Privacy Policy
Last Updated 1/19/2019
This Privacy Policy applies to all of Great Northern Studio, LLC's games, websites and other related services (collectively the "Services"). By using our Services, you acknowledge and consent to the terms of this privacy policy.
This policy will let you know:
- What information (often referred to as "data") is collected.
- How your information is used.
- With whom your information may be shared.
Apps and the website may contain links to other sites or products and we are not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices of other companies. When linking to another company, you should read that company’s privacy policy.
Data We Collect
Certain data is collected automatically. This includes:
- Anonymous data about your game progress.
- Anonymous data about your device, such as device name, operating system, browser type and language.
- Mobile device identifier (advertising ID). There are ways to prevent this, which are outlined in the advertising/third-party lists below.
We only use this data in anonymous or aggregate form, as a statistical measure, and not in a manner that would identify you personally, in order to improve our product. Data on device type, operating system, and the user experience is automatically collected when using our product and solely used to optimize and improve the usability of our products and the website.
If any app crashes occur, we collect anonymous, non-personal device information provided automatically by your device to help understand what caused the crash.

How do we use the data we collect
Data collected will always be treated securely and in accordance with this document, and information collected is solely used to develop and improve the user experience and the product or website. We neither rent nor sell any information that we collect.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We will not sell, trade, rent or disclose any of the personal information you provide to us for any reason. Otherwise, your personal information will only be disclosed where required by law.
Payments
GNS Services may offer paid products, services, and in-app purchases. In such cases, we use third-party services for payment processing. We will not store or collect your payment card details, and that information is provided directly to our third-party payment processors whose use of your personal information is governed by their Privacy Policy.
The list of payment processing services include:
- Apple App Store
Advertising
Advertisements from third-party ad networks may be displayed in our games. We do not work with companies delivering ads of inappropriate content. As we do not have direct control of which ads are shown in our apps at any given moment, we encourage you to contact us if you find ads in our apps that violate this policy, and report those ads by clicking on the "?", "i" or "ad" icon that's usually in the corner of the ad.
The list of our ad networks include:
- Google Admob
You can also opt-out of targeted-based advertising in all apps, by checking the privacy settings of your Android or iOS device and selecting "limit ad tracking" (Apple iOS) or "opt-out of interest-based ads" (Android). This will prevent mobile device identifier from being collected from all apps on your device.

GNS uses cookies to help identify and track visitors, their usage of GNS Services, and their Service access preferences. Visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using GNS Services.
