Retro Pixel Runner

1 Overview & Commitment

This Privacy Policy outlines the privacy practices of the mobile game Retro Pixel Runner (in-app: Pixel Runner, "the Game", "we", "our", or "us"), developed by Orion Tech. We are fully committed to protecting player privacy across all age groups by providing an exciting, pure pixel-art endless runner experience free from trackers, data harvesting, and invasive profiling.

2 Target Audience: All Age Groups (Family-Friendly Standards)

Retro Pixel Runner is designed and rated for Everyone / All Age Groups and adheres strictly to international family protection regulations:

• Google Play Families Policy: Fully aligned with Google's strict requirements for family-safe apps and games suitable for all age demographics.
• COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act): Zero collection, storage, or transmission of personal data from children under 13 years of age.
• GDPR-K (European Union General Data Protection Regulation for Children): Compliant with European child data minimization principles, non-commercialization, and complete absence of behavioral profiling.
• Universal Privacy: Because no personal data is collected from anyone, players of every age receive the same high standard of privacy protection.

3 Information We Do NOT Collect

We respect the privacy of all players. The Game explicitly does NOT collect, read, or process:

• No Personal Identifiers: We do not collect names, email addresses, physical addresses, phone numbers, or account logins.
• No Device or Hardware Identifiers: We do not access, store, or track IMEI, MAC addresses, Android Device IDs, or advertising identifiers (AAID / IDFA).
• No Location Data: The Game has no location permissions and does not track GPS, cell tower, or IP-based location data.
• No Camera, Microphone, or Media: The Game never requests access to your camera, microphone, photos, storage media, or contact lists.
• No Social Media or Chat: The Game contains no chat functionality, multiplayer social feeds, or external social networking SDKs.
• No Telemetry or Remote Analytics: The Game does not transmit usage metrics, session durations, or crash analytics to external cloud endpoints.

4 Device Timezone (Day/Night Mode Detection)

• No Location Inference: The timezone value is used solely for visual presentation. We do not derive, store, or transmit geographic location from the timezone setting.
• Ephemeral Processing: Timezone is read in volatile RAM at runtime and is never logged, cached, or written to persistent storage.
• Fully Offline: Timezone data never leaves the device and is never sent to any server or third party.

5 Local Data Storage (On-Device Only)

To deliver a continuous, seamless gameplay experience, the Game utilizes standard Android SharedPreferences (keyed locally as pixel_runner_prefs) solely on the physical device to retain:

• High Score: Your highest recorded game score (an integer value) so you can track your personal best.
• Sound Settings: A binary on/off preference (boolean) remembering whether game audio effects are muted or unmuted.
• Selected Theme: Your chosen visual theme — "Past" (Wild West 1800s) or "Future" (Cyberpunk 2099) — stored as a simple string so the game remembers your preferred era between sessions.

6 Third-Party Services & Advertising

Retro Pixel Runner is a standalone, offline arcade experience:

• No Advertising SDKs: The application does not integrate third-party ad networks (such as Google AdMob, Unity Ads, AppLovin, or IronSource).
• No Third-Party Trackers: No analytics libraries, behavioral trackers, or marketing SDKs (such as Firebase Analytics, Facebook SDK, or Adjust) are present in the app bundle.
• Zero Permissions: The application does not declare any network or internet permissions (android.permission.INTERNET is not requested in the Android Manifest).

7 Children's Privacy (COPPA & GDPR-K Compliance)

Safeguarding the safety and digital wellbeing of younger players is a core pillar of our design philosophy:

• We do not solicit, collect, process, or transmit personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the European Union).
• Parents and guardians retain full control over their children's devices at all times. Since all data is stored locally, parents can easily wipe gameplay data using standard Android device settings.
• The game does not feature any in-app purchases, microtransactions, third-party advertisements, or external web links.

8 Data Deletion (Google Play Policy Compliant)

In adherence to Google Play's User Data & Data Deletion policies, users and parents have complete authority over all stored application data:

• Instant In-Device Erasure: Navigate on your Android device to Settings > Apps > Pixel Runner > Storage > Clear Storage / Clear Data. This immediately purges all locally saved scores, theme preferences, and settings.
• App Uninstallation: Uninstalling Retro Pixel Runner automatically deletes all sandboxed files and preferences created by the app.
• Communication Deletion: Any email correspondence with developer support can be completely removed upon request within 30 calendar days.

9 International Privacy Rights (GDPR, CCPA & LGPD)

We honor privacy principles worldwide, including under the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), and Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD):

• Right to Know & Access: Because we do not collect, retain, or process any personal data, there is no personal profile or data record to request.
• No Sale or Sharing of Personal Data: We explicitly certify that we do not sell, rent, trade, share, or monetize any user or child data under any jurisdiction.
