By using, accessing, or downloading any of the Services, you agree to the collection, use, and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, you may not use, access, or download any of the Services.
U.S.-Focused Policy. The Services are intended for users in the United States. Where required by applicable law, we provide additional disclosures and choices (including for certain state privacy laws). The Services are not directed to individuals outside the United States, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Data from individuals outside the United States.
Updating This Privacy Policy
We may modify this Privacy Policy from time to time, in which case we will update the “Last Revised” date at the top of this Privacy Policy. If we make material changes to the way in which we use the information we collect, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you (such as by emailing you at the last email address you provided us, by posting notice of such changes on the Website and/or in the App, or by other means consistent with applicable law) and will take additional steps as required by applicable law. If you do not agree to any updates to this Privacy Policy, please do not access or continue to use the Services.
Our Collection and Use of Information
When you access or use the Services, we may collect certain categories of information about you from a variety of sources. This Privacy Policy covers our use of any information that can or could be used to identify you (“Personal Data”). It does not cover information which cannot be used to identify you (“Anonymous Data”). We need to collect and use certain Personal Data to provide the Services to you and fulfill the promises we make to you in the Terms of Use.
Account and Registration Information. To compete in Contests, you must register an account. The Personal Data we collect as part of the account creation process includes your email address, authentication identifiers, email verification status, screen name, username reservation, contest consent status, and account timestamps.
Gameplay Information. We collect gameplay information, including contest identifiers, score submissions, validated survival times, tap counts, death counts, leaderboard placement, payout rank, and related score-validation and anti-fraud review information.
Device and Diagnostic Information. We and our service providers collect device, app, diagnostic, notification, app-attestation (Firebase App Check), and advertising information processed by Firebase, Google Mobile Ads, Apple, Google, and related platform services. This may include device identifiers, advertising identifiers, IP address, device type and operating system, crash logs, and app performance data.
Location Information. We collect general location information (such as IP-based location and device signals) to (i) determine whether you are located in an eligible jurisdiction for prize-eligible Contests, (ii) prevent fraud and circumvention of location restrictions (including detecting VPN or proxy usage), and (iii) comply with legal requirements. We do not collect precise background location information.
Prize and Payout Information. We collect information needed to review and send eligible prizes, including winner email address, name, screen name, leaderboard rank, payout amount, and Tremendous reward and order status. If your aggregate prize winnings meet applicable tax reporting thresholds, we will also collect the information necessary to complete IRS tax reporting, which may include your full name, mailing address, and Social Security or Taxpayer Identification Number collected via IRS Form W-9 in order to prepare a Form 1099-MISC or other applicable tax information return. See 26 U.S.C. § 6041.
Feedback and Communications. We collect and maintain records of customer service and other communications with users, including survey responses, questions, or comments sent to us. This information may be used to support users and improve the Services.
How We Use Information. We use the information described above to create, authenticate, secure, and support accounts; to operate Contests, leaderboards, deterministic gameplay validation, anti-cheat review, notifications, and prize payouts; to display advertisements and measure app performance; to detect and prevent fraud; to debug and improve the Services; to enforce our Terms of Use and Contest Rules; and to comply with legal and tax obligations. We may also use any of the above information to protect or defend the Services and the rights of the Company, our users, or others, and to otherwise operate our business. This Privacy Policy is integrated into and is expressly a part of the Terms of Use, to be interpreted in conjunction with such Terms.
Website Cookies and Analytics. The Website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Website, monitor aggregate usage, and improve the Services. You may decline non-essential cookies through your browser settings; however, doing so may limit some features. Our Website is not designed to respond to “Do Not Track” signals received from browsers due to the lack of an industry standard for interpreting such signals.
Account Information and Deletion
If you would like to review or change the information in your account, you can do so through your in-app account settings. The App includes an account deletion feature. Upon your request to delete your account, we will deactivate or delete your account and information from our active databases. However, we may retain some information in our files to prevent fraud, troubleshoot problems, assist with investigations, enforce our legal terms, and/or comply with applicable legal requirements, including payout, tax, fraud, security, and audit records.
Data Retention
We retain your Personal Data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Specific retention periods include:
Prize, payout, and tax records: seven (7) years for tax and compliance purposes;
Account data: until your account deletion request, plus ninety (90) days for fraud monitoring;
Fraud, security, and audit records: as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above or as required by law.
Anonymous Data may be retained indefinitely for analytics.
Parties We May Share Your Information With
We will not share any Personal Data that we have collected from or about you except as described below:
Information Shared with Our Service Providers. We engage external service providers to work with us to administer and provide the Services. These service providers have access to your Personal Data only for the purpose of performing services on our behalf. Our service providers help us to:
Run, operate, and maintain the Services, including through Firebase services provided by Google LLC (authentication, database, hosting, cloud functions, App Check, and messaging);
Display advertisements through Google Mobile Ads and related advertising services;
Deliver eligible prize rewards through Tremendous;
Perform crash reporting, performance monitoring, and app analytics;
Administer Contests, including verifying eligibility, validating scores, and preventing fraud; and
Provide technical and customer support.
These providers may process information under their own terms and privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
Information Shared with Other Users and Publicly. When you participate in Contests, your screen name, scores, leaderboard rank, and eligible payout may be visible to other users in the App. Do not use a screen name that reveals personal information you do not want made public.
Advertising. Our advertising providers may collect device and advertising identifiers to serve and measure advertisements in the App. Depending on your state of residence, this activity may be considered “sharing” or use for “targeted advertising” under applicable state privacy laws, and you may have the right to opt out as described below. You may also limit ad tracking through your device settings, including Apple’s App Tracking Transparency framework and ad personalization settings.
Information Disclosed for Our Protection and the Protection of Others. We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials or private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We only share information about you with government or law enforcement officials or private parties when we reasonably believe it necessary or appropriate: (a) to respond to claims or legal process (including subpoenas and warrants); (b) to protect our property, rights, and safety and the property, rights, and safety of a third party or the public in general; or (c) to investigate and stop any activity that we consider illegal, unethical, or legally actionable.
Information Disclosed in Connection with Business Transactions. Information that we collect from our users, including Personal Data, is a business asset. If we are acquired by a third party as a result of a transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, some or all of our assets, including your Personal Data, may be disclosed or transferred to a third-party acquirer in connection with the transaction.
No Sale of Personal Data. We do not sell Personal Data in exchange for money.
Communications and Opt-Out. If you do not wish to receive marketing communications from us, you may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions included in our emails. Please note that this opt-out does not apply to operational or informational communications related to your account, Contests in which you are participating, prize delivery, or other administrative purposes.
Children’s Privacy
Stellar Return is a game that is restricted to adults over the age of 18 (18+) or the age of majority in their jurisdiction if greater than 18. Accordingly, Stellar Return is not intended for children under thirteen (13) years of age, and we do not seek or knowingly collect Personal Data from children under thirteen (13), consistent with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501–6506. Participation in prize-eligible Contests requires users to be at least eighteen (18) years of age (or the age of majority in their jurisdiction, if higher), and prize eligibility may require identity, age, residency, tax, or payment review as described in the Official Contest Rules or required by law. If we become aware that we have unknowingly collected information from a child under thirteen (13), we will make commercially reasonable efforts to delete such information from our database. If you are the parent or guardian of a child under thirteen (13) who has provided us with Personal Data, you may contact us using the information below to request that it be deleted.
Third-Party Websites and Links
We may provide links to third-party websites or other online platforms operated by third parties. If you follow these links, you should review their privacy and security policies and other terms and conditions. We do not guarantee and are not responsible for the privacy, security, accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information found on these third-party sites. Any information provided to a third-party service is subject to that party’s privacy policy, not ours.
Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information. Please be aware, however, that despite our reasonable efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee “perfect security.” We recommend that you do not use unsecure channels to communicate sensitive or confidential information to us. If you have any concerns about the security of your information, please contact us immediately using the information provided in the “Contact” section of this policy.
