JoyCode Studios Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

JoyAccount's are part of JoyCode Studios, built to support creative play, storytelling, and modding adventures. We care deeply about your privacy and safety.

2. What We Collect

• Username (from OAuth providers like Google or GitHub)
• Email address (for email/password sign-ups)
• Profile picture (if provided)

We do not collect your password directly — Firebase handles that securely.

We use this information to:

• Let you sign in and save your progress
• Personalize your experience
• Keep your account secure
• Improve JoyCode features over time

We never sell your data or use it for ads.

4. How We Store and Protect Your Data

Your data is stored securely using Firebase Authentication and Firestore. We use encryption and access controls to keep everything safe.

5. Your Rights (Under GDPR)

If you live in the UK or EU, you have the right to:

• Access your data
• Correct inaccurate info
• Delete your account
• Ask questions about how your data is used

To do any of these, contact us at: macaulayfernandeschannel@gmail.com

These also apply to users outside the UK and EU.

6. Third-Party Services

We use Firebase by Google to manage accounts. Their privacy policy is here: Google Privacy Policy

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the JoyCode Studios platform and JoyAccount system grows. We’ll post updates here and let you know if anything major changes.
