This Privacy Policy explains how information and data are handled when you play the game, in compliance with applicable Google Play Developer Policies, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and applicable privacy standards.
1. Personal Data Privacy & Child Safety (COPPA Compliant)
The Crooked Run does not require user account creation, registration, or sign-in. We do not collect, request, or store any Personally Identifiable Information (PII) such as your real name, email address, phone number, physical location, or contact list.
Players of all ages, including children and families, can play all 100 missions and endless runner modes anonymously.
2. Local Game Data & Storage
All your gameplay progress — including high scores, total coin balance, unlocked missions, player XP rank levels, game history, and audio/vibration settings — is saved strictly locally on your device.
We do not transmit or sell your personal game progress to external servers.
3. Advertising & Google AdMob Integration
The Crooked Run incorporates Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) to serve advertisements, including interstitial ads displayed between game runs and optional rewarded video ads, which allow players to watch short video ads to revive player lives with +2 extra lives.
Google AdMob may process non-personal device identifiers, such as Advertising ID, to:
- Serve family-safe, relevant advertisements.
- Measure ad impressions and performance.
- Enforce ad frequency capping.
- Prevent ad fraud, invalid clicks, and security breaches.
Ad serving is configured to comply with applicable Google Play policies and children's privacy requirements.
4. Data Sharing & Non-Sale of Data
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal user data. Data processed by Google AdMob for ad delivery and fraud prevention is handled in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy .
5. Internet Connection
Core gameplay, including endless runner modes, 100 missions, coin economy, and offline progress saving, does not require an active internet connection.
An internet connection is used for retrieving advertisements through Google AdMob and displaying optional rewarded video ads.
6. Third-Party Services
The game integrates Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) for ad serving and anti-fraud verification. No other third-party tracking SDKs, social media plugins, or background analytics tools are used in the app.
7. Children & Family Policy
The Crooked Run is intended for general entertainment, with a target age of 13+ and families. We do not knowingly ask children to provide personal information.
AdMob ad placements follow applicable family-safe content requirements.
8. Game Data Reset & Control
Players have full control over their locally stored data. You can clear your game history and reset all progress at any time using the "CLEAR HISTORY" or "RESET ALL PROGRESS" buttons in the game settings menu.
Uninstalling the app or clearing app storage on your device will also remove locally saved data.
9. Updates to Policy
