Short version: We do not ask you to create an account, enter your name, email address, phone number, physical address, payment card details, contacts, photos, microphone, or camera data in the Game. The Game uses third-party services for advertising, analytics, purchases, and optional platform features. Those services may process device identifiers, advertising identifiers, gameplay events, ad events, diagnostics, and transaction-related information as described below.
Who We Are
This Privacy Policy applies to Gem Puzzle Island (the "Game"), published by Ariya Studio Co., Ltd. ("Ariya Studio", "we", "our", or "us"). The Game is available on mobile platforms and may use Apple, Google, advertising, and analytics services depending on your device, region, consent choices, and gameplay actions.
Privacy Commitments
Data That May Be Processed
The exact data processed can vary by platform, device settings, country, consent status, ad availability, and the third-party services active at runtime. In general, the following categories may be processed:
| Device and identifiers | Device model, operating system, app version, IP address, approximate location derived from IP address, device identifiers, advertising identifiers such as IDFA or Android Advertising ID where available, and identifiers generated by analytics or advertising SDKs. |
|---|---|
| Gameplay and product interaction | Game mode, board or level progress, score ranges, session events, attempts, completion or failure events, item and booster usage, reward claims, shop interactions, and other in-game events used to understand and improve the Game. |
| Advertising data | Ad requests, ad impressions, ad clicks, rewarded ad completions, ad placement, ad availability, consent status, and related measurement, fraud-prevention, and ad-performance data. |
| Purchases and entitlement state | Product identifiers, purchase or restore status, entitlement state, and store transaction information needed to deliver items or remove ads. We do not receive your full payment card number. |
| Diagnostics | Crash data, performance data, error states, SDK initialization status, and other diagnostic information used to keep the Game stable and working correctly. |
How We Use Data
- To operate the Game, save progress, unlock purchased content, restore purchases, and provide rewards.
- To show ads, including banners, interstitial ads, and optional rewarded ads.
- To measure ad performance, detect fraud or invalid traffic, apply consent choices, and support ad mediation.
- To understand gameplay balance, progression, stability, and feature usage through analytics.
- To diagnose crashes, performance problems, and other technical issues.
- To comply with platform, store, tax, accounting, anti-fraud, safety, and legal requirements.
Advertising and Mediation
The Game uses Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK for advertising and mediation. AdMob may work with Google and mediated ad partners to serve, personalize, measure, and secure ads. Depending on your location and consent choices, ads may be contextual or personalized.
The current build configuration enables the following mediated ad partners through AdMob:
Advertising supply chains may also involve authorized sellers and resellers listed in our app-ads.txt file. That file is used by the advertising ecosystem to help identify authorized digital advertising sellers for Ariya Studio inventory.
If you purchase a product that removes certain ads, the Game may stop showing forced banner or interstitial placements where applicable. Optional rewarded ads may still be available if you choose to watch them for rewards, and related ad SDK processing may still occur for those optional placements.
Analytics
The Game uses GameAnalytics to understand how the Game is played and how it performs. Analytics events may include session starts and ends, progression events, scores or level buckets, gameplay results, resource sources and sinks, ad events, purchase-related events, crash data, performance data, and other diagnostic information.
We use this information to improve game balance, fix issues, understand feature usage, and make better product decisions. We do not use GameAnalytics to ask for your name, email address, phone number, or physical address.
Purchases and Platform Features
In-app purchases are processed by the relevant app store, such as Apple App Store or Google Play. Those stores process payment details under their own terms and privacy policies. The Game may receive transaction or entitlement information needed to deliver coins, item packs, cosmetic content, remove ads, restore purchases, or recover pending transactions.
The Game may also support platform features such as Apple Game Center or Google Play Games Services for leaderboards, achievements, or sign-in where available. These services are provided by Apple or Google and are governed by their own privacy policies and account settings.
Consent and Your Choices
- Advertising consent: Where required, the Game uses Google's User Messaging Platform consent flow before requesting ads. You may be able to update privacy choices from the in-game settings when this option is available for your platform and region.
- App Tracking Transparency on iOS: On iOS, the Game may ask for permission to track across apps and websites owned by other companies for personalized ads and ad measurement. You can change this in iOS Settings.
- Advertising identifier controls: You can reset or limit your advertising identifier in your device settings. These controls are managed by Apple, Google, or your device manufacturer.
- Platform account controls: You can manage Game Center, Google Play Games, App Store, and Google Play settings through the relevant platform account controls.
Sharing
We do not sell contact information that you directly provide to us in the Game, because the Game does not ask you to provide contact information. We may share or allow processing of the data categories described above with service providers and platform partners that help us operate, monetize, analyze, secure, and improve the Game.
These partners may process data under their own privacy policies, as independent controllers, processors, service providers, or equivalent roles depending on the service and applicable law.
Retention and Security
Local save data may remain on your device until you delete the Game or clear its data. Third-party advertising, analytics, store, and platform providers retain data according to their own policies. We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the Game and related data, but no method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure.
International Processing
Our service providers may process data in countries other than the country where you live. When this happens, data may be subject to local laws and transfer mechanisms used by those providers.
Children
The Game is intended for a general audience and does not ask players to submit names, email addresses, phone numbers, or similar contact details. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through account registration or forms in the Game. Advertising and analytics partners may process persistent identifiers or technical data as described in their policies and SDK documentation.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us through a support channel outside the Game, please contact us through the support or contact method listed on the Game's app store page.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or receive a copy of personal data, and you may have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. Because the Game does not require an Ariya Studio account, some requests may need to be handled through the relevant advertising, analytics, store, or platform provider, or through your device and app store settings.
