Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 3, 2026
Overview
Studio Rouleau Inc. ("Studio Rouleau," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our websites or use our games and related services.
This policy applies to the Studio Rouleau website and to our games, including System Ascension: Idle Core, Idle Drops, Mind Construct, Force Escape, and Large Print Word Games.
Controller
For purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR") and similar privacy laws, Studio Rouleau Inc. is the controller of personal information that we collect and decide how to use. You can contact us at info@studio-rouleau.com.
We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer. If we are required to appoint an EU or UK representative, we will update this policy with the representative's contact information.
Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
- Information you provide: information you send to us when contacting us for support, business inquiries, feedback, or other communications.
- Website information: IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, approximate location, and similar usage information.
- Game and device information: device model, operating system, app version, language, country or region, platform identifiers, advertising identifiers, authentication identifiers, gameplay events, progress, saved game data, cloud save data, session length, crash logs, and performance data.
- Purchase information: information that a platform such as Apple, Google, or Steam provides to confirm purchases, subscriptions, entitlements, or refunds. We do not receive your full payment card details.
- Advertising and analytics information: information collected by analytics providers, advertising networks, attribution providers, and similar partners, which may include device identifiers, ad identifiers, impressions, clicks, installs, and engagement events.
How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve our websites, games, and services.
- Provide gameplay features, authenticate players, save progress, support cloud storage features, verify purchases, and troubleshoot technical issues.
- Understand how players use our games and how visitors use our website.
- Measure performance, diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and improve compatibility.
- Serve, measure, and improve advertising where ads are included in a game.
- Respond to support requests, questions, and other communications.
- Protect against fraud, abuse, security incidents, and violations of our terms or policies.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights.
Ads, Analytics, and In-App Purchases
Some of our games may include advertising, analytics, in-app purchases, or similar services. These services may be provided by third-party partners and platform providers. They may collect or receive information from your device, including advertising identifiers, IP address, device information, app activity, and interaction data.
In-app purchases and paid downloads are processed by the platform where you obtained the game, such as Apple App Store, Google Play, or Steam. Those platforms process your payment information under their own privacy policies and terms.
You may be able to limit ad tracking, reset your advertising identifier, manage app permissions, or disable personalized ads through your device, platform, or browser settings.
Third-Party Services and SDKs
Our websites and games may use third-party services, platform services, and software development kits ("SDKs"). The specific services used can vary by game, platform, region, and version. These services may collect, receive, or process information as described in this policy and in their own privacy policies.
- Unity / Unity Gaming Services: used for game services that may include authentication, cloud storage, cloud saves, analytics, diagnostics, ads, remote configuration, and related operational services.
- Google AdMob: used in games that show ads, including ad delivery, ad measurement, frequency capping, fraud prevention, and personalized or non-personalized advertising where available.
- Google Play Services: used for Android platform functionality that may include purchase verification, app integrity, achievements, leaderboards, saved games, authentication, analytics, diagnostics, and platform services.
- Apple Game Center / Apple App Store services: used where applicable for iOS platform functionality, purchases, subscriptions, achievements, leaderboards, authentication, app analytics, crash reporting, and store services.
- Steamworks: used for Steam platform functionality that may include authentication, purchases, achievements, cloud saves, leaderboards, multiplayer or community features, anti-fraud, analytics, and crash reporting.
The privacy disclosures shown on the Apple App Store and Google Play are intended to reflect the data practices of each specific game, including the SDKs and platform services used in that game. Because features and SDKs may vary by game, platform, region, and version, the disclosures for one game may differ from another.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Our website and third-party services may use cookies, local storage, pixels, analytics tools, log files, and similar technologies. These technologies help us understand website traffic, remember preferences, improve performance, and protect the website.
You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may affect some website features.
How We Share Information
We may share information with:
- Service providers: companies that help us host websites, operate games, analyze usage, deliver ads, process support requests, detect crashes, and maintain security.
- Unity services: Unity services that help provide game functionality, authentication, cloud storage, analytics, diagnostics, ads, and related operational services.
- Platform providers: Apple, Google, Steam, and other stores or platforms used to distribute, update, purchase, or play our games.
- Advertising and analytics partners: partners that help measure installs, impressions, clicks, engagement, and game performance.
- Legal and safety recipients: parties we reasonably believe must receive information to comply with law, protect rights, prevent fraud, respond to legal process, or protect users and the public.
- Business transfers: parties involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or similar transaction involving Studio Rouleau.
We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. Some privacy laws define certain advertising or analytics disclosures as a "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising. Where required, you may have the right to opt out of those activities.
Legal Bases for Processing
If you are in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another region where a legal basis is required, we rely on the following legal bases:
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Operating our website, games, accounts, authentication, cloud storage, saved progress, platform features, and customer support. | Performance of a contract with you, or our legitimate interests in providing and maintaining our services. |
| Analytics, diagnostics, crash reporting, security, fraud prevention, service improvement, and compatibility testing. | Our legitimate interests in understanding, securing, debugging, and improving our website and games. |
| Advertising, attribution, ad measurement, and personalized advertising where available. | Your consent where required, or our legitimate interests where consent is not required by applicable law. |
| In-app purchases, paid downloads, purchase verification, refunds, tax, accounting, and legal compliance. | Performance of a contract, compliance with legal obligations, and our legitimate interests in preventing fraud and managing purchases. |
| Responding to legal requests, enforcing our rights, and protecting users, Studio Rouleau, and the public. | Compliance with legal obligations and our legitimate interests in legal protection and safety. |
Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw consent at any time through the relevant device, platform, game, or browser settings, or by contacting us. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred before withdrawal.
Retention
We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to operate our games, provide support, improve services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the service involved.
Examples of retention periods include:
- Support emails and privacy requests: kept for as long as needed to respond, maintain business records, and document compliance, typically up to three years unless a longer period is needed.
- Analytics and gameplay events: kept for product analytics, balancing, troubleshooting, and trend analysis, typically in identifiable or pseudonymous form for up to 26 months unless aggregated, anonymized, or needed for security or legal reasons.
- Crash logs and diagnostics: kept while needed to diagnose, reproduce, and fix technical issues, typically up to 24 months.
- Authentication, cloud saves, and account records: kept while your account or game profile remains active and for a reasonable period afterward for backup, recovery, fraud prevention, legal, and platform compliance purposes.
- Purchase and transaction records: kept as needed for purchase verification, refunds, fraud prevention, tax, accounting, and legal obligations, which may require retention for several years.
- Advertising records: kept according to our advertising partners' retention practices and as needed for measurement, fraud prevention, billing, and compliance.
- Aggregated or de-identified information: may be kept longer because it no longer identifies a specific person.
Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
Our websites and games are intended for users age 13 and older and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can review and delete it where required.
International Transfers
We and our service providers may process information in countries other than where you live. Those countries may have data protection laws different from the laws in your location. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, contractual protections, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
Data Deletion and Account Deletion
You may request deletion of personal information associated with our games, including account-related data, authentication records, cloud save data, or other data we control. To make a request, contact us at info@studio-rouleau.com and include the game name, platform, approximate date of use, and any relevant player, account, or platform ID that can help us locate the data.
Some information is controlled directly by platform providers such as Apple, Google, Steam, Unity, or advertising and analytics providers. For data controlled by those providers, you may need to use their account, privacy, or support tools to request deletion.
We may retain limited information after a deletion request where necessary for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, dispute resolution, tax or accounting obligations, platform requirements, or backup integrity. Backup copies may remain for a limited period before they are overwritten or deleted in the ordinary course.
Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw consent, receive a portable copy of certain information, and opt out of targeted advertising or certain disclosures.
You can also use device and platform controls to manage permissions, advertising identifiers, personalized ads, analytics options, notifications, and app access. If you contact us about a privacy request, we may need information to verify and process it.
If you are in the EEA or UK, we will respond to privacy rights requests without undue delay and generally within one month, unless the law allows additional time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. A list of EU data protection authorities is available from the European Data Protection Board.
We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects for you.
Third-Party Links
Our website and games may link to third-party websites, stores, communities, or services, including Steam, Apple, Google Play, Facebook, Discord, and Amazon. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services. Please review their privacy policies before providing information to them.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date above. Your continued use of our websites, games, or services after an update means the updated policy applies.
