Welcome to Holy Tower Games! This Privacy Policy explains how Holy Tower Games ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your personal data when you visit our website (the "Site"), purchase or play our premium games on Steam or other PC platforms (the "Games"), or otherwise interact with us (collectively, the "Services").
We are committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal data in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the UK Data Protection Act, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
Holy Tower Games is an independent game development studio specializing in premium PC games.
For the purposes of applicable data protection legislation, Holy Tower Games is the Data Controller of your personal data collected directly through our website, future newsletters, and direct support interactions.
Please note: When you purchase or play our Games on Steam, Valve Corporation (operator of the Steam platform) acts as an independent data controller for your purchase transaction data and Steam account data. We encourage you to review Steam’s Privacy Policy to understand how they handle your data. All in-game progress, cloud saves, and achievements are managed entirely through Steam's native systems.
Our Services are not designed for or intentionally targeted at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in certain jurisdictions within the EU/EEA). We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or market to children.
If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal data from a child under the minimum age threshold without verifiable parental consent, we will take immediate steps to delete that information from our systems. If you believe we have accidentally collected data from a child, please contact us at [email protected].
Because we develop premium, pay-to-play Games, we do not display third-party behavioral ads, sell your game-play data, or use invasive ad-tracking networks within our Games. We limit our data collection to the absolute minimum required to provide, support, and improve our Games and Site.
