Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Lerk Interactive ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit lerkinteractive.com (the "Site") or play our games and applications (collectively, the "Services"). By using the Services, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

We aim to collect as little personal information as possible. Depending on how you use the Services, this may include:

• Information you provide. If you contact us through the Site's contact form or by email, we receive the name, email address, and message content you submit so we can respond.
• Automatically collected technical data. Like most websites and online services, our servers may log standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device and operating system, referring pages, and the date and time of your request. This is used for security, troubleshooting, and to keep the Services running.
• Game and app data. Our games may store gameplay progress, settings, and similar data. Where a game is distributed through a third‑party platform (for example, a mobile app store or Steam), that platform may collect additional information under its own privacy policy.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

• respond to your messages and provide support;
• operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Services;
• detect, prevent, and address technical issues, abuse, or fraud; and
• comply with applicable legal obligations.

3. Cookies & Analytics

The Site does not use advertising cookies or sell your data. It may use essential cookies or local storage needed for basic functionality. Some pages load fonts and similar resources from third‑party providers (such as Google Fonts), which may receive your IP address as part of serving those resources. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in limited circumstances:

• Service providers. With vendors that help us operate the Services (for example, hosting, email delivery, and content‑delivery providers), who may process information on our behalf.
• Platforms. With distribution platforms (such as app stores and Steam) when you access our games through them, subject to their own privacy policies.
• Legal reasons. When required by law, regulation, legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and property of Lerk Interactive, our users, or the public.
• Business transfers. In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case we will take steps to protect your information.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Policy, to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Messages sent to us are kept for as long as needed to handle your inquiry and our records.

6. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

The Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

8. Your Rights & Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to access, correct, or delete it, or to object to or restrict certain processing. To make a request, contact us at contact@lerkinteractive.com and we will respond as required by applicable law. You can also opt out of contacting us at any time by simply not submitting the form.

9. International Users

We operate the Services from our facilities and may process and store information in countries other than your own. By using the Services, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in locations with different data‑protection laws than your jurisdiction.
