Privacy Policy

1. Introduction and Data Controller

Welcome to the privacy policy for Shadow Pirate Legends. Abyssal Entertainment Ltd acts as the data controller for any personal information processed on this platform. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. As a free social casino, our data collection is minimal.

2. Data We Collect

Because Shadow Pirate Legends requires no registration or accounts, we do not collect names, emails, or financial data for gameplay. We only collect anonymised technical data, such as your IP address, browser type, and device information. This data helps us ensure that games like Kraken's Bounty and Helm of the Damned run smoothly on your device.

3. Lawful Basis for Processing

We process your technical data based on our legitimate interests to operate and secure our website. This includes maintaining your balance of Shadow Embers locally on your device through local storage or cookies. We ensure our legitimate interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.

4. Data Sharing and Security

We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties. We may share anonymised technical data with trusted service providers who assist us in hosting the Cursed Archipelago game servers and analysing site traffic. All such providers are bound by strict UK data protection standards.

5. Data Retention

Technical data and gameplay analytics are retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for. Your Shadow Embers balance is stored locally on your device and will remain there until you clear your browser cache. We periodically purge server-side analytics data.

6. Your Data Subject Rights

Under the UK GDPR, you have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to request access, rectification, erasure, and data portability. Because we do not maintain user accounts, fulfilling these requests may require you to provide specific technical identifiers. You also have the right to object to our processing of your data.

7. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies to save your Shadow Embers balance and to understand how visitors interact with Shadow Pirate Legends. For detailed information on the specific cookies we use and how to manage your consent, please refer to our dedicated Cookie Policy. You can adjust your preferences at any time.

8. Contact and Complaints

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or our data practices, please contact us at support@shadowpiratelegends.com. If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection.
