Privacy Policy
Last updated: Set 22, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains what data It'llHold (the “Service”, the “Application”) collects, how we use it, who we share it with, and the rights you have over your data. By using It'llHold you agree to the practices described below.
1. Who We Are
It'llHold is operated by CORS Services, Rua do Pocinho, Chaos, Portugal (“we”, “us”, “our”). We are the data controller for the purposes of EU/UK data protection law.Questions or requests: hugo@cors.digital
2. Data We Collect
We deliberately collect as little as possible. It'llHold does not require an account, email address, or phone number to play.
Collected when you play
Collected when you submit a run to the leaderboard
Collected incidentally by our servers
What we do NOT collectWe do not collect: email address, phone number, real name, postal address, precise or coarse location, contacts, calendar, photos, microphone or camera access, the IDFA (iOS) or Advertising ID (Android), cross-app or cross-website tracking data, biometric data, or payment information.
- Device identifier — a unique ID generated by your device, or, on platforms that don’t expose one, a random UUID generated and stored locally. Used to authenticate your device to our leaderboard server without requiring you to sign in.
- Platform — the operating system family (iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, Web) of the device you’re playing on.
Collected when you submit a run to the leaderboard
- Display name — a name you choose, shown publicly on the leaderboard. Names are automatically screened and replaced if they contain profanity, hate speech, impersonate staff (e.g. “Admin”), or otherwise violate community standards.
- Game session data — for each run you finish: score, number of rounds completed, duration in seconds, game mode, and outcome (win/lose).
- Idempotency identifier — a client-generated UUID per run to prevent duplicate submissions on retry.
Collected incidentally by our servers
- IP address — recorded in server access logs for security, rate-limiting, and abuse prevention. Logs are retained for up to 30 days.
What we do NOT collectWe do not collect: email address, phone number, real name, postal address, precise or coarse location, contacts, calendar, photos, microphone or camera access, the IDFA (iOS) or Advertising ID (Android), cross-app or cross-website tracking data, biometric data, or payment information.

4. Who We Share Your Data With
4. Who We Share Your Data With
- Display name + score + rank are public — visible to other players via the in-app leaderboard and the optional public web leaderboard.
- Hosting provider — our backend runs on third-party infrastructure within the European Union. The provider stores data on our behalf under a Data Processing Agreement and does not use it for any other purpose.
- Law enforcement / legal requests — we may disclose data if required by a valid legal process (court order, subpoena) or to protect the rights, safety, or property of CORS Services, our users, or the public.
- Business transfers — if CORS Services is acquired or merged, your data may transfer to the successor entity. We will notify you and update this policy before any such transfer takes effect.
5. Where Your Data Is Stored
Game servers are hosted within the European Union and operated by CORS Services from Portugal. Your data is processed and stored on EU infrastructure. If you access the Service from outside the EU, your data may be transferred to and processed in the EU, which is recognized as providing an adequate level of data protection.
6. How Long We Keep Your Data
We retain data only as long as needed for the purposes above. Where possible we shorten retention or anonymize.DataRetentionDevice record + accountFor the life of your account, plus up to 24 months after deletion to handle disputesDisplay name + leaderboard entriesFor the life of your accountIndividual game sessionsUp to 24 monthsServer access logs (IPs)Up to 30 daysBackup copiesUp to 30 days after deletion from productionWe may retain data longer where required by law or to defend legal claims.

9. User-Generated Content
The display name you choose appears publicly on the leaderboard and is visible to other players. We do not tolerate objectionable content. We automatically screen and replace names that:
- Contain profanity, slurs, or sexually explicit language
- Impersonate staff or system accounts (e.g. “Admin”, “Moderator”)

11. Children’s Privacy
It'llHold is not intended for children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 16. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at hugo@cors.digital and we will delete it.
12. Security
We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including TLS encryption in transit and access controls on our servers. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security; we do commit to using commercially reasonable means to protect what we hold.
13. Third-Party Links
The Service may contain links to third-party websites (for example, our support address, app store pages, or our company site). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. Review their policies before submitting any information.
14. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top, and — for material changes — display a prominent in-app banner on next launch. Continued use of the Service after a change indicates acceptance.
