This Privacy Policy explains how ThugBattle.com ("ThugBattle," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit the website, create an account, play the game, use social login, buy credits or other virtual items, or contact us.

By using ThugBattle.com, you agree that your information will be handled as described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the site or services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, information created by your account activity, and information collected automatically from your browser or device.

Account information: username, login name, email address, password credentials, gender selection, referral information, account status, profile settings, and account preferences.
Game information: gameplay activity, stats, rankings, inventory, purchases made with in-game credits, messages, reports, chat or forum-style content, profile content, uploaded custom images, and other content you submit or create in the game.
Login and security information: IP address, signup IP address, login IP address, device type, session identifiers, remember-me tokens, timestamps, last online activity, and records used to detect abuse, cheating, fraud, or rule violations.
Payment and donation information: when you buy credits or support the game through PayPal, PayPal processes the payment. PayPal may send us transaction details such as payment status, payment amount, currency, transaction ID, payer email, payer ID, quantity, and the user ID or item information needed to credit your account. We do not store full credit card or bank account numbers.
Social login information: if you use Facebook Login or another social login service, we may receive information permitted by that service, such as your email address and name, to create or sign in to your account.
Website and analytics information: pages viewed, referral URLs, browser type, operating system, approximate location derived from IP address, date and time of visits, clicks, and other usage data collected through server logs, Google Analytics, cookies, and similar technologies.

2. How We Use Information

We use information to:

create, maintain, authenticate, and secure user accounts;
operate the game, display profiles, process game actions, track rankings, and provide account features;
process credit purchases, donations, refunds, disputes, support requests, and transaction records;
send service messages, verification messages, password reset messages, account notices, and support responses;
detect and prevent cheating, abuse, spam, fraud, security incidents, multi-account abuse, and other rule violations;

3. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies, session storage, pixels, and similar technologies for account login, security, remember-me functionality, preferences, analytics, social login, and spam prevention.

Some cookies are necessary for the site to work. Disabling cookies may prevent you from logging in or using parts of the game. Your browser may let you block, delete, or limit cookies. Third-party services may also provide their own privacy settings and opt-out tools.

4. Third-Party Services

We use third-party services that may collect or receive information under their own privacy policies, including:

Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager for traffic and usage analytics;
Google reCAPTCHA and Google Sign-In for spam prevention and account login features;
Facebook Login / Meta for account login features;
PayPal for payment processing;
hosting, CDN, email, security, database, and infrastructure providers needed to operate the site.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services. Review their privacy policies before using them.

5. Public Game Information

ThugBattle is an online game. Some information is visible to other users, including usernames, profile details, gameplay stats, rankings, gangs or groups, online or recent activity indicators, public messages, and other content you choose to post or that is naturally part of gameplay. Do not post personal information publicly unless you want other users to see it.

6. How We Share Information

We may share information as follows:

with other users, when information is part of public profiles, rankings, gameplay, messages, or other user-visible features;
with service providers and processors that help us host, secure, analyze, maintain, and operate the site;
with payment processors, including PayPal, to complete and verify payments;
with social login providers when you choose to use those services;
with moderators, administrators, or support staff as needed to operate the game and enforce rules;
when required by law, legal process, court order, subpoena, or government request;
when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect users, the site, our rights, security, property, or the public;
in connection with a merger, sale, reorganization, transfer of assets, bankruptcy, or similar business transaction;
with your consent or at your direction.

We do not sell personal information for money. We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of users under 16. Third-party analytics, social login, and security services may collect information about your online activity over time and across different websites when their services are loaded or used.

7. Data Retention

We keep information for as long as needed to provide the game, maintain your account, keep transaction records, enforce rules, prevent abuse, resolve disputes, comply with legal obligations, and protect the security of the site. Some records, such as payment logs, moderation records, fraud-prevention records, backups, and legal records, may be kept after account deletion when retention is reasonably necessary.

8. Your Choices and Rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information associated with your account by contacting us at [email protected]. Include your username and the email address connected to the account so we can verify the request.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights, including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to receive a copy of your information, the right to correct inaccurate information, the right to delete information, the right to object to or restrict certain processing, the right to withdraw consent, the right to opt out of certain sale, sharing, or targeted advertising uses, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising privacy rights. These rights may be subject to verification, legal exceptions, and account-security limits.

If we deny a privacy request and your local law gives you an appeal right, you may appeal by replying to our decision email with "Privacy Appeal" in the subject line.

9. California Privacy Disclosures

California law requires certain disclosures for websites that collect personal information from California residents. The categories of personal information we may collect are described in Section 1. The categories of third parties with whom we may share information are described in Sections 4 and 6.

At this time, our site does not respond to browser "Do Not Track" signals because there is no uniform industry standard for those signals. Other parties, including analytics, social login, payment, security, and embedded service providers, may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use ThugBattle.com.

Where the California Consumer Privacy Act or similar state law applies, California residents may request to know, access, correct, or delete personal information, and may opt out of certain sale or sharing uses if applicable. Submit requests to [email protected].

10. International Users

ThugBattle.com is operated from the United States. If you access the site from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. Privacy laws in those countries may differ from the laws where you live.

For users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or similar jurisdictions, our legal bases for processing may include performance of a contract, legitimate interests in operating and securing the game, compliance with legal obligations, and consent where required.

11. Children

ThugBattle.com is not intended for children under 13. Do not create an account or provide personal information if you are under 13. If we learn that we collected personal information from a child under 13 without required parental consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it. Parents or guardians may contact us at [email protected].

12. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards intended to protect personal information. No website, database, or internet transmission is completely secure. You are responsible for keeping your password private and for using a secure device and email account.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Material changes may also be announced on the site or by other reasonable means. Continued use of ThugBattle.com after an updated policy is posted means you accept the updated policy.
