1. Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how LarixGames ("LarixGames", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you use larixgames.com, contact the studio, create a website account, subscribe to studio updates, request support, or use a LarixGames game that links to this policy.
The website and each game may have different data practices. A game-specific disclosure below will identify what that game collects and which services it uses. Do not assume that a LarixGames game collects the same information as this website, or that every LarixGames game uses the same services.
2. Information handled by this website
Information you choose to provide
- Contact and support information, such as your name, email address, message, and any files or technical details you include.
- Newsletter information, such as your email address, confirmation status, and subscription preferences.
- Account information, if you create or use a website account, such as your name, email address, profile details, sign-in credentials in protected form, and account-security records.
- Feedback or other content you send to LarixGames.
Information handled automatically
- Basic usage and device information used for website analytics, such as pages viewed, approximate region, browser or device type, referring page, and interactions with the site.
- Operational and security information that may be processed by our hosting and security systems, such as IP address, request time, requested page, and error or diagnostic data.
- Cookies or similar browser storage needed for signed-in sessions, security, preferences, and measurement. You can control many cookies through your browser settings, although blocking essential cookies may prevent account features from working.
3. Game-specific disclosures
Before a LarixGames game that uses this policy is published, this section will be updated with that game's title, audience, data collection, analytics, advertising, online features, third-party services, retention, and deletion options.
No game-specific disclosures are published yet.
This section will be completed for each game before that game links to this policy.
4. Analytics
The LarixGames website uses Google Analytics to understand aggregate website use and improve the site. Google may process device, usage, and approximate-location information in accordance with its own policies. You can learn more through Google's Privacy Policy.
A LarixGames game does not necessarily use Google Analytics or any other analytics service. Any analytics used by a game will be named in that game's disclosure above.
5. Advertising
The LarixGames website does not currently display third-party behavioural advertising.
A game may contain advertising only when its game-specific disclosure says so. That disclosure will identify the advertising provider, the categories of information involved, whether advertising identifiers are used, and any available controls. No advertising practice should be inferred for a game that is not listed.
6. Third-party services
We use service providers where necessary to operate LarixGames, such as website hosting, security, analytics, and email delivery. These providers may process information for us under their own terms and privacy commitments.
Third-party platforms may also process information independently when you download a game, make a purchase, request a refund, or use a platform feature. Examples include an app store, game platform, console network, or payment provider. Their privacy policies govern their processing. Any SDK or service integrated directly into a LarixGames game will be identified in its game-specific disclosure.
7. Why we use information
Depending on where you live, we rely on consent, performance of a contract, compliance with law, and our legitimate interests in operating and improving safe services. You may withdraw consent at any time where consent is the basis for processing.
- Provide, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the website, accounts, games, and support services.
- Respond to messages, support requests, privacy requests, and feedback.
- Send studio updates when you have subscribed, and record your subscription choices.
- Understand performance and general usage so we can improve LarixGames products and content.
- Prevent abuse, protect users and services, enforce applicable terms, and comply with legal obligations.
8. When information may be shared
We may share information with service providers working on our behalf, when required by law or a valid legal process, when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, and service integrity, or as part of a business reorganisation or transfer subject to appropriate safeguards.
LarixGames does not exchange personal information for money. Some laws use broader definitions of "sale" or "sharing" for certain advertising or analytics activity. Where those laws apply, we will provide the disclosures and choices they require.
9. Retention and deletion
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing a requested service, maintaining security and records, resolving disputes, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods vary by the type of information and context.
Newsletter information is kept until you unsubscribe or it is no longer needed. Account information is generally kept while the account remains active and for a limited period afterward where necessary. Support and contact records are kept only as long as needed to handle the request and maintain appropriate business records. Game-specific retention will be described above when applicable.
To request access, correction, or deletion, email contact.larixgames@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Some information may be retained where the law permits or requires it.
10. Children's privacy
The LarixGames website is intended for a general audience and is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from a child below the minimum age required to consent to data processing in their location without appropriate permission.
A game may be designed for a different age group. Before such a game is published, its game-specific disclosure will state the intended audience, whether information from children is collected, which child-appropriate protections apply, and how a parent or guardian can review or delete that information.
If you believe a child provided personal information without the required permission, contact contact.larixgames@gmail.com. We will investigate and take appropriate steps, including deletion where required.
11. Security and international processing
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect personal information. No internet transmission or storage method can be guaranteed completely secure.
Our providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers and respect applicable data-protection rights.
12. Your choices and rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of your personal information, withdraw consent, or complain to a data-protection authority. You can unsubscribe from marketing email using the link in any newsletter.
To exercise a privacy right, email contact.larixgames@gmail.com. We will respond in accordance with applicable law.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when LarixGames products, practices, or legal obligations change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted or communicated where required.
