World Challenge: Geography is an educational geography game designed to help users learn and test their knowledge of countries, capitals, flags, and maps through stages, quizzes, achievements, progress tracking, and statistics.

Some preferences may be stored locally on your device and may not be transmitted to our servers.

User-agent information.

You may stop using the App or request deletion of your account and associated data at any time.
The App uses trusted Google services, including:
Google Sign-In allows you to access the App using your Google account. Your use of Google Sign-In is also governed by Google’s applicable terms and privacy practices.
Firebase Authentication is used to securely identify users and manage account access.
Cloud Firestore is used to store supported account information, game progress, statistics, achievements, and application content.
These services may process information on Google-operated infrastructure in accordance with Google’s privacy and security terms. Firebase Authentication may process information such as email addresses, user-agent strings, and IP addresses for authentication, security, and abuse prevention.
The current version of World Challenge: Geography does not display third-party advertising and does not use personal information for targeted advertising.
If advertising services are introduced in a future version, this Privacy Policy and the Google Play Data safety disclosures will be updated before or when those services become active.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
Information may be processed or shared only in the following limited circumstances:
With Google service providers used to operate authentication and cloud storage.
When required by law, regulation, court order, or a valid governmental request.
When necessary to investigate fraud, security incidents, abuse, or threats to users.
During a business transfer, such as a merger or acquisition, subject to appropriate privacy safeguards.
We do not share your game progress publicly with other users unless a future feature clearly asks for your permission.
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
Information transmitted between the App and Firebase services is sent using secure network protocols. Access to cloud-stored information is restricted using authentication and Firestore security rules.
However, no electronic storage or transmission method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We retain account information and cloud-synchronized game progress while your account remains active or for as long as needed to provide the App’s services.
When you request account deletion, we will delete or initiate deletion of the account information and associated game data under our control, except when limited retention is required for:
Legal obligations.
Fraud or security investigations.
Resolving disputes.
Enforcing applicable agreements.
Technical backup cycles.
Firebase may retain some information temporarily in backup systems after deletion. Google states that certain Firebase Authentication information is removed from live and backup systems within its applicable deletion cycle.
Information stored only on your device may remain until you clear the App’s data or uninstall the App.

Account deletion is permanent and may remove:
Your account profile.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information without proper authorization, contact us at mzuory@gmail.com, and we will review and delete the information where appropriate.

The App does not request access to:
Precise GPS location.

The App may use device vibration to provide gameplay feedback. Vibration access does not provide us with personal information.

Google and Firebase may process information using infrastructure located outside your country of residence.
Where applicable, such processing is subject to Google’s contractual, privacy, and security safeguards.
The App or its website may contain links to third-party websites or services.
