Privacy Policy — Nova Rogues
This Privacy Policy explains what data the mobile game Nova Rogues ("the Game", "we", "us") collects, why, and the choices you have. Nova Rogues is published by an individual developer. By installing or playing the Game you agree to this policy.
We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, or precise location.
Data we collect
The Game itself stores your run progress and settings on your device. The data described below is collected by the third-party services the Game uses (analytics, crash reporting, and advertising). We do not sell your personal data.
| Category | Examples | Why | Collected by |
|---|---|---|---|
| Usage / gameplay events | Screens viewed, runs started/finished, features used, session length | Understand how the Game is played and improve it | Google Firebase Analytics |
| Diagnostics / crash data | Crash logs, error stacks, device model, OS version, performance metrics | Detect and fix crashes and bugs | Google Firebase Crashlytics |
| Advertising identifiers | Apple IDFA (iOS), Google Advertising ID (Android), IP address, ad interactions | Show ads and measure ad performance | ironSource / Unity LevelPlay |
| Approximate location | Country/region inferred from IP address | Ad delivery and analytics (not precise GPS) | Firebase / ironSource |
| Purchase records | Which in-app purchases you made (e.g. "Remove Ads") | Deliver and restore purchases | Apple / Google; Unity In-App Purchasing |
We do not knowingly collect more than the above. Payment card details are handled entirely by Apple and Google — we never see or store them.
Advertising and tracking
The Game shows ads through ironSource / Unity LevelPlay. To show relevant ads and measure their performance, ad partners may use your device's advertising identifier (IDFA / Google Advertising ID).
- iOS: the first time you open the Game, iOS asks whether you allow tracking (the App Tracking Transparency prompt). If you choose "Ask App Not to Track," the advertising identifier is not used to track you. You can change this any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of ad personalization, in Settings → Google → Ads.
Third-party services
These providers process data as described above. Their own privacy policies apply:
- Google Firebase (Analytics & Crashlytics) — firebase.google.com/support/privacy
- Unity / ironSource LevelPlay (ads) — unity.com/legal/game-player-and-app-user-privacy-policy
- Apple (App Store, in-app purchases) — apple.com/legal/privacy
- Google Play (store, in-app purchases) — policies.google.com/privacy
Children
Nova Rogues is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
Data retention
Run progress and settings stay on your device until you delete the Game. Analytics, crash, and advertising data are retained by the providers above according to their own retention policies.
Data deletion
Nova Rogues has no user accounts, so the data it touches is tied to your device, not to a personal profile.
- On-device data (run progress, settings): deleted immediately when you uninstall the Game.
- Advertising data: reset or delete your advertising identifier at any time — iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking; Android: Settings → Google → Ads.
- Analytics, crash and advertising data held by our providers: to request deletion, email novarogues@gmail.com with the subject "Data deletion — Nova Rogues" and your device advertising ID. We will request deletion from the relevant providers (Google Firebase, ironSource / Unity LevelPlay).
Your rights
Depending on where you live (e.g. EEA/UK under GDPR, California under CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal data, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, contact us at the email above. You can also limit ad tracking using the device controls described under "Advertising and tracking."
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the Game evolves. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date at the top of this page.
