Last Updated: 11/14/2025

Special Sauce Inc. ("Special Sauce," "us," "our," or "we") develops and publishes mobile and web games. This Privacy Policy ("Policy") explains how we collect, use, store, share, and otherwise process the personal information of our users ("users" or "you") in connection with our products, games, websites, and services (collectively, the "Services").

By using our Services, you agree to the terms of this Policy.

1. The Information We Collect

We collect information to provide, improve, and secure our Services. This collection occurs when you provide it directly, automatically when you use our Services, and from third parties.

A. Information You Provide Directly

  • Registration/Account Information: When you create an in-game account, you may provide a username, email address, or connect via a social media account (like Facebook, which provides us with your profile picture, public ID, and friend list). Your username will be public.

  • Customer Support & Communication: The name, email address, and content of your communications when you contact us for support or participate in surveys, contests, or research.

  • Optional Information: Any other information you choose to provide, such as for a user profile, communication preferences, or during events.

B. Information Collected Automatically

We use cookies, SDKs, and other tracking technologies to collect data on your device and usage:

  • Technical Information: IP address, mobile device ID (e.g., IDFA, Google Advertising ID), device type, operating system version, and approximate geographical location (based on IP address).

  • Usage Information (Clickstream Data): Your interactions with the Services, game progress, session duration, in-game actions, and the links or features you click.

  • Payment Information: We do not collect or store your full financial details (like credit card numbers). Your purchases are processed by third-party payment processors (e.g., Apple, Google) who provide us with non-financial transaction details, such as the item purchased, price, and date.

C. Information from Third Parties

We may receive information about you from other sources, including:

  • Social Networking Sites: If you link your game to a third-party platform.

  • Advertising & Analytics Partners: Information used to measure and optimize the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns.

  • Other Players: If another player shares your contact information to invite you to the game.

2. How We Use Your Information (Purpose and Legal Basis)

We use your information for the following purposes and, where required by law (like GDPR), rely on a specified legal basis:

3. Sharing and Disclosure of Your Information

4. Children's Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, if higher). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under this age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately at contact@specialsauce.games. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
