Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how the Arrowed mobile game ("the Game", "we", "us") handles information when you use it. Arrowed is a casual tap-away puzzle game published by Vulpine Creations.
1. Information we collect ourselves
Arrowed does not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information (PII) on its own. We do not have a user account system, we do not ask for your name, email, phone number, or location, and the Game does not contain analytics, crash reporting, or attribution SDKs.
Your gameplay progress (current level, coins, stars, streak, settings, chosen theme) is stored only on your device, in the operating system's standard preference store. It never leaves your phone. Uninstalling Arrowed deletes this data.
2. Information collected by Google AdMob (advertising)
Arrowed shows ads delivered by Google AdMob. AdMob is Google's mobile advertising platform and is the only third-party SDK embedded in the Game. To serve ads, AdMob may collect:
- Your device's advertising identifier (AAID) — a resettable, non-permanent ID provided by Android specifically for ad personalization;
- Your device's IP address, model, OS version, language, and coarse location derived from the IP;
- Whether you saw or interacted with an ad.
Google's handling of this data is governed by Google's own privacy policy, available at https://policies.google.com/privacy. For details on how Google uses data when you use partners' sites or apps, see https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
You can reset or limit ad personalization at any time via Android Settings → Privacy → Ads. Buying the "Remove Ads" in-app purchase removes banner and interstitial ads entirely; rewarded video ads remain optional and only run when you deliberately tap a "Watch ad" button.
3. Information collected by Google Play Billing (in-app purchases)
Arrowed offers optional in-app purchases (Remove Ads, coin packs, premium themes) through Google Play Billing. We never see or store your payment information. Google handles the entire transaction; we only receive a confirmation that your purchase was successful. See Google Play Terms of Service for details.
4. Children's privacy
Arrowed is rated Everyone but is not specifically directed at children under 13. The Game does not knowingly collect any information from children. If you believe a child has used the Game, please contact us and we will assist with any concerns.
5. EU / UK / California users (GDPR / CCPA)
On first launch in regions that require it (EU/EEA, UK, California), you'll see a Google-served consent prompt asking whether you want personalized or non-personalized ads. You can change that choice later by tapping Settings → Privacy inside the Game (which re-opens the same consent dialog), or by resetting your advertising ID in your device settings.
Because we don't collect or store any data ourselves, there is no Arrowed-side database for you to access, correct, or erase. If you want to exercise rights against ad-personalization data held by Google, follow the instructions on https://safety.google/privacy/data/.
6. Permissions Arrowed requests
- INTERNET — required to load ads and to verify in-app purchases through Google Play.
- AD_ID — declared so Android shows the correct privacy disclosure; needed by AdMob.
Arrowed does not request access to your camera, microphone, contacts, location services, photo library, or any sensitive permission.
7. Changes to this policy
If we make a material change to this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page and announce the change in the next Game update's "What's new" notes. Continued use of the Game after changes means you accept the updated policy.
