For The Battle is an online game. We use servers to connect players together, different services to backup your data, your in game stats and enhance game experience. We use some third party providers for this task.
As there are in game monetization systems, data relevant to in app purchases, ads may be stored or sent. Also we collect analytics about actions you perform inside FTB to optimize our ads and improve the game.
And yet, we assure you that your data is in good hands.
We, as Vippy Games, use your data only to:
- Enable in game features & enhance your experience
- Implement monetization systems
- Improve our ads for FTB
- Debug in game errors & fix issues
Regarding other third party providers, all of them are large and reputable entities.
You may view their usage of your data in the links provided in this document.
Protecting the privacy of young players is a top priority. When you first launch the Game, we ask for your age.
Age Data Collection: We do not collect or store your specific birth date or exact age. Instead, we only store an age range category (such as "Under 13", "13-17", or "18+") to determine which game features and safety restrictions should be applied to your session.
For users who identify as being under the age of 18:
- We do not collect personal information for advertising, analytical or social purposes.
- We do not serve personalized (targeted) advertisements. Any ads shown will be contextual.
- We do not track precise location or transmit identifiable data to third-party social networks.
For users who identify as being under the age of 13:
- Social links are disabled. External links are restricted or harder to access.
- Chat Functionality: Social chat features are limited to Read-Only mode. Users can view moderated messages from others but are restricted from typing or sending messages.
- All restrictions for users under 18 apply.
Later, we will expand on how we use your data, including third parties to our recent knowledge.
We include here links to their own privacy policies. Make sure to check them, and of course those providers may change the way they use your data over time.
Unity
Used to build the game, authentication, game data storage, text chat communication via Vivox, friends services, ads, collecting logs and crash reports.
Google Services
Used to publish game, authentication, game data storage, in app purchases, ads, Play Games features, collecting logs & crash reports, and analyze Firebase analytics efficiently.
Firebase Analytics
Used to collect analytical info to improve the game and to serve better ads to promote FTB.
Apple Services
Used to publish game, authentication, game data storage, in app purchases, Game Center features, collecting logs and crash reports.
Photon Engine
Used for connecting players to servers.
Mostly data relevant to the game. Local settings, levels progress tracking, your skins, abilities, level, amount of coins etc. Some authentication related data might be stored locally.
We collect from you the data that is collected by default from apps published on Google Play or App Store.
This data may include ANRs, crashes, startup times and other performance and errors related data. We use this data only to fix problems and make the game better.
In addition, we use in app purchases, so relevant data regarding transactions history and spending on in app products will be collected as well.
We use it to enhance your experience. We might collect your achievements, nickname, in game progress and other FTB relevant game data.
As we use it as a provider to authenticate you, store your in game progress, show you ads and might use other Unity Gaming Services features, relevant data will be saved on Unity's servers.
We collect logs and crash reports for the purpose of monitoring performance and fixing issues.
We use Unity Friends and Vivox services. This allows people to add each other to friends, invite to games and communicate with one another via global, room or direct chat (restricted to users age 13 and older).
In addition to that, we collect from you the data that is collected by default from apps made by the Unity game engine.
We use the analytics feature to collect certain in-game events (such as reaching milestones, currency usage, and menu navigation) for the purpose of improving the game and optimizing our own marketing campaigns for FTB.
This data is pseudonymized and exported to Google BigQuery for analysis. This helps us analyze "User Journeys" (e.g., reaching certain milestones or game modes) to improve the game and optimize our ad campaigns. We link Firebase with Google Ads to help us find new players who might enjoy FTB.
We track certain actions, such as whether you bought items with coins, your play time, what skins you use, whether you invite friends for a game, and other analytical info. Additional data that may be collected is your IP address, and approximate location can be inferred from it.
We retain this pseudonymized event data only as long as necessary to fulfill these purposes. By default, user-level and conversion-level data is stored for 14 months, after which it is automatically deleted or fully anonymized.
Firebase Analytics collection is disabled for players below 18 or without consent signal according to Google's Consent Management tools. We provide the option to request Data Deletion.
Used as a server to connect players to the game. Different players identifiers, nicknames, ip addresses among the data that might be collected.
To show you advertisements, the Game may use unique device identifiers. On Android devices, this is the Google Advertising ID (GAID), and on iOS devices, this is the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA). Additionally, our ad partners collect your IP Address to determine your approximate location (City/Country) for localized advertising and fraud prevention. We use Google, Unity, and other mediation partners as providers.
On iOS, we only access the IDFA if you explicitly grant permission via the App Tracking Transparency prompt. If permission is denied, or if you are under 18, the identifier will not be used for tracking or personalization.
- Personalized Ads: Only served to users aged 18 and older who have provided a positive consent signal (via our Consent Management Tool where required by law, and on iOS, through the ATT prompt). In regions where explicit prior consent is not legally required, ads may be personalized by default for users 18+.
- Non-Personalized Ads: Users under 18, or those in regulated regions who opt-out/deny tracking, will receive basic ads based on the context of the game rather than their personal interests. These ads still utilize your IP Address for technical delivery and security purposes.
That's all. Remember, if you have any questions, you can always contact us.
We keep this document relevant and update it as needed. We encourage you to check it from time to time to stay informed about how your data is handled.
