1. Overview & Scope

Welcome to Cube Tank: 2D Tank Battle ("the Game", "we", "us", or "our"), developed by THJH Soft. We are deeply committed to protecting your privacy rights and ensuring the security of your personal data.

This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect when you install, play, or interact with our game, how that information is utilized, stored, and protected, as well as the choices and rights available to you under relevant privacy regulations, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and Google Play Developer Policies.

2. Information We Collect and How We Use It

To ensure proper game functionality, stability, anti-cheat protection, and ad-supported monetization, we and our authorized third-party service providers (Google AdMob) may collect the following categories of data:

A. Device and Technical Identifiers (Automated)

• Device Information: Device brand and model, operating system version, hardware specifications, system language, and network state (e.g., Wi-Fi or cellular network).
• Anonymous Advertising Identifiers: Google Advertising ID (GAID / AAID). This identifier is used exclusively by Google AdMob for ad frequency capping, fraud detection, and delivering relevant ads in accordance with Google's policies.

B. Local Gameplay Data (Stored on Your Device)

• Game Progress & Stats: Campaign stage progression (Stages 1–50), endless mode wave records, unlocked weapon types (AP Shell, Shotgun, Laser, Flamethrower, Freeze Shell, Homing Missile, Plasma Cannon), tank workshop upgrade levels (HP, Armor, Engine, Damage, Reload, Shield, Bullet Speed, Fortune), collected in-game coins, and audio/vibration settings.
• Storage Method: All gameplay progress is stored locally on your device via standard Android local storage (SharedPreferences). It is never transmitted to any private unauthorized server.

C. Crash and Diagnostics Data

• Anonymous Crash Telemetry: In the event of an application error or crash, non-personally identifiable diagnostic stack traces may be gathered to diagnose system incompatibilities, fix bugs, and optimize performance.

3. Android System Permissions

To deliver a smooth arcade gaming experience, Cube Tank requests only standard, non-sensitive Android permissions:

• android.permission.INTERNET Internet Access: Required for loading Google AdMob advertising content (app open ads, interstitial stage transitions, and optional rewarded revive ads).
• android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE Network State: Enables the application to detect network availability to optimize ad caching and prevent unnecessary network requests while offline.
• android.permission.VIBRATE Haptic Vibration: Powers tactile vibration feedback during cannon firing, recoil, and explosion impacts. You can freely turn haptic vibration ON or OFF at any time inside the in-game Settings menu.

4. Third-Party Services & SDKs

5. Data Security, Storage & Retention

We implement industry-standard technical measures to safeguard your information.

• Transmission Security: All network requests made by third-party ad providers are encrypted using modern HTTPS (TLS/SSL) cryptographic protocols.
