Effective Date: August 4, 2026
Animal Cricket ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information about you when you use our mobile application Animal Cricket (the "App").
User IDs: We collect unique user IDs (randomly generated GUIDs) to identify users during their sessions.
App Usage Data: We collect information about how you interact with the App, including the number of times you visit certain pages, sections you tap on, and other in-app behaviors.
Account and purchase information: If you sign in with Google Play Games or buy coins, we process the linked Firebase account ID, Google Play purchase status, product ID, purchase time, region, and a one-way hash of the purchase token. Google Play processes payment details; we do not receive or store your full card or bank-account details.
Device and integrity information: For purchases, cloud wallet reconciliation, and fraud prevention, Google Play Integrity may provide app-recognition, licensing, account, and device-integrity verdicts. We also store a device-generated public key and signed in-game coin journal. The private key remains non-exportable on the device.
Advertising rewards: For rewarded ads, Google Mobile Ads may send signed verification data such as an ad transaction ID, reward type, timestamp, and account ID so we can prevent duplicate or fraudulent coin grants.
Purchase support: If you submit Purchase Help inside the App, we process the message you provide together with your verified account ID, app version, a one-way device-install hash, and redacted purchase-attempt diagnostics such as product, state, error code, and event times. The server attaches relevant wallet, purchase, refund, and consumption status. If you explicitly provide them on the Purchase Help website, we also process your Google Play order ID, contact email, and up to three screenshots. Screenshots are stored in private cloud storage and referenced by restricted support records; they are not published through a public URL. Support tickets do not include raw purchase tokens, payment-card details, Firebase credentials, or Play Integrity tokens.
We use the information we collect to:
We use service providers only as needed to operate the App, including Google Play, Firebase, Google Cloud, Google Play Integrity, and Google Mobile Ads. These providers process information under their own terms and privacy policies. We do not sell personal information. Coin-pack prices are not personalized; Google Play may localize price and currency for the user's market.
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your data. This includes encryption of data in transit, server-side purchase verification, restricted database access, one-way purchase-token hashes, encryption of any short-lived token retained only for consumption retry, and non-exportable device keys.
We keep account, wallet, purchase, refund, security, and fraud-prevention records for as long as needed to provide the service, resolve disputes, prevent duplicate grants, comply with law, and satisfy Google Play accounting requirements. Raw purchase tokens are not retained in logs or permanent purchase records. A token encrypted for a failed consumption retry is deleted after consumption succeeds.
Detailed purchase-attempt diagnostics are automatically deleted after approximately 180 days. In-game support tickets, including the player's message, optional contact/order details, screenshots, and support response, are retained for up to three months. Minimal purchase, refund, compensation, and audit records may be kept longer where needed to prevent duplicate grants, resolve disputes, or meet legal and platform obligations.
Purchases and refunds are processed under Google Play's policies. A refund or chargeback reverses the full associated coin grant. If those coins were already spent, the wallet can show a negative balance; gameplay earnings repay that balance before further coin-store spending is allowed.
You can request to access, modify, or delete your data by contacting us at bharutech18@gmail.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.
The App's declared audience is ages 13–15, 16–17, and 18+. It is not designed for children under 13. Parents or guardians may contact us about an account or data request.
