PRIVACY POLICY

The Short Version

1. Who We Are

Roy G Biv is developed by Thought Bomb Studios. This Privacy Policy applies to the Roy G Biv game and the roygbiv website.

2. What We Collect

Game & Session Data

When you play Roy G Biv, the game may collect and transmit gameplay statistics including:

• Scores, levels reached, and character used
• Paint percentages and items painted
• Enemies defeated and stage completion data
• Difficulty mode, time played, and session duration
• Weapon usage and pickup stats
• Multiplayer session info (number of players, co-op stats)

This data is anonymous by default. It is identified only by a random session ID and is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

Profile Data (Optional)

If you choose to claim a profile, you may provide a display name or connect an account. When you do, your previously anonymous game stats become associated with your chosen profile and are displayed publicly (e.g., on leaderboards). You can unclaim your profile at any time, which will revert your stats to anonymous.

What We Do NOT Collect

• Real names, email addresses, or phone numbers (unless you provide them for a profile)
• Payment or financial information
• Location data, IP addresses, or device fingerprints
• Browsing history or cross-site tracking data
• Data from children knowingly (see Children's Privacy below)

3. How We Use Your Data

• Public leaderboards & stats: Game stats may be displayed publicly on our website and in-game. Anonymous stats show no identifying information. Claimed profiles display your chosen display name.
• Game improvement: Aggregated, anonymous gameplay data helps us balance difficulty, fix bugs, and improve the game.
• Community features: If you claim a profile, your stats contribute to community leaderboards and achievements.

4. We Do Not Sell Your Data

We do not sell, rent, lease, or trade your personal information or gameplay data to any third party. We do not share your data with advertisers. We do not use your data for targeted advertising. Full stop.

5. Public Game Stats

Game and session statistics are made publicly available through our website and in-game displays. This includes:

• High scores and leaderboard rankings
• Aggregate community statistics (total enemies defeated, total paint applied, etc.)
• Individual session stats (anonymous unless you have claimed a profile)

If you have not claimed a profile, your stats appear with no identifying information attached. If you have claimed a profile, your chosen display name appears alongside your stats.

6. Data Storage & Security

Game stats are stored on secure servers. We use industry-standard security measures to protect the data we store. Because game stats are largely non-personal and anonymous, the risk profile is minimal. We retain game stats indefinitely to maintain leaderboards and historical records.

7. Your Rights & Choices

• Don't claim a profile: Your stats remain fully anonymous.
• Unclaim your profile: Reverts your stats to anonymous at any time.
• Request deletion: You can request deletion of your profile and associated personal data by contacting us.
• Access your data: You can request a copy of any data associated with your profile.

8. Children's Privacy

Roy G Biv is a game designed to be enjoyed by players of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). Game stats collected from all players are anonymous by default. Profile claiming requires conscious opt-in and is not required to play the game.

9. Third-Party Services

This website uses Google Fonts for typography. Google may collect basic usage data through font delivery. We do not use any other third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the game or website after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
