# Super GameTimer — Privacy Policy

**Last updated:** 14 April 2026  

This policy describes how **Super GameTimer** (“the app”) handles information when you use it on iPhone. The app is a **local turn timer**; you do **not** need an account, and we do **not** run our own social network or cloud game service in the app.

If anything here conflicts with **Apple’s in‑app labels** in App Store Connect or on the App Store product page, the **store listing** and **system permission dialogs** control for required disclosures.

---

## Summary

- **Game data** (profiles, presets, match settings you enter) is stored **on your device** as part of normal app storage. We do not require you to create an account to use the core timer.
- The app may show **ads** using **Google’s advertising services** (for example **Google AdMob**). Those services can collect or process **identifiers**, **coarse location**, **usage and diagnostics** information, and related signals to deliver and measure **advertising** and **analytics**, including in support of **personalized ads** where allowed by platform settings and your choices.
- On supported iOS versions, Apple may show **App Tracking Transparency (ATT)**. Your choice there affects whether the advertising identifier (such as **IDFA**) can be used for **tracking** across other companies’ apps and websites, as described in Apple’s prompt.
- You can limit ad personalization and tracking through **iOS Settings** (for example **Privacy & Security → Tracking**, and ad choices offered by Google and other industry tools). Links appear in the **Your privacy choices** section below.

## Information the app and our partners may process

The following aligns with the **App Privacy** details published for Super GameTimer on the App Store. Categories may overlap; some data may be used for **more than one** purpose.

### Identifiers (including device / advertising identifiers)

- **What:** Device and advertising-related identifiers made available by iOS and advertising SDKs (for example identifiers used for ads and measurement).
- **Why:** **Third‑Party Advertising**, **Analytics**, and—where applicable—**tracking** across apps and websites owned by **other companies**, consistent with Apple’s App Privacy definitions and your ATT choice.
- **Linked to you:** May be used for **tracking** as described in the App Store privacy section. May also appear under data **not linked** to your identity in Apple’s labels, depending on how partners process it.

### Location (coarse)

- **What:** **Coarse** location (not precise GPS for this disclosure) may be inferred or used at a regional level for advertising and measurement.
- **Why:** **Analytics**, **Third‑Party Advertising**, and—where applicable—**tracking** as described on the App Store.

### Usage data

- **What:** May include **product interaction** (for example how you navigate or use the app in ways observed by the SDKs) and **advertising‑related usage** (for example ad impressions, responses, or related events as supported by the SDK).
- **Why:** **Analytics**, **Third‑Party Advertising**, and—where applicable—**tracking** as described on the App Store.

### Diagnostics

- **Crash data:** Information about crashes or stability events may be processed for **Third‑Party Advertising** and **Analytics** as disclosed on the App Store.
- **Performance data:** Information about app performance may be processed for **Analytics** and **Third‑Party Advertising** as disclosed on the App Store.

## Third‑party services (advertising & measurement)

Advertising and related technology are provided by **third parties** (such as **Google**). Their processing is governed by their own policies and agreements, in addition to this notice:

- [Google Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy)  
- [How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services](https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites)  
- [Google Advertising Policies](https://support.google.com/adspolicy/answer/6008942)  

We do not control all processing by third parties; we configure the app to use industry‑standard mobile advertising tools consistent with the App Store disclosures you see for Super GameTimer.

---

## Data retention

Retention of information collected by **third‑party advertising or analytics** services is determined by those providers’ policies and your device settings. Locally stored **game profiles and preferences** remain on your device until you delete them in the app or remove the app (subject to iOS backup behavior).

---

## Children

The app is not directed to children in a way that would change these disclosures; parents and guardians should use Apple’s **Screen Time** and **Family Sharing** controls if needed. Advertising services may have additional age‑related rules in their own policies.

---

## International users

If you use the app outside your home country, information may be processed in the United States or other countries where Google and its infrastructure operate, as described in Google’s policies.

---

## Changes to this policy

We may update this page to reflect product, legal, or App Store requirements. The **Last updated** date at the top will change when we do; continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
