This Privacy Policy explains how Jester's Circus collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the game. This policy is intended to inform users worldwide, including users in the European Union, the United Kingdom, the United States, and other regions where privacy laws may apply.
By installing, opening, or using Jester's Circus, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the game.
Jester's Circus is not intended for children under 13 years of age, or under the minimum age required by local law in your region. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children below the applicable minimum age.
If you believe that a child has provided information through the game, please contact us at bubblegumdev@gmail.com so we can review the request and take appropriate action.
Depending on your device, region, permissions, game version, and how you use Jester's Circus, we and our service providers may collect the following categories of information:
- Usage and analytics data: app launches, session count, session length, gameplay events, feature usage, level progress, button interactions, and general in-game activity.
- Device and technical data: device model, operating system version, Android version, language, app version, time zone, screen characteristics, user agent, crash logs, diagnostics, and similar technical identifiers.
- Advertising and attribution data: Google Advertising ID (GAID), install attribution information, campaign information, traffic source, generated install identifiers, and app instance identifiers where analytics, attribution, or advertising features are used.
- Network data: IP address, connection information, and approximate location inferred from IP address.
- Push notification data: push subscription status, notification token, notification delivery status, and notification open events if notifications are enabled or supported.
- Support request data: email address, message content, and any information you include when you contact us directly.
Information may be collected:
- Directly from your device when you install, open, update, or use the game.
- Automatically through integrated third-party SDKs, platform services, analytics tools, attribution tools, notification services, crash reporting tools, or advertising services.
- From attribution and analytics partners that help us understand installs, campaign performance, game usage, and technical stability.
- Directly from you when you send us an email or submit a privacy-related request.
We use collected information for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve Jester's Circus.
- To understand how often the game is installed, launched, and used.
- To measure session length, level performance, gameplay balance, and other analytics that help improve user experience.
- To detect crashes, technical problems, errors, fraud, abuse, and security issues.
- To send push notifications if notifications are enabled on your device.
- To measure marketing performance, install attribution, traffic sources, and campaign effectiveness.
- To personalize or measure advertising if advertising features are enabled in the game.
- To respond to support, privacy, deletion, or legal requests.
- To comply with legal obligations where required.
Jester's Circus may use third-party providers that process information on our behalf or for their own service delivery purposes, depending on the features enabled in the game:
- Firebase or Google services for analytics, crash reporting, diagnostics, and related app measurement features.
- OneSignal or similar notification services for push notifications and notification analytics.
- AppsFlyer or similar attribution services for install attribution, campaign performance measurement, and user acquisition analytics.
- Advertising networks, such as Google AdMob or similar services, if advertisements are shown in the game.
These providers may receive information such as IP address, device information, GAID, user agent, generated install identifiers, app events, crash data, diagnostics, campaign data, and notification-related data as applicable.
We may also disclose information if required by law, to respond to lawful requests, to enforce our rights, to protect users or the game, or as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or asset sale.
Where required by applicable law, including in the EU, EEA, and UK, we process information based on one or more of the following legal bases:
- Our legitimate interests in operating, improving, securing, analyzing, and promoting the game.
- Your consent, where consent is required by law, such as for certain notification, analytics, advertising, or tracking-related activities.
- Performance of a contract where processing is necessary to provide the game or requested features.
- Compliance with legal obligations.
If you allow notifications on your device, Jester's Circus may use OneSignal or similar services to send push notifications. Notifications may include game updates, reminders, events, rewards, promotional messages, or service-related notices.
You can disable notifications at any time in your Android device settings. Disabling notifications does not affect your ability to play the game.
The game may use advertising identifiers such as Google Advertising ID (GAID) for analytics, attribution, marketing measurement, fraud prevention, and advertising-related purposes where such features are enabled.
Depending on your Android version, device settings, and region, you may be able to reset your advertising ID, delete your advertising ID, limit ad personalization, or manage app tracking and notification permissions in your device settings.
We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including game operation, analytics, attribution, advertising measurement, security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, support, and recordkeeping.
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data, operational needs, legal requirements, and practices of our third-party service providers. Aggregated or anonymized data may be retained for longer periods if it no longer identifies a specific user or device.
Jester's Circus may be available worldwide. Information may be processed and stored in countries other than your own, including countries that may have data protection laws different from those in your jurisdiction.
Where required by applicable law, we rely on appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers, such as contractual protections, service provider commitments, or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms.
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to:
- Request access to personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Request deletion of personal data, subject to legal, security, and operational exceptions.
- Object to or restrict certain processing in some circumstances.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- Appeal or complain to a data protection authority where applicable.
Because much of the data may be processed by third-party SDK providers using device-level identifiers, some requests may need to be fulfilled through those providers or may depend on identifiers available to us. To submit a request, contact bubblegumdev@gmail.com.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the applicable minimum age. If we learn that information has been collected from a child in a way that requires parental consent or violates applicable law, we will take reasonable steps to delete or limit that information.
Parents or guardians may contact us at bubblegumdev@gmail.com to request review or deletion of information related to a child.
We take reasonable steps to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These steps may include access controls, transport security, service provider controls, and limitation of data access to operational needs.
However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. However, some analytics, attribution, notification, and advertising-related disclosures to service providers or advertising partners may be considered sharing, targeted advertising, cross-context behavioral advertising, or similar processing under certain privacy laws.
You may contact us at bubblegumdev@gmail.com to submit a privacy request. You can also manage advertising identifier and ad personalization choices through Android device settings where available.
You may request deletion of personal data associated with Jester's Circus by contacting us at bubblegumdev@gmail.com. Please include the game name, package name, your region, and any relevant identifiers that may help us locate data, such as app instance ID, support ticket details, or device-level identifiers where available.
We may need to verify your request before acting on it. Some information may be retained where necessary for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or where deletion is technically limited because data is held by third-party SDK providers.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised βLast updatedβ date.
Continued use of Jester's Circus after changes become effective means you acknowledge the updated policy. If changes materially affect your rights or the way information is processed, we may provide additional notice where required by law.
