Privacy Policy

1. Our Commitment to Privacy

At Bearyon Social Casino, we respect your privacy and are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of the limited information we collect. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle data when you use our free-play entertainment platform.

Bearyon is designed to minimize data collection. We do not require user accounts, and we do not collect personal identification information for basic platform usage.

2. Information Collection

2.1 Automatically Collected Technical Information

When you visit Bearyon, certain technical information is automatically collected through your web browser:

• Browser Data: Browser type, version, language settings, and installed plugins
• Device Information: Device type, operating system, screen resolution, and hardware specifications
• Connection Data: IP address (anonymized when possible), internet service provider, and connection type
• Usage Information: Pages accessed, time spent on each page, navigation paths, and referring websites
• Interaction Data: Game selections, button clicks, and general platform interactions

This technical information helps us ensure proper platform functionality, optimize performance, and diagnose technical issues.

2.2 Browser Storage Mechanisms

Bearyon uses browser-based storage for essential functionality:

• Age Verification Storage: Your age verification response is stored in browser localStorage to prevent repeated verification prompts on future visits
• Session Management: Temporary session data to maintain game states and preferences during your visit
• Preference Storage: Optional settings and preferences you configure while using the platform

All storage is local to your device and can be cleared through your browser settings at any time.

2.3 Information We Do NOT Collect

Bearyon's privacy-focused design means we deliberately avoid collecting:

• Names, email addresses, or contact information of any kind
• Physical addresses or postal codes
• Financial information or payment details (we accept no payments)
• Government-issued identification numbers
• Biometric data or facial recognition information
• Precise geolocation data beyond general country/region
• Social media profiles or login credentials

3. How We Use Information

The limited technical information we collect serves specific functional purposes:

3.1 Platform Operation

• Delivering game content to your browser correctly
• Ensuring compatibility with your device and browser
• Loading appropriate layouts and responsive designs
• Maintaining session continuity during your visit

3.2 Technical Optimization

• Identifying and resolving technical errors or bugs
• Optimizing load times and performance
• Testing new features and improvements
• Understanding how users navigate the platform

3.3 Security and Compliance

• Protecting against malicious activities and attacks
• Enforcing age restrictions and terms of service
• Detecting and preventing abuse or exploitation
• Maintaining platform integrity and stability

3.4 What We DON'T Do With Information

• We do not sell or rent information to third parties
• We do not use data for targeted advertising
• We do not create user profiles for marketing purposes
• We do not track your activities across other websites
• We do not share data with data brokers or advertisers

4. Third-Party Services and Sharing

4.1 Limited Third-Party Integration

Bearyon minimizes third-party integrations. When third-party services are necessary for platform operation, we ensure they:

• Are essential for core functionality (hosting, content delivery, security)
• Have privacy policies that meet reasonable standards
• Are contractually obligated to protect any shared information
• Only receive the minimum data necessary for their specific function

4.2 Google Fonts

Bearyon uses Google Fonts to display custom typography. When you visit our site, your browser may connect to Google's servers to download font files. This connection is handled according to Google's privacy policy.

4.3 External Links

Our platform includes links to external resources, particularly responsible gaming organizations. When you click these links and leave Bearyon, you are subject to the privacy policies of those external sites. We recommend reviewing their privacy practices.

5. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect the limited information we collect:

• Secure Connections: HTTPS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and our servers
• Access Controls: Restricted access to backend systems and any stored data
• Security Monitoring: Regular monitoring for suspicious activities or security threats
• Software Updates: Keeping all platform components updated with latest security patches

While we implement these protections, please understand that no internet-based system can be 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security against all possible threats.

6. Data Retention

Bearyon's data retention approach reflects our minimal collection philosophy:

• Browser Storage: Data stored in your browser (age verification, preferences) remains until you manually clear it or until it expires based on browser policies
• Session Data: Temporary data exists only during your active browsing session and is automatically cleared when you close the browser
• Technical Logs: Server logs containing technical information are retained only as long as necessary for security, troubleshooting, and optimization purposes

7. Your Privacy Controls

You have several options to control your privacy when using Bearyon:

7.1 Browser Settings

• Clear your browser cache and localStorage to remove stored data
• Use private/incognito browsing mode for temporary sessions
• Configure browser settings to limit data storage and tracking
• Disable JavaScript (though this will prevent games from functioning)

7.2 Platform Choices

• You can choose not to use Bearyon if you're uncomfortable with any aspect of this policy
• You can access the platform without providing any personal information
• You can clear age verification data to reset your preferences

8. Children's Privacy

Bearyon is strictly intended for individuals 18 years of age or older. We do not knowingly collect information from minors.

Our age verification system is designed to prevent access by underage individuals. If we become aware that someone under 18 has accessed the platform, we will take immediate action to block further access and remove any associated data.

Parents and guardians should monitor internet usage and utilize parental control software to prevent children from accessing age-restricted content.

9. International Users and Data Transfers

Bearyon is accessible from locations worldwide. If you access the platform from outside your country of residence, please be aware that technical information may be transferred to and processed in different jurisdictions with varying data protection laws.

By using Bearyon, you consent to the transfer and processing of information as described in this Privacy Policy, regardless of where you are located.

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors.

When we make changes, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted prominently. Continued use of Bearyon after changes indicates acceptance of the updated policy.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy.

11. Legal Disclosure Requirements

While we prioritize user privacy, we may be required to disclose information in certain circumstances:

• In response to valid legal processes such as court orders or subpoenas
• To comply with applicable laws and regulations
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of Bearyon, our users, or the public
• To detect, prevent, or address fraud, security, or technical issues

We will make reasonable efforts to notify users of legal disclosure requests when permitted by law.
