Privacy Policy

Overview

Gen "X" Quest ("the Game", "we", "us") is a retro arcade game about growing up in the 1980s and 1990s. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Game collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. It applies to the Game on the web, the App Store, and Google Play.

The Game currently has no in-app purchases and no ads.

By creating an account or playing the Game, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Game.

Information We Collect

We keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the Game:

Account information: your email address and a display name. Sign-in is handled by our platform provider, so we never receive or store your password.
Gameplay information: your scores, the level or zone you reached, items collected, chosen bike, and any nickname you enter for the high-score board.
Support messages: anything you send us if you contact us about a problem.
Stored on your device: your game progress and "intro seen" flags are kept in your browser or app storage so your progress survives between sessions.

What We Do Not Collect

No precise or approximate location data.
No contacts, photos, camera, or microphone access.
No advertising identifiers, no ad networks, and no third-party tracking or analytics SDKs.
No financial information. We never receive or store credit card numbers, bank details, or billing addresses.
No health, biometric, or sensitive personal information.

How We Use Your Information

To create and secure your account and keep you signed in.
To save your progress and scores.
To show the high-score board, including the nickname you choose for it.
To respond to support requests and fix problems.
To keep the Game safe, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations.

Legal Bases (EU and UK Users)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your information on these legal bases: performance of our agreement with you (providing the Game and saving your progress), our legitimate interests (keeping the Game secure and improving it), your consent where required, and compliance with legal obligations.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with advertisers.

Service providers: our hosting, database, and authentication provider processes account and gameplay data on our behalf so the Game can run.
Legal requirements: we may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or a valid request from a public authority.
Business changes: if the Game is transferred to a new owner, information may transfer with it under this same policy.
Other players: the nickname you enter for the high-score board and your score are visible to other players. Do not use your real name if you do not want it shown.

Data Retention

Account and gameplay data is kept while your account exists.
When you delete your account, your account record, scores, and progress are deleted, except where we must keep limited records to meet legal obligations.
Progress stored on your device stays there until you clear it or uninstall the Game.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. You can also clear progress stored on your device at any time through your browser or device settings.

California residents have the right to know, delete, and correct personal information, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising those rights. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

To exercise any of these rights, use the account deletion option below or email support@genxquest.com. We may need to verify that the request comes from the account holder.

Deleting Your Account and Data

You can permanently delete your account and data inside the Game: open Settings, choose Delete Account, and confirm. This removes your account, scores, and progress, and clears the game data stored on that device. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone.

If you cannot sign in, email support@genxquest.com and we will delete your account and data on request.

Children's Privacy

The Game is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are under 13, please do not use the Game or create an account.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, email support@genxquest.com and we will delete it promptly.

Security

We use encryption in transit and access controls on our systems to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Data Transfers

Our service providers may process your information in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses for these transfers.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the Game changes or as the law requires. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be announced in the Game or by email before they take effect.

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, your information, or the Game in general, email us at support@genxquest.com. We read every message and usually reply within a few days.
