Privacy Policy for Walk and Conquer

Walk and Conquer is operated by Zorbey Torunoğlu. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, retained, and deleted when you use the Walk and Conquer mobile apps and related services.

Walk and Conquer is a real-world activity and territory game. Location, walk, profile, and gameplay data are necessary for core features such as active walks, maps, territory ownership, achievements, and leaderboards.

Account and profile information may include your authentication account identifier, display name, avatar, profile colors, notification preferences, FCM push token, and settings such as nearby visibility.

Activity and gameplay information may include active-walk location samples, route and distance data, timing, speed, accuracy, sensor and anti-abuse signals, walk summaries, territories, territory centroids, achievements, XP, streaks, cooldowns, leaderboard entries, conquests, finalization records, and finalization input snapshots.

Optional body metrics may include weight, height, age, and gender when you choose to save them. These metrics are used for calorie estimates. They can be left blank or cleared in Settings, and default values shown in the interface are not saved unless you explicitly save them.

Request, diagnostic, and abuse-prevention logs may include technical information such as timestamps, IP address, user agent, device or app details, account identifiers, request paths, and error details.

We use information to operate accounts, record walks, calculate territory and achievements, show leaderboards, power realtime map features, estimate calories when body metrics are provided, send notifications, prevent cheating or abuse, troubleshoot issues, improve reliability, and provide support.

Walk and Conquer does not sell or rent personal data and does not use your data for third-party advertising or ad tracking.

Nearby visibility is off by default. If you enable it, your active walk presence and profile information may be visible to nearby players while the feature is active.

You can turn nearby visibility off in Settings. Turning it off stops sharing your active nearby presence through that feature, but location data may still be processed for active walk, anti-abuse, map, and territory functionality.

Information may be processed by service providers that help run the app, including authentication, push notifications, cloud hosting, databases, Redis or cache infrastructure, file storage, maps, diagnostics, and app store platforms.

We may disclose information if required by law, to protect users or the service, to investigate fraud or abuse, or as part of a transfer of the app or service subject to appropriate protections.

Account and gameplay data is kept while your account is active. When you delete your account, primary active-store data is deleted immediately from systems under our control, including your profile, avatar files, FCM tokens, live positions, leaderboards, achievements, walks, finalization records and snapshots, active Redis state, owned territories, and territory centroids.

Backups and disaster-recovery copies may lag behind primary deletion and expire within 14 days. Request, diagnostic, and operational logs are retained for up to 30 days unless a longer period is required for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or dispute handling.

Walk and Conquer is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information, contact us so we can take appropriate action.

We use technical and organizational safeguards appropriate for the service, but no online service can be guaranteed to be perfectly secure.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The effective date above shows when this version took effect.
