Halka — Privacy Policy

• The Game has no accounts, sign-up or login. We never ask for your name, e-mail address, phone number or contacts.
• We have no servers of our own. Your game progress is stored only on your device and is never sent to us.
• The Game uses no analytics tools.
• The Game uses Google AdMob to show ads. AdMob may collect some information from your device (e.g. advertising ID, approximate location/IP address) to serve and measure ads. Details below.
• In-app purchases are made through Google Play (Android) or the App Store (iOS); we never see your payment details.

The Game stores your level and season progress, stars, records, in-game point balance, purchased/earned in-game items, settings (sound, vibration, etc.) and game statistics only in your device's local storage.

• This information is not sent to us or to any other server; we cannot access it.
• It is deleted when you uninstall the Game or clear its data in your device settings.
• If your device's own backup feature (Android backup or iCloud) is enabled, app data may be included in your backup according to your device settings. Backups are managed by Google/Apple; we have no access to them.

The Game is free and supported by ads. It shows rewarded ads (ads you choose to watch in exchange for an in-game reward) and, every few games, interstitial ads between games. Interstitial ads are not shown once the No Ads pack has been purchased.

Ads are served by Google LLC's AdMob service. In line with Google's policies, AdMob may collect and process:

• Device and advertising identifiers: on Android, the Advertising ID and App Set ID; on iOS, the advertising identifier (IDFA) only if you allow it, and the identifier for vendor (IDFV).
• Approximate location: country/city-level location derived from your IP address. (The Game does not request GPS/precise location permission.)
• Device and app information: device model, OS version, language, screen size, app version.
• Ad interactions: which ads were shown, whether they were tapped or watched.
• Diagnostics: ad loading errors and performance data.

This information is used to show ads, measure ad performance, cap frequency, prevent fraud and abuse and (if you consent) serve personalised ads. It is processed by Google; we do not receive this raw data and only see aggregated (non-identifying) revenue reports from AdMob. Ads shown are limited to content suitable for general audiences (parental guidance level).

How Google uses data:

• Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
• Advertising technologies: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads

Consent (EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland and other regions where required): where the law requires it, the Game asks for your consent for personalised ads and for storing/accessing information on your device using Google's consent management tool (User Messaging Platform). You can change your choice later in the Game under Settings → Privacy options.

iOS — App Tracking Transparency (ATT): on iOS, the Game asks for your permission through Apple's system prompt before accessing the advertising identifier (IDFA). If you decline, the IDFA is not shared; you can still play the whole Game and ads are not personalised. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

Turning off ad personalisation:

• Android: reset or delete your advertising ID in Settings → Google → Ads (or Settings → Privacy → Ads).
• iOS: turn off "Allow Apps to Request to Track" in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking, and personalised Apple ads in Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising.

You will still see ads, but they will not be chosen based on your interests.

The Game offers optional purchases such as the No Ads pack, starter pack, in-game point packs, life packs, a booster pack and the seasonal GOLDEN TICKET. No purchase grants a randomly determined reward (e.g. a chest); the contents of every pack are shown before purchase.

• Payments are processed by Google Play Billing on Android and the Apple App Store on iOS, and are subject to that store's terms.
• We do not see or store your card or payment details.
• To deliver your purchase, the Game receives only the purchase confirmation (product and transaction information) from the store and processes it on your device; it is not sent to us.
• One-time purchases (e.g. No Ads) can be recovered in the Game via Market → Shop → Restore purchases.
• Purchases and refunds are handled by the store: Google Play https://support.google.com/googleplay · App Store https://support.apple.com/118223

Rivals and rankings in the weekly tournament are simulated opponents generated by the Game, not real players. There is no chat, friends, profile sharing or exchange of information with other players. Your scores are not shared with anyone.

If real leaderboards are added in the future through Google Play Games or Apple Game Center, this policy will be updated.

• Internet access: to load ads and process purchases.
• Vibration (Android): for in-game haptic feedback (can be turned off in settings).
• Advertising ID (Android AD_ID): added by the Google ads library for advertising.
• Tracking permission (iOS ATT): asked only for personalised ads; granting it is optional.

Permissions such as camera, microphone, contacts, photos, files or precise location are not requested.

The Game is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The Game itself does not ask for any personal information; however, the advertising service may process the information described above. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child's information has been processed, please contact us at druidmindsoftware@gmail.com

• Your game progress stays only on your device and is kept until you delete it (by uninstalling the app or clearing its data).
• Data collected by the advertising service is transmitted to Google over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) and retained according to Google's retention policies.
• We operate no server or database holding personal data.

As there are no accounts and your data is stored only on your device, you can delete all of your game data yourself:

• Android: uninstall the app, or go to Settings → Apps → Halka → Storage → Clear data.
• iOS: uninstall the app (touch and hold the icon on the Home Screen → Delete App).

For advertising data: reset/delete your advertising ID and use Google's tools at https://myadcenter.google.com For any questions, write to druidmindsoftware@gmail.com

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Turkish Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK), you have the right to learn whether your personal data is processed, to request information, rectification and erasure, to object to processing and to withdraw consent.

• Since we store no data about you outside your device, you can delete your game data yourself as described in section 9.
• You can exercise your rights regarding advertising data through the Game's Privacy options, your device's ad/tracking settings and Google's tools (https://myadcenter.google.com).
• For any questions or requests: druidmindsoftware@gmail.com

We may update this policy from time to time (e.g. when a new feature or service is added). The current version is always published at https://druidmind.com/ and the effective date at the top is updated. Significant changes may also be announced in the Game.
