Orb Blitz Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information is collected when you play Orb Blitz (the “App”) on Android, who collects it, and the choices you have. The App is developed by OneForty Software (“we”, “us”).
- We do not ask for, collect, or store your name, email, contacts, photos, or precise location.
- The App has no accounts. Your settings and best score stay on your device.
- The App shows ads from Google AdMob. Google collects some device and usage information to show and measure ads, as described below.
- We do not sell your personal information.
1. Information stored on your device
The App saves the following on your device only. It is never sent to us:
- Sound effect and music volume settings
- Your best score
You can delete this information at any time by clearing the App’s storage or uninstalling the App.
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The App shows full-screen ads provided by Google AdMob, a service of Google LLC. To show, measure, and protect ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK built into the App may automatically collect and send to Google:
| Information | Examples |
|---|---|
| Device identifiers | Android advertising ID, app set ID |
| Approximate location | Derived from your IP address (not GPS) |
| Device and app information | Device model, operating system version, language, screen size, app version |
| Ad interactions | Ads shown, ad taps, and similar activity |
| Diagnostics | Technical data about how the ads SDK performs |
| Android Privacy Sandbox signals | Ad topics and ad attribution, where available on your device |
Google uses this information to deliver ads, to measure how ads perform, to prevent fraud and abuse, and, where you have allowed it, to show ads based on your interests. We only receive aggregated reports (such as how many ads were shown). These reports do not identify you.
Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
3. Your choices
Consent
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the App asks for your consent through Google’s consent form before ads can use your information for personalized advertising. Where privacy laws give you the right to change your choice (including some U.S. state laws), the App shows a Privacy Options button in its Settings screen. Use it to review or change your choice at any time.
Android settings
- You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your device’s Settings → Privacy → Ads (menu names vary by device).
- You can manage ad topics and other Privacy Sandbox features in your device’s Ads privacy settings, where available.
- If you opt out of personalized ads, you will still see ads, but they will be less relevant to you.
4. Game engine (Unity)
The App is built with the Unity engine by Unity Technologies. The engine may send anonymous technical information about your device’s hardware and operating system to Unity, which uses it to improve the engine. See the Unity Game Player and App User Privacy Policy.
5. App permissions
- Internet and network state: to load ads and to check for a connection.
- Advertising ID and ad services: used by the ads SDK, as described in section 2.
- Wake lock / foreground service: used by the game engine and the ads SDK for background tasks. For example, the screen stays on during a game.
The App does not request access to your location, camera, microphone, contacts, photos, or files.
6. Sharing and sale of information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with anyone ourselves. Information is sent only by the Google and Unity software components described above, directly to those companies. Some U.S. state laws may treat interest-based advertising as “sharing” or “targeted advertising”. You can opt out using the Privacy Options button in the App (where shown) or the Android ad settings in section 3.
7. Data retention and deletion
We do not hold any personal information about you. Information on your device is removed when you clear the App’s storage or uninstall it. Google and Unity keep the information they collect according to their own privacy policies. You can reset your advertising ID at any time to disconnect past ad activity from your device. If you have a question or a request about your information, contact us (see below), and we will help you direct it to the right company.
8. Security
Information sent by the Google Mobile Ads SDK is encrypted in transit. The App does not operate its own servers.
9. Children
Orb Blitz is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, contact us and we will help remove it.
10. International users
Google and Unity may process information in the United States and other countries where they or their service providers operate.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version at this address and change the effective date above.
