Operator: Garnix Games (“we”, “us”). This policy describes how we handle information in connection with the Roolz game and related services (the “Service”).
1. Information we may collect
Account data: such as username, email address, and credentials you provide when you register or sign in.
Profile data: optional profile picture; “Playing from” country and (for the United States) state that you select in My Account; Banter home-field team selection and related display handle.
Gameplay and social data: information needed to operate multiplayer features (e.g., skirmish / war participation, in-game actions the server must validate, friend requests, Banter posts and replies, direct messages, blocks, and content reports).
Photos and videos: images and videos you choose to upload for Banter posts, profile pictures, Under Perro league pictures, or Hub scoreboard bids. Media is stored on our servers so we can display it in the Service and review it for moderation.
Under Perro data: when you use Under Perro, we collect league membership (leagues you host or join), league settings you create (name, bio, optional picture, scoring format — All Or Nothing or Against the Spread), invites and join requests, and your weekly underdog picks for each league. Picks are stored per league and do not automatically copy between leagues. We also store season point totals and leaderboard placements derived from those picks and from schedule results we maintain in-app.
Hub scoreboard bid data: when you use paid scoreboard message bids, we collect your bid amount, proposed LED message, optional picture you attach to the bid, display name (“from”), selected display date (UTC), payment status, and related transaction identifiers. Optional bid pictures are stored on our servers so operators can review them with your bid and, if you win, so we can display them with your scoreboard message as designed. Card and wallet payments are processed on Stripe-hosted pages; we receive payment confirmations and limited billing metadata from Stripe, not your full card number. On iOS, bid balance top-ups use Apple In-App Purchase.
Device and technical data: such as app version, basic diagnostics, and security-related logs to operate and protect the Service.
Advertising identifiers and ad data: when you use the free app, our advertising partner (Google AdMob) may collect or receive the Android advertising ID (or similar device identifiers), approximate/coarse location where permitted (typically inferred, not GPS from Roolz), app interactions with ads, and similar data to deliver, measure, and limit banner and interstitial advertising. See Google’s privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
Communications: messages you send to support or that you post through features we provide, as described in-product.
Sports information we display (not your personal data): schedules, scores, standings, rosters, box scores, and player statistics shown in Stats, Banter, and Under Perro. We copy that information from public sports sources so the Service can function. It is not information you submit about yourself.
2. How we use information
To create and maintain your account and provide the Service.
To operate matchmaking, sync game state, enforce rules, moderate user content, and prevent abuse or fraud.
To operate Under Perro leagues, weekly underdog picks, scoring (All Or Nothing and Against the Spread), and leaderboards.
To process scoreboard message bids (including optional bid pictures), payments, auctions, and display winning messages and associated pictures on the hub scoreboard.
To communicate with you about the Service (e.g., verification, password reset, important notices).
To improve reliability, security, and features (including aggregated or de-identified analytics where used).
To display advertising in the free app, including banner ads during play and a full-screen interstitial before Blitz playback begins.
To show unofficial schedules, scores, standings, rosters, and player stats in Stats, Banter, and Under Perro.
3. Sports information we display
Stats, Banter matchups, and related features show college football information gathered from publicly available sources (including ESPN-published pages and similar sports data). That information is used only to operate the Service as a fan/entertainment product. It is unofficial, may be delayed or wrong, and is not personal information about you unless you choose a home-field team or make picks that we store as account data (see sections 1 and 6).
We are not affiliated with ESPN, the NCAA, any school, or any player. Team names and logos belong to their owners. See the Terms of Service for the full unofficial-stats disclaimer.
4. Advertising
Roolz is free to download and supported in part by advertising. We use Google AdMob to show:
Banner ads at the bottom of the screen during most in-app navigation and gameplay (not on the login screen).
Interstitial ads immediately before live Blitz playback begins (after the Huddle/Snap phase).
AdMob may use cookies, mobile advertising identifiers, and similar technologies to serve ads, measure performance, and combat fraud. On iOS, you may see Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt; you can also limit ad tracking in your device settings (Settings → Privacy on iPhone).
We do not control the content of third-party ads. Report problematic ads through in-app support or your app store.
5. Payments (scoreboard bids)
Bid payments are handled by Stripe, Inc. When you pay, Stripe collects payment method details according to Stripe’s Privacy Policy. We store bid details (including optional pictures), payment status, Stripe checkout session identifiers, and related records needed to run the auction and show messages. We do not store your full payment card number on our servers.
6. Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
Service providers who assist us (e.g., hosting, email) under contractual obligations.
Payment processors: Stripe, Inc., to process bid payments and prevent fraud.
Advertising partners: Google AdMob (Google LLC) processes data to deliver and measure in-app ads as described above.
Legal and safety: when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and integrity of users and the Service.
Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, subject to appropriate notices where required.
Other players may see information you choose to expose in-game (e.g., username, profile elements, gameplay as designed, league membership and standings in Under Perro, underdog picks once the related game is Live or Final, or a winning scoreboard message, optional picture, and display name you bid).
7. Retention and account deletion
We retain information as long as needed to provide the Service, comply with law, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods may vary by data type and legal requirements.
You can request deletion of your account in the app via My Account → Close Account (password required). After closure, we stop normal use of your account credentials and remove or anonymize personal data as described in-product, subject to records we must keep for legal, security, or dispute-resolution purposes (for example, limited payment or abuse-prevention records).
8. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
9. Children
The Service is not directed to children under the age required by applicable law (often 13 in the U.S., or higher where local rules apply). Do not provide personal information or make paid bids if you do not meet the minimum age. If you believe we have collected information from a child inappropriately, contact us using the information below.
10. International users
If you access the Service from outside the country where our servers or operators are located, your information may be processed in other countries with different data protection laws.
11. Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal information, or to object or port data. Contact us to make a request. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
You can limit personalized advertising through your device settings (e.g., iPhone: Settings → Privacy → Tracking; Android: Settings → Google → Ads). On iOS you may also respond to Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt when shown.
12. Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the updated version and adjust the effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.
