Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 22 June 2026
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how AstroBiz ("we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, and protects information in connection with the mobile game AstroBiz (the "App"). By downloading and using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
Information We Collect
Anonymous Authentication
AstroBiz uses Firebase Anonymous Authentication provided by Google. When you first launch the App, an anonymous account is automatically created for you. This process does not require or collect:
- Email addresses
- Passwords
- Names
- Phone numbers
- Any other personally identifiable information (PII)
A unique, anonymous identifier is generated and stored locally on your device and in our cloud database to enable progress syncing across sessions and devices.
Game Progress Data
Your game progress, including but not limited to factory levels, ship inventory, sector discoveries, currency balances, and research progress, is stored in Google Cloud Firestore. This data is linked to your anonymous account identifier and contains no personal information.
Device Information
If Firebase Analytics is enabled, Google may collect default device-level analytics data, which may include:
- Device type and model
- Operating system version
- App version
- General location (country/region level, not precise)
- App usage patterns and crash reports
This data is aggregated and used solely for improving App performance and stability. We do not access or analyze individual user-level analytics.
How We Use Information
We use the information collected to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the App
- Sync your game progress across devices
- Analyze aggregate usage trends to optimize gameplay experiences
- Diagnose and fix technical issues
In-App Purchases
AstroBiz offers optional In-App Purchases (IAP) via Google Play Billing. All payment processing, transaction history, and receipt verification are handled by Google Play. We do not collect, store, or process payment card information, billing addresses, or other financial data. We only verify your purchase entitlements through Google's secure server-to-server validation.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not sell, rent, or share user data with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.
Data may be processed by the following service providers solely for the purpose of operating the App:
- Google Firebase (Authentication, Firestore, Analytics) — https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Google Play (In-App Purchase processing) — https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/6285986
These providers are bound by their own privacy policies and data protection obligations.
Advertising and Tracking
AstroBiz does not contain any advertising SDKs. We do not display ads, track users for ad personalization, or share data with advertising networks.
Data Retention and Deletion
Your game data is retained for as long as your anonymous account remains active. If you uninstall the App and do not access it for an extended period, your anonymous account and associated data may be automatically deleted in accordance with Firebase's data retention policies.
If you wish to delete your game data immediately, please contact us at the email address below with your anonymous user ID (available in the App's settings menu). We will process deletion requests within 30 days.
Children's Privacy
AstroBiz is not targeted at children under the age of 13. The App is designed for a general audience of teens and adults. We do not knowingly collect PII from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately and we will delete the information promptly.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including:
- Encryption of data in transit (HTTPS/TLS)
- Encryption of data at rest in Firebase services
- Restricted access to cloud databases
However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
International Transfers
Your data may be stored and processed on servers located outside your country of residence, including in the United States. By using the App, you consent to this transfer.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted in the App and updated on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
