Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains in plain terms what CandleOps stores for account access and gameplay.

What CandleOps stores

CandleOps stores your account profile, authentication details provided through Supabase, gameplay progress, mission history, account states, achievement progress, and payout-related statistics.

Why this data is used

The data is used to let you sign in, continue your progress, unlock account tiers, track achievements, maintain leaderboards, and keep mission and account progress consistent across sessions.

Third-party services

CandleOps uses Supabase for authentication, database storage, and file storage. The site also integrates Google services such as Google Sign-In, Google Analytics, and Google AdSense.

Google Analytics

If you consent, CandleOps may use Google Analytics to measure traffic, understand which pages are viewed, and improve the product experience. Google Analytics may collect information such as page visits, browser details, device information, approximate location data, and interaction events through cookies and similar technologies.

The information generated by Google Analytics may be transmitted to and stored by Google. We use this data to understand usage patterns and improve the service.

Google AdSense

CandleOps may display advertisements through Google AdSense. If AdSense is active, Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads, limit repetition, measure ad performance, and potentially personalize advertising content where applicable.

If you decline optional tracking, CandleOps may still request non-personalized ads. These ads are context-based rather than tailored from your past behavior.

AdSense may process technical and usage-related information, including device identifiers, browser information, IP-related data, and page interaction data, in accordance with Google's own privacy and advertising policies.

Cookies and consent

CandleOps uses local storage and similar browser technologies to keep you signed in, remember gameplay state, and store cookie consent choices. Optional analytics are only enabled after user consent. If you decline optional tracking, CandleOps may still show non-personalized ads.

Essential technologies required for authentication, security, or core gameplay persistence may still be used even if optional analytics or advertising consent is declined.
