What we collect and why

Account and game data
When you play, we store your game progress, in-game economy state, and settings in our database (Supabase). This data is tied to an anonymous player ID. We do not require you to provide your real name or email address to play.

Purchase data
If you make an in-app purchase, the transaction is processed by Apple or Google. We use RevenueCat to manage entitlements. We receive confirmation that a purchase was made and what was purchased — we do not receive your payment card details.

Advertising
Founder's Plot shows rewarded advertisements through Google AdMob. On iOS, we ask for your permission before allowing AdMob to use your device's advertising identifier (ATT prompt). If you decline, you will still see ads but they will not be personalized. AdMob may collect device identifiers, IP address, and usage data for ad targeting. See Google's privacy policy for details.

Analytics
We use Amplitude to understand how the game is played — which features are used, where players get stuck, and what needs improvement. Analytics data is behavioral (what actions you take) and does not include personal identifying information beyond an anonymous player ID.

Device location (approximate)
We use your device's approximate location to assign a regional weather profile that makes the game's weather events realistic for your area. We do not store precise GPS coordinates. Location data is used only for this purpose and is never shared with advertisers.
