Bid for Loot: Auction Game · iPhone & iPad
Bid for Loot Privacy Policy
Infoseed Consulting Pty Ltd operates Bid for Loot: Auction Game. This policy covers its online game features. Purchases, advertising and other features apply where enabled in your version.
Information we handle
We process guest or linked account identifiers, device and session identifiers, your chosen player name and avatar, game progress, coins, clues, collection and match records. We receive gameplay actions such as bids and results to run online matches, save and recover progress, display rankings where available, and prevent unauthorised access or duplicate rewards. Network requests also involve technical information such as IP addresses and app or device details for delivery, troubleshooting and security.
If you link to Apple, we process verified Apple sign-in identifiers and authorisation information to link and access your game account. Apple handles sign-in and App Store payments. We process transaction identifiers, purchase verification and subscription status to provide, restore and reconcile paid benefits and prevent duplicate claims. We do not receive your Apple Account password or payment-card details.
What other players can see
Your player name, in-game avatar, membership appearance and match information shown during play can be visible to other participants. Where leaderboards are enabled, listed player names, avatars, public player identifiers, ranks and collection-value scores are visible to other players. Avoid using personal information in your player name.
Advertising and privacy choices
Where advertising is enabled, we use Google AdMob for banner and optional rewarded ads, and Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) for applicable privacy choices. Google and advertising participants may process IP addresses and approximate location, device or app identifiers, consent choices, ad interactions, diagnostics and performance information to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud and improve their services. Processing depends on region, configuration and permissions.
Privacy checks, ad preparation and permitted preloading can process information before an ad is displayed or you choose to watch a rewarded ad. We also exchange a game account identifier and reward-verification information with Google to validate and deliver rewards once. Choosing not to watch a rewarded ad does not prevent all advertising-related processing.
Use the advertising privacy choices entry in Settings where available to review or change your choices. You can also manage applicable tracking permissions in your device's privacy settings. Restricted or non-personalised ads may still involve necessary data processing. See Google's privacy policy and advertising data information.
Anonymous usage statistics (from version 1.1)
Google Firebase Analytics processes anonymous usage statistics for us in the App Store build. These include gameplay events such as tutorial steps, match starts and ends, profit bands, ad reward results and membership page views.
Firebase also uses an app-instance installation ID and device and diagnostic data. These statistics are not linked to you, do not include names, accounts, contact details or the advertising identifier (IDFA), and are not used for ads or tracking.
Your choice: turn off Share anonymous usage statistics in Settings → Privacy & Support → Privacy. In the EEA and UK, statistics also respect your choice in Google's UMP consent prompt. See Firebase's privacy information.
Service providers and overseas processing
Amazon Web Services (AWS) hosts game accounts and online services and processes the information needed to operate them on our behalf. Apple processes sign-in and purchases; Google processes advertising, privacy choices and usage statistics as described above. These providers may process information outside Australia, including in the United States and other countries where they operate. This does not mean that all game data is stored in one country. See AWS's privacy notice, Apple's privacy policy and Google's policy for their international processing practices.
Retention and deletion
We retain information as needed to operate your account, provide and reconcile benefits, resolve disputes, maintain security and meet applicable legal obligations. Request account deletion in Settings under Account & purchases, or contact support if you cannot use that entry. Deleting the app alone does not delete a server account or cancel an Apple subscription.
Account deletion removes the account and deletable game data. Necessary purchase, reward-verification and legal records may remain, including records needed to prevent the same paid benefit being issued twice. Previously published leaderboard information may remain in cached copies until refreshed. Providers manage their own records and backups under their policies.
Contact, requests and complaints
Email Support@infoseed.com.au to request access, correction or deletion, exercise other rights available under applicable law, or raise a privacy complaint. We may need to verify that the account or information is yours. We will review your request and respond. If a privacy complaint remains unresolved, you may contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner or your applicable privacy regulator.
Our shared website and support-email privacy information covers visits to this website and correspondence. For account and purchase help, see game support. We will update this policy and its date when practices change.
