Launchyard Privacy Policy
This policy explains what data the Launchyard game ("the game") handles on Android. The game is published by Bodanius Games (bodaniusgames.com, "we"). If you have a question, email us at info@bodaniusgames.com.
What the game itself stores
The game has no accounts, sign-in or chat. Your progress (gold, parts, ship layouts, settings and which purchases you own) is saved only on your device. We do not receive it. Uninstalling the game or clearing its data deletes it. Android may include it in your device backup if backups are switched on.
Advertising
The game shows ads through Google AdMob: optional rewarded ads that you choose to watch for a bonus, and occasional full-screen ads between runs. The Google Mobile Ads SDK collects and shares the following data with Google to show ads, measure them and prevent fraud:
| Data | Used for |
|---|---|
| IP address, which can give an approximate location | Advertising, analytics, fraud prevention |
| Ad interactions such as views and taps | Advertising, analytics |
| Diagnostics such as app launch time | Analytics |
| Device identifiers, including the Android advertising ID | Advertising, fraud prevention |
The data is encrypted in transit. In the UK, the European Economic Area and Switzerland, the game asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown, using Google's consent form. You can change your choice at any time from Privacy options in the Shop tab or the pause menu. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings.
Google's use of this data is described in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.
Purchases
In-app purchases are processed by Google Play. We do not receive your payment details. The game only learns which product you bought, so it can unlock it.
Reviews
The game may ask you to rate it using Google Play's in-app review window. Your rating goes to Google Play, not to us.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data. Because the game does not send your progress to us, the data above is held by Google. Use the links in the Advertising section, or contact us and we will help.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
