This policy describes the privacy practices of the "Random Hero" app (the "App").
Privacy Principles
- Random Hero has no sign-up or login and never asks for or collects any personal identifiers such as your name, email, or phone number.
- Game progress is stored only on your device and is never sent to the developer's servers.
1. Information We Collect
The 'Random Hero' app itself does not directly collect personal information. Game progress — level, experience, current/best stage, gold, permanent upgrades, run records, and sound/speed settings — is stored locally on your device only.
However, the following may be automatically collected and processed through our advertising service (Google AdMob):
- Advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Advertising ID on Android)
- Device information and approximate location
- App usage data (ad interactions)
- Diagnostic data (performance, error logs)
■ Gameplay statistics (Firebase Analytics)
We collect anonymous gameplay statistics to improve the service. We do not collect information that could identify you (name, email, phone number), and because the app has no sign-up or login, no personal identifiers exist to collect in the first place.
What is collected
- Progress: highest chapter reached, highest floor reached (as a range), number of heroes owned (as a range), account level
- Activity: chapter clears and failures with the floor you failed on, hero draw results by rarity and whether they were duplicates, dungeon entries, and where an ad was watched
- Collected automatically by Firebase: app version, device model, OS version, country, and app instance identifier
Purpose
- To see where players struggle so we can tune the game's difficulty
■ Crash information (Firebase Crashlytics)
If the app terminates unexpectedly, we collect the following to diagnose the cause.
- Where the error occurred (stack trace), device model, OS version, app version
No personally identifiable information is included.
2. Purpose of Use
The data collected or processed is used solely for:
- Saving your game progress (on-device)
- Serving, personalizing, and measuring advertisements
- Analyzing anonymous usage statistics to improve the service, such as tuning difficulty
- Diagnosing crashes and improving stability
3. Data Retention & Storage
Game progress is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to external servers. There is no cloud backup or account sync. Uninstalling the app removes all game data stored on the device, and since the developer operates no backup server, deleted data cannot be recovered. The analytics and crash information described in Section 1 is collected anonymously and cannot be deleted for a specific user.
4. Device Permissions
The app does not request device permissions such as location, contacts, photos, microphone, or camera. It uses internet access only.
•Internet: Used to load advertisements and to send anonymous usage statistics and crash information. (The game itself is playable offline.)
5. Third-Party Services
The app uses the following third-party services, all provided by Google LLC.
•Google AdMob — ad delivery and measurement•Firebase Analytics — gameplay statistics•Firebase Crashlytics — crash diagnosticsThat processing is governed by Google's policies.
•Google Ads policy: policies.google.com/technologies/ads•Google Privacy Policy: policies.google.com/privacy6. iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT) & Advertising ID
■ Personalized ads consent (EEA, UK, Switzerland)
Players in those regions see a consent dialog about data processing when the app first launches. Personalized or non-personalized ads are served depending on your choice.
You can change your consent at any time — in-game "Help" screen → "Ad privacy settings".
■ iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT)
On iOS, the app shows an App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission request. If you decline tracking, you will be served non-personalized ads instead of personalized ones.
■ Advertising identifier
You can reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalized ads at any time in your device settings:
- iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking
- Android: Settings > Google > Ads (reset or delete your advertising ID)
7. Children's Privacy
This app is a general-audience game that does not specifically target children under 13, and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
8. In-App Purchases
Random Hero has no in-app purchases, and no sign-up or login. The third-party SDKs bundled in the app are the three listed in Section 5 (Google AdMob, Firebase Analytics, Firebase Crashlytics), and they collect nothing beyond what Section 1 describes.
9. Policy Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Significant changes will be announced in the app or on this page in advance.
