Geofast: Battle of Nations Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to Geofast: Battle of Nations, developed by Geofast Games. This Privacy Policy explains what types of information may be collected when you use our game and how this information is handled.

We value your privacy and want to ensure transparency about any data related to your use of our app.

Account Data

To access online multiplayer features, an account is created automatically. By default, accounts are linked to your device ID, requiring no personal information.

If you choose to create an email account or link your account, we collect:

• Email address - Used for account verification, password recovery, and important account-related communications
• Password - Stored securely using industry-standard encryption (hashed)

For all accounts, we store:

• Username/Display name - Your chosen in-game name, visible to other players
• Nation selection - The country you choose to represent in the game
• Friends list - Other players you have added as friends

You may also sign in using third-party authentication (Google, Apple). In this case, we receive only the information necessary to link your account as permitted by those services.

Gameplay Data

To provide online multiplayer features and leaderboards, your game progress is stored on our servers. This includes your rankings, match results, achievements, in-game items, and other gameplay-related data. This data is necessary for the multiplayer experience.

Chat and Communication

The game includes live chat features that allow players to communicate during matches and in nation chats. Chat messages may be:

• Transmitted in real-time to other players in the same match or nation chat
• Temporarily stored on our servers to deliver messages
• Subject to moderation to maintain a safe and respectful environment

Please be mindful of what you share in chat. Do not share personal information with other players.

Advertising (AdMob)

AdMob is used to serve ads in our game. It collects:

• Device IDs (e.g., Advertising ID or IDFA)
• Coarse location (based on IP address)
• Product interaction data (e.g., ad clicks and impressions)

This data is used for third-party advertising, ad performance measurement, and analytics. For details on how AdMob handles data, please review their Privacy Policy.

Users can adjust their ad preferences and tracking permissions through their device settings.

Analytics

We collect analytics data to understand how players interact with the game, identify issues, and plan improvements. This includes gameplay patterns, feature usage, and crash reports.

In-App Purchases

Google Play Store and Apple App Store handle all payment processing for in-app purchases. Geofast Games does not collect or store payment information such as credit card numbers.

We receive confirmation of purchases to deliver the purchased items to your account. Purchase history may be stored to provide customer support and restore purchases.

Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on secure servers. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including:

• Encryption of sensitive data (passwords, authentication tokens)
• Secure communication protocols (HTTPS/TLS)
• Access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel
• Regular security reviews and updates

Data collected by third-party providers (AdMob, app stores) is handled under their own privacy and security policies.

Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. If you request account deletion, we will delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal purposes.
