Welcome to 2048 Pro Game (hereinafter referred to as "we", "us", or "our"). We operate the website https://www.2048gamepro.com and the 2048 Pro game offered on it (collectively, the "Service"). We are committed to protecting the privacy of our users ("user", "you", or "your"). This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service. Please read this privacy policy carefully. **If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access or use the Service.**
We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason. We will alert you about any changes by updating the "Last Updated" date of this Privacy Policy. You are encouraged to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed of updates.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect information about you in a variety of ways. The information we may collect via the Service includes:
Leaderboard Information: If you achieve a high score and choose to submit it to our global leaderboard, we will collect the name or alias you provide along with your game score. This information (name/alias and score) is publicly displayed on our leaderboards. Participation in the leaderboard is optional.
Locally Stored Data (Best Score & Player Name): To enhance your experience, we store your personal best score and, if you submit a score, your last used player name directly on your device using browser local storage. This data is not transmitted to our servers unless you submit a score to the leaderboard.
-
Usage Data (Through Third Parties like Firebase and potentially Analytics):
Firebase Realtime Database: We use Firebase (a Google service) to host our real-time leaderboard. When you submit a score, your chosen name, score, and a timestamp are sent to Firebase. Firebase's use of data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"), to collect information about how visitors use our Service. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve this Service. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the
Google Analytics Terms of Use and the
Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this site by disabling cookies on your browser.

You can typically remove or reject cookies via your browser settings. To do this, follow the instructions provided by your browser (usually located within the "settings," "help" "tools," or "edit" facility).
2. How We Use Your Information
Having accurate information permits us to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. Specifically, we may use information collected about you via the Service to:

Create and manage your entry on our public leaderboard if you choose to submit a score.

3. Disclosure of Your Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information we have collected about you in certain situations as follows:
-
Public Leaderboard: As stated, if you submit your score, your chosen name/alias and score will be publicly visible on our leaderboards accessible to all users of the Service.
-
Third-Party Service Providers: We share information with third-party vendors, consultants, and other service providers who perform services on our behalf, such as:
Firebase (Google): For leaderboard hosting and real-time database functionality.
Google AdSense: For serving advertisements.
Google Analytics: For analyzing website traffic and usage.
These third parties are typically bound by their own privacy policies regarding how they handle such information.
-
Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation, (ii) protect and defend our rights or property, (iii) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service, or (iv) protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public.
4. Security of Your Information
We use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information submitted to our leaderboard (which is managed via Firebase). Firebase employs its own security measures to protect data stored on its platform. While we and our third-party providers have taken reasonable steps to secure the information, please be aware that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.
5. Policy for Children
Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the relevant age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information without parental consent, we will take steps to remove such information and terminate the child's account or leaderboard entry. If you believe that we might have any information from or about a child under 13, please contact us using the contact information provided below.
6. Your Data Protection Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain data protection rights. For example, if you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), you may have the right to access, correct, update, or request deletion of your personal information from our leaderboard. If you wish to exercise any of these rights concerning data on our leaderboard, please contact us. Note that we can only manage data directly submitted to our leaderboard; for data handled by third parties like Google AdSense or Analytics, you would need to refer to their respective policies and opt-out mechanisms.
