Privacy Policy – MalborMerge
Last Updated: June 2, 2026
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how MalborMerge ("we," "our," or "the game") handles information when you play our game. MalborMerge is developed and published by Averion Interactive. Your account also works on our companion website, AverionHub (averioninteractive.com), where you can view your profile, achievements, and game history.
Information We Collect
MalborMerge offers an optional account system. If you choose to create an account, we collect and store the following information on our servers:
Username: The display name you choose when registering
Email Address: Used to create and log in to your account
Password: Stored securely (hashed) — we never store your plain-text password
Game Save Data: If you are logged in, your game progress is periodically synced to our servers to enable cloud saves and cross-device continuity
Account creation is entirely optional. You can play MalborMerge without registering or logging in. If you do not create an account, we do not collect any personal information from you.
MalborMerge also uses Google AdMob to display rewarded advertisements. AdMob may collect certain data as described in the Third-Party Services section below.
Local Data Storage
MalborMerge stores the following data locally on your device:
Game Progress: Gold, crafted items, quest history, and kingdom progress
Board State: Items and generators on your game board
Discovered Items: Your Collection Codex records
Upgrade History: Generator upgrades and purchase records
Kingdom Buildings: Building levels and milestone records
Quest Timers: Active quest countdown data
Auth Token: If you are logged in, a session token is stored locally in user://auth.json to keep you signed in between sessions
Cloud Saves (Optional — Logged-In Users Only)
If you are logged in, your game save data is automatically synced to our servers (averioninteractive.com) approximately every 60 seconds. This enables you to resume your progress on any device. The save data includes your game progress, board state, inventory, quest history, and other gameplay data listed above.
Cloud saves are only active when you are logged in. Guest players' save data remains entirely on-device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can log out at any time to stop cloud sync, and delete your account to permanently remove all cloud save data from our servers.
Unified Account (Game + Website)
Your MalborMerge account is shared with AverionHub (averioninteractive.com). This means:
An account created in the game can be used to log in on the website, and vice versa
Your profile, achievements, and games played are visible on the AverionHub website
Other users can view your public profile (username, achievements, and games played)
User Accounts (Optional)
If you choose to create an account:
Your username, email address, and game save data are transmitted to and stored on our servers over an encrypted HTTPS connection
Your password is never stored in plain text — it is hashed before storage
Your public profile (username, games played, achievements) is visible to other AverionHub users
We do not sell your data to any third parties
You can delete your account at any time from within the app (Account → Delete Account), which permanently removes your username, email, and all cloud save data from our servers
You can log out at any time, which stops cloud sync and removes your local auth token
