FORGEBORNE Privacy Policy
Who we are
FORGEBORNE is an independent dark-fantasy auto-battler. This policy describes what the app and this site actually do with data. Contact: unleashedgaming17400@gmail.com.
What the game itself stores
Game progress (deck, collection, currencies, settings, entitlements) is stored locally on the device. On iOS, if you are signed in to iCloud, a copy of your save may also sync to your own iCloud account (Apple's Key-Value Store) so progress can move between your devices. That copy is bound to your Apple ID and stored by Apple; the developer cannot read it. The game does not create an account, does not ask for your name or email in-app, and does not operate its own analytics, crash reporter, or social network.
Advertising (iOS only)
On the native iOS build, FORGEBORNE shows optional rewarded ads through Google AdMob so you can earn in-game gems or other optional rewards. The web version of the game served from this site does not show ads.
AdMob is a third-party advertising SDK. When an ad is requested or shown, Google and its advertising partners may collect:
- Device identifiers, including the advertising identifier (IDFA) if you allow tracking
- Approximate location derived from IP address
- Device and app information (model, OS version, app version, language)
- Ad activity (impressions, clicks, whether a rewarded ad was completed)
- Diagnostic information used to serve ads and prevent fraud
Before tracking you across apps and websites, iOS asks for permission through App Tracking Transparency. If you decline, ads can still appear, but they are not personalized using the advertising identifier. In regions that require it, a consent form (Google UMP) is also shown before personalized ads.
Google describes AdMob data practices here: AdMob and data disclosure and Google Privacy Policy.
Purchases
In-app purchases (gem packs and the 4X Battle Speed unlock) go through Apple. Apple processes payment data; the game never sees your card details. To manage purchases and restore them on new devices, FORGEBORNE uses RevenueCat, a third-party purchase-management service. RevenueCat receives the App Store transaction receipt, an anonymous app-generated user identifier, and a device identifier — not your name, email, or payment details. RevenueCat describes its practices here: RevenueCat Privacy Policy.
This website
This site is static pages hosted on GitHub Pages. We do not run our own cookies, accounts, or analytics on these pages. GitHub may collect standard server logs (IP address, user agent) as part of hosting. See GitHub's privacy statement.
Children
FORGEBORNE is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The game contains fantasy combat and sells randomized card packs.
What we do not do
- No first-party analytics SDK
- No account system or email list inside the game
- No sale of player data by the developer
- No location permission is requested by the app; any coarse location is inferred by the ad SDK from IP
Your choices
- iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking — control App Tracking Transparency
- iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Apple Advertising — limit ad tracking at the system level
- Reset or restrict the advertising identifier in iOS Settings
- You can play without watching rewarded ads; they are optional

If this policy changes, the new text will be published at this URL with an updated effective date.
