Privacy Policy
What stays on your device
The game stores the following in your device's local storage. We do not upload it to a server of our own:
- Your progress: the next level, the highest level reached, and your coins.
- Your guns: which ones you own, their upgrade levels, and which one is equipped.
- Your sound setting, and whether you have cleared the first level.
- What you have bought (for example Remove Ads), so it is not granted twice.
There is no cloud save and no way for us to see any of it. Deleting the game deletes it.
What leaves your device
Usage statistics: Google Analytics for Firebase
To see where the game is too hard, too easy or confusing, the app sends short records of play to Google Analytics for Firebase:
- When the app is opened.
- Levels started, cleared or failed: the level, the squad size, how far you got, what ended the run, the play time and the coins earned.
- Boss fights started and won, the first few gates of a level (the gate and the squad size before and after), and a summary of the gates at the end of a level.
- Guns picked up or upgraded, opening the Armory, purchases (the product and its price), ads shown (where in the game, and whether a reward was earned), revives, and finishing the first level.
With them, Firebase records an ID it creates for this installation of the app (not your name, account or device serial), the device model and operating system, the app version, language and country. We never send your name or any advertising identifier: the app is set up so that Firebase does not read the IDFA or the Android Advertising ID, and these statistics are not used for advertising or ad personalisation. Google processes them on our behalf: firebase.google.com/support/privacy.
Advertising: Google AdMob
The free game shows a banner on the menu, Armory and result screens (never while you play), an occasional full-screen ad between levels, and optional rewarded video ads you can choose to watch (to revive your squad, double your coins or get a free upgrade). These are served by Google AdMob, which collects:
- Your device's advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Advertising ID on Android), when you allow it.
- Device and app information: model, operating system version, app version, coarse region and language.
- Whether an ad was shown, viewed, or tapped.
- Diagnostic information about the ad software, such as crash and performance data.
Google uses this to select ads, to measure them, and to detect fraud. Google's own policy governs what it does with the data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, the game asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown.
On iOS, the app asks for permission before any of this is used to track you across other companies' apps. Declining is fine: you still get ads, they are just less targeted. You can change the answer later in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
On Android, you can reset or delete your Advertising ID in Settings → Privacy → Ads.
Buying "Remove Ads" or the Starter Pack stops the banner and the full-screen ads. Rewarded ads stay available, and are only requested when you choose to watch one.
Purchases: RevenueCat, Apple, and Google
If you buy something, the payment is handled by Apple's App Store or Google Play. We never see your card details, name, or billing address.
To confirm a purchase is genuine and to restore it on a new device, the app uses RevenueCat, which receives an anonymous app-specific user ID, the store receipt, and the product you bought. RevenueCat's policy: revenuecat.com/privacy
Children
The game contains cartoon combat with zombies and monsters. It is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Ads are limited to content rated for teens. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the ad networks, contact us and we will help you raise it with Google.
Your rights
Because there is no account, we hold nothing that identifies you to look up, export, or delete. To remove everything associated with the app:
- Delete your local data: uninstall the app.
- Usage statistics: uninstalling the app resets the installation ID, so later play cannot be linked to earlier records.
- Reset advertising data: reset your advertising identifier in your device settings, as described above.
- Opt out of personalised ads: decline the tracking prompt on iOS, or turn off ad personalisation in your Android settings.
- Requests about data held by Google (AdMob, Firebase) or RevenueCat: go to them directly, at the policy links above. We can point you to the right form.
If you are in the EU or UK, the legal basis for personalised advertising is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time through the settings above; the legal basis for processing a purchase is performance of our contract with you.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, the "last updated" date changes and the new version is posted at the same address.
