Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 3, 2026
1. Data We Collect
English Arena collects the following data:
- Account Information: Username (nickname), anonymous user ID (Firebase Anonymous Auth)
- Profile Information: Country selection, avatar selection
- Game Data: Score, level, match count, win count, daily streak
- Device Information: Operating system, device model, app language (for Analytics)
- Advertising Identifier: For serving ads (Unity LevelPlay / ironSource). Used for personalisation only if you allow it
- Game Platform Name: Your Apple Game Center alias (iOS) or Google Play Games gamer name (Android), only if you are already signed in on the device. Read only to give you an in-game username; details below
2. How We Use Your Data
- Provide and improve game experience
- Leaderboard and ranking system
- In-game friend system
- Daily quests and achievement tracking
- Display advertisements (Unity LevelPlay)
- App performance analysis
- Crash and error reporting
3. Third-Party Services
Google Firebase
Used for Authentication, Realtime Database, and Analytics services.
Unity LevelPlay (ironSource)
Used for in-app advertising. You choose whether ads are personalised on the in-app consent screen, and you can change that choice at any time in Settings › Ad Privacy Choices. If you decline, ads are still shown but are not selected based on your interests.
Sentry
Used for crash detection and reporting.
App Store / Play Store
Used for in-app purchases.
Apple Game Center / Google Play Games
The first time you open the app, instead of asking you for a username we may use your name from your game platform:
- iOS: if you are already signed in to Game Center on the device, we read your Game Center alias.
- Android: if you are signed in to Google Play Games, we may read your Play Games gamer name for the same purpose.
That name is the only thing we read. We do not receive your player ID, friends list, achievements or email address from these services. If you are not signed in, you are not asked to sign in; the app generates a random name for you instead. The name is stored with your account as your in-game username and is visible to other players (in matches, on leaderboards and in friend lists). It is not sent to analytics or crash reports. You can change your username at any time from your profile. These services' own privacy policies are published by Apple and Google.
4. Children's Privacy (COPPA)
English Arena is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, please contact us.

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights:
- Right to access your data
- Right to rectification of your data
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") - Settings → Delete Account
- Right to object to processing

- Right to be informed about automated decision-making
6. Data Security
Your data is protected by Firebase Realtime Database security rules. All data transfers are encrypted (HTTPS/TLS).
7. Account Deletion
To permanently delete your account and all data:
Settings → Delete Account
This action is irreversible and will delete all game data, achievements, and progress.
