Fangfall — Privacy Policy
Fangfall (“the Game”) is a mobile game developed by Crintea Ltd (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what information the Game handles, why, where it is kept, and the choices you have.
Playing without an account
Your heroes, progress, settings and records are stored only on your device. We receive nothing. Reminder notifications (for example “research complete”) are scheduled on your phone and are never sent through our servers. You can copy your save yourself from Settings → Export.
Anonymous diagnostics
To find crashes and unfair levels, and to know how many people play, the Game sends us small anonymous reports:
- Crash reports — the error message and where in the code it happened.
- Level results — which story level, won or lost, how long it took, how many tries, your gear's power rating and stars, and which hero you played.
- Usage counts — a one-time “first launch” report when the Game is opened for the first time on a phone, and a “played today” report at most once a day after that. They let us count new installs and daily players. Your phone only remembers the date it last sent one, so nothing is needed to tell players apart.
Each report carries only the Game's version and the platform (Android or iOS). It contains no account, no device identifier and nothing about you, so it can't be linked to you. Reports are kept for 90 days; after that we keep only totals (such as players per day). You can stop them at any time in Settings → Send anon. stats.
Cloud Save (optional)
If you sign in from Settings → Cloud Save, we create a Crintea games account for you and store:
- Your email address and an account ID, provided by Google or Apple when you sign in (with Apple you can choose a private relay address). We use them only to identify your account.
- Your game saves — one per hero (progress, items, settings), with the time each was saved and a short device label (the platform plus a random code), so your phones can stay in sync.
- Leaderboard entries (only if you choose a leaderboard name) — the display name you pick, your best Endless wave and story stars, and which hero set them. These are public: every player can see them on the in-game leaderboards. Your email address and account ID are never shown.
We do not collect your name, phone number, location, contacts, photos, advertising ID or browsing activity.
The same Crintea games account also works in our other games (for example PetsDoku), so you only need one login. Each game’s data is kept separately.
Where your data is kept
Cloud Save data is stored on our own server, hosted by Hetzner Online GmbH in Helsinki, Finland (European Union). It is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS) and each player can only access their own saves. Sign-in itself is handled by Google or Apple under their own privacy policies.
Why we use it
Only to provide Cloud Save — backing up your heroes and restoring them on another phone — and the leaderboards you choose to join (the legal basis is performing the service you asked for). We never use your data for advertising or profiling.
How long we keep it
Until you delete it. Deleted data is removed from our live database immediately and disappears from our daily server backups within 7 days.
Deleting your data
- In the Game: Settings → Cloud Save → Delete cloud saves removes your Fangfall saves from our server and takes you off the leaderboards. Delete account removes your whole Crintea games account, including your data in our other games. Saves on your phone are not affected.
- Without the Game: see how to request account deletion.
- Uninstalling the Game removes everything stored on your phone.
Your rights
Under UK and EU data-protection law you can ask to access, correct, export or delete your data, or object to how we use it. Contact us at the address below. If you are unhappy with our answer you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ico.org.uk) or your local data-protection authority.
Children
The Game is intended for players aged 13 and over. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child has signed in, contact us and we will delete the account.
Changes
If we change what the Game collects, we will update this page and the date above before the change takes effect.
