1. Information Collected and Processed

To provide gameplay functionality, global leaderboards, seasonal division rankings, and achievement tracking, the Game processes the following categories of data:

  • Apple Game Center: On iOS, if you sign in to Game Center, the Game receives your authenticated player identifier and public player alias to record scores and unlock Game Center achievements.
  • Google Play Games: On Android, if you sign in to Google Play Games, the Game receives your player ID and display name to record scores and unlock Play Games achievements.

B. Gameplay & Score Records

  • Run statistics including score, moves count, run duration, and highest tile reached.
  • Competitive run metadata submitted to verify score validity for global and seasonal leaderboard rankings.
