Privacy Policy
- Cırcır has no accounts, sign-in, chat, or in-app purchases. We do not ask for your name, email, phone number, location, contacts, photos, or files.
- Your game progress and settings are stored only on your device. We do not run servers that receive your data.
- The game shows ads through Google AdMob. Google may collect device identifiers and related data to show and measure ads. You can control ad personalization (see section 4).
1. Who we are
This policy applies to the Cırcır mobile game for Android (the "Game"), published by Circir Games ("we", "us"). You can contact us at studiocircir@gmail.com. Website: circirgames.com.
2. Information we collect
We do not collect any personal information directly. The Game does not have user accounts, and we do not receive, store, or sell your data.
Data stored only on your device
To make the Game work, the following is saved locally on your device and is never sent to us:
- Game progress: unlocked levels, stars, best scores, and an unfinished level so you can continue it
- Lives and their refill time, and your daily streak
- Settings: sound, music, language, theme, and background choice; which tutorial tips you have seen
- How many rewarded ads you have watched today (to apply a daily limit)
- An estimate of your skill based on your results, used only to adjust level difficulty for you
This data stays on your device until you clear the Game's data or uninstall the Game.
3. Third-party services
Google AdMob (advertising)
The Game uses Google AdMob, provided by Google LLC (and Google Ireland Limited for users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland), to show:
- Rewarded ads that you choose to watch, for example to get a life or extra moves. Watching them is always optional.
- Interstitial ads shown occasionally after a level ends, never during play.
When the Game requests or shows an ad, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect and process the following data:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Device identifiers, such as the Android advertising ID and app set ID | Advertising, ad measurement, fraud prevention |
| IP address, which may be used to estimate your general location (country or city) | Advertising, fraud prevention, security |
| Device and app information, such as device model, operating system, language, and app version | Advertising, analytics, diagnostics |
| Interactions with ads, such as views and taps | Advertising, ad measurement, analytics |
| Diagnostic data, such as SDK performance and crash information | Analytics, diagnostics |
This data is collected by Google directly and is not shared with us in a form that identifies you. Data is encrypted in transit. Google's processing is governed by its own policies:
- Google Privacy Policy
- How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services
- Google Mobile Ads SDK data disclosure
Unity (game engine)
The Game is built with the Unity engine by Unity Technologies. We have not enabled Unity Analytics, Unity Ads, or Unity crash reporting. Unity may still collect limited technical information about the device, such as hardware model, operating system, and graphics capabilities, to improve its engine. See the Unity Game Player and App User Privacy Policy.
4. Your choices and consent
- Consent for personalized ads. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the Game asks for your consent before showing personalized ads, using Google's consent tool. You can change your choice at any time in the Game under Settings → Ad Privacy (this option appears where consent is required).
- Advertising ID. You can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings (Settings → Google → Ads on most Android devices). After deletion, ads are no longer personalized with that ID.
- Optional ads. Rewarded ads are only shown when you choose to watch one.
5. Children
The Game is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child under 13 has provided information through the Game, please contact us so we can help.
6. Data retention and deletion
Data stored on your device is kept until you clear the Game's data or uninstall the Game; you can delete it at any time that way. Because we do not have accounts or servers that store your data, there is no data held by us to delete. Data collected by Google is retained according to Google's retention policy.
7. International transfers
Google may process ad-related data in countries other than your own, including the United States, with safeguards described in Google's privacy policy.
8. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information, including under the GDPR and UK GDPR (EEA and UK), the KVKK (Türkiye), and US state laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). These may include the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your information, to withdraw consent, and to opt out of targeted advertising or the "sharing" of personal information for that purpose.
- We do not sell your personal information for money.
- Ad-related data is collected and controlled by Google. To opt out of personalized ads, delete your advertising ID in your device settings or, where shown, use Settings → Ad Privacy in the Game.
- For any other request or question, email us at studiocircir@gmail.com. We will respond within the time required by applicable law. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
9. Security
The Game does not transmit your game data to us. Communication between the Game and Google's ad services uses encrypted connections (HTTPS).
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy, for example if the Game adds new features or services. We will publish the updated version on this page and change the effective date above.
