This privacy policy is applicable to the Thread: Daily Deduction Puzzle app for mobile devices and web browsers, together with any related services operated by Vant Games (collectively, the "Application"). Vant Games is hereinafter referred to as the "Service Provider".
Vant Games acts as the Data Controller responsible for the processing of your personal data.
For data protection inquiries and to exercise your GDPR rights, please contact the Data Controller using the contact information above.
The Application and related services acquire the information you supply when you download, access, or register for the service. Registration with the Service Provider is not mandatory. However, you might not be able to use some of the features offered by the service unless you register.
The Service Provider may also use the information you provide to send important information, required notices, and, where permitted by law, marketing communications.
Where the GDPR applies, the Service Provider relies on one or more lawful bases to process your personal data, including:
The Application or its third-party SDKs may use cookies, SDKs, pixels, and similar technologies to support functionality, analytics, and service delivery. Where required by law, the Service Provider will obtain your consent before using non-essential tracking technologies.
If the Application uses automated decision-making, including profiling, that produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you, you have the right to request human review, express your point of view, and contest the decision. Information about the logic involved and the likely consequences of that processing will be provided where required by law.
In addition, the Application may collect certain information automatically, including, but not limited to, the type of mobile device or computer you use, your device's unique device ID or identifier, the IP address of your mobile device or computer, your operating system, the type of browser you use, and information about the way you use the Application.
This Application does not gather precise information about the location of your mobile device or computer.
The Application uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to enhance user experience and provide certain features. The AI components may process user data in the following ways:
Only aggregated, anonymized data is periodically transmitted to external services to aid the Service Provider in improving the Application and their service. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement.
Third-Party Services — Anthropic API
This app uses the Anthropic API to process user inputs for puzzle hint and guess evaluation. User inputs entered during gameplay may be sent to Anthropic's servers for processing. No personal identifying information is included in these requests. Please refer to Anthropic's privacy policy at anthropic.com/privacy for more information.
The Service Provider or its third-party service providers may transfer personal data outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where such transfers occur, the Service Provider will use an appropriate transfer mechanism required by GDPR Chapter V.
Countries outside the EEA may not provide the same level of data protection as the EEA. Where required by law, the Service Provider will apply appropriate safeguards and obtain any consent required for the transfer.
The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:
Where the GDPR applies, the Service Provider enters into Data Processing Agreements (DPAs) with third-party service providers that process personal data on its behalf, as required by Article 28 of the GDPR.
You can stop further collection of information from your mobile device or computer by uninstalling the Application. To request deletion of your personal data, withdraw consent, or exercise any of your rights, contact the Service Provider at support@vantgames.io.
You have the right to request deletion of your personal data at any time, except where retention is required by law. Contact the Service Provider at support@vantgames.io.
The Application is not intended for children under 16 years of age. The Service Provider does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact support@vantgames.io so the necessary actions can be taken.
The Service Provider implements physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information it processes and maintains. However, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches.
In the event of a personal data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, the Service Provider will notify the relevant supervisory authority within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, the Service Provider will also notify you without undue delay.
The Service Provider may update this Privacy Policy from time to time and will notify you of material changes by posting the updated policy with an effective date. Previous versions are available upon request at support@vantgames.io.
