Effective Date: [TO BE FILLED]

This Privacy Policy describes how [YOUR NAME / BUSINESS NAME] ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the Stewardoly (大管家) online board game and related services ("the Service").

We respect your privacy and aim to collect only the minimum information needed to run the game. If you have any questions, contact us at [YOUR EMAIL].

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

Display name: A short name (up to 14 characters) you choose to identify yourself in a game room. This is not your real name unless you choose to use it.
Chat messages: Text messages you send to other players in a game room.
Hero selection and game choices: Your in-game decisions (which token you pick, which cards you draw, etc.) — used only to run the game.
Payment information (if you purchase a paid tier): Processed entirely by our payment partner Lemon Squeezy. We do not store credit card numbers, bank details, or full payment data on our servers.

Information collected automatically

Browser language preference: Used to display the game in your preferred language (English or Traditional Chinese). Stored in your browser's local storage, not on our servers.
Session data: A temporary room code and connection identifier used only while you play. Discarded when the room closes (6 hours of inactivity).
Technical logs: Server logs may temporarily record IP addresses, browser type, and timestamps for security and debugging. These are retained for a maximum of 30 days.

Information we do NOT collect

Real names, addresses, or phone numbers
Email addresses (unless you purchase the paid version through Lemon Squeezy)
Location data beyond approximate country (from IP, for security only)
Browsing history outside our Service
Biometric or facial data

2. How We Use Information

To operate the game (match players to rooms, sync game state, deliver chat messages)
To remember your language preference between visits
To process paid subscriptions (handled by Lemon Squeezy)
To respond to your support inquiries
To detect and prevent abuse, cheating, or security threats

3. Information Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information to third parties. Information is shared only as follows:

With other players in your room: Your display name, hero selection, in-game actions, and chat messages are visible to everyone in the same game room. This is necessary for multiplayer play.
With Lemon Squeezy (payment processor): If you purchase a paid plan, your name, email, and payment details are processed by Lemon Squeezy under their Privacy Policy.
With our hosting provider (Railway): Application logs and server data are stored on Railway's infrastructure under their privacy terms.
When required by law: If compelled by valid legal process in Taiwan or another applicable jurisdiction.

4. Affiliate Links

The Service may contain affiliate links to third-party Christian resources (such as bookstores or Bible apps). If you click these links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only link to resources we genuinely recommend. See the affiliate disclosure on each page where such links appear.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

We use your browser's local storage (not traditional cookies) to remember:

Your language preference
Your last room code (for 6 hours, to allow quick rejoining after a disconnect)

You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.

6. Data Retention

Game rooms: Automatically deleted 6 hours after the last activity.
Chat messages: Stored only during the active game session, then discarded.
Server logs: Retained for up to 30 days for security purposes.
Payment records: Retained by Lemon Squeezy per their policy and applicable tax law (typically 7 years for tax records).

7. Children's Privacy

The Service is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us at [YOUR EMAIL] and we will delete it promptly.

For users aged 13–18, we recommend playing with parental awareness and consent.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

Request access to your personal data
Request correction or deletion of your data

Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

To exercise these rights, contact us at [YOUR EMAIL].

For users in Taiwan: Your rights are protected under the Personal Data Protection Act (個人資料保護法).

For users in California, USA: The CCPA grants you rights to access, delete, and opt out of "sale" of personal information. We do not sell personal information.

9. Security

We use industry-standard security measures, including HTTPS encryption for all traffic. However, no system is 100% secure. Please use a unique display name and avoid sharing personal information in game chat.

10. International Data Transfer

Our servers are hosted on Railway, which may store data in regions including the United States and the European Union. By using the Service, you consent to such transfer.
