Privacy Policy
Lonesmith ("we", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect through Sir Knight: Idle RPG (the "Service"), why, and how long we keep it.
1. Information we collect
| Category | Items |
|---|---|
| Login / account | Google or Apple account identifier, or a guest account number; nickname |
| Environment | Country and language, device identifier, device model, OS and app version, IP address, access records |
| Service use | Game progress, owned items, summon records, chat messages, friend list and friend requests, guild membership and activity (contribution, guild war participation), last access time |
| Payments | Purchase history (card details are handled by Google or Apple; we do not receive them) |
| Notifications | Push notification token; notification preferences (on/off per group, and whether and when you agreed to receive promotional notifications) |
| Quality | Crash and performance logs (Firebase) |
| Advertising | Advertising identifier (only when ads are shown) |
We do not collect your date of birth. Age is determined only from the age signal provided by the app store (Google or Apple).
2. Purposes
- Identifying accounts, login, account linking, and saving and restoring progress
- Providing the Service (battles, growth, summons, chat), processing payments, handling refunds and disputes
- Preventing abuse, securing the Service, and analyzing errors
- Sending announcements and push notifications, and answering inquiries
- Showing advertising (only when ads are shown)
3. Retention
- Account and game data: until you delete your account. Deletion is finalized after a 7-day grace period following your request, and the data is then destroyed without delay.
- Friend relationships and requests: when deletion is finalized, all friend relationships involving you are deleted. Your nickname in guild member lists and guild war records is replaced with a deletion label (the guild records themselves are kept).
- Access records and usage logs: 3 months
- Chat messages: 3 months (longer only while a report or dispute about a message is being handled)
- Chat report records (reported message and report details): 12 months
- PvP battle replays: 7 days (longer for top-ranked or reported battles, until the review is finished)
- Summon (gacha) records: 12 months (may be adjusted to comply with randomized-item regulations)
- Payment and delivery records: 5 years, as required by consumer protection law
- Usage records after account deletion (item and currency flow, onboarding usage statistics): when you delete your account, your account information is destroyed and these records are kept only in a form in which the link to you has been irreversibly cut (pseudonymized) — your identifier is hashed together with a random value that is then discarded. They are kept for 3 months (item and currency records) or 6 months (onboarding statistics) and then deleted.
- Operations (administrator action) records: 2 years
- Longer, where other laws require it
4. Sharing, processors and international transfers
We do not provide your personal information to third parties without your consent. We use the following service providers to operate the Service.
| Provider | Purpose | Location |
|---|---|---|
| Google LLC (Firebase, AdMob, Google Play billing and sign-in) | Sign-in, crash and performance analysis, payments, ads | United States and others |
| Apple Inc. (Sign in with Apple, in-app purchase) | Sign-in, payments | United States and others |
| Unity Technologies (Unity payment service) | Purchase verification | United States and others |
| Amazon Web Services (Seoul region) | Servers and data storage | Republic of Korea |
Chat translation. Message translation runs on your device (Google ML Kit); chat text is not sent to any external server. When you turn it on, translation language packs (about 33–48 MB each) are downloaded from Google, over Wi-Fi unless you allow mobile data. Google ML Kit may send Google your device information (manufacturer, model, OS version), our app name and version, a per-installation identifier, performance metrics and the configured translation languages for diagnostics and analytics. Language packs can be deleted in Settings.
Data sent abroad is transmitted over the network when you use the Service and kept until the purposes above end. You may stop using the Service and delete your account if you do not want this transfer, but the Service will then be unavailable to you.
5. Destruction
When the retention period ends or the purpose is achieved, we destroy the information without delay, deleting electronic files in a way that cannot be recovered.
6. Your rights
You may view, correct or delete your information at any time. Use the account deletion function in the in-game settings or contact us below. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 14; a legal guardian may exercise these rights on a child's behalf.
7. Probability information
The drop rates of summons in the Service are disclosed on the in-game summon screen and on this site.
8. Security
We take technical and administrative measures such as encrypted communication, access control and access logging to protect personal information.

If this policy changes, we will announce it in the Service or on this site at least 7 days before it takes effect, and at least 30 days before for changes that are unfavorable to you.
