Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using our app or Web site:

This Privacy Policy is applicable to baazii.com and sets out our policy on the gathering and use of information on this site and in our mobile apps.

Baazii.com is committed to providing a safe web site for visitors of all ages and has implemented this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy. We comply with Canadian Federal and Provincial privacy laws and regulations including the Personal Information and Electronic Documents Act.

There may be links from our Site to other web sites; note that this Privacy Policy applies only to our Site and not to web sites of other companies or organizations to which our Site may be linked. You must check on any linked sites for the privacy policy that applies to that site and/or make any necessary inquiries in respect of that privacy policy with the operator of the linked site. These links to third party websites are provided as a convenience and are for informational purposes only. We do not endorse, and are not responsible for, these linked websites.

Your use of our site or app signifies your acknowledgement and consent to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not continue to use our Site. Your continued use of the Site signifies your acceptance of these terms and any changes in effect at the time of use.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

Personal Information is information about you that identifies you as an individual, for example, your name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number. We collect the following information about you:

The nickname you choose to present youreslf with to other players at your table. You are not required to use your real name. Additionally, you have the option to modify your nickname at the outset of each new game.
Optionally, a player may opt to sign up with their e-mail address in order to track their progress in terms of experience points and player level. The user's e-mail address is only used for user authentication and identification on the servers. It will not be accessible by other players nor will be shared with any third parties.
Third-party authentication and Refresh tokens used to identify the signed-in users to the server.
A randomly generated unique ID. To maintain an active session through network changes and interruptions while you are in a game, a unique ID is generated and stored on your device's local storage the first time you join a game.
The player's selected avatar, if any.
The device type and platform. General information about the type of the device, e.g. iphone, android, windows desktop, and the platform, e.g. web, ios, android, are collected and used in aggregate form for analytical purposes in order to improve user experiece.

The above information, as well as the player statistics needed for the game operation are stored in a secure database. If you have signed up with your email address, you can request to delete your account and all its associated data at any time. The precess is described in the "Deleting Your Account" section below.

User authentication of signed-in players and all associated operations such as e-mail verification and password reset are performed independently by an industry standard authentication service. Deleting your account will also remove your information from the authentication server.

Apart from the random ID, the nickname, and, in case of registered users, the e-mail address, which are shared with the server, the following customization settings are stored on the user's browser local storage. These settings are not shared with the server:

Your preferred language for the UI and the messages.
Your preference to show/hide tips.
Your preference to enable/disable sound effects.

You can limit the storage of this data on your browser by using your browser's private browsing mode or by clearing the site data from your browser after the game.

Lastly, as with most Web sites, we automatically gather general information about your computer such as your browser type, referring/exit pages, and operating system for analytical purposes. See the "Cookies and Tracking Technologies" section below for more details.

We use security measures to protect your information: Weather you choose to play as a guest player or sign in with your email address, your information is transferred to our servers using secure industry-standard protocols (like HTTPS) that encrypt data in transit. This helps protect your information from unauthorized access during transmission.

Deleting Your Account

You can request to delete your account either through the app or at baazii.com website . This will remove all your account informatoin, including your email address and player records like experience points and player level.

The user interface for deleting your account is identical both from within the app and on the external link, which is in fact the web-based version of the game. To delete your account, press the account icon on the top right corner of the screen. This will open the account information dialog, on which you can see the "Delete your account" link. Press the link to open the account deletion page, with step-by-step instructions and a button to send a request to our team to delete your account.
