account outright from Profile › Delete account — that removes your profile, coins, ledger, items and match history, and cannot be undone. Guests can delete too. You can withdraw advertising consent from Settings › Ad privacy.

Depending on where you live you may also have the right to a copy of your data, to object to some processing, or to complain to your local data protection authority. To ask for any of these, write to us at the address below.

Children

Accounts are not available to anyone under 13. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under that age, it will be removed.
