Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 2023
1. Purpose of Information Collection
Glowcave Mania collects basic technical data solely to ensure the smooth operation of our free games like Lumina Threads and Wheel of Echoes. We do not collect sensitive personal information, as no accounts or real-money transactions are required. The data we do gather helps us deliver your Lumina Drops balance accurately during your session.
2. Source of Information
Information is collected directly from your device as you interact with Glowcave Mania. We capture standard browser metrics and interaction data automatically. No information is sourced from third-party data brokers.
3. Storage and Security
Your session data is stored securely using industry-standard encryption protocols. Glowcave Mania ensures that all data related to your Lumina Drops and gameplay is protected against unauthorized access. We retain this non-identifying data only for as long as necessary for platform analytics.
4. Access and Correction Rights
Under the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020, you have the right to request access to and correction of any personal information we hold about you. Because Glowcave Mania operates without user accounts, our ability to identify your specific data is highly limited. However, you may contact our support team to submit a request.
5. Disclosure to Third Parties
Glowcave Mania does not sell or rent your data to third parties. We may share anonymized, aggregated usage statistics with technical partners to improve games like Wheel of Echoes. Any disclosure is strictly limited to operational necessities.
6. Cross-Border Data Transfers
As a digital platform, Glowcave Mania may utilize servers located outside of New Zealand. We ensure that any offshore data processing complies with the privacy safeguards outlined in the Privacy Act 2020. Your gameplay data remains secure regardless of server location.
7. Game Data and Virtual Currency
Data regarding your progression in Lumina Threads and your Lumina Drops balance is stored locally on your device via browser storage. Clearing your browser data will reset your balance. We do not maintain central databases of individual user balances.
8. Complaints to the Privacy Commissioner
If you believe Glowcave Mania has breached your privacy rights, you may contact us first to resolve the issue. If you are unsatisfied with our response, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner in New Zealand.
