Privacy Policy
Tapick (the “Service”) values your privacy and complies with applicable data protection laws. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Service collects, why, and how it is used.
1. Information We Collect and How
The developer does not directly collect personally identifiable information (such as name, email, phone number, or account). However, the advertising and analytics SDKs embedded in the Service may automatically collect and process the following.
| Category | Examples | Collected by |
|---|---|---|
| Advertising identifiers | Android Advertising ID (AAID), iOS advertising identifier (IDFA) | Google AdMob |
| Device & usage data | Device model & OS version, language/country settings, IP address, ad interaction logs, app usage events | Google AdMob |
| Approximate location | Coarse country/region-level location derived from IP (no precise GPS location is collected) | Google AdMob |
Collection method: Automatically collected via SDKs as you launch the app and interact with ads.
2. How We Use Information
The information collected is used only for the following purposes.
- Serving advertising to provide the game for free, and measuring ad impressions/clicks
- Providing personalized advertising (where you have allowed personalized ads)
- Preventing invalid clicks/abuse and improving ad quality
- Diagnosing errors and improving stability
3. Advertising & Third-Party Sharing (AdMob)
The Service uses Google AdMob, a mobile advertising platform provided by Google LLC. AdMob and Google advertising partners independently collect and use the information above to serve ads, in accordance with their own privacy policies.
- Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Google advertising technology partners: https://support.google.com/admob/answer/9012903
- How Google uses data from partner sites/apps: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
The developer does not sell or otherwise share your information with third parties beyond the advertising purposes described above. Advertising partners may be located outside your country, in which case your information may be transferred and processed abroad.
4. Data Retention
The developer does not store information that identifies you. The retention period of data collected by the advertising SDKs is governed by the policies of Google and other providers; see the links in Section 3 for details. Where retention is required by applicable law, data is kept for the required period.
5. Your Rights and Ad Settings
You can control personalized advertising or reset your advertising identifier through your device settings.
- Android: Settings → Google → Ads → “Reset advertising ID” or “Opt out of Ads Personalization”
- iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → turn off “Allow Apps to Request to Track” (ATT)
Resetting your advertising identifier or turning off personalized ads does not remove ads themselves, but ads will no longer be personalized to you.
6. Children’s Privacy
The Service is not primarily directed to children under the age of 14 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Where applicable, only non-personalized (contextual) ads are served to children in accordance with relevant policies. If a parent or guardian believes a child’s information has been collected, please contact us at the address below and we will promptly review and take action.
7. Security Measures
The Service uses reputable SDKs and follows the security policies of the relevant providers to keep information processed for advertising/analytics purposes safe. Data is transmitted over encrypted (HTTPS) channels.
