Gladiator RPGs and space strategy for iOS & Android

This Privacy Policy explains how Kimon Games collects, uses and shares information when you play our mobile and web games, contact us, or visit kimongames.org (together, the "Services"). It applies to:

• Dominus: Gladiator Arena RPG
• Gladiator Arena: Rise
• Gladiator Arena: Sword & Glory
• Space Pirates: Conquer

1. Who we are

Kimon Games is an independent game studio. Kimon Games is the data controller responsible for the personal data processed through the Services. You can reach us at [email protected].

2. Information we collect

Information you give us

• Account details: email address, username or player name, and the player ID we assign to you. If you sign in with a platform account (such as Google Play Games, Game Center, Sign in with Apple or Google Sign-In), we receive the account identifier and any details that platform shares with your permission.
• Player content: chat messages, private messages, clan names and other content you create or send in our games.
• Support messages: what you write to us and any screenshots or files you attach.

Information collected automatically

• Gameplay data: progress, level, items, battle results, rankings, and how you use game features.
• Purchase history: which in-app items you bought and the store transaction ID. Payments are processed by Apple or Google; we never receive your card or bank details.
• Device and technical data: device model, operating system, language, app version, IP address, and device identifiers such as an install or app-instance ID.
• Advertising identifiers: in games that show ads, the Google Advertising ID (Android) or Identifier for Advertisers (iOS), only where your device settings and consent allow it (see section 4).
• Diagnostics: crash logs and performance data.

Information we do not collect

Our games do not access your precise location, contacts, photos, camera, microphone or health data, and we do not ask for sensitive personal data such as your ethnicity, religion or political views. Please do not share such information in chat.

3. How we use information and our legal bases

• To run the games and your account (saving progress, matchmaking, PvP, clans, chat, delivering purchases). Legal basis: performance of our contract with you.
• To keep the games fair and secure (detecting cheating, fraud, abuse and account takeovers, and moderating chat). Legal basis: our legitimate interests and, where applicable, legal obligations.
• To fix and improve the games (crash analysis, balancing, understanding which features are used). Legal basis: our legitimate interests.
• To show ads in games that contain ads. Personalized ads are shown only with your consent where the law requires it; otherwise ads are non-personalized. Legal basis: consent (personalized ads) or legitimate interests (non-personalized ads).
• To answer support requests and send service messages (for example about your account or a purchase). Legal basis: contract and legitimate interests.
• To comply with the law (tax and accounting records, responding to lawful requests). Legal basis: legal obligation.

We do not use your data for automated decisions that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.

4. Advertising (Google AdMob)

Some of our games (currently Dominus: Gladiator Arena RPG and Gladiator Arena: Rise) show ads served by Google AdMob. Gladiator Arena: Sword & Glory and Space Pirates: Conquer do not show third-party ads. When ads are shown, Google may collect your advertising identifier, IP address, device information and ad interactions to deliver, measure and, with your consent, personalize ads. Learn how Google uses this data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

• EEA, UK and Switzerland: we ask for your consent through Google's consent message before personalized ads or related data processing take place. You can change your choice later from the game's privacy settings, where available, or by contacting us.
• iOS: we access your device's advertising identifier only if you allow tracking in Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt. You can change this anytime in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• Android: you can delete or reset your advertising ID in Settings > Privacy > Ads (or Settings > Google > Ads).

5. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information for money. We share it only with:

• Service providers that act on our behalf: our hosting provider (servers located in Germany, EU), Cloudflare (network delivery and security), and Google and Apple (app stores, sign-in, game services and payment processing).
• Advertising partners: Google AdMob, as described in section 4.
• Other players: your player name, avatar, rankings, clan membership and chat messages are visible to other players.
• Legal and safety reasons: when required by law or a valid legal request, or to protect the rights, safety and security of our players, our Services or others.
• Business transfers: if our games or business are sold or transferred, in which case this policy will continue to protect your data.

6. International transfers

Our game servers are located in the European Union. Some providers, such as Google and Cloudflare, may process data in other countries, including the United States. When personal data is transferred outside the EEA or the UK, we rely on safeguards permitted by applicable law, such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions.

7. How long we keep data

• Account and gameplay data: while your account is active. When you delete your account, we delete or anonymize it within 30 days.
• Purchase records: as long as tax and accounting laws require.
• Server and security logs: for a limited time, normally no longer than 90 days, unless needed to investigate abuse.
• Support messages: up to 2 years after your last message.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent at any time (this does not affect processing before the withdrawal).

• EEA, UK and Switzerland (GDPR): you can also complain to the data protection authority in your country.
• California and other US states: you can request to know, delete and correct your personal information, and opt out of "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising by declining personalized ads (see section 4) or by contacting us. We will not discriminate against you for using these rights.

To make a request, email [email protected] from the address linked to your account, or include your player ID. We may need to verify your identity and will respond within the time required by law, normally within one month.

9. Deleting your account

You can delete your account and its data from the game's settings, or by emailing us. Step-by-step instructions are on our account deletion page.

10. Children

Our games are not directed to children under 13 (or the higher minimum age in your country, such as 16 in some EEA countries). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children below that age. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Security

We protect your data with encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS), access controls and restricted server access. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and will notify you and the authorities of a data breach where the law requires.

12. This website

kimongames.org does not use analytics or advertising cookies. Our network provider Cloudflare may set strictly necessary security cookies and processes your IP address to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will change the "Last updated" date above and, for significant changes, notify you in the game or on this website.

3. Your account

You are responsible for keeping your login details safe and for all activity on your account. Give accurate information and tell us at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized use. Accounts are personal: you may not sell, buy, rent or share them.

4. Rules of conduct

You agree not to:

• cheat, use exploits, bots, macros, modified clients or other unauthorized software;

• spam, advertise, or collect other players' personal information;
• use the Services in violation of any law.

We may moderate chat and remove content, and we may warn, mute, suspend or ban accounts that break these rules.

5. Virtual items and in-app purchases

• Our games may offer virtual currency and items ("Virtual Items"). You receive a limited license to use them in the game; they are not your property and have no value outside the game.
• Virtual Items cannot be exchanged for real money and cannot be transferred between accounts or games.
• Purchases are processed by Apple or Google under their terms. Refunds are handled by the store you bought from, except where the law requires otherwise.
• Where the law allows, you agree that delivery of digital content starts immediately after purchase and that you lose your right of withdrawal once delivery begins.
• We may change, rebalance or remove Virtual Items and their prices. If we permanently shut down a game, we will announce it in advance where reasonably possible.

6. Advertising

Some games show ads, including optional rewarded ads that give in-game rewards. We are not responsible for the content of third-party ads or the products they promote.

7. Third-party services

Our games use services provided by others, such as Apple and Google sign-in, the app stores and payment systems. Your use of those services is also governed by their own terms and privacy policies, and we are not responsible for them. Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience only.

8. Player content

You keep the rights you have in the content you create (such as chat messages and clan names). You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to host, display, reproduce and moderate it as needed to operate and promote the Services. You confirm that your content does not infringe anyone's rights and follows these Terms.

9. Feedback

If you send us ideas, suggestions or bug reports, we may use them to improve our games without any obligation or payment to you.

10. Intellectual property

The games and all their content, including software, artwork, characters, music, text and trademarks, are owned by Kimon Games or its licensors and are protected by law. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell or create derivative works from them except as these Terms allow.

11. Availability and changes

We update the games regularly and may add, change or remove features. Online features require an internet connection and may be unavailable at times for maintenance or for reasons outside our control.

12. Suspension and termination

You can stop using the Services and delete your account at any time (see Delete account). We may suspend or close your account if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, if required by law, or to protect players or the Services. Where reasonable, we will tell you why. Lost Virtual Items are not refunded when an account is closed for breaking these Terms, unless the law requires otherwise.

13. Disclaimer

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent permitted by law, we do not promise that they will be uninterrupted, error-free or meet every expectation.

14. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, Kimon Games is not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for loss of profits, data or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Services is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or USD 50. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for intent, gross negligence, death or personal injury, or any liability that cannot be limited by law.

15. Consumer rights

If you are a consumer, you keep all rights that the mandatory laws of your country of residence give you. Nothing in these Terms takes those rights away.

16. Resolving disputes

If you have a problem with our games, please contact us first at [email protected]. Most issues can be solved quickly this way, and we will do our best to find a fair solution. Nothing in these Terms limits any right you have under the mandatory laws of your country, including your right to bring a claim where the law allows.

17. Additional terms for Apple devices

If you downloaded a game from the Apple App Store: (a) these Terms are between you and Kimon Games, not Apple, and Kimon Games, not Apple, is responsible for the game and its content; (b) Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support; (c) if the game fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, which will refund the purchase price (if any), and Apple has no other warranty obligation to the extent permitted by law; (d) Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the game, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, consumer protection or intellectual property claims; (e) you confirm you are not located in a country subject to a US government embargo and are not on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties; and (f) Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

18. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will change the "Last updated" date and, for significant changes, notify you in the game or on this website before they take effect. If you keep using the Services after that, the updated Terms apply.

19. General

• Severability: if any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
• No waiver: our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of that right.
• Force majeure: we are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events outside our reasonable control, such as network outages, natural disasters or actions of authorities.
• Assignment: you may not transfer your rights under these Terms. We may transfer ours, for example if our games are sold, without reducing your rights.
