PRIVACY POLICY FOR MOBILE APPLICATIONS BY FATIH BECEREN
1. INTRODUCTION & IDENTITY OF THE DATA CONTROLLER
1. INTRODUCTION & IDENTITY OF THE DATA CONTROLLER
Welcome to the Privacy Policy for mobile applications and games developed and published by Fatih Beceren. This Privacy Policy governs all mobile applications, games, and related services (collectively, the "Services" or "Applications") owned, developed, published, and operated by Fatih Beceren, a sole proprietorship (şahıs şirketi) registered and operating under the laws of the Republic of Türkiye (hereinafter referred to as "the Developer", "we", "us", or "our").
By downloading, installing, accessing, or using any of our Applications available on the Apple App Store, you explicitly acknowledge, understand, and agree to be bound by all the terms, conditions, and data practices outlined in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, you must immediately cease using the Services and uninstall the Applications from your devices.
2. SCOPE OF THIS POLICY
This is a unified, omnibus Privacy Policy designed to cover all existing, past, and future mobile applications published under the Apple App Store Developer Account of Fatih Beceren. Individual applications do not need to be named herein; this policy applies universally to any software asset released under the Developer's official account.
3. DATA MINIMIZATION & TYPES OF DATA COLLECTED
The Developer operates strictly under the principle of data minimization. We do not maintain user accounts, and we do not directly collect, harvest, store, or possess any "Personally Identifiable Information" (PII)—such as your real name, physical address, phone number, national identity number, or financial credentials—during your standard interaction with our games.
However, to facilitate gameplay, optimize performance, and monetize our free-to-play services, certain technical, non-personal, and pseudonymous data are automatically processed through embedded third-party software development kits (SDKs):
Technical & Device Information: This includes your device hardware model, operating system version, device language settings, time zone, IP address, network connection type, and unique device identifiers (specifically the IDFA - Identifier for Advertisers on iOS devices).
Gameplay and Telemetry Data: This includes internal game state records, high scores, levels unlocked, in-game purchases (processed securely via Apple), session duration, and crash logs or performance diagnostic data.
4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES & LIABILITY SHIFT
Our Applications utilize trusted, industry-standard third-party service providers for analytics, advertising, and platform services. These third parties act as independent data controllers and process your data according to their own respective privacy policies.
The Developer explicitly disclaims any and all liability for data breaches, data mishandling, or unlawful processing executed by these third-party entities. These services may include, but are not limited to:
Apple App Store & Game Center: Governs app distribution, authentication, cloud saves, achievements, leaderboards, and processing of in-app purchases. (Apple Privacy Policy)
Advertising Networks (e.g., Google AdMob, Unity Ads): Utilized to serve contextual or personalized advertisements. These networks may track your IDFA to target ads based on your interests.
Analytics and Diagnostics (e.g., Google Firebase, Unity Analytics): Used to evaluate how players interact with our games, monitor crash rates, and improve overall software stability.
We strongly encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party platforms to understand how they manage your data.
5. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY & COPPA COMPLIANCE
The Developer is fully compliant with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and equivalent global regulations. Our Services are intended for a general, all-ages audience. We do not knowingly target, solicit, or collect personal data from children under the age of 13 (or the applicable statutory age in the user’s jurisdiction).
If a parent or legal guardian discovers that their child has provided personal information to us (such as sending a support email), please contact us immediately at fatihbcrn@hotmail.com. Upon verification, we will take immediate steps to permanently purge such data from our records.
6. LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING (GDPR & CCPA COMPLIANCE)
If you reside within the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or jurisdictions like California, your data rights are heavily protected:
Consent: For personalized advertising, we rely on your explicit consent requested via the iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt.
Legitimate Interest: For analytics, bug reporting, and anti-cheat tracking, data processing is necessary to maintain, secure, and improve the functional integrity of our games.
7. USER RIGHTS & HOW TO CONTROL YOUR DATA
You possess total autonomy over your hardware and data tracking. You can exercise your rights through the following native mechanisms:
Opting Out of Ad Tracking: You can revoke or deny permission for applications to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites by navigating to Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking on your iOS device.
Data Erasure Requests: Because we do not store player profiles on dedicated external servers, we have no personal datasets to delete. However, if you have interacted with us via email, you have the right to request the complete deletion of our email correspondence.
8. SECURITY OF DATA
While we do not host personal databases, we take reasonable administrative measures to secure any technical logs or emails we receive. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, the Developer cannot guarantee its absolute security.
9. STRICT LIMITATION OF LIABILITY & DISCLAIMER
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DEVELOPER (FATIH BECEREN) BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM (I) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES; (II) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICES; OR (III) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT.
10. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
This Privacy Policy, its interpretation, and any legal disputes or claims arising out of or in connection with the use of our Applications shall be governed by and construed solely in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding arising under this policy shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in Turkey.
11. AMENDMENTS TO THIS POLICY
The Developer reserves the right to amend, update, or revise this Privacy Policy at any discretion, at any time, without prior notice. Any modifications will become legally effective immediately upon being posted on this active webpage. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the date of the latest modification. Your continued use of the Applications following the posting of changes constitutes your binding acceptance of those changes.
