You can turn notifications off at any time in the game's Settings or in your iPhone's Settings. Technical information - When the app talks to our servers, our hosting provider automatically records technical information such as your IP address, device and app type, and the date and time of the request. - To protect players from bugs and cheating, we keep a short-term record of changes to each farm's coin balance, including the time and app type.
