1. TEXAS FOLD’EM PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updated: September 29, 2026

Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how FOLD’EM Gaming Inc. (“FOLD’EM,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects information in connection with the Texas Fold’Em mobile application, the website located at TexasFoldEm.com, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

Texas Fold’Em is currently offered as a free-to-play entertainment game. References on our website to FOLD’EM Poker & Casino or other real-money products do not mean those products are currently provided through the Texas Fold’Em application or governed by these Terms or this Privacy Policy.

By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

The information we collect depends on how you interact with Texas Fold’Em and our Services.

Account and Guest Information

Texas Fold’Em may be played as a guest or through a registered player account.

If you create an account, we may collect information necessary to create, authenticate, and maintain your account, including your email address and account authentication information.

If you play as a guest, you may use the game without creating a registered Texas Fold’Em account. We may nevertheless collect gameplay, device, analytics, and technical information associated with guest use as described below.

We use this information to operate, understand, maintain, and improve Texas Fold’Em.

These technologies may process device, application, advertising, attribution, engagement, performance, and gameplay-related information.

We may add, remove, or change service providers as the Services evolve. Where required, we will update this Privacy Policy to reflect material changes to our data practices.

2. In-App Purchases

Texas Fold’Em offers optional purchases of virtual items or virtual currency.

Purchases made through the Android application are processed through Google Play and its applicable payment systems.

FOLD’EM Gaming Inc. does not directly receive or store your complete payment-card information when a purchase is processed by Google Play.

We may receive transaction-related information necessary to fulfill and maintain purchases, such as:

  • The virtual product purchased;
  • Transaction or order information;
  • Transaction status;
  • Purchase value; and
  • Information necessary for customer support, accounting, fraud prevention, or transaction verification.

Virtual items purchased or obtained within Texas Fold’Em have no cash value and cannot be redeemed or withdrawn for real money.

3. How We Use Information

We may use information collected through the Services to:

  • Provide and operate Texas Fold’Em;
  • Create and maintain player accounts;
  • Authenticate registered players;
  • Maintain game progress and player information where supported;
  • Operate gameplay features and virtual economies;
  • Fulfill in-app purchases;
  • Provide rewards and game features;
  • Understand player engagement;
  • Improve gameplay, features, and user experience;
  • Diagnose crashes, bugs, and technical problems;
  • Maintain the security and integrity of the Services;
  • Detect and prevent fraud, cheating, abuse, or unauthorized activity;
  • Provide customer support;
  • Communicate with users;
  • Measure marketing and user-acquisition campaigns;
  • Analyze the performance of the Services;
  • Develop new features and services;
  • Maintain appropriate business and transaction records;
  • Comply with legal obligations; and
  • Protect FOLD’EM Gaming Inc., our users, and others.

We seek to limit our collection, use, disclosure, and retention of personal information to appropriate and identified purposes. This reflects Canada's privacy principles concerning limiting collection and retaining information only as long as necessary for identified purposes. Office of the Privacy Commissioner

4. Third-Party Services

We use third-party providers to help us operate, analyze, distribute, secure, and improve Texas Fold’Em.

These may include providers of:

  • Application distribution;
  • Cloud infrastructure;
  • Analytics;
  • Crash reporting;
  • Performance monitoring;
  • Marketing attribution;
  • Advertising measurement;
  • Payment processing;
  • Customer support; and
  • Other technical services.

Current services may include Google Play, Google Firebase/Google Analytics, and Singular.

Third-party providers may process information according to their own terms, privacy policies, and agreements with us.

5. Google Play

Texas Fold’Em is distributed through Google Play.

Google may independently collect and process information relating to downloads, purchases, devices, application usage, and interactions with Google Play according to Google's policies.

Our Google Play Data Safety disclosures are intended to describe the data collection and sharing practices associated with Texas Fold’Em, including relevant third-party SDK activity.

6. Virtual Currency and Virtual Items

Texas Fold’Em may provide virtual chips, currency, rewards, bonuses, or other virtual items.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, these items:

  • Have no real-world cash value;
  • Cannot be redeemed for cash;
  • Do not represent deposits or financial accounts;
  • Cannot be withdrawn as money; and
  • Exist solely for use within the functionality provided by Texas Fold’Em.

Information concerning virtual items may be recorded as part of your account or gameplay history.

7. How We Share Information

We may disclose information to third parties where reasonably necessary to operate and support the Services, including:

  • Technology and hosting providers;
  • Analytics providers;
  • Attribution and marketing providers;
  • Application stores and payment providers;
  • Professional advisers;
  • Service providers acting on our behalf;
  • Government authorities or law enforcement where disclosure is legally required; and
  • Other parties where reasonably necessary to protect our rights, users, systems, or property.

Information may also be transferred as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable law.

We do not treat your personal information as something to be sold merely because you use Texas Fold’Em.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including operating the Services, maintaining transaction and business records, providing support, resolving disputes, preventing fraud and abuse, and complying with legal obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the nature of the information and the purpose for which it is maintained.

When information is no longer reasonably required, we may delete, destroy, or anonymize it, subject to applicable legal requirements.

Canadian privacy guidance similarly provides that personal information should only be retained as long as necessary for its identified purposes and should subsequently be securely destroyed, erased, or anonymized. Office of the Privacy Commissioner

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, disclosure, loss, misuse, or alteration.

However, no mobile application, internet transmission, electronic database, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. Your Privacy Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights concerning your personal information.

These may include the right to:

  • Request access to personal information we hold about you;
  • Request correction of inaccurate information;
  • Request deletion of certain information;
  • Withdraw consent where applicable, subject to legal or contractual restrictions;
  • Ask questions about our privacy practices; and
  • Make a privacy-related complaint.

Canadian privacy principles provide individuals with rights concerning access to and correction of personal information held about them. Office of the Privacy Commissioner

11. Account and Data Deletion

Registered Texas Fold’Em players may request deletion of their account and associated personal information.

To request deletion, email:

info@texasfoldem.com

Please use the subject line “Account Deletion Request” and contact us from the email address associated with your Texas Fold’Em account where possible.

When an account is deleted, information associated with that account will be deleted or anonymized except for information we are permitted or required to retain for legitimate purposes such as security, fraud prevention, transaction records, dispute resolution, or legal compliance.

We may take reasonable steps to verify the identity of a person requesting deletion before processing the request.

Important: We are also working to ensure an account-deletion request path is readily available from within the Texas Fold’Em application.

Because your app permits account creation, Google Play requires both an in-app deletion path and an external web resource for initiating account deletion. Google Help

12. Children and Minors

Texas Fold’Em is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.

Where parental or guardian consent is required by applicable law, we expect such consent to be obtained before personal information is provided.

If we learn that personal information from a child has been collected in circumstances requiring consent that was not obtained, we will take reasonable steps to address or delete the information as required by applicable law.

A parent or guardian who believes a child has improperly provided us with personal information may contact us at info@texasfoldem.com.

13. International Processing

FOLD’EM Gaming Inc. is based in Ontario, Canada.

Our service providers may process or store information in Canada, the United States, or other countries.

As a result, personal information may be processed in jurisdictions with laws that differ from those in your place of residence and may be subject to lawful access by courts, law enforcement, or governmental authorities in those jurisdictions.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to Texas Fold’Em, our technology, service providers, business practices, or legal requirements.

When we update this Privacy Policy, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top.

Where required by applicable law, we may provide additional notice or obtain consent concerning material changes.
