Privacy Policy Hamad Arshad Apple Appstore

Privacy Policy for Games by Hamad Arshad Effective Date: October 4, 2025 This Privacy Policy describes how Hamad Arshad ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and discloses information in connection with the mobile games we develop for the Apple App Store (collectively, the "Services"), which are created using the Unity Engine and utilize third-party services like AdMob and Firebase. 1. Developer Information Detail Value Developer Name Hamad Arshad Contact Email hamadarshadgames@icloud.com 2. Data We Collect We primarily rely on third-party service providers to collect and process non-personally identifiable information and, in some cases, limited personal data, strictly for the purposes described below. Automatically Collected Data (Non-Personal) When you use our Services, information is collected automatically by the game engine (Unity) and our service providers (Firebase/AdMob). This includes: * Device Information:
 Device type, operating system version, screen resolution, language settings.
 * Game Usage Data:
 Achievements, high scores, levels played, time spent in the game.
 * Performance and Stability Data:
 Crash logs, diagnostic data, and stability metrics collected by 
Firebase Crashlytics. * Advertising Identifiers:
 The Identifier for Advertisers (
IDFA), if permitted by your device settings and consent (see Section 4).
 * IP Address:
 Used for general location (country/region) for analytics and ad serving.
 Data Collected for Specific Features (Potentially Personal) * Identifiers:
 A Firebase installation ID or a User ID assigned by Firebase Analytics is used to uniquely identify your device for analysis and notifications.
 * In-App Purchase Data: We do not
 collect or store your payment information. All purchase transactions are handled by the Apple App Store, and we only receive a record of the transaction (e.g., item purchased, time of purchase) for fulfillment and accounting purposes.
 * Notifications:
 If you opt-in to push notifications, Firebase stores a token required to send you notifications.
 3. Third-Party Service Providers We utilize reputable third-party services that may collect data independently, subject to their own privacy policies. A. Google AdMob (Advertising and Monetization) AdMob is used to display advertisements within our games. * Advertising Types: AdMob may serve 
personalized ads
 if we have obtained the necessary consent (see Section 4). If consent is denied, or for users reasonably believed to be children (see Section 5), AdMob serves 
non-personalized ads. * Data Used by AdMob:
 Device information, Ad IDs (IDFA), IP address, and interaction data (views/clicks).
 * GDPR Compliance (CMP):
 We use AdMob’s Consent Management Platform (CMP) to obtain and manage consent from users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the UK, in compliance with GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive.
 B. Google Firebase (Analytics, Notifications, and Stability) Firebase is a suite of tools we use to understand how our apps are used and to maintain their quality. * Firebase Analytics:
 Collects anonymous data about usage patterns (e.g., feature use, session duration) to improve the Services.
 * Firebase Crashlytics:
 Collects data about crashes and errors to diagnose and fix stability issues. This data typically includes device state information, but does 
not include personally identifiable information. * Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM):
 Used to send push notifications to users who have opted in.
 C. Unity Engine The underlying technology for our games collects operational data related to device configuration and game performance, which is essential for the Services to function correctly. 4. App Tracking Transparency (ATT) If you are using our Services on an iOS device, in compliance with Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework, we will ask for your explicit permission to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites for advertising purposes. * If you grant permission:
 We may share your device's Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) with AdMob to serve you 
personalized advertisements. * If you decline or do not respond: We will not share your IDFA, and AdMob will only serve non-personalized advertisements, which are based solely on contextual information within the game (e.g., content of the game or time of day). 5. Children's Privacy (All Ages Games) Our games are designed for all ages. We are committed to complying with all applicable laws concerning the collection of data from children, including the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the U.S. and relevant provisions of the GDPR in the EEA/UK. * Age Gating/Non-Personalized Ads: We take measures to ensure that users reasonably believed to be under the age of 13 (or relevant minimum age) are served only non-personalized advertisements and that no personal data is collected from them beyond what is strictly necessary for the operation of the app. * No Intentional Collection of Personal Data from Children: We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that their child has provided us with personal data without their consent, they should contact us at the email address provided above. We will take steps to remove such information from our files. 6. How We Use Your Information We use the collected information for the following purposes: 1. To Provide and Maintain the Services: To operate the games, manage your high scores, and fulfill in-app purchases. 2. To Improve the Services: To analyze usage and crash data (Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics) and fix bugs. 3. To Personalize Content and Ads: If you provide ATT/GDPR consent, to show you relevant advertisements (AdMob). 4. To Communicate with You: To send push notifications about game updates or new content, if you have opted in (Firebase Notifications). 7. Data Security and Retention We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect from accidental loss and unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. We retain collected data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. 8. Your Privacy Rights Depending on your location (e.g., EEA, UK, California), you may have the following rights: * Right to Access and Portability: The right to request copies of the personal data we hold about you. * Right to Rectification: The right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or incomplete. * Right to Erasure (Right to be Forgotten): The right to request that we delete your personal data. * Right to Object/Restrict Processing: The right to object to or request restriction of our processing of your personal data. * Withdrawing Consent: You can withdraw your consent for personalized advertising at any time by resetting the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) in your device's privacy settings or by changing your consent preferences within the game (via the CMP). To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at hamadarshadgames@icloud.com. 9. Changes to this Privacy Policy We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy in the Services and updating the “Effective Date” at the top of this Policy.
