The Game is developed and published by Orest Kucher (“we”, “us”, or “our”).
By using the Game, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
We do not directly ask you to provide personal information such as your name, address, phone number, or password in order to play the Game.
However, the Game uses third-party services that may automatically collect certain information about your device and your interaction with the Game.
This information may include:

Google states that its Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect information including IP address, user interactions, diagnostic information, Android advertising ID, App Set ID, and other applicable device identifiers for purposes such as advertising, analytics, and fraud prevention.
The Game uses Google Analytics for Firebase, a service provided by Google, to help us understand how players use the Game.

Google Analytics for Firebase automatically collects certain events and user properties and allows developers to record custom gameplay events.

The Game uses Google AdMob to display advertisements.
Advertisements may include formats such as:
Banner advertisements.
Interstitial advertisements.
Rewarded video advertisements.
When you interact with advertisements, Google and its advertising partners may collect and process information about your device and advertising activity.

This information may be used for purposes including:
Displaying advertisements.
Measuring advertising performance.
Limiting repeated advertisements.
Preventing fraud and abuse.
Providing personalized or non-personalized advertisements where permitted.
The Google Mobile Ads SDK automatically collects certain information for advertising, analytics, and fraud-prevention purposes. Google states that such information is encrypted in transit.
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may be asked to provide consent before personalized advertising or certain data processing takes place.
Depending on your region and your privacy choices, advertisements displayed in the Game may be personalized or non-personalized.
Personalized advertising may use information such as advertising identifiers, approximate location, previous advertising interactions, or other signals to select advertisements that may be more relevant to you.
Where required by applicable law, we or our advertising partners will request consent before using information for personalized advertising.
You may also be able to control advertising personalization through your device settings and your Google account privacy settings.
