This Privacy Policy describes how MetaWorldOS (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information about you when you use our website. By using the site, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide. When you sign in to save your progress, we collect your account profile (name, email, avatar) from the authentication provider you choose (Google, GitHub, etc.).
Information collected automatically. When you use the site, our servers and analytics providers automatically log basic technical data: IP address, device and browser type, operating system, referring page, pages visited, and timestamps. We use this to keep the service secure, debug issues, and understand how features are used.
Game state. Product features that depend on local progression (such as the Cat Planet collection or the Pet Metaverse studio) store gameplay state in your browser’s local storage and, if you are signed in, on our servers tied to your account.
2. How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the service.
- To save and synchronize your gameplay progress across devices.
- To communicate with you about service updates or support requests.
- To detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or security issues.
- To comply with legal obligations.
