Our servers also keep short technical logs, which can include IP addresses, to keep the service running and secure.

We do not collect your precise location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone. Google or Apple handles your payment. We never see your card or bank details.

Kept only on your device

Your local save, settings and any daily reminder stay on your device. Reminders are optional local notifications, which the system asks you to allow.

4. How we use data

We use the data above to run the game, keep your progress, fix faults, improve the game and prevent abuse. Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, our legal bases are: performance of our contract with you (game, cloud save), legitimate interests (security, fraud prevention), consent (analytics and crash reports), required), and legal obligations (such as tax records).

5. Your choices

Analytics and crash reports. The first time you start the game it asks whether you allow them. Until you answer they stay off, and nothing that happens before your answer is sent. If you allow them, the usage events, device details and crash reports in section 3 are collected from then on.
If you do not allow them. You can still play the whole game, the same way.
Changing your mind. Use Settings → Privacy at any time. Your answer stays on this device and is not part of your cloud save, so each device asks once.
No advertising. The game has no ads. It does not read your advertising identifier and does not ask to track you across other apps.
Not covered by this choice. The anonymous account, cloud save and feature settings need a connection to work and are part of the game. You can delete them, see section 9.

We do not sell your personal data for money. We share it only as follows:

Google provides Firebase, Google Play and Play Games. See Google's Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
Apple provides the App Store and Game Center. See Apple's Privacy Policy.
Unity Technologies supplies the game engine. See Unity's Privacy Policy.
Other players see your display name, score, stars and account id on the daily challenge leaderboard, if you submit a score. If you never set a name, it shows "Station Master". Scores you post to Play Games or Game Center are shown under your profile on those services.
Authorities or advisers, where the law requires it, or to protect our rights and users.
A new owner, if the game is sold or transferred. We will tell you if that changes how your data is handled.

7. Where data is stored

Cloud saves are stored in Google Cloud's Mumbai region in India. Google and Apple may process analytics, crash and account data in other countries, including the United States. Where the law requires it, these transfers rely on the safeguards those providers offer.

8. How long we keep data

Data	Kept for
Account, cloud save, balances	Until you delete your account
Daily challenge scores	Until you delete your account
Analytics event data	14 months
Crash reports, server logs	For the periods set by Google for those services
Local save	Until you uninstall the game or clear its data

9. Deleting your account

Open Settings → Account → Delete account in the game, or follow the steps on our account deletion page. This permanently deletes your cloud profile and progress, coins, hints, owned items, leaderboard entries and sign-in account.

One thing remains:

The local save on your device. It stays as a guest save, so you can keep playing. Uninstall the game or clear its data to remove it.

Deletion does not reach data held separately by Google and Apple, such as store purchase history and scores or achievements in Play Games and Game Center. Analytics and crash data are not stored under your account, so they expire on the schedule in section 8.

10. Children and teens

The game is for people aged 13 and over and is not directed at children under 13. Its store content rating describes the game's content, not its intended audience. The game does not ask your age. The game has no ads.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has used the game, email sky.techno.biz@gmail.com and we will delete the data we can identify. If you are under the age of majority where you live, ask a parent or guardian before you play or buy anything.

11. Your rights

Depending on where you live, including India, the EEA, the UK and some US states, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or move your data, to withdraw consent, to object to or restrict some uses, to nominate someone to act for you, and to complain to a data protection authority or regulator. To use these rights, email sky.techno.biz@gmail.com. Because the game does not ask for your name or email address, we may need your Player ID to find your data. If we cannot link a request to an account, we may not be able to act on it. We will not treat you unfairly for using your rights.

12. Security

Data travels between the game and our services over encrypted connections. Firestore rules allow each player to read only their own account data, and balances can be changed only by our server code. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot promise absolute security.

13. Changes

If this policy changes, we will update this page and its date. We will tell you in the game or on the store listing if a change is significant. New features, such as push notifications or in-app purchases, will be added here before they are used.
