Privacy Policy for Poles
This Privacy Policy explains how VJ Naveen ("we", "us", or "our") handles information in the mobile game Poles (package name com.vjn.poles).
Poles is a puzzle game that does not require an account or login. The core game is designed to run on the user's device, and we do not operate a game server that receives gameplay data.
1. Information We Collect
Poles itself does not ask you to provide your name, email address, phone number, postal address, password, contacts, photos, or other personal information.
The game may use third-party advertising services, including the Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) SDK, to display banner advertisements and optional rewarded video advertisements. In connection with advertising, Google and its advertising partners may process device or other identifiers and other information needed to provide, measure, secure, and improve advertising, subject to Google's policies and the user's device, regional, and consent settings.
The Google Play Data Safety disclosure for Poles identifies Device or other IDs as a data type that may be collected and shared with third parties. This disclosure is intended to be consistent with the information shown on the Google Play listing.
2. How Advertising Data Is Used
Advertising-related information may be used by Google and its advertising partners to:
- Deliver and display advertisements in the app.
- Provide optional rewarded advertisements.
- Measure advertising performance and prevent fraud or abuse.
- Provide contextual or, where permitted and based on applicable settings and consent, personalized advertising.
Google's processing of information through its advertising services is governed by Google's own privacy policies and terms. For more information, please see Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
3. Gameplay and Device Data
Poles does not require an online account and does not send your game progress, moves, puzzle solutions, or other gameplay content to a game server. Gameplay functionality is primarily performed locally on your device.
Some technical information may nevertheless be processed by third-party services used by the app, such as advertising infrastructure, when necessary to provide those services.
4. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We do not operate a service for sharing your gameplay information with other users.
Information handled by third-party services, such as Google Mobile Ads, may be shared with or processed by those service providers and their partners as necessary for advertising, measurement, security, fraud prevention, and legal compliance. Their processing is subject to their applicable policies.
5. Data Security
We take reasonable steps to protect information under our control. Data transmitted by third-party services used by Poles may be protected using encryption in transit where supported by those services.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Because Poles does not require an account and we do not maintain a game account database, we do not retain a user account or user profile for Poles. Game data stored locally on your device is controlled by your device and may be removed by uninstalling the app or clearing its app data, subject to the operating system's behavior.
Advertising providers may retain and process information according to their own policies and applicable legal requirements. For requests concerning data processed directly by Google, users should use Google's available privacy and data-management tools.
7. Children's Privacy
Poles does not knowingly ask children to provide personal information such as their name, email address, phone number, or account credentials.
Because advertising services may process device or advertising-related information, advertising treatment and consent may vary according to the user's age, region, device settings, and applicable laws. We do not knowingly use Poles to request personal information from children.
8. Your Choices
Depending on your location and device, you may have choices regarding advertising personalization and privacy consent. You can also use your Android device's advertising/privacy settings where available.
Where Google's consent tools are presented in the app, you can use them to make or change the applicable privacy choices.
9. Third-Party Services
Poles uses third-party services to support advertising. Their privacy practices are controlled by their respective providers. The primary advertising service used by Poles is Google Mobile Ads (AdMob).

10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the app, its services, or applicable privacy requirements change. The updated version will be published at this URL with a new "Last updated" date.
