Privacy Policy

App Name: Hand Cricket - Team Battles
Developer: KM Sanjay

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our mobile game Hand Cricket - Team Battles ("Service").

1. Information We Collect

• Personal Information: When you sign in with Google, we collect your name, email address, and profile photo to create your user profile.
• Optional Location: If enabled, GPS data may be used to display your state, city, and country name to other users. This is optional and not required to use the Service.
• IP Address: Collected during registration to identify approximate location (country/state). Sharing with other users can be disabled, but storage on our servers is required for security and analytics.
• Log Data: In case of errors, we may collect device information, operating system version, app configuration, usage time, and related statistics.
• Cookies: Some third-party services may use cookies to improve functionality and analytics. You can disable cookies, but certain features may not function properly.

2. Why we Collect

We collected these data to:

• Provide and improve gameplay features.
• Enable account creation and multiplayer functionality.
• Ensure fair play, security, and abuse prevention.
• Comply with legal obligations.

3. Sharing of Your Data

We do not share your personal data with advertisers or any other third parties outside of this app.

Because this is a multiplayer game and you have created a public profile, please be aware that other users may be able to see the following information:

• Your name and email address. Your email address is displayed using a basic character-substitution method. When you create a public team battle room, the substituted email address may be visible to other users; elsewhere, only the first 7 characters are displayed, while all characters from the 8th character onward are replaced with "X".
• Your locality, city, and country (you can turn this feature off).
• Your online status and last-seen information (you can turn this feature off).
• Your "About" / bio (you can choose what information to enter).

4. Third-Party Services

The app uses trusted third-party services which may collect data in accordance with their own policies:

• Google Play Services

5. Data Retention & Deletion

• Inactive free-user accounts are temporarily disabled after 30 days of inactivity and permanently deleted after 60 days.
• Users can delete their data anytime through in-app settings or by contacting support.

6. Security

We use commercially reasonable safeguards to protect your data. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children’s Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 18. If you believe your child has provided us personal information, please contact us to request deletion.

8. User Rights (GDPR/CCPA)

Depending on your region, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information. To exercise these rights, please contact us at the email below.

9. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page, and the “Effective Date” will be revised accordingly.

Effective Date: 01 July 2026
