Information we collect
Advertising and device identifiers. When ads are shown, the advertising software in the game (Unity LevelPlay, which mediates Unity Ads) collects your device's advertising identifier (Google Advertising ID on Android, IDFA on iOS where you have allowed tracking), IP address, device model, operating system, language, approximate location derived from IP address, and information about ad views and clicks. This is used to deliver ads, measure their performance, prevent fraud and, where permitted, personalise ads.Gameplay and analytics. The game records anonymous events such as levels played, game overs, purchases offered and declined, and session length through Unity Analytics. This data is aggregated and is used to understand how the game is played and to fix problems. It is not used to identify you.Game services. If you sign in to Google Play Games Services or Apple Game Center, Google or Apple provide us with your player identifier, display name and avatar, and we submit your scores and achievements to your account. Saily Seas also reads your Play Games friends list so that friends can be shown on leaderboards. Sign-in is optional and governed by your Google or Apple account settings.Purchases. The premium upgrade is sold through Google Play Billing or Apple's App Store. The store processes the payment and tells the game that the purchase succeeded. We receive no card or billing details. A record that the upgrade was bought is stored on your device and in your store account so that it can be restored.Correspondence. If you email us, we keep the correspondence for as long as needed to deal with your request.Website. This website uses Google Analytics cookies to measure visits and is served through Cloudflare, which processes IP addresses to deliver content and protect against abuse.
