Privacy Policy

A legal disclaimer

The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and high-level explanations and information on how to write your own document of a Privacy Policy. You should not rely on this article as legal advice or as recommendations regarding what you should actually do, because we cannot know in advance what are the specific privacy policies you wish to establish between your business and your customers and visitors. We recommend that you seek legal advice to help you understand and to assist you in the creation of your own Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy - the basics

Having said that, a privacy policy is a statement that discloses some or all of the ways a website collects, uses, discloses, processes, and manages the data of its visitors and customers. It usually also includes a statement regarding the website’s commitment to protecting its visitors’ or customers’ privacy, and an explanation about the different mechanisms the website is implementing in order to protect privacy. 

 

Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations of what must be included in a Privacy Policy. You are responsible to make sure you are following the relevant legislation to your activities and location. 

What to include in the Privacy Policy

Generally speaking, a Privacy Policy often addresses these types of issues: the types of information the website is collecting and the manner in which it collects the data; an explanation about why is the website collecting these types of information; what are the website’s practices on sharing the information with third parties; ways in which your visitors and customers can exercise their rights according to the relevant privacy legislation; the specific practices regarding minors’ data collection; and much, much more.

Privacy Policy — Eleven Paper Flights (Android)

# Privacy Policy — Eleven Paper Flights (Android)

**Effective date:** August 29, 2026
**App:** Eleven Paper Flights for Android (package `com.aavya.elevenpaperflights`)
**Developer:** Ishan Sharma ("we", "us")
**Contact:** elevenpaperflights@gmail.com

This Privacy Policy explains what information the Android version of Eleven
Paper Flights (the "App") handles, how it is used, and the choices you have.

> This policy covers the **Android** app only. The iOS version of Eleven Paper
> Flights contains no advertising and is covered by its own privacy policy.

## The short version

- Your gameplay data (scores, attempts, streaks, settings) is stored **only on
  your device**. We operate no servers and keep no databases of user data.
- The App shows **optional rewarded advertisements only** — when you choose to
  watch one to unlock the daily Golden Flight, or (up to twice per day) for a
  second chance to continue a crashed flight. Advertising is provided by
  **Google AdMob**, which collects certain device data to serve and measure
  ads (see "Advertising" below).
- If you sign in to **Google Play Games**, your scores and achievements are
  submitted to Google's leaderboard service.
- The App reports **anonymous usage statistics** (which flight numbers are
  played, scores, app opens) to **Google Analytics for Firebase** so we can
  understand play patterns and improve the game. No name, email, or precise
  location is collected.
- The App has **no account system of its own**, no in-app purchases, no chat,
  and no data collection by us on our own infrastructure.

## Information stored on your device only

The App stores the following locally (using Android's standard app storage).
It never leaves your device and is not accessible to us:

- Daily flight attempts used, the daily reset time you configure, and your
  day-streak counter;
- Your remaining second chances for the day;
- Your best scores (today's best, personal best) and a local high-score list;
- App settings (background sound, game sounds, haptics);
- A temporary queue of scores awaiting submission to Play Games;
- The date the App last showed a rating prompt (so it doesn't ask often).

Uninstalling the App permanently deletes all of this local data.

## Advertising (Google AdMob)

The App uses the **Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob)** to show **rewarded ads**:
short advertisements that you may *choose* to watch — to unlock one extra
"Golden Flight" per day, or (at most twice per day) for a second chance after
a crash. Ads are never shown during normal play, and never without your
explicit action. There are no banner ads and no pop-up ads.

To serve and measure ads, Google's SDK may collect and process:

- Your device's **Advertising ID** (and, on newer Android versions, Privacy
  Sandbox ad-services signals);
- **IP address** (used to infer coarse location for ad delivery);
- **Device information** (model, OS version, language, screen size, mobile
  carrier and network type);
- **Ad interaction data** (which ads were served, viewed, and clicked) and
  **diagnostics/performance data** (crash and latency signals related to ad
  serving).

This data is collected and processed by **Google** and its certified ad
partners under their own policies, not by us — we never receive it. For
details, see:

- Google's Privacy Policy: <https://policies.google.com/privacy>
- How Google uses ad data: <https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads>
- Google's ad-technology partners: <https://support.google.com/admob/answer/9012903>

### Consent (EEA, UK and Switzerland)

Where required by law, the App shows a **consent dialog** (Google's User
Messaging Platform) before any ad is requested. You can decline personalized
advertising; you may then be shown non-personalized (contextual) ads or, if
consent is required and not given, no ads at all — the rest of the game is
unaffected. Watching an ad is never required to play the 11 free daily
flights.

### Your advertising controls

- **Reset or delete your Advertising ID:** Android Settings → Privacy → Ads.
  If you delete the Advertising ID, ads may still be shown but are not
  personalized using that identifier.
- **Opt out of ad personalization:** the same Settings screen, or your Google
  account's ad settings at <https://adssettings.google.com>.

## Usage analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)

To understand how the game is played — for example, how many players reach
which of the day's flights — the App logs a small set of **anonymous gameplay
events** to Google Analytics for Firebase: flight started/finished (with the
flight number and score), the day's flights being used up, and rewarded-ad
unlocks. Along with these events, the Firebase SDK collects a random
**app-instance identifier**, basic **device information** (model, OS version,
language), **coarse location inferred from IP**, and app-open/session counts.

- This data contains no name, email address, contacts, or precise location,
  and we do not use it for advertising.
- It is processed by **Google** on our behalf and retained for at most
  **14 months**.
- Clearing the App's data or uninstalling resets/removes the app-instance
  identifier. You may also request deletion via the contact address below.
- Google's privacy policy: <https://policies.google.com/privacy>



## Ratings and reviews

The Settings screen has a "Rate this app" option that opens the App's Google
Play listing. Occasionally, after a good flight, the App may show the standard
**Google Play in-app review** dialog (at most once per month, and only for
players with some play history). This dialog is provided by Google Play under
Google's policies; the App never asks you screening questions first and never
sees what you write or rate. Your review, if you leave one, is handled
entirely by Google Play.

## Notifications

With your permission, the App schedules a **local notification** announcing
when your daily flights have refreshed. It is generated entirely on your
device — there is no push server. Withdraw permission at any time in Android
Settings → Apps → Eleven Paper Flights → Notifications.

## Motion data

The home screen uses the device **accelerometer** (tilt) for a subtle parallax
effect in the scenery. Motion readings are processed in real time, on-device,
and are never stored or transmitted.

## Sharing

If you choose to share a score card, the App hands an image and message to the
standard Android share sheet. What happens next (which app you share to, who
receives it) is entirely your choice and is governed by the receiving service.
The App does not post anything on your behalf.

## Data we do NOT collect

The App does not collect, request, or have access to: precise location,
contacts, photos, camera, microphone, health data, browsing history, email
addresses, or any biometric data. We (the developer) collect no personal data
on any infrastructure of our own. The only third-party SDKs in the App are
Google's (Mobile Ads / User Messaging Platform / Play Games / Play In-App
Review / Analytics for Firebase).

## Children's privacy

The App is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal
information from children, and the App contains no chat or social features.
Ad content is served by Google under its ad-content policies; parental
controls for Google accounts and Play Games participation are managed through
Google Family Link and account settings. If you believe a child has provided
personal information in connection with the App, contact us and we will
assist.

## Data retention and deletion

- **Local data:** retained on your device until you uninstall the App;
  uninstalling deletes it permanently.
- **Play Games data** (scores, achievements): retained by Google as part of
  your Google account; manage or delete it through your Google account
  settings or <https://myaccount.google.com>.
- **Advertising data:** collected and retained by Google under its policies;
  exercise controls via <https://adssettings.google.com> or
  <https://myactivity.google.com>.
- We hold no user data ourselves, so there is nothing further for us to
  retain or erase.

## Your rights

Depending on your region (e.g. GDPR in the EU/UK, CCPA/CPRA in California,
DPDP in India), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to
the processing of personal data. Because the data described above is held by
**Google** (advertising and Play Games), those rights are best exercised
against Google via <https://myaccount.google.com> and
<https://adssettings.google.com>. For EEA/UK users, ad-consent choices can be
changed by reinstalling the App or clearing its data, which re-triggers the
consent dialog. We will also respond to any privacy inquiry sent to the
contact address below.

## Changes to this policy

If we change this policy (for example, if a future update changes how ads or
data are handled), we will update this page and revise the effective date
above. Material changes will be noted in the Play Store release notes for the
update that introduces them.
