This Privacy Policy explains how Kangsium ("we", "us") handles information when you use Color Match Tap (the "App"). We've tried to write this in plain language. If anything is unclear, contact us at jason@kangsium.com.
At a glance
•
No account, no signup. The App has no login.
•
No personal info collected by us. We don't ask for your name, email, phone, or contacts.
•
Your scores stay on your device. Best scores, theme unlocks, and settings are saved only in local storage on your phone.
•
The App shows ads via Google AdMob. AdMob uses device-level identifiers like your Advertising ID to serve ads. You can reset that ID in your Android settings at any time.
•
A consent prompt appears on first launch in the EU/UK/EEA so you can choose between personalized and non-personalized ads.
What data we handle
Data type | Source | Purpose | Shared with | Retention |
Advertising ID | Google AdMob SDK | Show ads, measure ad performance, prevent fraud | Google and AdMob partners | Per Google's defaults; you can reset anytime in Android settings |
IP address | Google AdMob SDK | Ad delivery, approximate region for regulatory compliance | Google and AdMob partners | Per Google's defaults |
Approximate location (derived from IP) | Google AdMob SDK | Region-appropriate ads, compliance with regional ad rules | Google and AdMob partners | Per Google's defaults |
Device info (model, OS version, language, app version) | Google AdMob SDK | Ad serving and diagnostics | Google and AdMob partners | Per Google's defaults |
Ad interactions (impressions, clicks, rewarded-ad completions) | Google AdMob SDK | Ad measurement and revenue attribution | Google | Per Google's defaults |
Best scores, selected theme, theme unlocks, sound/haptics settings | The App (local storage) | Save your progress and preferences | Nobody — never leaves the device | Until you reset (Settings → Reset best scores) or uninstall the App |
Note on "anonymous" identifiers: the Advertising ID is still considered personal data under GDPR even though we never see your name or email. We treat it accordingly.
Why we handle it
We use this data only for the purposes listed in the table above:
•
Operating the App's core features (saving your scores and preferences)
•
Showing advertisements that help keep the App free
We do not sell your personal information.
Who we share data with
The only third party that receives data from the App is:
•
Google LLC (AdMob) — Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. AdMob's partner list: https://support.google.com/admob/answer/9012903.
We use no analytics provider, no crash-reporting service, no marketing or attribution SDKs, and no social-login providers.
Your data, your control
You can:
•
Delete all locally-stored App data — in the App: Settings → Reset best scores. Uninstalling the App also removes everything we store on your device.
•
Reset or delete your Advertising ID — Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads → Reset/Delete advertising ID. Disabling personalization there will also force AdMob to serve non-personalized ads.
•
Change your ad consent — close and reopen the App; the consent form can be re-triggered from your device's region settings or by contacting us.
•
How long we keep data
•
App data on your device: until you reset it in-app or uninstall.
•
Where data is stored
Local App data lives on your device only. AdMob data is processed and stored on Google's infrastructure (primarily in the United States and other regions Google operates).
For users in the EU, UK, or Switzerland (GDPR / UK DPA)
Our legal bases for processing:
•
Contract — saving your scores and settings so the App works for you
•
Consent — personalized advertising (the in-app consent prompt provided via Google's User Messaging Platform)
•
Legitimate interest — non-personalized ad delivery and fraud prevention
You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, port, and to object. Contact jason@kangsium.com. You may also lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.
International transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses as published by Google.
For California residents (CCPA / CPRA)
You have the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of "sale" or "sharing" of personal information.
We do not sell personal information in the traditional sense, but personalized advertising via AdMob may qualify as "sharing" under the CPRA. Opt out by (a) declining the in-app consent prompt where shown, and (b) resetting or disabling your Advertising ID in Android settings.
Children's privacy
The App is not directed to children under 13 (under 16 in the EU/UK). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Contact jason@kangsium.com if you believe a child has provided personal information and we will delete it.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS) by Google's AdMob SDK. App data stored on your device is protected by the standard Android sandboxing model.
Changes to this policy
Material changes will be announced inside the App. The "Last updated" date at the top of this document will reflect the change.
