Holiday Alliance is a single-player tower-defense game. We designed it to respect your privacy: we operate no servers of our own, run no analytics, and never sell your data. On phones and tablets the game offers an optional rewarded video ad, described under Advertising below; that is the only feature that involves anyone else's servers.
Joyner Labs LLC collects nothing. We operate no servers, no analytics and no tracking SDKs, and no information about you is sent to us.
The one exception to data leaving your device is the optional rewarded ad on the mobile versions. If you choose to watch one, Google's advertising service receives information from your device in order to serve it — see Advertising below. The Steam / desktop version contains no advertising of any kind and sends nothing anywhere.
To let you keep playing where you left off, the game saves the following locally on your device only (in your device's app storage):
This data never leaves your device, is not readable by us, and is removed if you uninstall the app or clear its data.
If a future version connects to your platform's game service (for example Google Play Games or Apple Game Center) to show achievements, that sign-in and any data it involves are governed by that platform's own privacy policy (Google / Apple), not by us. We would receive only an anonymous player identifier used to record achievement unlocks — never your name, email, contacts, or location. (As of the initial release, achievements are handled entirely on-device and no platform sign-in occurs.)
Holiday Alliance is intended for a general audience aged 13 and older. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. The game is not published under Google Play's Families programme, advertising is configured for a teen-and-older content rating, and we do not tag any user as being under the age of consent.
Mobile only (Android and iOS). The Steam / desktop version shows no ads.
Holiday Alliance shows one kind of ad: a rewarded video you choose to watch, and only in one place — after you lose a level, if you want to continue that run. There are no banner ads, and no ads that interrupt play. Declining costs you nothing but the continue.
Ads are served by Google AdMob (Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC). When an ad is requested, AdMob receives information from your device — typically your device's advertising identifier, IP address, device and OS type, and general location derived from the IP address — which Google uses to select and measure the ad. That processing is governed by Google's own privacy policy and Google's advertising disclosures. We never receive that information.
Your choices.
Chapter 1 of Holiday Alliance is free to play on mobile, with a single optional in-app purchase: an ad-free unlock that permanently removes advertising. The Steam / desktop version is a paid game with no in-app purchases.
Purchases are handled entirely by the platform's own billing system (Google Play or the App Store), which processes the payment under its own privacy policy. We do not receive or store your payment details. Your device keeps a local record of what you own so the game can honour it offline, and the platform can restore it if you reinstall.
We do not sell your data, and we never will. We collect none ourselves, and we share none with anyone — the only third party involved is Google, and only for the optional ad described above, under Google's own policy rather than through us.
If this policy changes, we will update the effective date above and post the revised version at the same URL. Material changes will accompany an app update.
