ProjectK Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy for ProjectK

Effective Date: March 24, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to ProjectK. We build and operate mobile and web software products, ranging from interactive digital tools to online multiplayer experiences. Because our focus is on creating engaging, real-time user experiences and community-driven platforms, data plays a vital role in making sure our applications run smoothly, securely, and reliably across the globe.

We believe that you should not need a law degree to understand what happens to your personal information. This policy is designed to explain clearly and honestly what data we collect, why we need it, and how we protect it. It applies to all users of ProjectK’s mobile applications, web products, and related services. If you have any questions after reading this, our team is ready to help—you can reach us directly at the.projekt.k@gmail.com.

2. What We Collect & Why

To provide you with seamless multiplayer experiences and responsive digital tools, we need to understand a bit about you and your device. We organize our data collection by how we receive it, always ensuring we have a valid legal reason for doing so.

Information You Give Us Directly

When you interact with our apps, you often hand us information intentionally. We collect this data primarily to fulfill our contract with you—meaning we need it to actually provide the service you requested.

Account Information: When you create a profile, we may collect your chosen username, email address, and basic account preferences.

Support Communications: If you email us with a bug report or a question, we keep a record of that conversation to help solve your problem and improve our support training.

Information We Collect Automatically

As you use our applications, our systems automatically log certain technical details. We rely on our legitimate interest in maintaining and improving our products to process this data, or in some cases, your explicit consent.

Usage Analytics: We track how you navigate our apps, which features you use most, and where you might experience crashes. This tells us what is working and what needs fixing.

Location Data: We collect general location data (like your city or country based on your IP address) to connect you to the nearest cloud server, ensuring low latency for real-time multiplayer experiences. If we ever need precise GPS location for a specific app feature, we will ask for your explicit consent first.

Device Information: We log your hardware model, operating system version, and unique device identifiers to optimize our software for the phone or tablet you are actually using.

Information from Third Parties

Sometimes we receive insights from outside partners to better understand our user base.

Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to gather aggregated data about how people find and interact with our web and mobile products. This helps us measure the effectiveness of our design and marketing efforts.

3. How We Use Your Information

We do not collect data just to have it. Every piece of information we gather serves a specific purpose in running ProjectK.

Delivering Core Services (Contract): We use your account and technical data to log you in, save your progress, host multiplayer sessions, and keep our applications running smoothly.

Service Improvement (Legitimate Interest): By analyzing usage trends, we figure out which new features to build and which bugs to squash. Your analytics data directly influences our product roadmap.

Communication (Contract & Consent): We use your email to send essential service updates, like security alerts or changes to our terms. If you opt in, we may also send you newsletters or promotional offers.

Security and Fraud Prevention (Legitimate Interest): We monitor account behavior and network traffic to detect cheating in multiplayer environments, prevent unauthorized access, and protect our community from malicious actors.

Legal Compliance (Legal Obligation): In rare cases, we must process your data to comply with tax laws, respond to valid legal requests, or defend our legal rights.

4. When We Share Your Information

We believe in keeping your data as close to home as possible. However, modern software requires specialized infrastructure. When we do share your information, it is strictly limited to the following scenarios:

Essential Service Providers: We share data with trusted companies that make our services possible. This includes our cloud hosting providers (who store the data and run our multiplayer servers) and analytics providers like Google Analytics. These partners are legally bound to protect your data and can only use it for the specific tasks we assign them.

Legal Requirements: If a court, law enforcement agency, or government body issues a valid, binding request for data, we will comply. We will always attempt to notify you before handing over your data, unless the law strictly forbids us from doing so.

Business Transitions: If ProjectK is ever acquired by, or merged with, another company, your data would likely be transferred as part of that transition. We will notify you before your personal information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

With Your Consent: If we want to share your data for any reason not listed here, we will ask for your permission first.

To be absolutely clear: We never sell your personal data to data brokers, advertisers, or anyone else.

5. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live—including under the GDPR in Europe, the CCPA/CPRA in California, and PIPEDA in Canada—you have powerful rights regarding your personal information. We extend these core rights to all ProjectK users globally.

Access Your Data: You can ask us for a copy of the personal data we hold about you. We will provide this within 30 days of your request.

Correct Inaccuracies: If your information is wrong or outdated, let us know and we will fix it.

Delete Your Data: You have the "right to be forgotten." You can ask us to erase your account and associated personal data, and we will do so unless we have a strict legal obligation to keep it.

Port Your Data: You can request your data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format so you can transfer it to another service.

Opt-Out of Marketing: Every marketing email we send contains a one-click unsubscribe link. You can also change your preferences in your account settings.

Withdraw Consent: If you previously gave us permission to process your data (like precise location tracking), you can change your mind at any time. This won't affect the legality of anything we did before you withdrew consent.

To exercise any of these rights, simply email us at the.projekt.k@gmail.com. If you feel we have not respected your privacy rights, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

6. Data Security

We take the security of your data seriously. We use industry-standard encryption to protect data while it is traveling between your device and our servers, and we implement strict access controls so that only authorized ProjectK personnel can access our databases.

However, we want to be honest with you: no system connected to the internet is 100% secure. While we work hard to protect our infrastructure, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You play a crucial role in this, too. Please use strong, unique passwords for your accounts and keep your mobile devices secure.

If we ever experience a data breach that compromises your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant authorities within the timeframes required by law (typically within 72 hours of discovery), outlining exactly what happened and what steps you should take.

7. Data Retention

We keep your personal information only for as long as we actually need it to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy.

Active Account Data: We retain your profile and core account data for the lifespan of your account, plus a brief 30-day buffer after deletion to allow for accidental deletion recovery.

Technical Logs: Server logs and usage analytics are typically anonymized or deleted after 12 months. We don't need ancient data to understand current app performance.

Financial Records: If you make purchases through our platforms, we are legally required by tax authorities to keep transaction records for up to 7 years.

Marketing Preferences: We keep a record of your opt-out requests indefinitely to ensure we never accidentally email you again.

8. Cookies & Tracking

Because we operate both mobile apps and web platforms, we use a mix of tracking technologies. On the web, we use cookies; in our mobile apps, we use Software Development Kits (SDKs) and local device storage.

We use these tools primarily to keep you logged in, remember your preferences, and gather performance data via Google Analytics. When you first visit our web platforms, you will be presented with a banner allowing you to accept or reject non-essential cookies. On mobile, you can manage tracking permissions directly through your iOS or Android device settings.

9. Children's Privacy

Our interactive applications and multiplayer experiences are built for a general audience. We do not intentionally target or knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or 16 in certain European jurisdictions).

If you are a parent or guardian and you believe your child has provided us with personal data without your consent, please contact us immediately. If we discover that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under the applicable age limit, we will take immediate steps to delete that information from our servers.

10. International Transfers

ProjectK operates globally. To provide fast, reliable multiplayer experiences and app performance, we use cloud infrastructure located in various regions around the world. This means your data may be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside of where you live (such as the United States or the European Union).

When we move your data across borders, we ensure it remains protected to the standards outlined in this policy. For users in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK, we rely on legally recognized safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or adequacy decisions, to ensure your data rights travel with your information.

11. Changes to this Policy

Technology moves fast, and our business will evolve. When we launch new features or change how we handle data, we will update this Privacy Policy.

If we make significant changes that affect your rights, we won't just quietly change the text. We will notify you proactively—usually via an in-app notification or an email to the address associated with your account—before the changes take effect. The "Effective Date" at the top of this page will always indicate when the policy was last revised.

12. Contact Us

Privacy shouldn't be a one-way conversation. If you have questions about this policy, want to exercise your data rights, or just want to understand more about how our multiplayer infrastructure handles your information, we are here to help.
