2. Data Collection Practices
Our Application operates by collecting minimal, necessary information to ensure functionality, security, and performance optimization. We maintain a strict policy of not gathering personally identifiable information including names, email addresses, or physical addresses. All collected data serves technical and operational purposes only.
2.1 Technical Data Collection
Our systems automatically gather the following categories of information upon installation, access, or usage of our Application:

Such information is crucial for maintaining compatibility, providing technical support, and ensuring security protocols.
Application Usage Analytics: We monitor your interactions within our Application to understand user behavior and improve service quality. This includes tracking which features you utilize, duration and frequency of usage sessions, performance metrics, error documentation, and crash reports. We aggregate and analyze this data to gain insights into user engagement patterns, allowing us to enhance Application performance and maintain system stability. This technical information forms the foundation of our ability to deliver and maintain our services effectively.

4. Information Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure
Protecting your trust is fundamental to our operations. We maintain a strict policy against selling, renting, or leasing your personal information to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes. Information sharing occurs only under the following carefully defined circumstances:
4.1 Legal Compliance Requirements
We may disclose collected information when legally required or when we reasonably believe such disclosure is necessary to comply with applicable laws. This includes responding to court orders, judicial processes, government subpoenas, warrants, or other legal requirements. We may also share information to cooperate with law enforcement agencies or other governmental bodies as mandated by applicable regulations.
4.2 Rights and Property Protection
We reserve the right to disclose information when we determine, in good faith, that disclosure is appropriate or necessary to:
• Protect Cozy Corner Games from potential legal liability
• Safeguard our users and ourselves from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful activities
• Investigate and defend against third-party claims, allegations, or legal actions
• Maintain the security and integrity of our Application and supporting infrastructure
• Protect the property, legal rights, and safety of Cozy Corner Games, our user community, and the general public

5. Data Protection and Security Framework
We have established and continuously maintain a robust, multi-layered security infrastructure designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, and destruction. Our comprehensive security approach includes:
Encryption Technologies: We implement advanced encryption protocols to secure data during network transmission (data-in-transit) and while stored within our facilities and systems (data-at-rest).
Access Management: Information access is restricted exclusively to authorized personnel whose job responsibilities require such access. We maintain strict role-based access controls, ensuring information is accessible only on a legitimate need-to-know basis.
Security Assessment Program: We conduct regular security evaluations, including penetration testing and comprehensive vulnerability assessments, to proactively identify and address potential system risks and weaknesses.
Real-Time Monitoring: Our infrastructure includes continuous monitoring systems that detect potential vulnerabilities, unauthorized access attempts, and security threats, enabling rapid response to any security incidents.
While we implement industry-standard security measures, no digital security system can guarantee absolute protection. The security of your information also depends on responsible usage of our Application. We encourage all users to engage with our service in a responsible manner.
