Zefville Mogul
Privacy policy
Last updated: 4 October 2026
This page explains what information Zefville Mogul ("the game", at zefville.com) collects when you play, what it is used for, and what you can do about it. We have tried to keep it short and plain.
Who runs the game
Zefville Mogul is made and run by an independent developer based in South Africa. For anything about your information, email dashblasttv@gmail.com.
What we collect
- Your sign-in. You sign in with a Google account or with an email address and password. Sign-in is handled by Google's Firebase Authentication. We receive your email address and, with Google sign-in, the name on your Google account. If you use a password, it is stored by Firebase in protected form; we never see it.
- Your Zefville name and look. The game name you choose, and the drawn avatar and colours you pick. We do not use or show your Google profile photo.
- Your game progress. Your level, the Zoins you have earned, your net worth in the game, your businesses, properties and goals, the Skema (crew) you belong to and when you last played. A copy of your empire is saved under your account so that it follows you to another device.
- Skema chat. Messages you send in your Skema's chat, and the likes on them.
- Invites. If you join with someone's invite code, we record which code you used and your game name, so that the person who invited you gets their reward.
The game also keeps a save and a few settings in your browser's own storage on your device, and keeps a copy of the game's files there so that it can open without data.
We do not collect your location, your contacts, your photos or any payment details.
Who can see what
- Other signed-in players can see your Zefville name, avatar, rank and earned Zoins on the leaderboard and in Skema member lists.
- Members of your Skema can see the messages you send in that Skema's chat. Nobody outside the Skema can read them in the game.
- Only you can read the saved copy of your empire.
- Your email address is never shown to other players.
- The developer can access the game's database in order to run, fix and moderate the game.
What we use it for
To let you sign in, to keep your empire and bring it back on another device, to run the leaderboard, Skemas, chat and invite rewards, and to keep the game fair and friendly. Names and chat are filtered for offensive words. We do not sell your information.
Services we rely on
- Google Firebase (sign-in, database and hosting). Your information is stored on Google's servers, which may be outside South Africa.
- Google Fonts. The game's fonts are loaded from Google, which means your browser contacts Google when the page loads.
- Google AdSense. The site may show adverts through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to show adverts based on your earlier visits to this and other websites. You can switch off personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, and read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Younger players
Zefville Mogul is meant for players aged 13 and older. If you are under 18, please ask a parent or guardian before you sign up. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has signed up, email us and we will delete the account.
Zoins are not money
Zoins are play money. They only exist inside the game and can never be cashed out or exchanged for real money.
How long we keep it, and deleting it
We keep your information for as long as you have an account. You can ask us at any time to see it, correct it or delete it: email dashblasttv@gmail.com from the address you sign in with. We delete your account and its game data within 30 days of your request. You can remove the save on your own device by clearing this site's data in your browser.
Keeping it safe
Access to the game's database is restricted by security rules, so players can only change their own entries and only you can read your saved empire. No online service can promise perfect security, but we take reasonable care.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you have rights over your personal information, including the right to access, correct and delete it and to object to how it is used. In South Africa these come from the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA), and you may also complain to the Information Regulator.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
