Privacy Policy

This page applies to Valoria Academy - Hero Training, the browser game operated by Grimm Legacy Labs, a UK sole trader.

What Google Sign-In provides

When you choose Google Sign-In, Valoria Academy requests the basic sign-in, email and profile scopes. Google and Firebase Authentication provide the account identifier, email address, email verification status, display name and profile photo URL associated with that sign-in. Firebase assigns a game account identifier. The game requests access only to the basic sign-in profile. It does not request access to Gmail messages, Drive files, contacts or calendars.

How we use and store account information

We use the identifiers and sign-in provider to authenticate you and associate your cloud save with the correct account. We use the email address and verification status to identify and verify accounts, and to help with account access or support. Your display name personalises your profile and is the default for your in-game name, which you can change. The photo URL is stored with the account profile and can be used to show an account image. Firebase Authentication handles the sign-in, and the game stores account metadata and game records in Cloud Firestore.

What other players can see

Your in-game display name, selected game avatar or title, rankings, eligible hero details and team information may appear in multiplayer features. Arena participants can access their match results and replays. Your sign-in email address and Google profile photo URL are not published in rankings. We do not sell Google account data or use it for targeted advertising.

Game records, security and support

We store your cloud save, roster, inventory, currencies, expedition and match activity, and action receipts. We use these records to restore progress, calculate rewards and rankings, prevent abuse or duplicate credits, and investigate support requests. If you contact support, we use the information you supply to respond.

Service providers and payments

Google Firebase provides hosting, authentication and storage. Where enabled, Google reCAPTCHA Enterprise helps protect game services against abuse. These services process data needed to provide those functions. If you choose to buy something, PayPal processes the payment. Checkout associates the order with a game account identifier and the selected product. We verify the order status, amount and currency and retain the order reference and credit record to fulfil the purchase, prevent duplicate credits and handle billing queries. Valoria Academy does not receive your full card number. Google sign-in profile data is not sent to PayPal as part of the game's checkout request.

Browser storage and retention

The game uses browser storage for preferences and recovering pending checkouts. We keep account and cloud save data while needed to provide the game. Transaction and security records may be retained where needed to resolve disputes, prevent abuse or meet applicable legal obligations.

Access, correction and deletion

Email Grimm Legacy Labs at grimmlegacies@gmail.com to request access to, correction of or deletion of your game account data. We may verify that the request concerns your account. You can also remove the game's access from your Google Account settings. Removing access stops future sign-in through that connection and does not by itself delete existing game data.
