Privacy Policy for Snack Rush


**Last Updated: September 2, 2026**

Thank you for playing **Snack Rush** ("we", "our", or "the App"). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how Snack Rush handles user information, local data storage, and third-party advertising services in compliance with Google Play Developer Policies, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

---

## 1. Summary & Core Principles

- **No Personal Account Required**: You can play Snack Rush without creating an account or providing your real name, email address, phone number, or physical address.
- **Local-First Data Storage**: All your high scores, unlocked levels, player alias, and sound/haptic settings are stored strictly locally on your Android device using a private SQLite database (Room).
- **No Sensitive Permissions**: Snack Rush does not request or access device location, camera, microphone, contacts, storage files, or biometric data.
- **Family & Children Friendly**: The gameplay is designed for general audiences and adheres to family-safe standards without collecting personal identifiers from children.

---

## 2. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

Snack Rush stores game-related data in a private, sandboxed local database on your device:
- **Player Nickname / Alias**: A custom username chosen by you to display on the local in-game leaderboard.
- **Game Progress & High Scores**: Highest unlocked level, cumulative snacks caught, high scores, star ratings, and combo stats.
- **User Preferences**: Audio toggles (sound effects, background music volume) and haptic vibration preferences.

*Note: This data never leaves your device and is not synchronized to external proprietary servers unless you explicitly back up your device through Android OS backup services.*

---

## 3. Third-Party Services & Advertising

To support ongoing game development and provide optional gameplay perks (such as bonus shields or extra revives via Rewarded Video Ads), Snack Rush integrates the **Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) SDK**.

### Google AdMob
- **Ad Types**: Snack Rush uses user-initiated **Rewarded Ads** (where you choose to watch an ad in exchange for in-game items) and standard test ads.
- **Data Collected by Ad Networks**: The Google Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect and process certain non-personally identifiable technical information in accordance with [Google's Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) and Google Play Services policies, including:
  - Device identifiers (e.g., Google Advertising ID / GAID, Android ID).
  - Diagnostic, crash log, and app performance telemetry.
  - IP address and coarse network information for ad fraud detection and ad serving.
- **Ad Personalization Controls**: You can reset your Google Advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads at any time via your device settings (**Settings > Google > Ads > Delete advertising ID** or **Reset advertising ID**).

---

## 4. Permissions Requested

Snack Rush requests only the minimum essential Android system permissions:
- `android.permission.INTERNET`: Used exclusively to load online rewarded ads and check network status via Google AdMob.
- `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE`: Used by the AdMob SDK to determine if an internet connection is available before requesting ad assets.
- `android.permission.VIBRATE`: Used to provide tactile haptic feedback during gameplay interactions (can be disabled in Settings).

---

## 5. Children's Privacy (COPPA & GDPR-K Compliance)

Snack Rush is a casual arcade game suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect, solicit, or share personal data from children under the age of 13 (or under the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided personal information without consent, please contact us so we can take immediate corrective measures.

---

## 6. User Rights & Data Deletion

You retain complete control over all data generated by Snack Rush:
- **Instant In-App Data Wipe**: Open **Settings > Reset All Progress** to permanently delete all locally stored scores, unlocked levels, and preferences.
- **Uninstalling the App**: Uninstalling Snack Rush from your device immediately deletes all local app data and sandboxed cache.

---

## 7. Security

We take the security of your device and data seriously. Because Snack Rush does not maintain remote user databases or collect sensitive credentials, your gameplay information remains isolated inside the secure Android application sandbox.

---

## 8. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect game updates, new features, or legal requirements. Any modifications will be reflected directly within the in-game Privacy Policy viewer and updated with a revised "Last Updated" date.
