This Privacy Policy describes how Guillermo Lechuga (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the GuessWhat: Party Charades mobile application (the “App”).
1. Information collection and use
GuessWhat: Party Charades is designed with privacy in mind.
Personal data: we do not require you to create an account or provide personal information (such as your name, email, or phone number) to play the game.
Data collected automatically: when you use the App, we and our third-party service providers (listed below) may automatically collect:
- Device identifiers, such as the advertising identifier (IDFA) if you allow tracking, or other device-level identifiers.
- Approximate location, derived from your IP address (not your precise GPS location).
- Usage data, such as which card decks are most popular, game duration, app interactions, and information about the ads shown to you.
- Purchase information, such as anonymous transaction identifiers and the decks you have unlocked.
- Diagnostic data, such as crash logs, app launch time, and performance data.
We do not collect your name, email address, contacts, photos, or precise location.
2. Advertising
The free version of the App displays ads provided by Google AdMob. Ads are not shown to users who have purchased full access. Ads shown in the App are filtered to content suitable for a family audience (parental guidance level at most).
- Consent. Where required by law (for example, in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom), we ask for your consent before showing personalized ads, using Google’s consent management platform (User Messaging Platform).
- App Tracking Transparency. On iOS, the App asks for your permission before accessing the advertising identifier for tracking. If you decline, you can still play for free; you may see less relevant ads.
- Privacy settings in the App. If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you can review or withdraw your consent for ads at any time in the App under Options → Privacy settings.
- Change the tracking permission at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- You can limit ad personalization in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Apple Advertising, and in your Google account at adssettings.google.com.
- Purchasing full access removes all ads.
3. Third-party services
The App uses third-party services that may collect information used to identify you or your device:
- Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK: to show ads and measure their performance. It may use your device identifier, IP address, and ad interaction data. See Google’s Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps.
- Google User Messaging Platform: to collect and store your consent choices.
- Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics (Google): to understand how the App is used, and to detect and fix crashes and performance issues. See Firebase’s privacy information.
- RevenueCat: to manage and validate your in-app purchases. RevenueCat does not collect your name or contact info; it uses anonymous identifiers and transaction data so that your purchased decks are available on your device. See RevenueCat’s Privacy Policy.
- Apple In-App Purchases / App Store: to process purchases of card decks. Please refer to Apple’s Privacy Policy for more details.
Some of this data may be used for tracking, which means linking data collected in the App with data from other companies’ apps and websites for targeted advertising or ad measurement. This only happens if you allow it through the iOS tracking permission.
4. Data retention
We do not run our own servers and we do not store personal data ourselves. Your game progress and purchases are stored locally on your device and synced via your Apple ID. Data collected by the third-party services listed above is retained by those providers according to their own privacy policies.
5. Children’s privacy
Our App is intended for a general audience. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Ads shown in the App are filtered to content suitable for a family audience (parental guidance level at most). If you are a parent and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
6. Your rights
Under regulations like GDPR (Europe/UK) or CCPA (California), you have the right to access, delete, or limit the use of your data, to withdraw your consent, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of your data for advertising. The data described above is processed by our third-party providers rather than stored by us, so these rights are exercised mainly through your device settings (see “Advertising” above), your Apple ID, and the providers’ own tools. You can also contact us and we will help with any request.
7. Changes to this policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date.
