1. Introduction and Controller

We take the protection of your personal data very seriously. This privacy policy informs you comprehensively about the processing of personal data when using our mobile application "Graviton" (hereinafter "App"). This declaration complies with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the EU as well as international data protection standards (e.g. CCPA, LGPD).

Controller within the meaning of the GDPR:

We use trusted third-party providers to provide functions. These providers may transfer data to third countries (e.g. USA). We ensure an appropriate level of data protection through standard contractual clauses.

A. Advertising (Google AdMob)

To finance the free app, we integrate advertisements via Google AdMob. We use Rewarded Ads (videos you watch voluntarily to receive rewards like "Revives") and occasional interstitial ads between rounds.

• Processed Data: IP address, Advertising ID, location (approximate), app interactions, performance data.
• Purpose: Display of personalized or non-personalized advertising, ad performance measurement.
• Your Choice: When launching for the first time, we ask for your consent via a Consent Management Tool (CMP) and App Tracking Transparency (iOS). You can revoke this consent at any time in the app settings.
• Provider: Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC.
• Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

B. Game Center & Leaderboards

We use Apple Game Center (iOS) to offer global leaderboards and achievements.

• Processed Data: User ID (Game Center ID), score, achievements, profile picture (if public).
• Purpose: Displaying high scores and competing with other players.
• Provider: Apple Inc.
• Privacy Policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-ww/

C. App Framework (Expo)

The app was developed using the Expo framework.

• Processed Data: Technical logs during updates (OTA updates), crash reports.

4. App Store Permissions

The app requires access to certain device functions to function correctly:

• Network Access: To load advertisements and update leaderboards.
• Vibration/Haptics: For haptic feedback in the game (can be disabled in settings).
• Tracking (iOS "App Tracking Transparency"): We ask for permission to use your Advertising ID for personalized advertising. You can decline this ("Ask App not to track").

5. International Data Transfer

Some of our partners (Google) are located in the USA. The transfer takes place on the basis of EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) or the Data Privacy Framework (if the provider is certified) to protect your data as best as possible.

6. Storage Duration

• Local Data: Game progress and settings remain stored as long as the app is installed on your device or until you delete the data in the app settings.
• Third Parties: Data (such as Advertising IDs) is generally anonymized or deleted by Google after a certain period (e.g. 13 months), provided no new consent is given.

7. Your Rights (User Rights)

Under the GDPR and other laws (CCPA), you have the following rights:

1. Access: You can request information about the data stored by us at any time.
2. Deletion: You can request the deletion of your data (locally by uninstalling, with third parties via opt-out).
3. Objection: You can object to the processing (esp. for advertising) at any time.
4. Withdrawal: Consents granted (e.g. in the cookie banner/CMP) can be revoked at any time in the app settings.

To exercise your rights, please contact us at the email address mentioned above.

8. Data Security

We implement technical and organizational measures to protect your data against loss, misuse, or access by unauthorized persons. Communication with servers (AdMob, Game Center) generally takes place exclusively via encrypted channels (HTTPS/SSL).
