Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Streets & Popes. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you visit our website or use our mobile application and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.

2. The Data We Collect

Because Streets & Popes is a location-based game, we collect specific data to enable gameplay features:

• Location Data: We collect precise location data (GPS) when the app is running in the foreground to unlock location-based puzzles. We do not track your location in the background unless you specifically enable features that require it (e.g., "Nearby Mission Alerts").
• Profile Data: Your username, avatar, and game progress (completed missions, badges earned).
• Device Data: Internet protocol (IP) address, device type, and operating system version.

3. How We Use Your Data

We only use your data to:

• Verify your physical presence at mission checkpoints.
• Maintain the global leaderboard and verify high scores.
• Detect and prevent cheating or location spoofing.
• Improve our map accuracy and mission quality.

4. Data Security

We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way. We limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.

5. Your Rights

Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data, including the right to request access, correction, erasure, restriction, transfer, to object to processing, to portability of data, and (where the lawful ground of processing is consent) to withdraw consent.
