Protection Policy In the realm of Clash of Kings: Legacy, strategy rules the battlefield — and security rules our kingdom. This Protection Policy explains how we protect your personal data, keep your empire safe from digital threats, and ensure fair play for all lords and rulers across the land. 1. Kingdom-Level Data Protection When you march into battle, we guard what matters: We collect only the data needed to support gameplay, such as your username, progress, alliance details, and device identifiers. Your information is encrypted both in transit and at rest — shielded from unauthorized access by design. We never sell or rent player data. Your realm is your own. 2. Account Security and Sovereignty Every ruler deserves a secure throne: Login details are stored using secure hashing, and we never store plain-text passwords. Multiple failed login attempts may trigger cooldowns or device checks to prevent unauthorized access. We recommend players avoid sharing accounts or credentials — your crown, your command. 3. Anti-Cheat and Fair War Policy Victory must be earned — not exploited: We actively monitor for cheating, including the use of unauthorized tools, scripts, or modifications that affect gameplay. Abnormal resource gains, speed hacks, or client tampering will result in automated detection and manual review. Consequences may include temporary exile (suspension), rollback of resources, or permanent banishment from the realm. 4. Transactions and Purchase Protection When gold is exchanged, honor must follow: All in-game purchases are processed through secure channels provided by official app platforms. We do not store your payment information and never request it directly through the game. Abusing refund systems or engaging in fraudulent purchases violates the spirit of fair trade and may lead to sanctions. 5. Social Conduct and Global Chat Behavior Diplomacy and warfare go hand-in-hand — but respect remains law: Global and alliance chats are moderated to prevent hate speech, spamming, threats, or impersonation. Communication systems include filtering tools and player reporting features. Persistent misconduct may lead to silencing, restricted access, or account action. 6. Permissions and Device Access Only what’s needed to serve your kingdom: Permissions may include storage access for saving game files and notifications for war alerts or event updates. We do not access photos, contacts, location, or other sensitive data unless explicitly requested for a feature — and never without consent. 7. Server Defense and Stability Our back-end fortress is strong: Servers are protected with layered defense systems, traffic filtering, and DDoS protection. We deploy real-time monitoring and scheduled maintenance to ensure fair and smooth gameplay. Downtime is minimized, and critical threats are addressed with priority response. 8. Abuse, Exploits, and Policy Violations Treachery has no place in the legacy: Exploiting bugs, duplicating resources, or manipulating rankings through deceit is strictly forbidden. Offending accounts may be restricted, flagged for investigation, or permanently removed from the battlefield. Reports of abuse are taken seriously and reviewed by dedicated moderators. 9. Policy Revisions As kingdoms expand and rules evolve, so will our protections: This Protection Policy may change in response to new systems, technologies, or threats. Continued use of the platform means you accept the current version as posted here.
