Privacy and Cookie Policy
1. Introduction to The Aurora Outpost Data Systems
This Privacy and Cookie Policy outlines how True North Entertainment Ltd. ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects your information when you interact with the Aurora Outpost social casino simulators. Our platform is strictly for entertainment purposes, offering a virtual currency (Glacier Credits) with no real-world value. Transparency in our data systems is paramount to maintaining a secure and enjoyable simulation environment.
2. Types of Information We Collect
We collect information to provide, maintain, and improve our simulators. This includes:
- Account Data: If you register or subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address, chosen username, and password hashes.
- Device Logs: We automatically log technical information such as IP addresses, browser types, operating systems, and access timestamps to ensure platform stability.
- Gameplay Data: We track simulator usage, Glacier Credit balances, and rank progression to save your expedition state.
3. Use of Information
The information we collect is strictly used for service delivery and authentication. Specifically, we use your data to:
- Authenticate your login and load your saved Outpost state.
- Deliver the core simulator experience and process virtual currency transactions.
- Send critical account notifications and requested newsletter drops.
- Monitor platform security and prevent abusive behaviors.
4. Cookie Policy
We utilize cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience. Below is a breakdown of our cookie usage:
