This privacy policy explains how Car Arena: Smash Royale (the "Game"), made by ZBD Lab ("we", "us"), handles information when you play. By installing or playing the Game, you agree to this policy.
1. Information we collect ourselves
We do not ask for your real name, email address, phone number, location, contacts or photos. We do not have our own servers for the Game.
The following is saved only on your device:
- The player nickname you type in the Game
- Game progress: levels, stars, coins, gems, cars, paints, settings and rewards
This data stays on your phone. It is deleted when you uninstall the Game or clear its data.
2. Third-party services
The Game uses the following Google services. They may collect information from your device as described in their own privacy policies:
| Service | Why we use it | Data it may collect |
|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob | Showing ads (banner, interstitial and rewarded videos) | Advertising ID, device and app information, IP address, approximate location (from IP), ad interactions |
| Google Play Billing | In-app purchases (coins, gems, remove ads, offers) | Purchase details. Payments are handled by Google. We never see or store your card or payment details. |
| Google Firebase (Analytics, Crashlytics) | Understanding how the Game is played and fixing crashes | App usage events, device model, OS version, crash logs, app instance ID |
| Google Play Games Services (if you sign in) | Saving your progress to the cloud | Your Play Games player ID and saved game data |
3. Ads and your choices
- Ads may be personalised based on your Advertising ID. Where required by law (for example in the EEA, UK and some US states), the Game asks for your consent first.
- You can reset your Advertising ID or turn off personalised ads in your phone settings: Settings → Google → Ads (or Settings → Privacy → Ads).
- Rewarded videos are always optional. You choose when to watch one.
- You can remove forced ads with the "No Ads" in-app purchase.
4. How we use information
- To run the Game and save your progress
- To show ads that keep the Game free
- To process purchases and give you the items you bought
- To find and fix bugs and improve the Game
We do not sell your personal information.
5. Children
The Game is intended for players aged 13 and older. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has given us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
6. Data security and retention
Game data is kept on your device for as long as the Game is installed. Data held by Google services is kept according to their own retention rules. Data sent to those services is encrypted in transit.
7. Deleting your data
- Uninstall the Game, or go to Settings → Apps → Car Arena → Storage → Clear data, to delete all game data on your device.
- To delete cloud-saved progress, remove the Game from your Play Games account, or email us and we will help.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the Game changes. The new version will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
