Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 October 2026
This is the privacy policy of THE EXPONENTIAL COLLECTIVE, a private company registered in South Africa (registration number 2024/293185/07). In this policy, “we”, “us” and “our” mean The Exponential Collective. We are the “responsible party” under the Protection of Personal Information Act 4 of 2013 (POPIA).
In short: this website does not use cookies, analytics or advertising trackers, and has no forms. We only receive your personal information if you choose to email us. Each of our apps and games has its own privacy policy that explains what that app does with your information.
1. How this policy fits with our app policies
There are two layers of privacy policy:
- This policy covers our company website and what we do when you contact us.
- Each app’s own privacy policy covers that app or game: what it collects, why, where it is stored and how you can delete it. If you use one of our apps, that app’s policy is the one that applies to it.
If this policy and an app’s policy ever say different things about that app, the app’s policy applies to the app.
2. Our apps and their privacy policies
Every app we publish has its own privacy policy, linked from its page on this site and from its store listing. Until an app is released, we do not collect personal information through it from the public.
3. What we collect on this website
- No cookies, analytics or ad trackers. We do not use cookies, analytics tools, advertising trackers, social media pixels or third-party fonts on this website.
- Server logs. Our website is hosted by Google (Firebase Hosting). Like most web hosts, it may automatically record technical information such as your IP address, the pages requested, the date and time, and your browser type, to deliver the site and keep it secure. We do not use this to identify you.
- Messages you send us. This website has no contact form and does not collect anything you type. If you email us at info@exponentialcollective.co.za, we receive your email address, your name if you include it, and whatever you write.
4. How we use your information
We use messages you send us only to read them, reply, provide support and keep a reasonable record of the conversation. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for marketing unless you have asked us to.
5. Who we share it with
We do not share your personal information with anyone except the services needed to run the website and handle email, and where the law requires it:
- Google hosts this website (Firebase Hosting).
- Our email provider, and your own, handle messages sent to and from info@exponentialcollective.co.za.
These providers may process information on servers outside South Africa. We choose providers that protect personal information.
6. How long we keep it
We keep emails only for as long as we need them to reply to you, provide support and keep proper business records. You can ask us to delete them at any time (see section 7).
7. Your rights
Under POPIA you may ask us to:
- tell you whether we hold personal information about you, and give you a copy;
- correct or delete personal information that is wrong, out of date or no longer needed;
- stop using your personal information, or withdraw consent you gave us.
Email us at the address below and we will respond within a reasonable time. If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you may complain to the Information Regulator (South Africa) at inforegulator.org.za.
8. Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold. This website is served over an encrypted connection (HTTPS). No system is completely secure, so please do not send sensitive information such as passwords, ID numbers or banking details by email.
9. Children
This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from them through it. Some of our apps are for adults only, and their own policies say so.
10. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will post the new version here and update the date at the top. If we add a new app, we will link its privacy policy in section 2.
