Whotnite Privacy Policy
Effective date: 6 October 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how BATAR TECHNOLOGIES LTD, RC No. 9749137, of 3, JERRY ALOCHA, AGO PALACE WAY, LAGOS STATE, NIGERIA (Whotnite, we, us, or our) handles personal information in connection with Whotnite's website, mobile applications, card gameplay, and related services (the Service). BATAR TECHNOLOGIES LTD is the controller responsible for the processing described here.
Contact support@whotnite.com about privacy, a child's information, or an account-deletion request. Please read this Policy with our Terms of Service. This Policy is a notice about processing; reading or accepting it does not replace consent where consent is legally required.
1. Information we handle
Account and profile information: your email address, full name, gamer tag, password hash, country, timezone, account status, preferences, optional profile image, and social-profile details you choose to add.
Gameplay and social activity: game participation, progression and experience points, game state and results needed to operate play, selected skins and reactions, party membership, and player interactions. Different game features may retain different information; not every ordinary match becomes a permanent match-history record.
AI-player interactions: where AI features are enabled, relevant game-state information, gamer tags, and chat or mention context used to generate an AI player's decisions or responses. Generated response text may also be used to produce synthetic speech.
Device and session information: device and installation identifiers, operating system, device brand/model, session and authentication records, connection information, activity timestamps, and push-notification tokens where registered.
Purchase information: the selected card skin or pack, product and order identifiers, store transaction references, purchase status, and receipt or signed transaction information needed for fulfilment, restoration, and support. Payment-card details are handled by the relevant store rather than entered into Whotnite.
Optional images and voice: an image you choose to upload as your profile photo, and microphone audio transmitted during an enabled voice session. Device permission is required to access the relevant photo or microphone feature.
Advertising and technical information: information used by advertising services to deliver and measure ads, such as device/network characteristics and ad interactions, subject to the SDK settings, device permissions, and applicable law.
Support information: messages, transaction references, reports, and other information you provide when asking for help or exercising privacy rights.
We receive information directly from you, from your device and use of the Service, and from service providers such as app stores in connection with purchases. Do not upload another person's private information or image without the necessary permission. Do not send passwords, authentication codes, full payment-card details, or unnecessary sensitive information to support.
2. Why we use information
We use information to create and secure accounts; provide gameplay, matchmaking, parties, progression, cosmetic features, and enabled AI-player interactions; fulfil and restore purchases; operate optional photo and voice features; deliver requested notifications and service emails; respond to support requests; investigate misuse; maintain technical reliability; and meet applicable legal obligations.
Depending on the activity and the person's legal capacity, our lawful basis may be performance of an agreement, compliance with a legal obligation, a legitimate interest in operating and protecting the Service that is balanced against the person's rights, or valid consent. We must use a lawful basis appropriate to the circumstances, with particular care for children. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it by contacting support or changing the relevant permission or preference. Withdrawal does not invalidate earlier lawful processing.
3. Information other players can see
Your gamer tag, profile image, game participation, and other profile or game information made available through a feature may be visible to other users or participants. Information you choose to include in social-profile fields may also be visible through the Service. Keep personal contact details and sensitive information out of public profile fields.
When voice chat is enabled, other authorised participants can hear what you say. Your audio is transmitted using LiveKit to provide the voice feature. You can decline microphone permission or mute yourself through the available controls. Other participants may independently record or share what they hear; take care about information you disclose, and supervise children's voice interactions.
4. Service providers and other sharing
Information is shared where necessary for the relevant feature or purpose, including:
Hosting and storage providers: infrastructure used to run the API, database, game-state services, and website.
Apple and Google: app distribution and in-app purchase processing, transaction information, and restoration support.
Cloudinary: hosting and delivery of optional uploaded profile images.
LiveKit: connection and audio information needed for optional voice sessions.
OpenAI: where AI players are enabled, relevant gameplay and chat context used for AI decisions and responses, and generated text used for synthetic speech. Avoid sharing personal or sensitive information in AI interactions.
Email and notification providers: delivery of account verification, security/service messages, and notifications; email delivery may use Resend, and push delivery uses the services applicable to the game and device.
Google AdMob: information processed to deliver, secure, and measure advertising in the game.
Other participants: the profile, gameplay, or voice information made available through the features you use.
We may also disclose information to professional advisers, competent authorities, or other parties where lawfully necessary to address a legal obligation, protect rights or safety, investigate abuse, or resolve a dispute. Information may be transferred as part of a business restructuring or acquisition, subject to applicable law and appropriate protection.
Third-party services, app stores, and external websites have their own privacy notices for processing they control. Optional features may be unavailable when the necessary provider is not configured.
5. Advertising, permissions, and notifications
Whotnite uses Google AdMob and requests child-directed and under-age-of-consent treatment for advertising. These settings are intended to restrict interest-based advertising; they do not eliminate the technical processing needed to deliver and secure ads. Device permissions and advertising settings can affect the information available to advertising services.
You can manage microphone, photo access, and notification permissions in your device settings. You can also change the email and push preferences offered in the game. Turning off an optional permission may prevent that feature from working. Necessary account-security or service communications may still be sent where there is a lawful basis.
6. Children and parental requests
Whotnite is intended for players aged four and above with parental permission and supervision for children. Parents should consider the information involved in online accounts, visible profiles, advertising, purchases, and voice interactions before permitting a child's use.
Where we rely on consent to process a child's personal information, the consent must come from a parent or legal guardian as required by applicable law. Appropriate verification of age and parental consent is also required where applicable. This Policy and a parent's general permission do not themselves constitute verified consent. Contact support@whotnite.com before allowing a child's use to arrange any necessary consent or discuss the child's account.
A parent or guardian may contact us to ask about a child's information, seek access or correction, withdraw consent, or request deletion, subject to applicable law. We may need reasonable information to verify the requester's identity and authority. Please do not send identity documents unless we request them through an appropriate secure process. If you believe a child has provided information without the required permission, contact us promptly so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
7. International processing
Service providers may process information in Nigeria or other countries. Transfers outside Nigeria must meet applicable data-protection requirements. Where required, we must use an appropriate transfer basis and safeguards, considering the protection available in the destination and the parties handling the information. Contact support for information about the processing relevant to your account.
8. Retention and deletion
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for its purpose. Relevant factors include whether an account remains active, what is needed to operate play or support a purchase, legal recordkeeping duties, security and abuse investigations, disputes, and the management of backups. Retention must be limited to a lawful purpose; different categories may have different retention needs.
Email support@whotnite.com to request account or data deletion. We will assess and respond in accordance with applicable law and may need to verify your identity. Account deactivation does not itself delete stored information. Limited records may need to be retained for lawful legal, security, purchase-support, or dispute purposes. Information another participant independently retained is not necessarily removed by deleting your account.
9. Your rights and complaints
Subject to applicable law and any relevant conditions or exceptions, you may request information about our processing and access to your personal data; correction of inaccurate information; deletion; restriction of or objection to processing; and data portability where applicable. You may also withdraw consent where processing relies on it and raise concerns about decisions based solely on automated processing where the law provides protection.
Send requests to support@whotnite.com. Explain the request and identify your Whotnite account without sending your password. We may seek reasonable verification before disclosing or changing personal data. A parent or guardian may make an appropriate request for a child. These rights do not depend on accepting a change to this Policy.
You may complain to the Nigeria Data Protection Commission, including through the contact and complaint information on its official website. You may also approach another competent authority where applicable. Contacting us first does not remove that right.
10. Security
We use access controls, authentication, and other technical and organisational measures intended to protect information. No online service or device can guarantee absolute security. Keep your device and account credentials secure and tell us promptly about suspected unauthorised access or a privacy concern.
11. Changes and contact
We may update this Policy as the Service or legal requirements change. The revised Policy will display its effective date. We will provide appropriate notice of material changes and obtain consent where required.
For privacy enquiries, complaints, parental requests, or deletion requests, contact support@whotnite.com, or write to BATAR TECHNOLOGIES LTD at the address above.
