Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
“Arrow Escape” (the “app”) is published by MD Sharik, an individual developer (“we”, “us”). Contact: md.sharik5012@gmail.com.
2. What stays on your device
To remember where you are, the app saves a small file in its private storage on your phone:
- which levels you have completed and your current level,
- how many hints you have left,
- your settings (colour theme, sound, vibration).
This file is never uploaded to us or to any server by the app. It is deleted when you uninstall the app or clear its data in Android settings. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, camera, microphone or location.
3. Ads (Google AdMob)
The app is free and shows ads provided by Google AdMob (Google LLC): a banner, an occasional full-screen ad between levels, and optional rewarded ads that you choose to watch for an extra drop or hint.
To deliver and measure ads and to prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK in the app may collect and use information such as:
- your device’s advertising ID,
- your IP address and an approximate location derived from it,
- device and app information (model, operating system version, app version, language, network type),
- how you interact with ads (views, clicks, whether a rewarded ad was completed),
- diagnostic information about the ad SDK.
We do not receive your advertising ID or any of this data ourselves, and we do not sell your data. Google processes it under its own policies:
4. Your choices
- Ad personalisation: on Android go to Settings → Privacy → Ads (on some phones Settings → Google → Ads) to delete your advertising ID or opt out of ads personalisation. Ads will still appear, but they will not be based on your interests.
- Google ad settings: adssettings.google.com.
- No ads at all: you can use the game offline (airplane mode) – ads need an internet connection. Rewarded drops and hints then won’t be available.
- Delete the saved game: uninstall the app or clear its storage.
5. Permissions the app uses
| Permission | Why |
|---|---|
| Internet / network state | To load ads. The game itself works offline. |
| Advertising ID | Used by the Google ad SDK (see section 3). You can reset or remove it in Android settings. |
| Vibration | Haptic feedback when you tap arrows. You can turn it off in the app’s settings. |
The ad SDK may add a few related system permissions (for example wake lock or foreground-service permissions it needs to play ads).
6. Children
Arrow Escape is not directed at children under 13 (or under the minimum age in your country, for example 16 in parts of the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information through the app, contact us and we will help get it removed with the relevant provider.
7. Sharing, retention and security
We do not sell, rent or share personal information, because we do not collect any ourselves. The only data flow is between your device and Google through the ad SDK. Your saved game never leaves your device, so there is nothing for us to retain, and no server of ours to secure.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example the EU/UK under the GDPR, or California under the CCPA) you may have rights to access, correct, delete or object to the processing of your personal data. Because we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for us to provide or delete. For data processed by Google for advertising, use the controls above or contact Google through the links in section 3. You may also contact us with any privacy question.
9. Changes to this policy
If the app starts doing something new with data (for example adding purchases or analytics) we will update this page and change the “last updated” date above before the change goes live.
