Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 2023
1. Introduction and Data Controller
Welcome to Cursed Island Legends. Cursed Isle Entertainment Ltd acts as the Data Controller for all personal information collected on this platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. This policy outlines how we handle data when you engage with games like Tide of the Kraken and Volcano's Wrath.
2. Information We Collect
Because Cursed Island Legends requires no registration or accounts, we do not collect names, email addresses, or financial data. We only process anonymised usage data, IP addresses, and device identifiers to ensure the proper functioning of our platform. This allows us to save your progress and your balance of Phantom Pearls locally on your device.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing
Under the UK GDPR, our lawful basis for processing this limited technical data is 'Legitimate Interests'. It is necessary for us to process this information to operate the website, maintain security, and prevent abuse of our virtual currency systems. We do not use your data for profiling or automated decision-making.
4. How We Use Your Data
The technical data collected is used strictly to deliver a seamless gaming experience. For example, it ensures that your game state in Volcano's Wrath is maintained if your connection drops. It also helps us track aggregate statistics to improve the performance of our social casino games across the United Kingdom.
5. Data Retention
Since you play anonymously, session data and device identifiers are retained only as long as necessary to facilitate your current visit and save your Phantom Pearls balance. Aggregate analytics data, which cannot identify you personally, may be kept indefinitely for platform improvement purposes.
6. Third-Party Sharing
Cursed Island Legends does not sell, rent, or trade your data. We may share anonymised technical data with trusted service providers (such as hosting platforms and analytics services) solely to operate the website. These providers are strictly bound by data processing agreements in compliance with UK privacy laws.
7. Your Data Subject Rights
Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of your personal data. You also have the right to data portability and the right to object to processing. Because we do not hold traditional account data, fulfilling these requests may require you to provide specific device identifiers.
8. Cookies and Tracking
We use essential local storage and cookies to remember your game progress, such as your current Phantom Pearls balance and settings for Tide of the Kraken. For detailed information on how we use these technologies and how you can manage them, please refer to our dedicated Cookie Policy.
9. Security Measures
We implement robust technical and organisational measures to protect the limited data we process. All traffic to and from Cursed Island Legends is encrypted using modern SSL/TLS protocols to ensure your connection remains secure while you explore the island.
10. Complaints to the ICO
If you are a resident of the United Kingdom and believe our processing of your data violates data protection laws, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). We encourage you to contact us first at support@cursedislandlegends.com so we can address your concerns directly.
