Protection Policy In the world of ODIN: Valhalla Rising, honor is earned on the battlefield — and trust is forged through protection. As you journey across realms, face mythic beasts, and carve your legend into the stone of Midgard, we are committed to guarding your data and securing your experience both in-game and online. This Protection Policy explains how we collect, manage, and defend your information as part of our ongoing mission to provide a fair, immersive, and secure MMORPG environment. 1. What We Collect To deliver a seamless experience across the Nine Realms, we may collect: Account-related information such as your username, linked platform ID, game progress, and character data. Technical information from your device including OS version, hardware type, and performance logs for optimization. Optional data from support interactions, surveys, or in-game reports to improve support and system functionality. All data collected is used strictly to enhance your gameplay, maintain system integrity, and support community interactions. 2. Data Protection and Storage We protect your information like a vault in Asgard: All personal and gameplay data is encrypted during transmission and stored in secure systems with limited access. Our servers are shielded by multi-layered firewalls, automated threat detection, and real-time security monitoring. Access to data is granted only to trained personnel under strict confidentiality protocols. We do not sell or trade your personal data to third parties. 3. Account and Session Security Your hero’s journey belongs to you alone: Login credentials are stored securely using industry-standard hashing and encryption. Login sessions are monitored for anomalies such as location shifts or repeated failed attempts. Players are encouraged to use strong, unique passwords and secure their platform accounts. 4. Anti-Cheat and Fair Play In the halls of Valhalla, only honorable warriors stand: We use real-time detection systems to monitor for cheating, automation tools, or unauthorized modifications. Exploiting bugs, modifying game clients, or using third-party software to gain advantage is strictly forbidden. Offending accounts may face action ranging from warnings to permanent bans, depending on the severity. 5. In-Game Transactions and Currency Protection If you purchase items, gear, or enhancements: Transactions are processed through secure payment gateways tied to your app platform (e.g., iOS, Android, PC). We do not store credit card or banking data on our servers. Any misuse of purchases, such as fraud, chargeback abuse, or unauthorized currency generation, may result in immediate restrictions or reversals. 6. Community Conduct and Communication ODIN: Valhalla Rising is a global experience — our community reflects that: In-game chat and guild communication are subject to moderation and community guidelines. Toxic behavior, harassment, spam, or hate speech will result in account warnings or access restrictions. Players can report inappropriate behavior through in-game tools or support channels. 7. Permissions and Player Privacy We respect your privacy — on every battlefield: Required permissions are clearly outlined and limited to necessary functions (e.g., notifications, storage access). We do not collect sensitive personal data such as microphone input, contacts, or location without explicit consent. All optional permissions are voluntary and revocable at any time via your device settings. 8. System Stability and Infrastructure Security Our systems are built for epic scale and reliability: Our infrastructure is maintained across secure, distributed servers to provide low-latency access across regions. DDoS protection, load balancing, and constant uptime monitoring ensure uninterrupted adventures. Maintenance windows are announced in advance to minimize disruption. 9. Violations and Enforcement Every violation of fairness is treated seriously: Abuse of bugs, currency duplication, account manipulation, or disruption of game services will trigger investigative action. Depending on the offense, penalties may include content resets, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans. Appeals may be reviewed by our support team, but decisions regarding serious abuse are final. 10. Policy Updates As ODIN: Valhalla Rising continues to grow and evolve, this Protection Policy may be updated to reflect new systems, technologies, or regulations. Any updates will be posted on our official site. Continued use of the game or its services confirms your acceptance of the latest policy version.
