Marks Pool - Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 9, 2026
Marks Pool ("the App," "we," "us," "our") is a mobile game operated by Nathan Kawanga ("the Developer"), a sole proprietor based in Kenya, pending formal business incorporation. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use the App, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By downloading, installing, or using Marks Pool, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Information We Collect
1.1 Account Information. To create an account and play, we collect your phone number and/or email address, used to create and secure your account and to enable account recovery.
1.2 Usage and Diagnostic Data. We automatically collect gameplay and usage data (e.g., matches played, session length, in-app actions) and diagnostic and crash data (e.g., device model, OS version, app version, crash logs), used to identify and fix bugs and improve performance.
1.3 Virtual Currency and In-App Activity. The App uses a virtual, non-cash in-game currency ("play coins") for gameplay. Play coins have no real-world monetary value, cannot be redeemed, exchanged, transferred, or converted into cash or any other item of value, and are used solely to determine standings within the game. We may record your play coin balance and in-app activity to operate features such as matchmaking, leaderboards, and progression.
1.4 Information We Do Not Currently Collect. The App does not currently request precise location, contacts, camera, microphone, or financial account/payment information. If this changes in a future version, we will update this Policy and the App's data safety disclosures before the change takes effect, and will seek any additional consent required by law.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to create, maintain, and secure your account; operate core gameplay features including matchmaking and leaderboards; diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and improve app performance; communicate with you about your account or the App; enforce our Terms of Service and protect against fraud, cheating, and abuse; and comply with applicable law. We do not sell your personal information.
Third-Party Sharing
We do not currently share personal information with third-party advertising networks. We may use third-party service providers (such as cloud hosting or crash-reporting infrastructure) solely to operate and improve the App; these providers are contractually limited to using data only to provide services to us. If the App integrates additional third-party services in the future (such as analytics, advertising, or login providers), this Policy and the App's Play Store data safety disclosure will be updated accordingly. We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the Developer, our users, or others.
Data Retention
We retain account and usage information for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the App's features, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may request deletion of your account and associated data as described in the Contact Us section.
Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, or to request deletion of your account and data, contact us at the email below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable law.
Children's Privacy
Marks Pool is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required by your local law), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under that age. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will take steps to delete it.
International Users
The App is developed and operated from Kenya. If you access the App from outside Kenya, your information may be processed in Kenya or other countries where our service providers operate, which may have data protection laws different from those of your home jurisdiction.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as the App evolves. We will post any changes here with an updated "Last updated" date, and where changes are material, we will provide additional notice (such as an in-app notification) before the changes take effect.
