3.3 Google User Messaging Platform (UMP)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or another region that requires consent for personalized advertising, the App uses Google's User Messaging Platform to collect and manage your consent before any personalized advertising data is requested.

6. DATA SECURITY

We take reasonable measures to protect the information associated with the App. Game progress and user preferences are stored locally on your device using Android's standard data storage mechanisms. We do not operate external servers or databases that store your personal data.

However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information, particularly data collected by third-party services.
