Privacy Policy
Last Updated: June 30, 2026
This Privacy Policy applies to the Shrimps mobile application and related online services operated by NeuronsLimited Studios (collectively, the “Application”). In this Privacy Policy, NeuronsLimited Studios is referred to as the “Service Provider”, “we”, “our”, or “us”.
We respect your privacy and are committed to processing personal data in a lawful, fair, and transparent manner. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you use the Application, how that information is used, when it may be shared, how long it may be retained, and the rights available to you under applicable law.
1. Information Collection and Use
The Application is built with Unity and uses Epic Online Services (“EOS”) to support authentication, online multiplayer connectivity, and lobby management. Depending on how you use the Application, the following categories of information may be collected or processed:
- Information you provide directly: A nickname or player name chosen by you, room codes entered by you to join a session, and any information you provide when contacting us for support.
- Multiplayer and account-related information:Device-based EOS authentication data, EOS Product User IDs, lobby identifiers, host or session user identifiers, room codes, and room visibility settings such as whether a room is public or private, to the extent necessary to create, discover, join, host, maintain, and secure multiplayer sessions.
- Technical and device information: Device model, mobile operating system, network-related information such as IP address, and other technical information that may be processed by EOS or distribution platforms in order to provide online features, security, and basic service functionality.
- Locally stored gameplay preferences: The nickname you last used, the current saved player name, and your selected shrimp or character choice stored locally on your device through Unity PlayerPrefs.
Your chosen nickname may be displayed to other players during multiplayer gameplay. For that reason, you should not use sensitive personal information, a real full name, or other confidential information as your nickname or room code.
The current version of the Application does not intentionally enable voice chat or record microphone audio as part of its normal gameplay flow.
2. How We Collect Information
Information may be collected through the following sources:
- Directly from you when you choose a nickname, enter a room code, or contact us.
- Automatically through the Application and EOS when you authenticate, create or join lobbies, connect to multiplayer sessions, or use online functionality.
- Through local device storage used by the Application to remember gameplay preferences and settings between sessions.
- Through app stores, platform providers, or service providers that distribute or support the Application.
3. How We Use Your Information
We may use the information described above to:
- Operate, provide, maintain, and improve the Application.
- Authenticate users and establish online multiplayer sessions.
- Create, advertise, discover, join, and manage multiplayer lobbies.
- Display player nicknames during online gameplay.
- Store gameplay preferences locally on your device.
- Maintain service security, prevent abuse, debug errors, and protect integrity.
- Respond to support requests and comply with legal obligations.
Where applicable under EEA, UK, or similar privacy laws, our processing may rely on one or more of the following legal bases: performance of a contract, legitimate interests in operating and securing the Application, compliance with legal obligations, and your consent where consent is required by law.
4. Third Party Access and Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may disclose or make information available only where reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to:
- Epic Online Services: for authentication, lobby management, and online multiplayer functionality.
- Platform and distribution providers: such as Google Play, Apple, or other stores or platform operators through which the Application is distributed or supported.
- Technical service providers: where needed to host, secure, or support the Application and related services.
- Authorities or other parties: where disclosure is required by law, legal process, or to protect rights, safety, and the integrity of the Application.
The Application uses third-party services that have their own privacy practices. We recommend reviewing their policies where relevant:
5. International Data Transfers
The Service Provider and its third-party service providers may process or transfer information in countries outside your country of residence, including outside the European Economic Area. Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, we will rely on appropriate legal mechanisms such as standard contractual clauses, adequacy decisions, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
6. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to operate the Application, maintain account and multiplayer functionality, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations.
Locally stored gameplay preferences may remain on your device until you remove the Application or clear the Application's local data. Information processed by third party platforms or service providers may be retained according to their own privacy policies and legal obligations.
7. Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to certain processing, data portability where applicable, and withdrawal of consent where processing is based on consent.
California residents may also have rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know, delete, correct, and receive information regarding certain categories of data processing, subject to applicable exceptions.
To exercise any of your rights, please contact us at neuronslimitedstudios@gmail.com.
9. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Application itself does not operate like a traditional website and does not rely on browser cookies for its core gameplay. However, third-party SDKs, online service providers, or distribution platforms may use similar technologies, local storage, identifiers, logs, or equivalent mechanisms to support authentication, service delivery, security, and functionality.
Where consent is required by applicable law for non-essential technologies, such consent will be requested by the relevant service provider or platform where applicable.
10. Children's Privacy
The Application is not directed to children under 13 years of age. Where a higher minimum age or parental or guardian consent is required by applicable local law, the Application is not intended to be used in violation of those requirements. We do not knowingly solicit from children, or knowingly collect personal information from children, in violation of applicable law.
If you believe that a child has provided personal data in violation of applicable law, please contact us so that we can take appropriate steps.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any updated version will be posted with a revised “Last Updated” date. Where required by applicable law, we will seek any consent necessary before material changes take effect.
