| Record | Reason for keeping it | Period of keeping |
|---|---|---|
| Nickname | Addressing you by name in play | Until the visitor deletes the account |
| Email address | Recognising the account whenever you return to log in | Until the visitor deletes the account |
| Password hash | Verifying your login without the password ever being held by us | Until the visitor deletes the account |
| Sign-up date | Replying to correspondence and handling abuse | Until the visitor deletes the account |
The list ends there. At no point do we request your real name, address, date of birth, telephone number or any payment detail, as the house has nothing for sale. Passwords are stored solely as a one-way hash. Lawful basis: performance of a contract, namely providing the account you requested. Deleting the account erases every item above immediately, and the account page carries a button for the purpose.
| Record | Reason it is kept | Period of keeping |
|---|---|---|
| Balance of coins, level, missions and settings | Resuming play where it paused | Until the visitor clears browser data |
| Age confirmation | Avoiding a repeat of the question on each page | Until the visitor clears browser data |
| Cookie choice | Recording the consent you gave | Until the visitor clears browser data |
These details remain on your own device and are never transmitted to us.
When “Accept all” is chosen, Google Analytics and Google Ads tags measure visits and whether our advertising leads to play, for instance that a first spin occurred. Google receives your IP address, device information and those events. When “Essential only” is chosen, the tags operate in consent mode with neither cookies nor advertising identifiers. Lawful basis: consent.
Our hosting provider retains standard request logs, for security purposes and for a brief period only. Lawful basis: legitimate interests.
You are entitled to access, correct and erase your data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to withdraw consent whenever you wish. Removing your account from the account page erases its data immediately, and clearing this site’s data in your browser deletes whatever remains. Complaints may be made to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at priv.gc.ca.
Admission to Fernbloom House is limited to adults of 19 years or more. All play uses virtual coins of no monetary value, which can be neither bought nor sold, nor withdrawn, nor exchanged. The house keeps no coin shop and no payment page, awards no prizes of real-world value, and wishes to be clear that success in these games does not imply future success at real-money gambling.
