1. Who controls the data

The data controller responsible for the Game is:

Daniil Shaposhnikov
Independent developer publishing under the name Ryx Interactive
Email: daniil.shaposhnikov.2000@gmail.com

2. Scope and audience

This Privacy Policy applies to the Android version of the Game distributed through Google Play. The Game is intended for a family audience aged 9 and older and may be used by children.

The Game does not require users to create an account, provide a name, submit an email address, or create a public profile. It does not contain in-app purchases.

3. Information you provide directly

The Game does not ask you to provide personal information during normal gameplay. In particular, it does not request:

If you contact the developer by email, the information you voluntarily include in your message—such as your email address, device details, screenshots, or support description—will be processed only to respond to the request, investigate a problem, protect the Game from abuse, or comply with legal obligations.

4. Appodeal advertising and automatically processed information

The Game uses the Appodeal software development kit (“SDK”) to display and measure advertisements. Appodeal is an advertising mediation service that can connect the Game to multiple advertising networks and demand partners.

Appodeal and enabled advertising partners may automatically process the following categories of information:

Category Examples Typical purpose
App activity Ad requests, impressions, clicks, rewarded-ad completion, and interaction timestamps Deliver ads, measure performance, and provide an in-game reward after a completed rewarded ad
Device and app information Device model, operating-system version, app version, package name, language, user agent, memory, and storage signals Compatibility, ad delivery, reporting, diagnostics, and fraud prevention
Network information Internet Protocol address, connection type, provider, and mobile country/network codes Approximate region, security, fraud prevention, and ad delivery
Identifiers Advertising or similar device identifiers when available and permitted by the device, SDK, privacy settings, and applicable law Advertising measurement, frequency controls, fraud prevention, and other permitted advertising operations
Diagnostics and performance Technical errors, latency, SDK status, and performance signals Reliability, debugging, service improvement, and advertising analytics
Approximate location Country or general region inferred from an Internet Protocol address or network information Regional compliance, localization, security, and contextual ad delivery

Appodeal documentation states that some additional data may be optional and depends on the developer’s integration and device permissions. For example, location data may be collected if an application grants location permission and location tracking is enabled. The Game is not designed to ask users to submit precise location information directly.

The developer does not provide Appodeal with a custom user ID, account name, email address, payment history, or purchase information for this Game.

5. How information is used

Information processed through Appodeal and its enabled advertising partners may be used to:

The developer does not use a separate analytics SDK to build individual gameplay profiles. Advertising measurement performed by Appodeal or its partners is still a form of data processing and is covered by this Policy.

6. Children’s privacy

Because the Game is intended for users aged 9 and older, it may be considered child-directed under the United States Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and may also be subject to child-specific privacy requirements in Europe and other regions.

The Appodeal integration is configured to request child-directed treatment, COPPA-compliant ad filtering, mature-content filtering, and non-personalized advertising. These settings are intended to restrict interest-based advertising and reduce the data used for ad personalization. Ad availability and fill rate may be lower as a result.

The Game does not knowingly ask children to submit personal information, create an account, communicate publicly, upload content, or make purchases. The developer does not knowingly use children’s personal information for behavioral advertising, remarketing, or profiling.

Parents and legal guardians may contact the developer to ask about information associated with their child, request deletion where applicable, or ask that further collection be stopped. Because the Game has no user accounts, identifying a specific advertising record may require limited technical information, such as the device platform, approximate date and time of use, or an advertising-provider identifier. The developer may need to forward the request to Appodeal or an enabled advertising partner.

7. Sharing and third-party service providers

Information may be processed or disclosed to:

These third parties may act as processors, service providers, or independent controllers depending on the service and jurisdiction. Their handling of information is governed by their own privacy terms and contractual obligations.

The developer does not sell personal information for money. The Game is configured for non-personalized advertising and is not intended to share children’s personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

9. United States and California privacy rights

Privacy rights differ by state and may apply only when statutory thresholds or other legal conditions are met. Where applicable, a United States resident may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or information about categories of personal information and third-party disclosures, and may have a right to opt out of certain sales, sharing, or targeted advertising.

The developer does not sell personal information for money and does not intentionally use the Game for cross-context behavioral advertising. The Game is configured to request non-personalized advertising and child-directed treatment.

California law places additional restrictions on selling or sharing the personal information of users known to be under 16. The developer does not knowingly sell or share children’s personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

Requests may be submitted using the contact email below. The developer will not discriminate against a user for exercising a privacy right. Reasonable verification may be required before responding to a request.

10. International transfers

Appodeal and enabled advertising partners may process information in countries other than the country where the user lives, including the United States. Data-protection laws in those countries may differ.

Where required by law, transfers are expected to rely on a recognized legal mechanism, such as an adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses, or another lawful safeguard used by the relevant service provider.

11. Data retention

The developer does not operate a user-account database for the Game. The developer may receive aggregated advertising and revenue reports, which are generally not designed to identify individual players.

Appodeal and enabled advertising partners retain information according to their own privacy policies, legal obligations, fraud-prevention needs, and technical requirements.

Support emails are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to answer the request, investigate a technical or safety issue, prevent abuse, maintain records of the response, or comply with law. They may then be deleted or anonymized.

12. Security

Reasonable technical and organizational measures are used to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. Third-party providers are expected to apply their own security measures.

No electronic transmission, mobile SDK, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Absolute security cannot be promised.

14. Changes to this Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated when the Game, its advertising configuration, enabled partners, legal requirements, or data practices change. The current version will show a revised “Last updated” date.

Material changes may also be communicated through the Game, its Google Play listing, or another reasonable method where required.

15. Contact and privacy requests

Questions, parental inquiries, privacy requests, and reports of inappropriate advertising may be sent to:
