Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Scrapstead ("Scrapstead," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the Scrapstead game, website, and related services (collectively, the "Service").

1. Information We Collect

Account Information

When you create or access a Scrapstead account using Google Sign-In, Google may provide us with basic information associated with your Google account, such as:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Your profile image
• A unique Google account identifier

We use this information to create, identify, and authenticate your Scrapstead account.

Scrapstead does not receive your Google password.

Game and Service Data

When you use Scrapstead, we may collect information necessary to operate the game, including:

• Game progress and save data
• Account settings and preferences
• Gameplay activity
• Technical information associated with your use of the Service
• Error, diagnostic, and security information

The exact information collected may change as Scrapstead develops. This Privacy Policy will be updated when our data practices materially change.

2. How We Use Information

We may use information we collect to:

• Create and authenticate your account
• Save and synchronize game progress
• Operate and maintain Scrapstead
• Provide game features and services
• Diagnose bugs and technical problems
• Protect accounts and prevent fraud, cheating, and abuse
• Improve the game and understand how the Service is used
• Communicate with you about your account or the Service when necessary

We do not use information obtained through Google Sign-In for advertising purposes unless this Privacy Policy is updated to clearly disclose such use and that use is permitted by applicable Google policies.

3. Google User Data

Scrapstead uses Google Sign-In to allow users to authenticate with their Google accounts.

Information received from Google is used to authenticate users, associate them with their Scrapstead accounts, and provide account-related functionality.

Our use of information received from Google APIs will comply with applicable Google API Services policies, including applicable Limited Use requirements.

We do not sell Google user data.

4. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with service providers that help us operate Scrapstead, such as hosting, database, authentication, security, analytics, or infrastructure providers.

These providers may process information only as necessary to provide their services to us and subject to their applicable contractual and legal obligations.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, enforce our Terms of Use, investigate fraud or abuse, protect the security of the Service, or protect the rights and safety of Scrapstead and its users.

5. Data Storage and Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration.

No internet-connected service can guarantee absolute security.

6. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the Service, maintain your account, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect the security and integrity of Scrapstead.

Information that is no longer reasonably necessary may be deleted or anonymized.

7. Account and Data Deletion

You may request deletion of your Scrapstead account and associated personal information by contacting us at the address listed below.

Certain information may be retained when reasonably necessary for legal, security, fraud-prevention, or other legitimate purposes.

Deleting your Scrapstead account does not automatically delete your Google account.

You may separately manage Scrapstead's access to your Google account through your Google account settings.

8. Children's Privacy

Scrapstead is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

9. Third-Party Services

Scrapstead may rely on third-party services to provide authentication, hosting, infrastructure, analytics, payments, or other functionality.

Those services may process information according to their own privacy policies and applicable agreements with us.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

Scrapstead is under active development, and our data practices may change as new features are introduced.

When this Privacy Policy changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above. If a change materially affects how we use personal information, we may provide additional notice where appropriate.
