This policy explains what data TapSharp collects, why, and who it is shared with. TapSharp is
operated by [OPERATOR]. If you have questions, contact
[CONTACT EMAIL].
The short version
- There are no accounts. We never ask for your name, email or phone number.
- Your progress — coins, streaks, missions, settings and high scores — is stored only on your device.
- If you submit a score, a randomly generated device ID and the nickname you choose are published to a leaderboard other players can see.
- We show rewarded video ads that you choose to watch. There are no forced ads. Google AdMob collects advertising data to serve them.
- We use Google Analytics for Firebase and Crashlytics to understand how the game is played and to fix crashes.
What we collect
Information you provide
Only a nickname. The game generates one for you (for example
Player4821) and you may change it in the Profile screen. Please do not use your
real name or any personal detail — nicknames are shown publicly on leaderboards.
Information created automatically
| Data | Purpose | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|
Random device identifier (e.g. local_1723...), generated on first launch |
Attributes scores to a device so leaderboards work | Cloud Firestore |
| Score, best combo, accuracy, round duration, which mini-game | Leaderboards and daily challenges | Cloud Firestore |
| Gameplay and economy events (game started/completed, daily challenge completed, ad watched, revive offered/accepted/declined, coins earned/spent, mission and daily reward claimed) | Understanding which games and features are used, and whether the reward system is balanced | Google Analytics for Firebase |
| Crash reports: stack traces, device model, OS version, app state at time of crash | Diagnosing and fixing crashes | Firebase Crashlytics |
| Advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Advertising ID on Android), IP address, device and ad interaction data | Serving and measuring rewarded video ads, and limiting how often you see the same ad | Google AdMob |
Stored only on your device
Coin balance, streak and streak freezes, daily missions and login rewards, unlocked achievements, sound/haptics/theme settings, and your local high scores. This data is never transmitted to us. Deleting the app deletes it permanently — it is not backed up to any account and cannot be restored or transferred to another device.
Advertising
TapSharp shows rewarded video ads only. These are always optional: you choose to watch one to continue a run after losing, to double the coins from a round, or to refresh your daily missions. We do not show banner, interstitial or app-open ads.
Ads are provided by Google AdMob. Google may use the advertising identifier and related data to serve personalised advertising. See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Your choices
- iOS: the first time you finish a game we ask permission to track via Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt. If you decline, you will still see ads, but they will not be personalised. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Android: you can reset or delete your Advertising ID in Settings → Google → Ads.
- EEA, UK and Switzerland: before any ad is requested we show a Google-certified consent form asking whether you agree to personalised advertising. Your choice is stored on your device and respected on every subsequent request.
Who we share data with
We do not sell your data. We do not share it with anyone except the service providers that make the game work:
- Google — Firebase (Firestore, Analytics, Crashlytics) and AdMob: Google Privacy Policy, Firebase Privacy.
Leaderboard entries — nickname and score — are publicly visible to all players inside the app.
Legal basis (EEA/UK)
- Legitimate interest: crash reporting and basic analytics, to keep the game working and improve it.
- Consent: personalised advertising, collected through the consent form described above and withdrawable at any time.
- Performance of a service you requested: publishing a score you chose to submit to a leaderboard.
Retention
Leaderboard entries are retained while the leaderboard exists so historical rankings remain meaningful. Analytics data is retained according to Google's default Firebase retention settings. Crash reports are retained up to 90 days. On-device data lives until you delete the app or clear its storage.
Your rights and how to delete your data
Because there is no account, we have no way to link a leaderboard entry back to you as a person
— the identifier is random and device-generated. To have an entry removed, email
[CONTACT EMAIL] with your nickname and the approximate date and score, and we will
locate and delete it.
Depending on where you live you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to the processing of your data, and to withdraw consent (GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA and similar laws). Contact us at the address above to exercise them.
To remove everything held on your device, delete the app. To stop advertising data collection, use the platform controls listed under Your choices.
Children
TapSharp is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age where you live),
and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has
provided personal information, contact [CONTACT EMAIL] and we will delete it.
Security
Data in transit is encrypted with HTTPS/TLS. Leaderboard data is stored in Google Cloud Firestore under Google's security controls. No system is perfectly secure, so please avoid putting anything sensitive in your nickname.
International transfers
Our service providers process data on servers that may be located outside your country, including in the United States. Google relies on legal transfer mechanisms such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.
Changes
If this policy changes materially we will update the date at the top and, where required, notify you in the app. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
