This Privacy Policy applies to the Remove Arrow game and describes the privacy practices associated with the application.
2. What Stays on Your Device
The game saves certain information locally so that your progress and settings can be preserved when you close and reopen the game.
This information is stored in the game's private app storage on your device. We do not operate a cloud-save system for this information and do not receive your game progress on our own servers.
| Information Stored | Why It Is Stored |
|---|---|
| Coins, lives, current level, and unfinished board progress | To allow the game to continue from where you stopped. |
| Stars earned and unlocked levels | To display your progress on the level screen. |
| Arrow skins and selected appearance settings | To remember your selected game appearance. |
| Completed daily puzzles and challenges | To display your daily challenge and streak progress. |
| Game settings such as sound, reduced motion, large text, game speed, and reminder settings | To make the game behave according to your preferences. |
3. What Leaves Your Device
Remove Arrow does not send your game progress to our own servers. However, the game may communicate with third-party services that are necessary for certain features.
These services may receive technical information from your device when the game requests resources or displays an advertisement.
Fonts and Required Resources
If the game downloads required fonts or other resources from an external service, the request may include your device's IP address and standard technical information associated with an internet request.
These requests are used to provide the resources required for the game to function or display correctly.
Advertising
When advertisements are requested or displayed, the game uses Google AdMob. AdMob may process certain device and advertising-related information as described in the Advertising section of this policy.
4. What We Do Not Collect

- Your name
- Your email address
- Your phone number
- Your date of birth
- Your precise location
- Your contacts
- Your photos
- Your personal files
- Your camera data
- Your microphone recordings
- Your health or fitness information

We do not sell personal information and do not share personal information with data brokers.
5. Advertising
Remove Arrow is offered as a free game and may display advertisements through Google AdMob.
AdMob is a third-party advertising service operated by Google. When an advertisement is requested or displayed, Google may collect and process certain information necessary for advertising, fraud prevention, measurement, and delivery of advertisements.
Depending on the device, region, applicable laws, consent choices, and advertising configuration, information processed by AdMob may include:
- Your device's advertising identifier, where available and permitted
- Your IP address
- Approximate geographic region derived from the IP address
- Device model and operating system information
- Language and app-related technical information
- Information about advertisement requests and interactions
Google may use this information to provide, measure, and improve its advertising services.
Google processes advertising-related information under its own privacy policies and terms. You can learn more about Google's practices in the Google Privacy Policy and Google Advertising Services .
Personalised and Non-Personalised Advertising
Depending on your location and applicable privacy laws, you may be asked to provide consent before personalised advertising is used.
Where consent is required, you may be given the option to accept or decline personalised advertising. If personalised advertising is not authorised, advertisements may be delivered using non-personalised methods.
Advertising and consent practices may vary depending on your country, device, operating system, and applicable regulations.
Managing Advertising Preferences
You may also be able to manage advertising preferences through your device's privacy and advertising settings.
On Android devices, advertising-related controls may be available through the device's Google settings and privacy controls.
On iOS devices, advertising and tracking permissions may be managed through the device's Privacy & Security settings.
6. Children's Privacy
Remove Arrow is designed to be playable by children as well as adults. We take children's privacy seriously.
The game does not require children to create an account, sign in, or submit their name, email address, phone number, or other personal information directly to us.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through our own servers.
Advertising services such as Google AdMob may process technical and advertising-related information as described in the Advertising section. Advertising treatment may vary depending on the user's age, region, applicable law, consent status, and the configuration of the advertising service.
Where child-directed advertising requirements apply, we configure our advertising implementation in accordance with the applicable platform and advertising requirements.
The game does not provide chat, messaging, or user-generated content, reducing opportunities for players to directly disclose personal information to other users.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information directly to us, please contact us at educateworld990@gmail.com .
7. Notifications
Remove Arrow may provide an optional daily reminder to play the daily challenge.
- The reminder is optional.
- It is off by default unless enabled by the user.
- The notification is scheduled locally on your device.
- The game does not require a remote push-notification server for this reminder.
- You can disable the reminder at any time through the game's settings or your device settings.
8. Permissions
The game requests permissions only when they are necessary for specific functions of the application.
| Permission | Platform | Purpose |

9. Legal Bases
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, Switzerland, or another jurisdiction that requires a lawful basis for processing personal information, the applicable legal basis may depend on the specific processing activity.
| Purpose | Potential Legal Basis |
|---|---|
| Saving your progress and settings locally on your device | Legitimate interests in providing the expected functionality of the game. |
| Downloading required resources | Legitimate interests in delivering the intended application experience. |
| Showing non-personalised advertisements | May be based on legitimate interests where permitted by applicable law. |
| Showing personalised advertisements | Consent where consent is required by applicable law. |

10. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights relating to your personal information, including the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or otherwise control certain processing of your information.
Because Remove Arrow does not maintain an account system or store your game progress on our own servers, we generally do not have a personal profile containing your name or other identifying information.
Advertising-related information processed by Google AdMob is handled according to Google's policies and applicable privacy controls.
If you have a privacy question or wish to exercise a privacy right, contact us at:
11. Deleting Your Data
Most locally stored game information can be removed by uninstalling Remove Arrow from your device or clearing the application's data through your device settings, where supported.
Because we do not operate a cloud-save system for your game progress, uninstalling the application generally removes the locally stored progress associated with the application.
Advertising identifiers and advertising preferences are controlled through your device's operating-system privacy and advertising settings.
12. Regional Information
European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland
If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, applicable data protection laws may provide you with additional rights concerning personal information and advertising consent.
Where Google processes advertising information, Google may act as an independent controller for certain processing activities. Google's privacy policy and applicable safeguards govern its processing.
California
We do not sell personal information.
Certain advertising activities carried out by third-party advertising providers may be treated differently under California privacy laws. Where applicable, advertising consent and opt-out mechanisms may be provided through the game, the advertising provider, or your device.
Other Regions
This Privacy Policy applies internationally. If local law provides you with additional privacy rights, those rights remain applicable.
13. Security
Your locally saved game information is stored in the private storage area provided by your device's operating system.
The security of locally stored information therefore also depends on the security of your device, including your device lock, operating system, and security updates.
Because we do not maintain a server-side database containing your game progress, there is no central game-progress database operated by us to protect or breach.
14. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time if the game's features, data practices, advertising configuration, or applicable legal requirements change.
The "Last Updated" date at the beginning of this policy will be updated when material changes are made.
If we introduce a new category of personal information collection or materially change how personal information is handled, we will update this Privacy Policy before or when the new practice becomes applicable, as required by law.
