Local gameplay information is generally stored on your device and is not necessarily transmitted to our servers. Unless an App specifically provides cloud synchronization or another online storage feature, we do not operate a personal cloud account containing your local game save.
9. Deleting Local Data
You can generally remove locally stored App data by:
- Clearing the App's data through Android settings; or
- Uninstalling the App from your device.
Clearing application data or uninstalling the App may permanently remove locally stored game progress, settings, virtual currency, upgrade progress, and other locally stored information.

Some Apps may request permission to send notifications. Where notifications are supported, they may be used for purposes such as:
- Game reminders and daily rewards
- Gameplay-related and offline progress notifications
- Important app-related information, features, or events
Notifications are controlled by the user through Android's notification settings. You can disable notification permission at any time through your device settings.
12. Exact Alarms and Scheduled Reminders
Certain Apps may use Android's alarm or scheduling functionality where required for features such as scheduled local reminders.
If an App requires a permission such as SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM, it will only be used where the corresponding App functionality requires accurate scheduling. The availability and permission requirements may vary depending on your Android version and device. You can manage applicable permissions through Android settings.
13. Permissions
Our Apps request only permissions that are required for the functionality provided by the particular App. Depending on the App, permissions may include:
- Internet access
- Network-state access
- Notifications
- Alarm / scheduling permissions
Permission requirements may vary between Apps. We do not claim that every permission listed in this Privacy Policy is used by every App. Android may allow you to manage permissions through: Settings → Apps → [App Name] → Permissions.
14. Information Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information as a business practice. Information may nevertheless be processed or disclosed in limited circumstances:
14.1 Service Providers
We may use third-party service providers necessary to operate our Apps, including Google services such as Google Play Services, Google AdMob, and Google Firebase. These providers independently process information according to their own privacy policies.
14.2 Legal Requirements
Information may be disclosed if reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful government requests, comply with court orders, protect legal rights, or investigate suspected fraud or abuse.
14.3 Safety and Security
Information may be processed or disclosed when reasonably necessary to protect the Developer, users, the public, app infrastructure, and legal rights and property.
15. Third-Party Services
Our Apps may depend on third-party services. Important third-party privacy resources include:
- Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Google Advertising: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads
- Google Firebase Privacy: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy
- Google Play Services: Governed by Google's applicable privacy practices.
16. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information processed through our Apps. Where information is transmitted between the App and applicable third-party services, communications use industry-standard transport encryption such as HTTPS/TLS.
However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Therefore, while we take reasonable measures to protect information, we cannot guarantee absolute security against every possible threat.
17. Data Retention
Different types of information may be retained for different periods:
- Local App Data: Remains on your device until you clear app data, delete it through an app feature, or uninstall the app.
- Analytics & Diagnostic Information: Retained by Google and its services according to their respective retention policies.
- Advertising Information: Retained and processed by Google according to Google's policies and retention practices.
18. Data Deletion Requests
If you believe that information associated with your use of one of our Apps requires deletion, you may contact us at:
Email: dhaval.vadher.official@gmail.com
Subject: Data Deletion Request
Your request should include enough information for us to understand which App you are referring to, the nature of your request, and any relevant identifier. We will review valid requests and take appropriate action within a reasonable period and in accordance with applicable law.
19. Children's Privacy
Our Apps are intended for a general audience unless a particular App states otherwise. We do not knowingly request children to provide direct personal information such as their name, address, telephone number, or email address.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at: dhaval.vadher.official@gmail.com.
Important Note Regarding Children's Advertising
Some of our Apps may display advertisements through Google AdMob. Where an App is intended for children or is subject to child-directed advertising requirements, advertising configuration and data practices may be adjusted as required by applicable laws and platform policies.
20. International Users
Our Apps may be used by individuals in different countries. Third-party service providers, including Google, may process information on servers or systems located in countries other than your country of residence. Where required by applicable law, appropriate safeguards or user choices may be provided by the relevant service provider.

You may contact us at: dhaval.vadher.official@gmail.com.
22. European Economic Area and United Kingdom Users
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with applicable data-protection legislation, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws, including rights relating to access, deletion, objection, restriction, portability, and consent.
Where required, advertising and analytics services may request appropriate consent before processing certain information through Google's consent management mechanisms.
23. California and Other U.S. Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, residents of certain U.S. states may have additional privacy rights. We do not sell personal information as a business practice.
If you believe you have a privacy right that applies to information processed by us, you may contact: dhaval.vadher.official@gmail.com.
24. Do Not Track Signals
Our Apps do not currently respond to every browser-based "Do Not Track" signal because our Apps are primarily mobile applications rather than websites. Advertising and privacy controls provided by Android, Google Play, Google AdMob, and other applicable services provide alternative controls for managing advertising preferences.
25. Links to Other Websites and Services
Our Apps or websites may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, security, or policies of third-party websites. When you access a third-party service, you should review that service's privacy policy.
26. App-Specific Privacy Practices
This Privacy Policy may apply to multiple Apps developed by Dhaval Vadher. Not every App necessarily uses every service, permission, feature, or type of data processing described in this Privacy Policy. Where an App has additional or materially different data practices, we provide additional disclosures within the App, its Google Play Store listing, or an App-specific privacy notice.
27. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When changes are made, the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Privacy Policy will be updated. We encourage users to periodically review this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of an App after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the updated policy to the extent permitted by applicable law.
