Last Updated: June 5, 2026

FantasyForge Studio ("Company," "we," "our," or "us") operates the website located at fantasyforgestudio.online and all related applications, games, digital services, content, and features (collectively, the "Services"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your personal information globally. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree to the data practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not access or use the Services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information from and about users through three primary methods: information you provide directly, information collected automatically, and information received from third parties.

A. Information You Voluntarily Provide

Account Registration Information: Username, email address, password, and account preferences.

Profile Information: Customized avatar data, display name, and in-game bio text.

User-Generated Content: Messages, chat logs, forum posts, gameplay telemetry, and support feedback.

Customer Support Communications: Correspondence, error logs, screenshots, and contact details provided during technical troubleshooting.

B. Information Collected Automatically

Technical Identifiers: Internet Protocol (IP) address, Media Access Control (MAC) address, unique device identifiers (UDID), and mobile advertising identifiers (e.g., IDFA, AAID).

Device and Browser Data: Device type, operating system version, browser type, language settings, and hardware specifications.

Usage and Gameplay Data: Game progress, achievements, purchase history, clickstream data, timestamps, and session duration.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies: Small text files placed on your device to retain session status, secure accounts, and analyze traffic patterns.

C. Information from Third Parties

Authentication Services: Profile data, email address, and user ID from third-party login platforms (e.g., Google, Discord, Apple) when you link accounts.

Payment Processors: Confirmation of transaction status, purchase amount, and product identifiers from Stripe, PayPal, or mobile app stores. We do not store complete payment card information on our servers.

Analytics and Ad Partners: Demographic summaries, coarse geographic locations, and ad interaction metrics.

2. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA, UK, and International Users)

If you access our Services from the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom (UK), or other jurisdictions requiring specific legal grounds, we process your personal data under the following distinct legal bases:

Performance of a Contract: To maintain your user account, authorize entry, track game progress, and fulfill digital item deliveries.

Legitimate Business Interests: To detect and prevent cheating, fraud, hacking, or Terms of Service violations; to optimize network performance; and to improve software architecture.

Your Explicit Consent: When you affirmatively opt-in to non-essential cookies, tracking pixels, or direct marketing communications.

Compliance with Legal Obligations: To satisfy corporate tax requirements, accounting duties, or lawful court subpoenas and law enforcement requests.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We disclose information to external entities only under the following limited conditions:

Third-Party Service Providers: To trusted vendors hosting cloud infrastructure, processing payments, executing database analytics, or distributing support emails.

Public and Social Gameplay: Your username, display name, and game achievements are visible to other users within public leaderboards and multiplayer spaces.

Legal Compliance and Safety: To law enforcement or regulatory bodies when required by law, or to protect the safety, rights, and property of our users, the public, or the Company.

Corporate Transfers: To an acquiring entity or merger partner during a corporate reorganization, asset sale, bankruptcy, or consolidation.

4. Cookies and International Tracking Standards

We deploy cookies and tracking pixels to preserve configuration settings, authenticate sessions, and measure marketing performance.

Implied Consent Jurisdictions: Where permitted by law, your continued browsing of our site constitutes acceptance of cookies.

Prior Consent Jurisdictions (EEA/UK): If you are located in a region requiring affirmative consent, non-essential cookies (analytical and advertising) will be blocked from loading until you explicitly accept them via our cookie consent interface.

5. International Data Transfers

The Services are operated and hosted within servers located in the United States. If you access the Services from outside the United States, your personal data will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States.

For users located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we ensure a lawful data transfer mechanism is in place. We utilize Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission, or other valid transfer frameworks, to guarantee your personal data receives an equivalent level of protection to that guaranteed under your home jurisdiction's privacy laws.

6. Data Security and Retention

We employ industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to safeguard your personal information against unauthorized access, destruction, loss, alteration, or disclosure. However, no electronic transmission or computerized storage architecture can be guaranteed 100% secure.

We retain your personal information only for the duration necessary to satisfy the operational objectives outlined in this Privacy Policy, including satisfying legal, accounting, tax, or reporting mandates. When personal data is no longer required, we either permanently delete it or securely anonymize it.

7. Children's Privacy (COPPA and GDPR Compliance)

Our Services are not directed to individuals under the age of 13 (or the legal age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from children. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child without verifiable parental consent, we will purge that data from our production servers immediately. If you believe we possess data from a child, contact us at support@fantasyforgestudio.online.

8. Your Global Data Rights

Depending on your geographic location (including the EEA, UK, and California), you possess specific statutory rights regarding your personal information, which include:

Right to Access and Portability: The right to request copies of the personal data we store about you in a structured, machine-readable format.

Right to Correction: The right to demand the rectification of inaccurate or incomplete personal records.

Right to Deletion ("Right to be Forgotten"): The right to request the erasure of your personal data, subject to specific legal exceptions.

Right to Objection and Restriction: The right to challenge, halt, or restrict our processing of your information under certain conditions.

Right to Opt-Out of Sale/Sharing: The right to direct a business not to sell or share your personal info (we do not sell or share your data as defined under the CCPA).

Right to Lodge a Complaint: If you reside in the EEA or UK, you have the statutory right to lodge a formal complaint with your local Data Protection Authority (DPA).

To exercise any of these global privacy rights, please submit a formal request to support@fantasyforgestudio.online. We will verify your identity using account credentials before executing any statutory privacy requests.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time to maintain compliance with changing international regulations. When modifications occur, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this document and publish the revised policy on our website. Your continued utilization of the Services following the posting of an updated policy establishes your formal acknowledgment and acceptance of the revised data practices.
