The application is available in the Apple App Store, Android Google Play Store, Amazon App Store, Apple Mac Store and Steam Store.

What Kind of Information is Collected?
There are two types of data that websites and apps can collect about their users. The first one is called personal data. This is personally identifiable information that identifies a user as an individual. The Sandbox collects a username and password when it is necessary to register in order to make use of a service such as leaving comments or joining a discussion. If you contact us for help we will only use your email address to reply to your question and we will delete as soon as we have responded.
The second type is non personal data which doesn’t directly identify an individual. The Sandbox may collect non personal information about the use of the website and apps to help us improve our services.
More about Non Personal Data
To help us provide you with the best service and to better understand your use of The Sandbox game we work with some third party providers. These third parties are prohibited from sharing your data. For more information on these third parties please see their privacy policies.
These companies help us to understand your use of the site and apps. In association with the third parties we may collect your unique device identifier, IP address, mobile phone carrier, game progress, time spent playing and achievements. This information is for internal use only and can’t be shared. It’s just for us to help us improve our services for you.
