Overview
We collect the absolute bare minimum information necessary to (i) keep our applications error-free and (ii) implement the advertising that forms part of our revenue stream.
We never see any personal information (unless you email us) and don’t want to.
A word about Advertising
Advertising is a necessary evil – you don’t want to see it, and we’d much rather not interrupt you with it. But unless you purchase our applications (and we’d love you to!) then it’s the only means by which we can fund the good stuff – writing software.
Personalised adverts generate more revenue for us, and (we hope) are more relevant to you – which is why we use them where possible. The alternative is more, and less relevant, advertising.
THE DetailS
(a) EXCEPT as noted below, we (Arahina Digital) collect no information about our users, maintain no email lists, do not and will not sell user data to any third party.
(b) Our applications use personalised 3rd party advertising and the associated technology. Users in some jurisdictions (currently the European Union and certain US states) will be asked for consent first and may elect at any time to revoke that consent. Our applications collect NO personal or behavioural information other than (i) that you launched our app and (ii) the IDs necessary to serve advertising personalised according to your profile assembled from your interaction with OTHER applications or websites.
(c) Our games use Firebase Analytics to collect anonymous progress information. This aggregated data is used to generate overall statistics and doesn’t provide any information about a specific user. It provides us with the insight necessary to calibrate difficulty levels so as to create an enjoyable, as opposed to frustrating, user experience while still providing a challenge. For users in the European Union, this information is collected under the “Legitimate Interests” provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation.

(d) Our applications use Firebase Crashlytics to collect anonymous performance and diagnostic information. In the event of an application crash, anonymous diagnostic information is collected automatically. This information is necessary for us to detect and fix problems across the vast ecosystem of different devices and configurations. For users in the European Union, this information is collected under the “Legitimate Interests” provisions of the General Data Protection Regulation.

(e) Should you choose to contact us via email, we will not use your email for any purpose other than that for which you provided it.
(f) Google’s “Play Store” retains any reviews/ratings you submit – we use that feedback to improve our applications and will reply as appropriate.
(g) The nature of the Internet is such that any interaction with our applications, website or email will almost certainly result in your IP address and possibly other metadata, being logged on a range of servers outside our control or knowledge. We have no insight into, access to, or interest in this information.
