Effective date: July 10, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Project Vanguard, published by Bastion Studios, collects, uses, and protects information when you use the mobile game.

Information We Collect

Project Vanguard collects a limited amount of information necessary to provide game features.

Player Display Name

Players may create or select an in-game display name. This name may be stored and displayed publicly alongside leaderboard scores.

Players should not use their real name or include sensitive personal information in their display name.

Gameplay and Leaderboard Information

Project Vanguard may collect and store gameplay information, including:

• Player scores

• Leaderboard rankings

• Game progress or related gameplay results

• The display name associated with a leaderboard entry

This information is used to operate the game’s leaderboard and related game features.

In-App Purchases

Project Vanguard offers optional in-app purchases processed through Google Play.

Payment details, such as credit-card numbers, are collected and processed by Google Play. Project Vanguard does not directly receive or store complete payment-card information.

The game may receive limited purchase information, such as the purchased product, transaction status, purchase token, or entitlement status, to verify purchases and provide purchased content.

Google Play’s handling of payment information is governed by Google’s own privacy policies and terms.

How We Use Information

Information collected by Project Vanguard is used to:

• Operate and maintain the game

• Display scores and rankings on leaderboards

• Deliver and verify in-app purchases

• Prevent fraudulent or unauthorized transactions

• Respond to player support and privacy requests

Information Sharing

We do not sell player information.

Information may be processed by service providers used to operate the game, such as database, hosting, or purchase-processing providers. These providers process information only as necessary to provide their services.

Current service providers may include:

• Google Play, for processing in-app purchases

• Supabase, for storing player names and leaderboard scores

Data Security

Reasonable technical measures are used to protect information, including encrypted network connections where supported. However, no internet-based storage or transmission system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Data Retention and Deletion

Player display names, scores, and leaderboard entries may be retained while the leaderboard remains active or while reasonably necessary to operate the game.

Players may request deletion of their leaderboard information by contacting:

mrbastion3@gmail.com

Please include the display name used in the game and enough information for us to locate the associated leaderboard record. We may request additional verification before deleting data to prevent unauthorized deletion requests.

Purchase records may be retained where necessary for transaction verification, fraud prevention, accounting, or legal compliance.

Children’s Privacy

Project Vanguard is not specifically directed toward children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. A parent or guardian who believes that a child has provided personal information may contact us to request its deletion.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated when the game’s features or data-handling practices change. The effective date at the top of this page will be updated when changes are made.
