Privacy Policy / 隱私權政策

Privacy Policy (English)

Steven Huang ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Pixel Squadron mobile application on iOS and Android (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we handle it.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information Collected Automatically — Advertising Only

The App displays advertisements powered by Google AdMob. When you consent to personalized advertising (via the iOS App Tracking Transparency prompt or the Google UMP consent form shown to users in the European Economic Area), Google may collect:

• Advertising Identifier (IDFA on iOS / GAID on Android): A resettable device-level identifier used to deliver and measure personalized ads.
• Approximate device information: OS version, device model, and general app behavior signals used by Google's ad-serving systems.

If you decline consent, Google will serve non-personalized ads and will not use your advertising identifier for ad targeting.

We ourselves do not receive, store, or process your advertising identifier. All ad data flows directly between your device and Google's servers.

1.2 Information Stored Locally on Your Device

All game progress and settings are stored exclusively on your device in the App's private storage area. This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to us or any third party. The following items are stored locally:

Category	Examples
Scores	High scores for Endless mode and Stage mode
In-game currency	Coin balance
Achievements	Unlocked achievement identifiers
Ship unlocks	Which ships have been unlocked
Upgrade levels	Level of each of the 7 upgrade categories
Settings	Audio volume, language preference, etc.

1.3 Information We Do NOT Collect

We explicitly do not collect, access, or process any of the following:

• Precise or approximate location data
• Contacts, call logs, or messages
• Camera or microphone data
• Photos or files from your device storage
• Health or fitness data
• Payment card or financial information
• Biometric data
• Crash reports or error logs (no crash-reporting SDK is integrated)
• Analytics telemetry (no Firebase Analytics, no third-party analytics SDK)
• Your name, email address, or any account credentials (there are no user accounts)

2. How We Use Information

The only information processed by third-party systems relates to ad delivery:

Purpose	Data Used	Legal Basis
Serve advertisements (personalized, if consented)	Advertising identifier, device signals	Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a); ATT on iOS; UMP on EEA)
Serve advertisements (non-personalized, if not consented)	No advertising identifier; contextual signals only	Legitimate interest / no consent required

We use locally stored game data solely to provide in-game functionality (save progress, restore settings). This data is never sent anywhere.

3. Third-Party Services

The App integrates the following third-party services that may process data on your device or on Google's servers:

Google AdMob

• Purpose: Display banner and rewarded video advertisements.
• Data collected by Google: Advertising identifier (after consent), device signals.
• Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Ad personalization opt-out: https://adssettings.google.com

Google User Messaging Platform (UMP)

• Purpose: Collect and manage advertising consent for users in the European Economic Area (GDPR) and other regions where consent is legally required.
• Data collected by Google: Consent choices stored locally; no additional personal data.
• Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

No other third-party SDKs with data collection capabilities are integrated. The game engine (Flame), audio system (flame_audio), and all visual assets are purely local; they do not transmit any data.

4. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information to any third party.

We do not share your personal information with any party except:

• Google (AdMob/UMP): As described in Section 3, Google receives advertising signals directly from your device when you use the App. This is governed by Google's own Privacy Policy.
• Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority, to the extent we hold any such information.
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of substantially all assets, any locally stored data would remain on your device and any rights under this policy would transfer to the successor.

5. Data Storage and Security

Local data: Stored entirely on your device in the App's private storage area. The operating system prevents other apps from reading it, and we have no way to access it remotely.

Ad-related data: Processed and stored by Google on Google's servers in accordance with Google's data retention and security practices. See https://policies.google.com/privacy for details.

We do not operate any independent cloud storage or server infrastructure for this App.

6. Data Retention

Local game data remains on your device until you uninstall the App or clear its data through your device settings. We cannot access or delete it remotely.

Advertising data retained by Google is subject to Google's own retention policies.

7. Your Rights

7.1 For All Users

You have the right to:

• Access: Request information about what personal data (if any) we hold about you. Because all game data is stored locally on your device, we hold no personal data in our own systems.
• Withdraw advertising consent: On iOS, change the ATT permission in your device Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → Pixel Squadron. For users in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, the Google UMP consent form will reappear on next launch after you reinstall the App or clear its data, allowing you to update your consent choice.
• Reset advertising identifier: On iOS, go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → Reset Advertising Identifier. On Android, go to Settings → Google → Ads → Reset advertising ID.
• Contact us: For any privacy-related questions, email sky904567@gmail.com.

7.2 European Economic Area — GDPR

If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

• Right of access (Art. 15): Obtain confirmation of whether your data is processed and a copy of that data.
• Right to rectification (Art. 16): Correct inaccurate data.
• Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") (Art. 17): Request deletion of your data.
• Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18): Restrict how your data is used under certain conditions.
• Right to data portability (Art. 20): Receive your data in a machine-readable format.
• Right to object (Art. 21): Object to processing based on legitimate interests.
• Right to withdraw consent (Art. 7(3)): Withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.
• Right to lodge a complaint: You may file a complaint with your local supervisory authority (e.g., Ireland's DPC, Germany's BfDI, or the authority in your member state).

Legal basis for ad processing: Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)). The UMP consent form is shown to EEA users before any personalized ad is served.

Because we hold no personal data on our own servers, most GDPR requests must be directed to Google for ad-related data. We will assist you in identifying the appropriate contact.

7.3 California Residents — CCPA/CPRA

If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the CPRA:

• Right to know: What personal information is collected, used, or disclosed.
• Right to delete: Request deletion of your personal information.
• Right to correct: Request correction of inaccurate personal information.
• Right to opt out of sale or sharing: We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as defined by the CCPA. The advertising identifier used by AdMob may qualify as "sharing" under CCPA; you can opt out via your device's advertising settings (see Section 7.1).
• Right to non-discrimination: We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us at sky904567@gmail.com.

7.4 Taiwan — Personal Data Protection Act (個人資料保護法)

If you are in Taiwan, you have the following rights under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA):

• Right of inquiry and review (Art. 3(1)): Request access to your personal data.
• Right to make copies (Art. 3(2)): Request a copy of your personal data.
• Right to correction or supplement (Art. 3(3)): Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.
• Right to cessation of collection, processing, or use (Art. 3(4)): Request that we stop collecting, processing, or using your data.
• Right to deletion (Art. 3(5)): Request deletion of your personal data.

To exercise these rights, contact us at sky904567@gmail.com. We will respond within a reasonable time in accordance with applicable law.

8. Children's Privacy

The App is rated 9+ (mild cartoon violence) and is intended for general audiences. It is not directed at children under the age of 13 (as defined by COPPA in the United States) or under the age of 16 (as defined under GDPR for digital services in certain EEA member states).

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Because the App has no account system, no personal information is collected from any user directly by us. Ad serving is handled by Google AdMob; Google's own policies and family-safe ad settings apply.

If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information through the App, please contact us immediately at sky904567@gmail.com and we will take appropriate steps.

9. Advertising Consent and Controls

iOS — App Tracking Transparency (ATT): When you first launch the App on iOS, the system displays Apple's standard ATT prompt requesting permission to track across apps and websites. Choosing "Allow Tracking" enables personalized ads via AdMob. Choosing "Ask App Not to Track" results in non-personalized ads. You can change this choice at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking → Pixel Squadron.

EEA/UK/Switzerland — Google UMP Consent Form: Users in the European Economic Area, UK, and Switzerland are shown a consent form on first launch (and periodically as required by Google's consent policies). You may accept or decline consent for personalized advertising. Your choice is stored locally on your device and honored by Google's ad systems.

10. Permissions

The App requests only the following minimal device permissions, all of which exist solely to support advertising:

Permission	Platform	Why we need it
Tracking permission	iOS only	So Apple can show the standard "Allow tracking?" prompt before any personalized ad is served. If you decline, only non-personalized ads will be shown.
Internet access	Android only	To download and display ads from Google's servers.
Advertising ID access	Android only	So Google AdMob can deliver and measure ads on Android 13 and later, in line with consent you have granted.

The App does not request permission to use your camera, microphone, location, contacts, calendar, health data, Bluetooth, photos, or any other sensitive feature of your device.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the App, applicable laws, or our practices. When we make material changes, we will:

1. Update the "Last updated" date at the top of this document.
2. Make the updated policy available at the same public URL used in the App Store and Google Play store listings.

Your continued use of the App after the effective date of any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. If you do not agree with the revised policy, you should stop using the App.

12. Contact Us

• Developer: Steven Huang (Individual Developer)
• Email: sky904567@gmail.com
• Website: https://cos-go.com
