Pocket Civilization Privacy Policy

Effective Date: April 05, 2026

Pocket Civilization respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information the app may access, how it is used, and the choices available to you.

1. Information the app may access

Depending on the features you enable, Pocket Civilization may access:

• step and fitness data

• approximate or precise location

• usage-pattern information such as screen-time trends

• notification permissions

• account-related identifiers if cloud save or online features are enabled

2. How information is used

This information is used to power gameplay features, including:

• converting steps into in-game resources

• estimating biome or nature bonuses from location context

• adjusting morale or productivity systems based on routine patterns

• sending citizen messages, reminders, and game notifications

• syncing game progress across devices if cloud features are enabled

3. Optional permissions

Many game features are optional. You can choose not to grant certain permissions. If a permission is denied, some features may be limited, but the app should still remain playable in fallback mode.

4. Data sharing

Pocket Civilization does not sell your personal information. Data may be processed by service providers used to operate the game, such as backend hosting, analytics, crash reporting, cloud save, or billing providers.

5. Data storage

Some information may be stored locally on your device, and some may be stored in cloud services if you enable online account or sync features.

6. Data retention

Data is retained only as long as needed to provide app features, maintain account functionality, improve performance, or meet legal obligations.

7. Your choices

You may be able to:

• disable notifications

• disable health, location, or routine-based features

• revoke permissions in device settings

• request deletion of associated account data if account features are enabled

8. Children’s privacy

Pocket Civilization is not intended to knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. If you believe data was provided improperly, contact the publisher for removal.

9. Security

Reasonable safeguards are used to protect stored and transmitted information, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.

10. Changes to this policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. Updated versions will be posted with a new effective date.
