Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Woblings ("we", "us", "our"), the operator of woblings.com (the "Game"), collects, uses, and protects your information. By creating an account or playing the Game, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Who we are
Woblings is an online, browser-based social game. For any privacy questions or to exercise your rights, contact us at [email protected] or through the Contact form on our website.
2. Information we collect
Information you provide
- Account details — your username, email address, and password (stored only as a secure hash, never in plain text).
- Profile & gameplay data — your avatar, in-game items, coins, progress, chat messages, and other activity you generate while playing.
- Communications — messages you send us via the Contact form or by email.
Information collected automatically
- Technical data — your IP address, browser type, device information, and approximate location (derived from IP), used for security, anti-abuse, and to operate the service.
- Cookies & local storage — small data files used to keep you logged in and remember preferences (see Section 5).
3. How we use your information
- To create and manage your account and provide the Game.
- To send account-related emails, such as activation and password-reset links.
- To keep the Game safe — preventing cheating, spam, abuse, and fraud.
- To respond to your support requests.
- To display advertising and, where applicable, offer optional rewarded ads (see Section 5).
- To understand and improve how the Game is used.
4. Third-party services
We share limited data with trusted providers only as needed to run the Game:
- Cloudflare — content delivery, network security, and secure hosting of the connection to our server.
- Resend / Amazon SES — delivery of transactional emails (activation and password-reset messages).
- Google AdSense — advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads (see Section 5).
We do not sell your personal information.
5. Cookies & advertising
We use cookies and browser local storage that are essential to the Game — for example, to keep you signed in. These are required for the service to work.
Advertising. We use Google AdSense to show ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and you can learn more about advertising choices at aboutads.info.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we will ask for your consent before personalized advertising cookies are set, through a consent banner. You may change or withdraw your choices at any time.
6. Legal bases for processing (GDPR)
Where the EU General Data Protection Regulation applies, we process your data on these bases:
- Contract — to provide the account and Game you signed up for.
- Legitimate interests — to keep the Game secure and prevent abuse.
- Consent — for personalized advertising and any optional features that ask for it.
- Legal obligation — where we must retain or disclose data to comply with the law.
7. Data retention
We keep your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account or ask us to, we remove or anonymize your personal data within a reasonable period, except where we must keep it to comply with legal obligations or resolve disputes.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To exercise any of these, contact [email protected]. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
9. Children
The Game is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
10. Data security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, including hashed passwords and encrypted (HTTPS) connections. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
11. International transfers
Your data may be processed on servers located in different countries by us or our providers. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for such transfers.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, by notice within the Game.
13. Contact
