Privacy Policy
KingBomb ("the App") is published by Serene Technologies Pte. Ltd. ("we", "us"). This policy explains what information the App handles and what we do with it. The short version: you can play every match and every drill without an account and without sending us anything; if you sign in to add friends, chat or play at a private table, we store the little we need to make those features work, we never sell it, and you can delete all of it from inside the App.
1. Playing without an account
Matches against the computer, the training table, your record and your settings live only on your device. Nothing is sent to us. Deleting the App deletes this data. We use no third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.
2. Information we store when you sign in
Signing in (Continue as guest, Sign in with Apple, or a phone number where offered) creates an account on our servers so that friends can find you, messages can be delivered and private tables can be shared. We store:
- Account identifiers — a random user id; with Sign in with Apple, the identifier Apple gives us for the App (we may receive a relay email address, which we do not use); with phone sign-in, the verified phone number;
- Profile — the nickname you choose and your avatar (a cartoon picture by default);
- Social graph — who you added as a friend, whom you blocked, and invites you sent or accepted;
- Messages — the text of direct messages you send and receive, so they can be shown to both sides and reviewed if someone reports them;
- Gameplay record — your win count, so friends can see it;
- Device token — if you allow notifications, the token Apple assigns your device, used only to deliver message and invite notifications;
- Technical logs — IP address and request timestamps, kept briefly for security and abuse prevention.
Private-table matches run on the host's device; the server only relays moves between the players at the table and keeps no record of the hands played.
3. How we use it
Only to provide the features above, to keep the service safe (rate limits, blocking, acting on reports) and to answer your support requests. We do not sell personal information, we do not use it for advertising, and we do not share it with third parties except service providers that host our servers (Amazon Web Services, Singapore region) or deliver messages on our behalf (Apple Push Notification service; an SMS provider when phone sign-in is used), each bound to process it only for us.
4. Messages between players
Direct messages are private between the two players and are not read by us in the ordinary course. Anyone can block another player or report a message or profile from inside the App; a report sends us the content concerned so we can review it, remove it and, where necessary, suspend the account. By default strangers can send you one message request; you choose whether to reply.
5. Retention and deletion
Account data is kept while the account exists. Delete account (tap your name in the lobby → Delete account) removes your profile, friends, messages and tokens from our servers immediately; your Apple authorization is revoked where Apple permits. Server logs are deleted within 30 days. Local data on your device is yours to delete by removing the App.
6. Children
The App is a card game with no real-money play. The online features (accounts, chat, friends) are intended for players aged 13 and over; we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.
7. Your rights
You can see and change your nickname and avatar in the App, export your messages by contacting us, and delete everything with Delete account. Residents of the EEA, UK, California and other regions with privacy laws have the rights those laws provide (access, correction, deletion, portability, objection); write to us and we will act within the legal time limits.
8. Information Apple may provide
If you install the App through the App Store or join a TestFlight beta, Apple may share aggregated, anonymous statistics (such as install counts or crash reports) with us under Apple's terms.
9. Changes
We will post any changes on this page and update the effective date above; material changes will also be shown in the App.
