Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 24, 2023
1. Introduction and Data Controller
Welcome to the privacy notice of Ancient Pirate Kingdom. Ancient Seas Entertainment Ltd acts as the data controller for any information processed while you enjoy our free social casino. We are committed to protecting your privacy in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
2. Information We Process
Because Ancient Pirate Kingdom requires no registration or user accounts, we do not collect names, emails, or financial details. We only process anonymised, strictly necessary technical data, such as your IP address and browser type, to ensure smooth gameplay for titles like Sunken Galleon Slots and Trench of the Leviathan.
3. Lawful Basis for Processing
Our lawful basis for processing technical session data is legitimate interest, allowing us to maintain the security and functionality of the Ancient Pirate Kingdom platform. We do not process personal data for marketing purposes, as our platform is entirely free and requires no sign-ups.
4. Game Session Data and Virtual Currency
When you play our games, session-based data is temporarily stored to track your Aether Pearls balance during your visit. Once you close your browser, this local session data is cleared, and your virtual progress is reset, as we do not maintain persistent player profiles.
5. Data Retention
Any technical logs generated while accessing Ancient Pirate Kingdom are retained for a maximum of 30 days for security auditing purposes. After this period, all server logs are permanently securely deleted from our UK-based servers.
6. Sharing of Information
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer any data to outside parties. All processing is handled internally by Ancient Seas Entertainment Ltd, solely to provide you with a secure, free-to-play maritime gaming experience.
7. Your Data Subject Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have rights regarding your data, including the right to access, rectification, erasure, and data portability. Given our accountless system, verifying your identity to fulfill these requests may be technically impossible, but we will make every effort to assist you.
8. Cookies and Local Storage
We use local storage and cookies strictly to run the games and manage your temporary Aether Pearls balance. For detailed information on how these mechanisms work, please refer to our Cookie Policy.
9. Complaints to the ICO
If you believe Ancient Pirate Kingdom has mishandled your data, you have the right to make a complaint at any time to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK supervisory authority for data protection issues.
