Last Updated: May 16, 2026

VocalSync LLC (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “Company”) operates the website https://cinegameworld.com (the “Site”) and the CINE Game World multiplayer video game and related services (the “Game,” together with the Site, the “Services”).

VocalSync LLC is a company located in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA, and is the entity providing all products and services for cinegameworld.com and CINE Game World.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Services. By accessing or using our Services, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Services.

1. Who We Are and Scope

We are the developers and operators of CINE Game World, a creative world-building roleplaying sandbox game with multiplayer features, world hosting, exploration, and community tools.

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through the Site and the Game, including accounts, in-game interactions, forums, support, and related services. It does not apply to third-party platforms we do not control, including Patreon.

Important Note on Access: You do not need to log in with a Patreon account (or have any paid membership) to view or access public content on our website and in the Game. However, certain member-only features, perks, and exclusive content are available only to verified paying Patreon members.

2. Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

  • Account registration: username, email address, password (hashed), and optional profile details (e.g., display name, bio).
  • Patreon Account Login (Optional): You may choose to log into our website using your Patreon account to verify your membership tier and unlock member perks and exclusive features. Logging in with Patreon is completely optional. When you authenticate via Patreon, we receive limited profile information from them (such as your Patreon username, email address, membership tier/status, and patron ID). We do not receive your full payment details or any unrelated Patreon data.
  • In-game and community content: worlds you build/host, comments, forum posts, uploaded media, chat/text/voice communications (if enabled).
  • Support or contact requests and purchase information.

Information Collected Automatically

  • Device and usage data: IP address, device type, operating system, browser, unique device identifiers, game client version.
  • Gameplay and interaction data: playtime, worlds visited/hosted, actions, achievements, scores, session logs, crash reports.
  • Approximate location (country/city level) derived from IP address.
  • Cookies, local storage, and similar tracking technologies.

Information from Third Parties

  • Patreon (only when you choose to log in via Patreon).
  • Gravatar (for comments).
  • Analytics providers, anti-cheat services, and other service providers.

We collect only the information reasonably necessary to provide and improve the Services (data minimization).

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

  • Provide and operate the Services, including account management, multiplayer hosting, world sharing, and chat.
  • Verify your Patreon membership tier (if linked) to grant appropriate member perks and access levels.
  • Personalize your experience and recommend content.
  • Improve the Game through analytics, bug fixes, and balancing.
  • Ensure safety and moderation (anti-cheat, spam detection, rule enforcement).
  • Communicate with you (service updates, security alerts, support; you may opt out of marketing).
  • Comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud, and enforce our Terms of Service.
  • Generate aggregated/anonymized insights.

4. Legal Basis for Processing (Where Applicable)

For users in regions such as the EU/UK (GDPR) or similar frameworks, we rely on performance of contract, legitimate interests, consent, or legal obligations as applicable.

5. Children’s Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. If we discover we have inadvertently collected such data, we will delete it promptly. Parents may contact us at support@cinegameworld.com. Users aged 13–17 are encouraged to involve a parent or guardian.

6. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information in these limited situations:

  • Service Providers: Hosting, analytics, anti-cheat, cloud, and payment processors under strict data protection contracts.
  • Patreon: When you choose to log in with Patreon, we share a limited amount of information (e.g., your CINE Game World account identifier) to authenticate you and confirm your active membership status. Patreon processes this under its own privacy policy.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or similar transaction.
  • Legal and Safety: To comply with law, respond to valid legal requests, protect the safety of users or the public, or enforce our rights.
  • With Your Consent: For public profiles, shared worlds, or optional features.
  • Aggregated or anonymized data that does not identify you personally.

7. Cookies, Tracking Technologies, and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies for site functionality, preferences, analytics, and security. You can manage cookies through your browser settings, though disabling them may impact functionality. We may use tools such as Google Analytics for aggregated usage insights.

8. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. However, no system is completely secure. You are responsible for keeping your account credentials confidential and should notify us immediately of any suspected security breach.

9. Data Retention

We retain your information only as long as necessary for the purposes described or as required by law.

  • Account data is kept while your account is active, plus a reasonable period for backups and legal compliance.
  • Public content (comments, worlds) may remain indefinitely unless removed.
  • Gameplay logs are retained for limited periods for moderation and security.

10. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your data, opt out of certain processing, or withdraw consent.

  • You can view, edit, or delete most of your personal information in your account settings (except username).
  • You can unlink your Patreon account at any time in your account settings. This will not cancel your Patreon subscription but will remove access to member-only perks.
  • To exercise any rights, contact us at support@cinegameworld.com. We will verify your identity and respond within applicable legal timeframes. We do not discriminate against users who exercise their privacy rights.

We do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals but honor opt-out requests where required.

11. International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed in the United States or other countries. We use appropriate safeguards for transfers outside your jurisdiction.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version with an updated “Last Updated” date and notify you of material changes via email, in-game notice, or on the Site. Your continued use of the Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
