Effective Date: [January 06, 2026]
Welcome to Tree World (hereinafter referred to as "this App"). We deeply understand the importance of privacy to you and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy aims to clearly and transparently explain how we, as the service provider of this App, collect, use, store, and share your information, as well as the rights you are entitled to.
This App is an entertaining game software that combines tree-planting cultivation and answer-based challenges. Users can earn virtual gold coins by cultivating trees and participating in answer challenges to unlock more game content. By using this App, you confirm that you have reached the age required by applicable laws (usually 13 or 16 years old, depending on your place of residence) and agree to the data processing practices described in this Policy.
1. Information We Collect
To provide and optimize our services, we may collect the following types of information:
- Device Information: When you use this App, we automatically collect specific information related to your mobile device, such as device model, operating system version (e.g., iOS version, Android version), unique device identifiers (e.g., IDFA for advertising purposes or IDFV for vendor identification), network information, and performance data.
- Usage Data: We collect detailed information about your interaction with this App, including but not limited to your game history (e.g., tree species cultivated, cultivation progress, answer records and results), virtual gold coin acquisition (tree harvests, answer rewards) and consumption records (unlocking saplings, purchasing in-game items, etc.), accessed function pages, session duration, and in-app events (e.g., task completion, reward collection, sapling maturation and harvest).
- Information You Voluntarily Provide: In certain cases, you may choose to provide us with information, such as when you set an in-game nickname (real-name registration is not required), participate in online events held within the App, or provide contact information when reaching out to us through in-app channels.
We will not intentionally collect or request any highly sensitive personal information, such as your government-issued ID number, biometric data, financial account information, or precise geolocation (unless you explicitly authorize it and such authorization is necessary for specific functions).
2. How We Use Your Information
The information we collect is used for the following legitimate purposes:
- Service Provision and Operation: The core purpose is to provide, maintain, and optimize the game experience of tree-planting cultivation and answer-based challenges, including processing the issuance of virtual gold coins, tracking tree-planting progress,统计ing answer records, and managing game accounts.
- App Improvement and Analysis: We analyze usage trends and performance data, such as user-preferred tree species, distribution of answer difficulty levels, and frequently used function modules, to diagnose technical issues, fix bugs, improve App stability, and develop new game content (e.g., adding new sapling species, optimizing the answer question bank), thereby enhancing the overall user experience.
- Advertising and Monetization: We display relevant advertising content to you by integrating third-party advertising platforms licensed by relevant authorities (e.g., Google AdMob). This process may involve the use of device identifiers (e.g., IDFA, upon your consent via corresponding system settings) to support personalized advertising, measure advertising effectiveness, and prevent ad fraud.
- Security and Compliance: We monitor and prevent fraud, cheating, abuse (e.g., maliciously farming gold coins, modifying game data, etc.) or other illegal activities to protect the rights and interests of this App, our users, and third-party partners. When required by law, we use this information to fulfill our legal obligations.
3. Information Sharing and Disclosure
We will only share your information with third parties in the following limited circumstances and will never sell your personally identifiable information:
- Third-Party Service Providers: We share necessary information with contracted third-party partners to assist us in operating our business and providing services. This includes:
- Analytics Service Providers (e.g., Google Firebase Analytics, AppsFlyer): Used for anonymized or aggregated data analysis, such as statistics on overall game activity, distribution of answer accuracy rates, etc.
- Advertising Platforms (e.g., Google AdMob): Used for the delivery and measurement of in-app advertising (in compliance with their respective privacy policies and the tracking permission frameworks of corresponding systems).
- Cloud Service and Infrastructure Providers: Used for securely storing and processing your game data, such as tree-planting progress, answer records, virtual gold coin information, etc.
- Legal Obligations: We may disclose information when we believe it is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal procedures, or mandatory government requirements.
- Protection of Rights and Safety: We disclose information when necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of us, users, or the public from harm—for example, responding to behaviors that endanger App security, including game data tampering and malicious attacks.
4. Data Storage, Security and Retention
- Storage and Security: We adopt industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, modification, disclosure, or destruction. Data is stored on secure servers with access controls. However, please note that no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure.
- International Transfers: Due to our global operations, your information may be transmitted to servers outside your country or region for processing. We will ensure that such transfers are subject to appropriate protective measures (e.g., standard contractual clauses) to comply with applicable data protection laws.
- Retention Period: We will only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to achieve the purposes described in this Policy or as required by law. When the information is no longer needed (e.g., after you uninstall the App and there are no subsequent data association requirements), we will delete or anonymize this information in a secure manner.
5. Children's Privacy
This App is not designed for children. We will not intentionally collect personal information from children as defined by applicable laws (usually under 13 or 16 years old, depending on the jurisdiction). If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from children, we will immediately take measures to delete such information from our servers.
