• Gameplay & Rewards Data: We track your in-game statistics, matches played, match outcomes, leaderboards, and virtual coin balances (AdCoins and RewardCoins).

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for the following purposes:

• To verify your identity, secure your account, and manage your virtual wallet balances.
• To facilitate matchmaking for real-time 1v1 multiplayer games and tournaments.
• To display advertising placements that allow you to earn AdCoins.
