Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026

1. Who we are

High Noon Duel is made by Mert Melih Aytemur, an independent developer ("we"). This policy covers the High Noon Duel app and the highnoonduel.app website. Questions: support@highnoonduel.app.

2. What we collect

• Player account: a random player ID and the date the account was created.
• Sign in with Google: if you sign in with Google, we keep the account ID Google gives us. We do not keep your name, email or photo.
• Guest sign-in: when you start as a guest, Google Play Integrity checks that the app is unmodified and the device is real. We do not keep the result.
• Session: we keep only a hashed fingerprint of the token that keeps you signed in.
• Game data: what the game needs to work, such as your level, gold, the items you own and your duel results.
• Purchases: Google Play takes the payment. We keep only the purchase details Google sends us so we can give you what you bought; your card never reaches us.
• Launch list: if you leave your email on this site, we keep the email, your language and the date.
• Technical data: our server keeps your IP address briefly in memory to stop abuse; we do not store it.

We do not currently use ads, advertising IDs or third-party analytics. If we add any, we will update this policy first.

3. How we use it

• To create your account, sign you in and keep your progress.
• To match duels and keep them fair, and to stop cheating and abuse.
• To deliver what you buy.
• If you joined the launch list, to email you once when the game is out.

4. Who we share it with

We never sell your data. We share it only with the providers that run the service, and only as much as they need: Hetzner (servers in Germany), Cloudflare (domain and image delivery) and Google (sign-in, Google Play and Play Integrity). We may share data with authorities if the law requires it.

5. How long we keep it

We keep account data while your account exists. When you delete your account, the account, its sessions and its game data are deleted. Sessions expire by themselves after 30 days. Launch-list emails are deleted after launch, or straight away if you ask.

6. Your rights

You can access, correct, delete or export your data, and object to how it is used. Delete your account in the app or from this page; for anything else, email support@highnoonduel.app. If you are in the EU, the UK or Turkey, you can also complain to your data protection authority.

7. Children

High Noon Duel is not meant for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

8. Changes

If we change this policy, we update the date above and announce important changes in the app.
