Who we are and what this policy covers
Mr Fisher Studio is responsible for Where Embers Stay. This policy explains how information is handled when you use the game and contact us about it. For privacy questions or requests, email info@spintegra.pro.
This policy covers the game, including development and test builds. Advertising availability and privacy choices can vary by platform, region and build. Development builds may display test advertisements. This policy does not mean that every planned platform is already available.
Your progress stays on your device
The game does not require a player account. Your journey, inventory, camp, gold, best record, tutorial progress and settings are saved locally. The current game does not upload these save files to Mr Fisher Studio or provide a studio-hosted cloud-save service.
Your operating system or device-backup provider may include local app data in backups according to your own settings. We do not control those backups. The game does not ask you to provide your name, email address or date of birth to play. Information you choose to send to support is handled separately.
Advertising and Appodeal mediation
New iOS test builds of Where Embers Stay use Appodeal mediation for optional rewarded advertisements, with Google AdMob, BidMachine and Appodeal IAB advertising components. Earlier test builds may use Google AdMob directly. You can choose to watch an available advertisement for a stated in-game benefit, such as finishing preparation or returning after defeat. Ordinary gameplay does not require you to watch a rewarded advertisement.
In the Appodeal test integration, the advertising SDK starts when you first request an advertisement or open advertising privacy choices. After it starts, it may connect and preload advertisements before you choose to watch another video. Choosing not to watch an ad is therefore not the same as disabling every SDK network request. Advertisements require an internet connection; offline play does not provide online ad rewards.
Depending on your device, permissions, consent and SDK configuration, Appodeal, Google, BidMachine and advertising demand partners may receive your IP address (and infer an approximate location), device or advertising identifiers, app and device information, ad impressions and interactions, and crash or performance diagnostics. This information supports ad delivery, measurement, analytics, service improvement and fraud prevention. Ad personalization depends on the applicable settings and permissions. Non-personalized ads can still involve technical data processing.
The current game has no separate studio-operated gameplay analytics service. This does not exclude advertising measurement or diagnostics performed by the advertising SDK. We do not send your saved journey or inventory to advertising providers as part of an ad request. The current integration does not add Firebase, AppsFlyer or Meta analytics services.
Earlier direct-AdMob builds may make a separate Google connectivity check, exposing an IP address but no save data. The new Appodeal integration does not make that separate check. The game does not request access to precise device location for advertising.
Your advertising and privacy choices
You can decline optional rewarded advertisements. Appodeal uses Stack Consent Manager with Google UMP support to manage region-specific privacy messages during advertising initialization. The choices actually available depend on your region, device and build. We do not treat permission to watch a rewarded advertisement as blanket consent for unrelated data use.
On supported Apple devices, you can review tracking permissions in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking. Device advertising controls and Google advertising settings offer additional choices, where available. Turning off personalization or tracking does not necessarily stop all advertising-related data processing.
In iOS builds with Appodeal, open Settings > Ad privacy to request the available consent or opt-out form. Availability depends on the region and service configuration; a connection is required. Older direct-AdMob builds do not have this entry point. Contact info@spintegra.pro about information handled by Mr Fisher Studio. For information independently controlled by advertising providers, use their linked policies and controls. Deleting a local save does not withdraw advertising consent or erase provider-held data.
When you contact us
If you email us, we receive your email address, message and any files or device details you choose to provide. We use them to respond, investigate a problem and handle your privacy request. Please do not send passwords, payment details or other unnecessary sensitive information.
Email and hosting providers may process information needed to deliver and protect these services. We may disclose information where required by law or where reasonably necessary to protect people, investigate abuse or establish, exercise or defend legal claims. We do not sell the support messages you send us.
Why information is processed
We use local game data to provide progress and preferences, support correspondence to answer requests, and advertising services to fund the game and deliver optional rewards. Where data-protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on providing the service you request, legitimate interests such as support and security, legal obligations, or consent where required. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests and withdraw consent without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing.
Appodeal, Google and BidMachine explain their processing purposes and legal grounds in their privacy documentation. Advertising providers and service providers may process information in countries other than your own, under the safeguards and transfer arrangements described in their policies.
Retention and deletion
Local saves and preferences remain on your device until the game replaces them or you remove them. Starting a new journey replaces journey progress but keeps gold, the best record and settings. To remove all local app data, use your operating system's app-data deletion controls or delete the app and its data. Offloading an app can keep its data. Manage device or cloud backups separately.
We retain support correspondence while needed to resolve the request, handle related follow-up, protect against abuse or meet legal obligations. We assess retention by the nature of the request and these purposes rather than keeping every message indefinitely. You can ask us to delete information we hold about you; legal obligations or legitimate dispute-resolution needs may require some information to be retained.
Advertising providers determine retention for information they process under their policies. Removing the game or its local saves does not automatically delete information previously received by advertising providers. Their privacy controls and retention information are linked below.
Your rights and children's privacy
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of personal information, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent, or complain to your local data-protection authority. Email info@spintegra.pro to make a request. We may need enough information to verify the request safely. We cannot retrieve local save files that have never been sent to us.
Parents or guardians who believe a child has sent us personal information should contact us so we can investigate and handle deletion where appropriate. Do not send a child's identifying details unless needed for the request. Platform age ratings, parental controls and applicable consent requirements continue to apply; a store age rating is not consent to advertising data processing.
External links and security
The game includes links to our website and community services such as Discord, Telegram, YouTube and TikTok. Opening a link takes you to a service with its own privacy practices. Joining a community or using a launch-notification bot is separate from playing the game.
We use reasonable measures to protect information under our control, but no storage or transmission method is completely secure. Keep your device secure and avoid including unnecessary personal information in support attachments.
Updates and contact
We will update this page when relevant game features, providers or data practices change and revise the effective date. Where required, material changes will be brought to your attention or consent requested. Contact Mr Fisher Studio at info@spintegra.pro with questions or requests.
