Privacy Policy
This policy covers the Android game Galactic Miner (package
com.crookedpixelgames.galacticminer) and this website. The short version: playing
the game involves one kind of data collection. Google collects advertising data from your
device to serve the game's optional rewarded ads; the first section below lists exactly what.
We (Crooked Pixel) have no accounts, analytics, or servers of our own, and Google shows us
only aggregated ad statistics, never data about you as an individual.
Data collected to serve ads (Google AdMob)
The game shows optional rewarded ads through Google AdMob. They only play when you choose to watch one in exchange for an in-game bonus. To serve and measure ads, Google may collect information from your device, including:
- Device identifiers such as the Android advertising ID and app set ID
- IP address and the approximate location derived from it
- Device and app information (model, OS version, app version)
- Ad interaction data (which ads were shown, viewed, or tapped)
- Diagnostics such as app performance data (for example launch time, crash and hang rates, and energy usage)
This collection is governed by Google's policies, not ours: see the Google Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the game shows a consent dialog (Google's User Messaging Platform) before any ads are served, and you can decline personalized advertising there. On any Android device you can also limit or reset ad tracking in system settings under Privacy → Ads (for example, by deleting your advertising ID).
We do not sell your personal information. What Google shares with us is aggregated statistics (totals of ad views and earnings), never data about you as an individual.
What we do not collect
Galactic Miner has no account, registration, or sign-in. Your game progress is saved only on your device and is never transmitted to us. We run no analytics of our own and operate no servers that receive data about you. The Google ad serving described above is the only data collection connected to the game.
Notifications
If you enable them, the game schedules local reminder notifications on your device. These are created and delivered entirely on-device; no notification data is sent to us or anyone else.
Children
Galactic Miner is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Data retention and deletion
Because we do not collect your data, there is nothing for us to retain or delete. We operate no servers that store user data, so there is nothing on our side to secure or breach. Your local save data is removed when you uninstall the game or clear its app data. Ad-related data held by Google is subject to Google's retention and security practices linked above.
This website
This site is a static page: it sets no cookies, runs no scripts, and includes no analytics or tracking. It is served through Cloudflare, which may process visitor IP addresses as part of normal content delivery and security.
Changes to this policy
If the game gains features that change what data is handled (for example crash reporting, cloud save, or in-app purchases), we will update this policy and the effective date above before those features ship.
