4. Authentication
The App uses Firebase Authentication and may support sign-in through email and password, Google Sign-In, and Apple Sign In. Authentication providers may process certain information according to their own privacy policies.

5. Payments and Subscriptions
Subscriptions are linked to a specific user account. Transferring subscriptions between accounts is only supported through official in-app processes and may require identity verification.

We do not directly collect or store your full credit card number, banking information, or payment credentials. Payment processing is handled by the applicable third-party payment provider.
6. Data Storage and Security
We use Firebase services, including Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore, Firebase Storage, Cloud Functions, and Firebase Cloud Messaging, to store and operate App data.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no online service can guarantee absolute security.

The App allows users to create poker tables, reserve seats, join waiting lists, send chat messages, manage friends, and record game statistics. This information may be visible to other users depending on the feature, your role, and your relationship with those users.
