1. Introduction to Privacy Practices
At Clarinet By Gray, operated by Gray Resonance Entertainment Ltd (NZBN 9429041234567), we take the privacy of our players seriously. This comprehensive Privacy and Cookies Policy explains how we collect, process, and protect your data when you interact with our free-to-play social casino environment. We are committed to transparency and to ensuring that your experience within the Silverwood Conservatory remains secure, compliant, and enjoyable. By using our platform, you acknowledge the practices described within this document.
2. Detailed Data Collection Breakdown
To provide our simulated gaming services, we collect several types of information:
- Account Information: When you register as a Maestro, we collect your chosen username, email address, and encrypted password. This is essential for maintaining your Resonance Keys (RSK) balance, rank progression, and Harmonic Combo meter across sessions.
- Gameplay Data: We monitor session durations, game choices (e.g., Woodwind Reels vs. Maestro's Wheel), and virtual betting patterns. This helps us refine the RTP volatility and improve the acoustic features of the platform.
- Device and Technical Data: Information such as IP address, browser type, operating system, and device identifiers are collected to ensure platform compatibility, prevent fraudulent multiple account creations, and maintain security operations.
- Communication Data: If you contact our Concierge service, we retain the correspondence to assist with your inquiries.
3. Extensive Cookies and Tracking Explanation

- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Required for the basic functioning of the website, including secure authentication and managing your virtual Resonance Keys session. These cannot be disabled.
- Performance Cookies: These help us understand how players interact with the Conservatory Floor, allowing us to optimize load times for our symphonic assets and game logic.
- Functional Cookies: Used to remember your preferences, such as audio toggles or rank display settings.

4. Third-Party Service Integrations Details
Clarinet By Gray may integrate with specific third-party service providers solely to maintain the platform's infrastructure. These may include secure hosting providers, email delivery services for account verification, and analytics platforms to monitor server health. We strictly prohibit any third-party service from utilizing your data for their independent commercial purposes. All third-party providers are vetted for compliance with international data protection standards.
5. User Rights Regarding Personal Data
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have specific rights concerning your personal data. These generally include:
- The right to access the data we hold about you.

6. Data Retention Periods
We retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including meeting legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Generally, player account data is kept for the duration of the account's active lifespan. If an account remains inactive for 24 consecutive months, we will initiate an anonymization process, permanently severing personal identifiers from gameplay statistics.
7. Security Measures
Our Security Operations Center employs robust technical and organizational measures to safeguard your information. This includes encryption of data in transit via TLS, secure password hashing, and regular vulnerability assessments of our gaming servers. While no internet transmission is entirely faultless, our commitment to security ensures that your purely simulated experience remains uncompromised.
