Ironhold - TD - Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information is processed when you play Ironhold TD. Ironhold TD is a single-player game. We do not require an account, and we do not ask you for your name, email address, or any other personal information to play. ## 1. Information stored on your device Game progress (levels, stars, gems, tech tree, settings, and purchase flags) is stored locally on your device. It is not transmitted to us. Uninstalling the game deletes this local data. Progress and purchase flags are intentionally excluded from Android cloud backup so purchases always restore through Google Play rather than through a device backup. ## 2. Information processed by third-party services The game contains optional ads served by **Google AdMob**, optional **Google Firebase Analytics / Crashlytics** diagnostics, and purchases handled by **Google Play Billing**. These services are provided by Google LLC and may process: | Service | Data | Purpose | |---|---|---| | Google AdMob | Device and advertising identifiers, IP address, approximate location derived from IP, ad interaction data, app version and device information | Serving and measuring ads, fraud prevention | | Firebase Analytics | App events (e.g. app opens), device model and operating system, app version, app-instance identifier | Understanding aggregate usage to improve the game | | Firebase Crashlytics | Crash stack traces, device state at the time of a crash, app version, installation identifier | Diagnosing and fixing crashes | | Google Play Billing | Purchase token, product identifier, purchase status | Processing and restoring in-app purchases. Card and payment details are handled solely by Google; we never see them. | We do not sell your personal information. Data processed by these Google services is handled under Google's Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and Google's terms for the AdMob and Firebase services. The game's menus load the **Cinzel** and **Nunito** web fonts from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when it serves them; the game remains playable if that request fails. ## 3. Your choices and consent - **Ads (EEA, UK, and Switzerland):** a Google-certified consent message is shown before ads load. You can change your choice at any time from the app's Settings screen where available, or by clearing the app's data. - **Analytics and crash reporting:** can be turned off at any time in **Settings → Privacy → Share analytics & crash reports**. - **Purchases:** "Remove Ads Pro" disables banner and interstitial ads. ## 4. Children's privacy Ironhold TD is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us and we will delete it. ## 5. Data retention and deletion Local game data remains on your device until you uninstall the game or reset your progress in Settings. To request deletion of analytics or crash data associated with your installation, contact us at YOUR_EMAIL_HERE. You can also reset your advertising identifier from your device's Google settings. ## 6. Security Data transmitted by the Google services listed above is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we only integrate established Google SDKs and keep them updated. ## 7. Changes to this policy We may update this policy as the game evolves. Material changes will be reflected by a new effective date in this document and, where appropriate, in the app's store listing.
