# Punching Planet — Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 October 2026
Punching Planet is published by VadaiAnna. This policy explains how information is handled when you play the Android or iOS game or contact us.
Privacy and support contact: vadaianna5@gmail.com
## Game progress and accounts
You do not need to create an account or sign in to Punching Planet. The game stores progress, settings, Stardust balance, upgrades and purchase-entitlement records on your device. We do not operate a game-account server or a cloud-save service.
The game does not request access to GPS or precise location, contacts, photos, microphone or camera. It does not track your movements.
## Advertising
Punching Planet integrates Google AdMob to display ads, including optional rewarded ads. Internal test versions use test ads.
Google's advertising service receives technical information when the game connects to it. This may include your IP address, information about app and ad interactions, diagnostic and performance information, and app or device identifiers permitted by the service's configuration. An IP address may be used to estimate a general location, such as a city or region; this does not require GPS access.
Google uses and shares advertising-service information to deliver and measure ads, analyze performance, and prevent fraud and abuse. See Google's [Android Mobile Ads data disclosure](https://developers.google.com/admob/android/privacy/play-data-disclosure), [iOS Mobile Ads data disclosure](https://developers.google.com/admob/ios/privacy/data-disclosure) and [Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy).
The game is intended for ages 9 and older, including children. We configure AdMob requests for child-directed treatment, under-age-of-consent treatment and a maximum ad content rating of G for all players. Android advertising-ID access is disabled in the app's manifest. On iOS, child-directed ad treatment is configured before the advertising SDK initializes; Google states that this treatment prevents transmission of the advertising identifier (IDFA). The game does not ask for App Tracking Transparency permission. These protections do not mean that the advertising service collects no information.
Purchasing Remove Ads disables automatic interstitial ads. Optional rewarded ads remain available. Remove Ads does not promise to stop all SDK communications or data processing.
## In-app purchases
Google Play on Android and Apple on iOS process optional purchases, including Remove Ads and Stardust packs. We do not receive your credit-card number or other payment credentials entered into these stores.
The game receives purchase information such as product identifiers, purchase status and purchase tokens on Android. It uses this information to grant purchased items, confirm Android transactions with Google Play, prevent duplicate rewards and restore eligible purchases. Local purchase records include hashed purchase tokens and product identifiers.
On iOS, the game uses Apple StoreKit to obtain product prices, verify transactions, grant purchases and restore eligible ownership. It stores product identifiers and hashed transaction identifiers locally to prevent duplicate grants. We do not operate a purchase-validation server or receive your Apple Account password. Restore Purchases may ask you to authenticate with Apple.
Google and Apple handle payment and transaction records under their own terms and privacy policies: [Google](https://policies.google.com/privacy) and [Apple](https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/).
## Contacting us
If you email vadaianna5@gmail.com, we receive your email address and the information you choose to send. We use this information to respond to your request. Please do not send passwords, payment-card details or unnecessary personal information. Parents or guardians may contact us about a child's privacy.
## Retention and deletion
Local game data remains on your device until it is overwritten or removed. You can remove the game's local data through Android's app-storage settings or by deleting the app on iOS. Offloading an iOS app retains its documents and data. Device backups may retain copies according to your device and backup settings. Clearing data can permanently remove progress and your local Stardust balance. Eligible non-consumable purchases can be restored through the original store account using Restore Purchases; consumed Stardust packs are not a cloud backup of your balance.
Removing local game data does not delete records held by Google or Apple. Those providers determine retention of information it processes under its policies and applicable requirements. We do not promise automatic deletion of that information within 90 days. Information about Google's retention practices is available at [How Google retains data](https://policies.google.com/technologies/retention).
For questions about information you have sent directly to VadaiAnna, including requests to delete support correspondence, contact vadaianna5@gmail.com. We will explain what information we hold and any applicable retention requirements. We cannot directly delete records controlled by Google or Apple.
## Security and third-party services
Google states that data collected by its Mobile Ads SDK is encrypted in transit using TLS. Local game files rely on your device's storage protections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
The game uses Google AdMob for advertising, Google Play for Android purchases, and Apple StoreKit for iOS purchases. Opening their links or an advertiser's page may take you to a service governed by its own privacy policy.
## Changes and questions
We may update this policy when the game's features or data practices change. The latest policy will show an updated date. For privacy questions, contact VadaiAnna at vadaianna5@gmail.com.
