Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 02 June 2023

This Privacy Policy applies to Riloat's games, websites and related services, which we here collectively call the Service. We may periodically update this Privacy Policy by posting a new version on https://riloat.com. If we make any material changes, we will notify you by posting a notice in the Service prior to the change becoming effective. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date will be subject to the new Privacy Policy.

Most of the information that we collect about you comes directly from you when you play our Games or interact with third-party ads in our Games or with our ads in other publisher's Games. In general, the information we collect about you relates to the type of device you are using, information that helps us identify your device, how you play our Games and may include information that you submit to us when you voluntarily contact us. We may also collect information from app store platforms and partners and other third parties such as information about your interests and in-app purchases (provided that we never receive your payment or credit card information).

The information that we may collect about you through the Services broadly falls into the following categories:

(a) Information that you provide voluntarily

Certain parts of our Services may ask you to provide personal information voluntarily. For example, we will ask for certain information in order for you to submit enquiries to us, such as:

• your name, email address or other details, necessary to process your inquiries;
• any information you submit to our support team via email.

The personal information that you are asked to provide and the reasons why you are asked to provide it, we will explain to you at the point we ask you to provide your personal information.

(b) Information we collect automatically

When you use our Services, we may also collect certain information automatically from you and/or your device which may be considered personal information under applicable data protection laws, such as:

• Data and analytics about your use of our Services (e.g. in-game play progress, levels, games played, session length, preferred settings, which in-game adverts you may have viewed, in-game references or just game preferences, the means by which you were referred to our Services)

Advertising ID means Apple Identifier for Advertisers (“IDFA”) on Apple and Google Advertising Identity (“GAID”). These are unique identifiers for mobile devices that advertisers use for personalized advertising. They are consistent across all mobile applications and thus allow cross-app tracking. On Apple, you can opt out of it by choosing the “limit ad tracking” option in your privacy settings. On Google Android, you can opt out of these ads by choosing “Opt-out of personalized ads”. Advertising IDs are non-permanent, non-personal identifiers, which are uniquely associated with your device.

Device identifier / information means device type, device model, device manufacturer, device operating system and its language or other technical data like screen size or processor, or the combination of these data available from a device for a developer for checking the device compatibility with a particular application.

Some of this information may be collected through cookies as explained further under the heading Cookies below.

We use advertising to fund our Services and to make our games available for free.

As a safeguard to protect your privacy, we only store personal information temporarily. The information collected helps us improve our websites and Games and, at the same time, keep our Games free for a wide player base.

If you are an European Economic Area (EEA) - based user be aware that:

(a) When you use our Games, we rely on our legitimate interest to show advertisements to you. The legal basis to show ads to EEA users is legitimate interest in accordance with the European data protection requirements under Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, which we evaluated together with our data protection officer. In addition, a data processing agreements were concluded with external ad technology providers networks in accordance with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. We also ensure that our external service providers are committed to a high level of data protection by concluding data protection agreements.

(b) Before sharing any information with our advertising partners for the purposes of personalized advertising, we always ask for your consent, given when you press ACCEPT at relevant button when loading the Game. We allow our advertising partners to show personalized ads to you only if you have pressed ACCEPT in the relevant pop-up window and therefore consented to the sharing of your personal information for the purposes of personalized advertising. Our advertising partners use different technologies for the purpose of personalized advertising that process your personal information in different ways, so please review their data processing practices before you agree to show you personalized ads when you load the Game. The legal basis to show personalized ads to EEA-based users is consent in accordance with the European data protection requirements under Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, data processing agreements were concluded with external ad technology providers networks in accordance with the requirements of Art. 28 GDPR. We also ensure that our external service providers are committed to a high level of data protection by concluding data protection agreements. The purpose is to improve our Games and provide the player with more relevant ads. You have the option to withdraw your consent to share your personal information for the purposes of personalized advertising. You can withdraw your consent by going to the Game settings and clicking the Terms & Privacy button there. In section Personalized Ads Consent Withdrawal of the Privacy Policy, you will be able to manage your preferences by choosing to which advertising you would like to receive. When you decide to withdraw your consent or if you do not provide your consent, you may still see the same number of ads on your mobile device; however, these ads may be less relevant because they won't be based on, your interests, behavior, demographics, etc. Our advertising partners may continue to show you ads based on the content of the application you are using.

4.2. In-game advertising(i.e. when you view ads in Our Games)

To enable us to show in-game ads, we may send your advertising ID and IP-address to advertisers (or ad networks) to enable them to find appropriate ads to serve to you in our games and on third-party properties. You can control and limit our use of your advertising ID in your device settings. We do not control which specific ads are shown in our games (it is controlled by the ad networks), but we do blacklist certain categories of ads.

Advertising IDs are used by ad networks for a number of purposes (please refer to the Privacy Notices of our advertising partners listed here) including:

• limit the number of times you see the same ad;
• ensure they are dealing with humans with real devices and not 'automated' bots;
• serve you with advertisements likely to be relevant to you based on your advertising ID engagement with other brands and ads, also recorded using your advertising ID and using your general geographic area. Other brands buy advertisement placement via an ad network or ad exchange to advertise their products in our Games. The ad network or ad exchange acts as intermediary between the other game companies and Us. In order for an ad network to charge the company buying the ad, clicks on the ad and potentially installs of other developers' applications party apps are tracked. Views, clicks, and installs from ads are measured using Advertiser ID;
• track what games you have used to market your similar kind of games. The IP-address is typically used by advertisers to broadly see the general geographic area you are coming from (for example country, state, and sometimes city level).

4.3. View of our ads on third-party services

We also advertise the Games in other apps by asking ad networks to serve them to audiences that will be interested in them (determined using Advertising IDs).

Advertising IDs are used by ad networks for a number of purposes (please refer to the Privacy Notices of our advertising partners listed as “Third Parties”), including:

• measuring ad effectiveness (looking the aggregated views, clicks and installs they generate through their advertising in other publishers' games).
• informing players, who haven't played in a while, about new content in the Game. We give a list of these users as Advertising IDs to an ad network. Ad network then shows these users ads about the new content.
• not showing ads for a game which a player is already playing. We can send a list of active players in the form of Advertising IDs to an ad network. The Ad network then excludes these players from seeing the ad.
• marketing games to a group of potential players.
