This Privacy Policy applies only to the websites, domains, online/offline services, smart devices, and games/apps that we provide, and not to any third-party websites or services that you may access through them. We recommend that you review the privacy policies of any other websites you visit before providing any personal information. We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of any significant changes by revising the date at the top of this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about our data practices.
Some of our third-party service providers may use cookies or pixels on your browser or device to collect information about your use of our online services. This Privacy Policy does not cover the use of cookies or pixels by these third parties. Most web browsers and devices are set to accept cookies and pixels by default, but you can usually change your browser or device settings to remove or reject them. If you choose to do so, it may affect your ability to use some of our online services.
The information actually processed may differ from game to game. The items, purposes, and retention periods for each game are described separately in Section 12, "Game-Specific Processing". For that game, Section 12 takes precedence over the general wording of this Policy.
We will process your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. However, your options to change how we, the Games, or our affiliated businesses use your information may be limited. You can opt out of personalized advertising through your device settings (resetting your advertising ID or turning off ad personalization) or through the in-game ad privacy settings, where available.
We do not collect any other personally identifiable information about you unless you provide it to us directly, for example by filling out a form, giving us written feedback, communicating with us via third-party social media sites, or otherwise communicating with us via the Games or other means.
We have appropriate security measures in place to protect your personal information, but we cannot guarantee the security of information processed online. For example, we store personal information on computer systems with limited access, encrypt data in transit (HTTPS), and restrict access to server administration accounts to the minimum number of personnel.
Our Games are not directed to children under 13 (under the U.S. COPPA) or under 14 (in the Republic of Korea), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If we learn that a child in these age groups has provided personal information, we will delete it without delay.
We have designated a privacy officer who is responsible for our handling of personal information and for addressing related complaints and remedies.
Knight Descending ("this game") is available on PC (Steam) and mobile (Google Play and the App Store). This game has no accounts and does not receive information that directly identifies you, such as your name, email address, or phone number. The information this game processes is limited to what is listed below; any general item in Section 2 that is not listed here does not apply to this game.
| Category | Items processed | Purpose | Retention period |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reach statistics (PC and mobile) | A random ID created for each save slot (a UUID that is not linked to any person, device, or account), the game type (platform pc/mobile + difficulty easy/normal/hard), the deepest floor reached in that run, and the time of the last update | To show anonymous statistics in the game, such as "N adventurers have reached this far (X%)" | Kept while the service is operated and destroyed when the service ends (the random ID is not linked to any person or device, and IP addresses are not stored) |
| Request handling (for the above) | IP address | Rate limiting to block excessive requests | Not stored (used only while the request is being processed) |
| Remote configuration (PC and mobile) | No identifiers are sent (as with any web request, the IP address is processed by Cloudflare in transit) | To receive game settings, maintenance notices, and update notices | Not stored by us |
| Advertising (mobile, if Premium has not been purchased) | Advertising ID, device information, IP address, etc. (processed by Google) | To serve and measure rewarded ads and prevent fraud | Subject to Google's policies |
| In-app purchase (mobile Premium) | Whether Premium has been purchased (the result of checking the store's receipt or purchase token) | To apply Premium (no hearts, no ads) and to restore purchases | Stored only on your device (deleted when the app is deleted). Payments are handled by the store; we do not receive card details |
| Purchase (PC) | We do not receive any | The game is purchased through Steam (Valve) | Subject to Valve's policies |
This game does not currently use the Steamworks SDK. If we start using Steamworks in the future (for example, to verify ownership of downloadable content), we will update this Policy beforehand.
Save slots (progress and equipment, stored encrypted), game settings, hearts, caches of the remote configuration and reach statistics, and your purchase status are stored only on your device and are not sent to our servers. They are deleted together with the app.
This game uses only internet access, network state, and vibration (Android). It does not access your location, contacts, camera, microphone, or other files on your storage.
| Recipient | Service |
|---|---|
| Cloudflare, Inc. | Hosting the reach statistics server (Workers and D1) and serving the remote configuration file (Pages) |
| Google LLC | Mobile advertising (AdMob), ad consent management (UMP), and Google Play billing |
| Apple Inc. | App Store payments |
| Valve Corporation | Steam sales and distribution |
Information that Google processes for advertising is subject to the Google Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and similar regions, consent for personalized ads is requested through Google's consent management platform (UMP), and you can change your choice at any time via "Ad privacy settings" in the game's settings. If you purchase Premium, the game does not initialize the ad SDK.
| Recipient (contact) | Country | When and how | Items | Purpose | Retention period |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cloudflare, Inc. (privacyquestions@cloudflare.com) | United States and data centers worldwide | Sent over the network when the game starts and when you enter a floor | Slot random ID, game type, floor reached, update time, IP address (only while the request is processed) | Reach statistics and remote configuration | Reach records are kept while the service is operated and destroyed when it ends; IP addresses are not stored |
| Google LLC (policies.google.com/privacy) | United States | Sent over the network when ads are loaded or shown | Advertising ID, device information, IP address, etc. | Serving and measuring ads and preventing fraud | Subject to Google's policies |
If you do not want your information transferred abroad, you can stop using this game, or (for mobile ads only) purchase Premium or turn off ad personalization in your device settings. In that case, some features, such as the reach statistics or ad-watching rewards, may not be available.
Information is destroyed without delay once its retention period ends or its purpose has been achieved. Electronic records on our servers are deleted in a way that cannot be recovered. Reach records are stored only under random IDs that are not linked to any person or device, and IP addresses are not stored, so a specific person's records cannot be singled out and individual deletion requests cannot be fulfilled. Reach records are kept while the service is operated and all of them are destroyed when the service ends.
This game does not use cookies. For mobile ads, Google AdMob uses your advertising ID. On Android, you can reset or delete your advertising ID under Settings > Privacy (or Google) > Ads. On iOS, you can opt out under Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking and Apple Advertising.
