Sink Zone

Privacy Policy — Effective June 2026

🛡️ Introduction

Welcome to Sink Zone, a multiplayer tactical naval strategy game. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the secure data of all commanders. This Privacy Policy details how we collect, store, and utilize data when you establish a communication link with our servers.

📡 Data We Collect

To facilitate secure multiplayer matchmaking, fleet battles, and secure account storage, we collect the following information:

  • Device Identifier (UUID): A locally generated unique code to authenticate your device and securely link your commander profile, unlocked skins, and inventory.
  • Commander Name: The public display name you select to identify your fleet on the leaderboards and lobbies.
  • Game Stats & Telemetry: Match results, ships sunk, XP level, trophies earned, and active daily mission progress.
  • Support Communications: Transmitted text details and telemetry logs submitted via back-channel support tickets.
  • Purchase History Details: If you make real-money purchases (such as chips/gold packages), we store transaction dates, package identifiers, and order transaction IDs issued by Google or Apple to securely credit your commander profile.
  • Local Storage: We use your device's local web storage (localStorage) or native secure storage plugins to save user configuration preferences (such as sound levels, music choices, and block settings) directly on your device. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

🔐 Data Storage & Security

Your data is processed in a secure, central SQLite database and is encrypted during transfer over WebSockets. We employ industry-standard security protocols to prevent unauthorized interception of tactical telemetry. We do not collect or store physical location data, real names, or billing details. All financial transactions and credit card processing are handled securely by Apple Inc. (App Store) and Google LLC (Google Play Store).

💼 Third-Party Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or distribute your identifier or battle logs to third-party advertisers. Your public credentials (username, XP level, skin display, and ranking) are visible strictly to other active game commanders via in-game Leaderboards and Near Me screens.

⚖️ User Rights & Data Deletion

Under GDPR and CCPA regulations, you hold full ownership of your data. If you wish to wipe your tactical logs or delete your commander account permanently:

Please open a support transmission thread inside the client lobby settings, or email our telemetry command center at gruvlox@gmail.com with your Device ID. All associated skins, metrics, and logs will be permanently deleted from our servers within 48 hours.

🛠️ Updates to This Policy

As sector commands expand and gameplay elements evolve, we may update this policy. We will notify active users via client lobby broadcasts of any substantial modifications.
