This policy explains what data our mobile game Tiny Time Trivia collects and how we use it when you play. We designed the app to collect only what we need for performance monitoring and product improvement. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising.

1. What we collect
   We collect the following categories of data strictly to operate, secure, and improve Tiny Time Trivia:
   a) App usage and diagnostics
   Session events (e.g., screens viewed, taps, session start/stop)
   Crash and error logs; performance metrics (frame rate, load times)
   Feature usage (e.g., levels/modes opened), balancing and difficulty signals
   b) Device and technical information
   Device model, OS version, app version
   Language, country/region (from device settings)
   Anonymous, app-generated identifiers (e.g., installation ID, Unity player ID)
   c) Account and progress (only if you choose to link an account)
   Authentication status and account identifier (Apple/Google/email)
   Gameplay progress and settings saved via Unity Cloud Save
   Ownership/entitlement status for in-app purchases (we do not receive card numbers)

We do not collect precise location; we do not track for advertising; we do not access contacts, photos, microphone, or camera.
If you contact us for support, we may receive the information you choose to share (e.g., your email and message content).

1. Why we collect it (lawful purposes)
   We process the above data to:
   Operate and secure the app (diagnostics, fraud/abuse prevention)
   Measure performance and fix bugs
   Improve design and balance (e.g., feature usage and progression funnels)
   Preserve your progress across devices (when linked) via Cloud Save
   Validate purchases and deliver content (via Unity IAP + Cloud Code)
   Deliver configuration updates (e.g., tuning/balance) via Remote Config
   Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms
   Legal bases (where applicable): our legitimate interests in running and improving the service; consent where required by platform or law (e.g., analytics toggles); and legal obligation where necessary.

2. How long we keep it
   We retain data only as long as needed for the purposes above, then delete or aggregate it.
   Crash/diagnostics: ≤ 12 months
   Event analytics: ≤ 24 months (aggregated thereafter)
   Cloud Save game progress: retained while your account/installation remains active and deleted upon verified request or account deletion (see §6)

3. Sharing and third parties
   We use service providers (“processors”) to help us run analytics, crash reporting, authentication, cloud save, remote configuration, purchase validation, and hosting. These providers process data only on our instructions and under contracts that protect your data. We do not sell your data or share it with third parties for their independent marketing or advertising.

4. Children’s privacy

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children below these ages. If you believe a child has provided data, please contact us and we will delete it.
