Glyph Runner ("the Game") is an arcade game for Android developed by matabuba ("we", "us"). This policy explains what data the Game handles and how. It is written to match the Data safety declaration shown on the Game's Google Play store listing.
We do not run our own servers, and we never receive your data ourselves. The Game contains no advertising, no third-party analytics SDK and no in-app purchases. However, the Game uses Google Play Games Services for sign-in and online leaderboards, and that Google service does collect and transmit data from your device. That collection is described below.
The following data is collected by Google Play Games Services and transmitted off your device to Google. It is shared with Google as a third party, and it is processed according to the Google Privacy Policy.
| Data type | What it is | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Device or other IDs | Device identifiers used by Google Play services, such as the Android ID, to identify the device to the Play Games service. | App functionality, analytics |
| User IDs | Your Google Play Games player ID. | App functionality — identifying you on the leaderboard |
| Name | Your Play Games display name (gamertag) and avatar. | App functionality — showing who holds each leaderboard place |
| App interactions | Your best Arena score, submitted to the Google-hosted leaderboard. | App functionality — the leaderboard itself |
| Crash logs and diagnostics | Crash and performance information generated by Google Play services. | Analytics — diagnosing faults and improving stability |
This collection is required: it happens whenever Google Play Games Services is active in the Game, and it cannot be switched off inside the Game.
Your leaderboard entry — your display name and your score — is visible to other players of the Game. No other data listed above is shown to anyone else.
We do not collect your email address, phone number, contacts, photos, files, messages,
precise or approximate location, or payment information. The Game requests only the
INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permissions. It does not use
the Advertising ID and contains no advertising SDK.
Game progress — high scores, unlocked symbols, chosen theme, orientation and sound settings — is stored locally on your device only and is never transmitted. Uninstalling the Game deletes it.
Data collected through Google Play Games Services is held by Google. You can review and delete your Play Games data, including your player profile and your scores in this Game, from your Google Play Games profile, or through your Google Account. We hold no copy of it, so there is nothing for us to delete on our side.
All data described above is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS) by Google Play services.
The Game contains no ads, no chat and no in-app purchases. It is not directed at children. The data described above is collected by Google Play Games Services from any user who plays the Game.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be published at this same address with a new "Last updated" date.
