When you use Game of Hives, we collect basic data needed to run things: IP address, browser type, session length, and gameplay stats like your point balance and hand results. If you create an account, we store a username and email. That's it. We don't collect financial info because there's nothing financial happening here. No credit cards, no bank details, none of that.
Your data keeps the game running — maintaining your account, saving your score, fixing bugs. We look at aggregated gameplay stats to see what's working and what isn't. We don't sell your personal information to anyone. Analytics services we use receive anonymized data only. Your email won't end up on a marketing list.
Data is stored on secure servers in Canada with standard encryption for data in transit and at rest. Only team members who need access for maintenance have it. If you delete your account, personal data is removed within 30 days. Anonymized gameplay stats may be retained for internal analysis.
You can access, correct, or delete your data anytime by emailing [email protected]. If you're in the EU or Canada, you have additional rights under GDPR and PIPEDA — data portability, restriction of processing, the works. We respond to all requests within 30 days. If you think we've mishandled your data, contact your local data protection authority.
