Privacy Policy
1. Developer and data controller
Car Crash Arena (the “Game”) is developed and operated by Eduardo Oscar Maiczak Jaeger, doing business as Leaf and Light Studio, located in Brazil. Eduardo Oscar Maiczak Jaeger determines the purposes and means of the processing described in this policy and is the data controller.
Privacy, support, deletion, and security contact: leafandlightstudio@gmail.com.
2. Specific data processed and how it is used
| Data | Collection and use |
|---|---|
| Meta Horizon User ID | An app-scoped identifier obtained through the Meta Horizon Platform SDK after entitlement and sign-in checks. The Game uses it to identify the signed-in player, associate local progress with that player, submit scores, and retrieve the correct leaderboard context. It is stored locally in the Game's app data on the headset and is not maintained in a separate Leaf and Light Studio server database. |
| Meta Horizon display name | The player's Meta Horizon username or display name is obtained through the Platform SDK, displayed in leaderboard rows, and stored locally in the Game's app data so the current player can be identified. The Game does not request or display Meta profile images. |
| Friends relationship filtering | When the player selects the Friends leaderboard, Meta Horizon filters leaderboard entries according to eligible Meta Horizon relationships. The Game does not request, download, or store a standalone friends, followers, or contacts list. |
| Leaderboard scores and gameplay statistics | The Game submits and retrieves scores, ranks, and related statistics through Meta Horizon leaderboards. The current leaderboards cover maximum coins, maximum green fluid, and maximum XP. These values may be associated with the player's Meta Horizon identity within Meta's leaderboard service. |
| Entitlement and technical platform responses | Meta may return entitlement status and technical success or error responses required to initialize the app and operate Platform SDK features. |
| Local installation identifier | When no Meta identity is available, the Game may generate a random identifier stored only in local app data to organize local progress. It is not derived from a hardware serial number or advertising identifier and is not transmitted to Leaf and Light Studio or used for cross-app tracking. |
| VR tracking and input data | The Game processes headset pose, controller pose, and controller button or axis input locally and in real time to provide the VR experience. Some builds may expose abstracted hand-tracking input through the Meta Quest/OpenXR runtime when that feature is enabled. Leaf and Light Studio does not record, upload, sell, or maintain a separate database of this tracking data. |
| Locally saved photo-mode images | If the player deliberately saves an in-game photo, the image is stored locally in the Game's app storage on that headset. Leaf and Light Studio does not automatically upload those images. |
| Support, deletion, or security communications | If you contact us, we receive your email address, message, and any information you choose to include so we can respond, verify a request, resolve a problem, or address a security report. |
At the effective date, the Game does not request Meta profile images, Meta user access tokens, microphone recordings, passthrough camera feeds, precise location, address-book contacts, eye tracking, face tracking, full-body tracking, or advertising identifiers.
3. Purposes and legal bases
We process the data described above only to authenticate the current Meta Horizon player; preserve and load local progress; submit and display scores; provide global and Friends leaderboards; operate real-time VR controls; save user-requested photo-mode images locally; prevent misuse; troubleshoot platform features; respond to support, deletion, and security requests; and comply with law.
Where applicable, the legal bases are providing the game experience requested by the player, our legitimate interests in operating and securing the Game, and compliance with legal obligations. We do not use Meta Horizon User Data or Device User Data for targeted advertising, cross-app tracking, unrelated profiling, or sale.
4. Leaderboard visibility and sharing
Scores, ranks, gameplay statistics, and Meta Horizon display names may be visible to other eligible Meta Horizon users through the Game's global leaderboard. The Friends leaderboard limits the returned entries according to relationship filtering performed by Meta Horizon. The Game does not display Meta profile images.
Meta Platforms, Inc. provides the Meta Horizon account, identity, entitlement, relationship-filtering, and leaderboard infrastructure. Data sent to or received from those platform services is also processed by Meta under Meta's own terms and privacy policies. Leaf and Light Studio does not authorize independent third parties to use this data for advertising or sale.
5. Storage and retention
- Local identity and progress: the app-scoped Meta Horizon User ID, display name, random local installation identifier, settings, and game progress may remain in local app storage on the headset until the player clears the Game's app data or uninstalls the Game.
- Leaderboard data: scores, ranks, display names, and related leaderboard statistics are stored through Meta Horizon platform services. Leaf and Light Studio does not maintain a separate server-side copy of that Meta profile data.
- Temporary data: leaderboard rows and VR input data held in memory are discarded when replaced, no longer needed, or when the Game session ends.
- Photo-mode images: locally saved images remain on the headset until the player deletes them, clears app data, or uninstalls the Game.
- Communications: support, deletion, and security emails are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to complete the request, preserve appropriate records, and comply with law.
The current Game build does not send Meta Horizon User Data or Device User Data to a developer-operated analytics, advertising, crash-reporting, or custom backend service.
6. Free deletion mechanism for every user
The right to request deletion is available free of charge to every Car Crash Arena user, regardless of country or region.
To request deletion:
- Open our public Data Deletion Instructions; or
- Email leafandlightstudio@gmail.com with the subject Car Crash Arena Data Deletion Request.
Include the Meta Horizon username or display name shown in the Game and, when possible, a screenshot of the relevant leaderboard row. Do not send a password, access token, app secret, or sensitive identity document. We may request limited additional information needed to verify and locate the request.
After reasonable verification, Leaf and Light Studio will delete eligible personal data under its control without undue delay, including applicable support communications and eligible Car Crash Arena leaderboard entries through available Meta developer tools. Local Game data cannot be deleted remotely by us because it remains on the user's headset; the player can remove it through the headset's app-storage controls or by uninstalling the Game.
Leaf and Light Studio does not control the user's general Meta account or account-level Meta Horizon profile. Requests concerning account-level records outside Car Crash Arena must be handled through Meta's privacy and account tools.
7. Other privacy rights
Depending on applicable law, users may also request confirmation of processing, access, correction, restriction, objection, portability, or information about sharing. These requests are available through the same contact mechanism above. In Brazil, applicable rights may arise under the LGPD.
8. Security and international processing
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the limited data involved. No transmission or storage method is completely secure. Meta may process platform data in countries other than the user's own as described in Meta's applicable privacy materials.
Security vulnerabilities concerning the Game or this website may be reported to leafandlightstudio@gmail.com with the subject Car Crash Arena Security Report.
9. Children's privacy
The Game is intended for players aged 13 and older and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal data to us, use the deletion mechanism above so we can take appropriate action.
10. Legal requests
We may disclose information if required by applicable law or valid legal process. As of the effective date, we have not provided users' personal data to public authorities in response to national-security requests during the preceding 12 months.
11. Changes and contact
We will update this policy before materially changing how the Game processes personal data. The revised version will remain available at this same public URL with an updated effective date.
