This Privacy Policy explains how byED Games (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use Referee Simulator 2026 (the “App”).

1) Who We Are

Developer: Efecan Demir (byED Games)
Contact: byedgames@gmail.com

2) Information We Collect

A) Information you provide directly

• Support emails: If you contact us, we may receive and process your email address and the content of your message to respond and provide support.
  
  

B) Information collected automatically (via advertising)

The App displays ads using third-party advertising services. These services may automatically collect information to deliver, measure, and improve ads, including:

• Device information (model, OS version, language)
  
  

• App information (app version, ad interactions, basic usage signals related to ads)
  
  

• Approximate location (derived from IP address, typically at country/region level)
  
  

• Identifiers for advertising and fraud prevention (such as Android Advertising ID or similar device identifiers; on iOS, identifiers may be used depending on your settings and permissions)
  
  

• Diagnostics (crash reports, performance data related to the ad SDK)
  
  

3) Advertising (AdMob)

We use advertising services provided by Google (such as AdMob) to show ads in the App.

Personalized vs. non-personalized ads

• Depending on your region and choices, ads may be personalized (based on advertising identifiers and interests) or non-personalized (contextual).
  
  

• Where required by law (e.g., in the EEA/UK/Switzerland), we may request consent before showing personalized ads.
  
  

iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT)

• On iOS, if the App requests permission under Apple’s App Tracking Transparency framework, your choice will affect whether personalized ads can be shown using certain identifiers.

• If you allow tracking, we and our advertising partners may use your device identifier to show more relevant ads and measure ad performance. If you deny permission, ads will still be shown but may be less relevant.

4) How We Use Information

We use information for:

• Providing and maintaining the App
  
  

• Displaying and measuring ads
  
  

• Preventing fraud and abuse (including ad fraud)
  
  

• Debugging, crash analysis, and improving stability
  
  

• Responding to support requests
  
  

5) How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary sense. We may share information:

• With advertising partners (to serve and measure ads, prevent fraud)
  
  

• With service providers that help us operate the App (e.g., support email processing)
  
  

• If required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security
  
  

6) Data Storage & Retention

• Gameplay progress is generally stored locally on your device unless we explicitly add online features in the future.
  
  

• Ad-related data collected by third parties is retained according to their own retention policies.
  
  

• Support emails are kept only as long as necessary to handle your request and for reasonable record-keeping.
  
  

7) Your Choices & Controls

Depending on your device and region, you may be able to:

• Reset or limit advertising identifiers (Android Advertising ID / iOS settings)
  
  

• Opt out of ad personalization in your device settings (availability varies by OS version/region)
  
  

• Manage consent choices in the App where available
  
  

8) Children’s Privacy

The App is not intended for children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us at byedgames@gmail.com and we will take appropriate steps.

9) International Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own (for example, where advertising providers operate). Where required, we rely on legal mechanisms for international transfers.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version on our website and update the “Last Updated” date.
