Privacy Policy

This privacy policy is effective as at March 31, 2023.

1 About us and this policy

Welcome to Red Detour’s privacy policy! We are a company called Red Detour, LLC, a Texas Limited Liability Company

This policy describes how we and our other group companies (referred to collectively in this policy as ‘Red Detour’ or ‘we’, us’ and ‘our’) collect, use, process and share information that Red Detour collects about you. Our business is constantly evolving and so this document may change from time to time. Please come back to this page every now and then to make sure you are familiar with the latest version. Any new policy will be effective from the date it is published by us.

This policy applies to all of our Applications, whether accessed on mobile devices, PC or on other platforms such as Facebook. It also applies to our advertising activities on all platforms as described below and other services that we may provide to you from time to time. In this policy, we refer to our applications, websites, advertising activities and other services collectively as our “Services”.

By downloading, accessing and/or interacting with our applications, or interacting with our websites or other Services, you agree to the use of your information in accordance with this privacy policy. If you have any concerns about providing information to us or it being used as described in this privacy policy you should not use our applications or other Services.

As set out in the terms and conditions relating to our Services, you must be at least 13 years old to access and/or use our Services. We do not knowingly collect personal data about children under the age of 13.

2 What types of information do we collect

We collect information from a number of different sources, but most of it comes directly from you when you interact with our applications, websites, advertising or other Services. Broadly the information we collect about you relates to the type of device you are using, how you interact with our applications (such as usage history and purchases made), other games or apps you use on your device and may include information that you submit when creating an account with us or which you allow us to access when you connect to your social network accounts through our applications or Services. We may also collect information from advertising platforms and partners and other third parties such as information about purchases and interests.

In more detail, depending on which of our Services you interact with we may collect and process the following types of information:

details about how you use and interact with our applications, advertising and other Services (for example, information about how and when you interact with our application(s) or visit our website(s), what device you use to access our applications and services or details regarding profile visits, as set out in the section entitled “Red Detour Profile” in section 3, below);

information that you provide us with when you fill in forms, answer questions or complete surveys when using any of our Services, when you create an account with us or if you invite your friends to use our applications and Services;

the content of messages sent using our chat and messaging systems;

if you contact us, for instance through our Red Detour support service channels, or respond to messages and communications that we send to you, we may keep a record of that correspondence;

your interactions with us on our social media channels;

information we collect via cookies and other similar technologies, as explained further below;

information we collect from you when you connect our applications or Services to third party platforms or social network services or use other social or user-to-user functionality; and

information we collect about you from our other group companies or other third-party companies (including publishing partners, platforms, advertising platforms and partners and data aggregators) which may include attributes about you and your interests, as well as other applications, games and services you use, demographic and general location information. We will use this information as described in this policy subject to any limitations in the privacy policy of the company that collected the information from you.

In some instances, when you make purchases on or through our application(s) or website(s), we may collect certain payment information from you on behalf of our payment service providers, but this information is temporarily cached in a way that is unreadable by Red Detour. We do not collect or retain credit card information. Our payment service providers will provide us with information about your purchases so that we know if a purchase has been successful. When you purchase items via our mobile apps (such as those you can purchase in the App Store, on Facebook or on Google Play) we do not collect or store any payment information from you.

Finally, we may collect some of the information types referred to above on an aggregated or anonymized basis, or we may use it or share it in an aggregated or anonymized way, for research or analysis into the way our Services operate and are used.

3 Creating a Red Detour Profile and using our applications socially

Red Detour Profile

In the future when you interact with our applications, we may give you a unique identifier which we will associate with a Red Detour account known as a “Red Detour Profile”. That Red Detour Profile will be specific to the Red Detour applications used on an individual platform or device and will remain anonymous unless you choose to add your personal information to that Red Detour Profile. You can choose to add your personal information to your Red Detour Profile so that you can log in on multiple devices and synchronize your account across multiple devices on multiple platforms.

Your Red Detour Profile and the information it contains, such as your specific applications usage, will be visible to other users of our services. If you choose to add personal information to your Red Detour Profile it will be visible to your friends and other users anywhere in the world.

Connecting with third party social networks

In the future, we may allow you to choose to log into your Red Detour Profile using your Facebook account details. If you do this, you will be able to use your Facebook account to log in on multiple devices and synchronize progress across those devices. We will receive some of your Facebook account information and exactly what information we receive will depend on your settings in your Facebook account. We may use this information for the purposes described in this privacy policy, including in order to advertise to you. Once connected in this way, you will also be able to see which of your friends are using the same application and their usage of the applications (and they will be able to see you and your usage). This may also allow you to access other functionality in our applications and other services, such as inviting friends to the application, asking other users for requests and messaging. Logging in with Facebook will not allow us to post anything to your Facebook page without your permission.

In the future, we may also allow you to associate your Red Detour Profile with other social network accounts and use your log in details for that account to log into your Red Detour Profile. Where we do this, either we or your social network service provider will let you know what information we will receive about you from that social network.

In the future if you connect or associate your Red Detour Profile with any third party social network or platform, that social network applications or platform will provide certain information about you to us. These social networks and platforms are created and maintained by a third party which is not a part of, or controlled by Red Detour. We may use this data for the purposes described in this privacy policy, including in order to advertise to you. You should ensure that you read the third party social network or platform’s terms of service and privacy policies to understand how they treat your data and what information they might share with us. You can make changes to what data a third party social network or platform shares with us, or stop our Services interacting with that social network or platform by adjusting your settings with that third-party provider, however you may find you are not able to enjoy all of the same features of our Services.

4 How do we use the information that we have about you?

We, our suppliers and group companies may use the information we collect about you for a number of purposes. These include providing our applications and other services to you, optimizing the applications and services we provide, enabling in-app purchases, storing your interactions throughout our applications, enabling social network integration, providing customer service support when you need it. We also use your information in connection with our advertising purposes. For more information, see below. We may also use your information for research or analysis. Finally, there may also be other reasons why we need to use your information, such as maintaining records or protecting our legal rights. A more detailed description of how we use your information is set out below.

Legal uses

We may use your data as required or permitted by any applicable law.

5 Advertising and promotion

What adverts you may see as a result of using our applications or Services

We promote our own applications and services in a number of ways. That might include cross promoting one of our applications while you are using a different application of ours. It might also include advertising our applications within websites and other media published by others, or sending you marketing materials by email.

Like many companies, we may use information about you in connection with advertising. This includes using information that we have about you, such as the applications you use, to try to make sure you only see advertising that might be of interest to you. We may also use the information that we have about you to help a third party deliver advertisements that are tailored to you based on a determination of your characteristics or interests by us based on the information that we have about you.

As well as advertisements for our own goods and services, we may also facilitate third parties to optimize their advertising of their own goods and services by helping them to target those ads to those that might be most interested in them. These advertisements may be shown within our applications or within websites and other media which are published by others and optimized by us or using our information. This is done using anonymized information and we won’t hand over or sell any of your personal information to third party advertisers.

We will also use information about your particular device in order to show you adverts which work properly on that device, or to measure the effectiveness of our ad campaigns and we may also retain information about how many times you have seen a particular advertisement so we can stop you from seeing it too many times.

Advertising partners

When we advertise, we may use various third party advertising partners, including ad exchanges, ad networks and ad servers.

Our advertising partners help us to serve advertisements to you. Some of this technology also helps us to make decisions as to whether or not to show a particular advert to you – for example, by informing us that you have shown an interest in similar goods or services previously.

Our advertising partners may collect information about you when you use our services or the services of others. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the collection of your information by our advertising partners, and we therefore recommend that you review their privacy policies for more information. You can find out more in “How to adjust your preferences” below.

How do ad identifiers, cookies and similar technologies work?

Advertisers on mobile devices sometimes use advertising (or ad) identifiers to enable and optimize their advertising. Ad identifiers are non-permanent, non-personal device identifiers such as the Android advertising ID and/or Apple’s ID for advertising, or IDFA. See below for you can reset these identifiers or indicate your preference that they should not be used for advertising purposes.

We and third parties who advertise on our Services may use cookies or similar technologies such as tracking pixels in their advertising. These technologies operate either by: (i) placing a small file which stores some information on your computer or mobile device; and/or (ii) by accessing information on your device. These technologies allow the collection of data, such as your device’s model, operating system and screen size, the other applications installed on your device, and information about how you use our services.

How to adjust your preferences

You can choose to prevent your device’s ad identifier being used for interest based advertising, or you can reset your device’s ad identifier, by changing the settings of your device. Settings vary from device to device but you will usually find the ad identifier settings under “privacy” or “ads” in your device’s settings.

You can disable cookies through your web or phone browser settings.

If you live in the USA, Europe or Canada, you can also opt-out from the collection of your information by some or all of our advertising partners who participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance by visiting http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ (for US users), http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ (for European users) or http://youradchoices.ca/choices (for Canadian users). You can also click on the AdChoices logo within an advertisement (where available).

Although we and our advertising partners use ad identifiers, cookies and similar technologies to enable us and third parties to provide more relevant advertising to you, these technologies also:

allow us to recognize you and your device;

allow our Services to interact with a third party social network or platform (where you have chosen to allow such interaction);

allow our payment processors to process your payment instructions; and

enable us and third parties to provide you with more customized services, for example to provide our services in the correct language.

As a result, if you choose to adjust your preferences in order to prevent these technologies, you may find that you cannot enjoy the full use of our services.

Please note that adjusting your preferences as described in this section does not mean you will no longer receive adverts, it only means the adverts you do see will be less relevant to your interests.

Alternatively, if you do not wish us to collect data as described in this section, you should stop using our services.
