Perfect — thank you. With these details, your Privacy Policy must be very clear and Google Play compliant, because:
You use Firebase Analytics
You use Firebase Authentication
You use Crashlytics
You collect Location
Your audience is minors (13–17)
That means Google will review this carefully under the User Data Policy and Children & Families Policy.
Below is a production-ready Privacy Policy for OctoStars, written exactly in the format Google expects.
Effective Date: February 4, 2026
