Age Verification

When a user first opens the Game, we display an age verification screen before any data collection takes place. This determines what data practices apply to the user.

For users identified as under the applicable age threshold:

We do not collect personal information that can individually identify the child.
We do not enable analytics event tracking or create user profile documents in our databases.
We do not display personalized or behaviorally targeted advertisements. Only contextual ads are shown.
We do not enable cross-app tracking or advertising profiling.
We do not collect precise geolocation data.
Ads are flagged as child-directed to ensure our advertising partners apply appropriate restrictions.
Crash reporting (Firebase Crashlytics) remains active to maintain app stability but does not collect personal identifiers.

Users Aged 13+ (or 16+ in EEA/UK)

Users at or above the applicable age threshold may be presented with a consent form for personalized advertising and analytics. Full data collection, as described in this policy, is enabled only with appropriate consent.
