Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to all casual games (collectively referred to as the "Products") developed and operated by EchoVerse Dynamics Inc ("we", "us", or "our"). We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This policy explains how we collect, use, store, share and protect your information when you use our Products, as well as your rights regarding your personal information.
1. Information We Collect and Related Permissions
We collect information through the permissions you grant and your use of the Products. We classify permissions into sensitive permissions and general permissions, and collect information in a legal, fair and transparent manner.
1.1 Sensitive Permissions and Collected Information
Sensitive permissions refer to permissions that may involve your personal sensitive information and affect your personal privacy and security if misused. When you use specific functions of the Products, we may request your consent to access the following sensitive permissions, and collect corresponding information based on the permissions:
-
Location Permission: When you use location-based game functions (such as regional rankings, location-related game tasks), we will request your consent to access your precise or approximate location information. The information collected includes your device's GPS coordinates (if precise location is enabled) or network location information (such as IP address-derived location). We only collect location information when you actively use the relevant functions, and the collection object is the user who chooses to enable the function and agree to the permission.
-
Camera Permission: When you use game functions that require taking photos or scanning (such as customizing avatars with photos, scanning QR codes to log in or receive game rewards), we will request your consent to access your device's camera. We only collect the image data you actively capture during the use of the function, and the collection object is the user who uses the relevant function and agrees to the permission.
-
Microphone Permission: If the Products include voice interaction functions (such as voice chat with other players, voice control of game characters), we will request your consent to access your device's microphone. We only collect the voice data you actively input during the use of the function, and the collection object is the user who uses the relevant voice function and agrees to the permission.
-
Contact Permission: When you use functions such as inviting contacts to play the game together or matching friends from contacts, we will request your consent to access your device's contact list. The collected information includes the name and contact information of the contacts you choose to share. The collection object is the user who uses the relevant social function and agrees to the permission.
-
Storage Permission: When you need to save game screenshots, game progress, or upload local files to the game (such as custom game backgrounds), we will request your consent to access your device's internal storage or external storage. We collect the files you actively save or upload, and the collection object is the user who uses the relevant storage-related functions and agrees to the permission.
1.2 General Permissions and Collected Information
General permissions are necessary to ensure the basic operation of the Products or provide basic game services. The following general permissions may be used when you use the Products, and corresponding information may be collected:

This information is used to ensure the compatibility of the Products with your device, optimize game performance, and troubleshoot technical issues.
-
Application Running Permission: We may access the running status of other applications on your device to avoid conflicts between the Products and other applications and ensure the stable operation of the game.

All the information we collect will be uploaded to and stored on our cloud servers hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS) in the United States. AWS has a complete information security protection system to ensure the security of the stored information.
2. How We Protect Your Information
We take a series of technical and management measures to protect the security of your personal information and prevent unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification or destruction of information:
