You can play all of ARCANA without an account and without giving us any data. There are no analytics, no advertising, no tracking and no third-party SDKs. Only if you choose to create a Nubico Arcade account — it is optional and exists on the iOS and Android versions — do we store your email and your save, so you do not lose it when you change devices.
If you play without an account
The game saves your run and your preferences (progress, achievements, language and volume) to a file in your device's private storage. That information never leaves the device: we do not receive it and it is not shared with anyone. Uninstalling the app deletes it.
On launch, the mobile version asks our server which Nubico Arcade sign-in methods are available. That request carries no data about you and no device identifier; like any internet server, ours receives the IP address of the connection.
If you create a Nubico Arcade account
The account is voluntary. If you create one, we collect:
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| Your email address and password. If you sign in with Apple or Google, instead the identifier they give us for your account and your email (with Apple, the one you choose to share, which may be Apple's private relay address). | So you can sign in. |
| Your save and your progress: the run in progress, achievements, records, counters and game preferences. | So you can recover them on another device. |
A session key is also kept on your device, in the system keychain, so you are not asked for your password every time.
We use this data only to make the account and cloud saves work. We do not use it for advertising or profiling, and we do not sell it or share it with third parties. It is sent encrypted to our server (arcade.nubico.tech) and is linked to your account.
The Nubico Arcade account is the same across all Nubico games. The account panel may show the purchases associated with it, if there are any.
How long we keep it and how to delete it
We keep the data for as long as your account exists. You can delete it at any time from inside the game: in the Nubico Arcade panel, "Delete account". Doing so removes the account and everything stored in it. You can also ask us by email; the steps are on the support page.
Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct or delete your data, to receive a copy of it, or object to its processing, by writing to the contact address. If you believe we have not handled your request, you can complain to your country's data protection authority (in Spain, the AEPD).
Children
Playing requires no account and no data, regardless of age. The Nubico Arcade account is not intended for children under 14; if you believe a child has created one, write to us and we will delete it.
Third-party services
The app bundles no third-party SDKs that collect data: no ad networks and no analytics tools. If you sign in with Apple or Google, that sign-in is handled by them under their own policy, and we only receive what is listed above. If you choose to rate the game, your store listing (App Store or Google Play) opens. The Steam version has no Nubico Arcade account: there, achievements and cloud saves are handled by Steam under its own policy.
Changes to this policy
Should the game change how it handles data, we would update this page and the app before that change took effect.
