Wonder HammerPrivacy policy
The short version
- You play as a guest. We never ask for your email, phone number, real name or a password.
- We store a random player ID, the builder name you pick, your country, and how your games went.
- Your builder name and country are shown to other players in the rankings.
- You can delete your account in the game at any time. It is deleted right away.
- We do not sell your data.
What we collect
Your guest account
The first time you open the game it creates a guest account for you: a random player ID and a secret key that stays on your device. Our server keeps only a one-way fingerprint of that key, not the key itself. We also keep the builder name (one is given to you and you can change it), the date the account was created and the date you last played.
Your country
We suggest a country from the country your internet address belongs to, or from your device's region setting. You confirm it or pick another. We store only the two-letter country code. We do not store your IP address with your account and we never collect your precise location.
How you play
For each game we store the board you played, the moves you made, how long it took, which helpers you used, how many seconds of ads you watched for helpers, and the result. From those we keep your cowries, the wonders you unlocked, your badges and your ranking points.
Fair play records
If an account is banned for cheating or an offensive name, we keep a record of that decision and of the administrator who made it.
Technical logs
Like every online service, our server logs each request: the time, the address it came from (your IP address) and what was asked for. We use these logs to keep the service running and to stop abuse, and we delete them within 30 days.
Cloudflare, which carries the traffic to our server, keeps its own logs of the same requests under its own privacy policy.
What stays on your device
Your settings (sound, language), the secret key of your guest account, and the pictures the game downloads. Deleting the app removes them.
Why we use it
- To run the game. Wonder Hammer is online only: the server deals every board and checks every result.
- To keep it fair. We replay your moves on the server to confirm a win before it counts.
- For the rankings. Your builder name, country and score are visible to other players. Do not put personal information in your builder name.
- To tune the game. We study game records in bulk to adjust difficulty.
- To stop abuse. Rate limits and bans rely on the logs and records above.
Advertising
The game is free and shows ads: a video when you choose to get a helper or cowries, and sometimes a full-screen ad between games. Ads are served by Google AdMob. To deliver and measure ads, Google may collect your device's advertising ID, approximate location derived from your IP address, and how you interact with ads. Where the law requires it, you are asked for consent first, and on iOS the system asks whether the app may track you. You can refuse and still play. See how Google uses data from apps that use its services.
We only tell our own server how many seconds of ads you watched for helpers, because that time is taken off your race time.
Who else handles your data
- Cloudflare carries the traffic between your device and our server, delivers downloaded pictures, and tells us which country a request comes from.
- DigitalOcean runs the server and the database.
- Google AdMob serves the ads, as described above.
They process data on our behalf or under their own policies. We share nothing else with anyone, unless a law requires it.
Deleting your account
Open your profile in the game and choose DELETE ACCOUNT. The steps are on the delete your account page. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone.
Deleted: the account's key, your builder name, your country, your cowries, unlocked wonders, badges and ranking points. You disappear from the rankings.
Kept, with nothing that identifies you: the records of the games themselves (to detect cheating and tune difficulty), the points already counted for a country, and any ban record. Technical logs expire on their normal schedule.
If you never delete your account, we keep it for as long as the game is running.
Children
Wonder Hammer is made for players aged 13 and over. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. The game never asks for your age, name or contact details.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has played, delete the account from the child's profile in the game (see delete your account), or write to jingjoeh.support@gmail.com with the Player ID shown in the profile and we will delete it.
Where the law of your country sets a higher age for agreeing to the use of your data, you need a parent's or guardian's permission to play below that age.
Your rights
You can see your data in your profile, correct your builder name and country there, and delete everything with DELETE ACCOUNT. Depending on where you live (for example under Thailand's PDPA or the EU's GDPR) you may also have the right to ask for a copy of your data, to object to how we use it, or to complain to your data protection authority. Write to jingjoeh.support@gmail.com and include the Player ID shown in your profile, so we can find your account.
This website
This website sets no cookies and has no analytics. It is hosted on Cloudflare, like the game's server, and loads nothing from anyone else (its typefaces are served from this site too).
Changes
When this policy changes we update the date at the top. For a change that matters, the game's announcements say so.
