Privacy Policy
Effective date: April 12, 2026
VanSquared (“we”, “us”, or “our”) builds mobile applications for iOS and Android. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use any mobile app published by VanSquared. By downloading or using one of our apps, you agree to the practices described here.
1. Information We Collect
We collect only the information necessary to provide and improve our apps.
Information you provide
- Account details (e.g. display name, email address) when you register or sign in.
- Content you create or submit within the app (e.g. game progress, user-generated entries).
Information collected automatically
- Device type, operating system version, and app version.
- Crash reports and error logs to help us fix bugs.
- Aggregate, anonymised usage statistics (e.g. feature usage frequency).
2. How We Use Your Information
- To operate and deliver the features of our apps.
- To authenticate your account and keep it secure.
- To diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and improve performance.
- To respond to support requests you send us.
- To comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal data to third parties, and we do not use it to serve you targeted advertisements.
3. Sharing of Information
We share data only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers — trusted infrastructure providers (e.g. Firebase/Google Cloud) that process data on our behalf under strict confidentiality agreements.
- Legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of users or the public.
- Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, user data may transfer to the successor entity subject to the same protections.
4. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide our services. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us (see Section 9). We will delete or anonymise your data within 30 days of a verified request, unless retention is required by law.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our apps are not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
6. Security
We implement industry-standard security measures — including encrypted data transmission (TLS) and secure cloud storage — to protect your information. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable steps to safeguard your data.
7. Third-Party Services
Some of our apps integrate third-party SDKs or services (e.g. Firebase). These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern how they handle data. We encourage you to review those policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. For significant changes, we will provide in-app notice or notify you by email. Continued use of our apps after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
