Summary
Hold The Line is a single-player mobile game. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask you to provide your name, email address, or other direct contact information to play.
The App stores limited gameplay data on your device, such as your selected game mode and best scores. The App also uses Google AdMob to display ads. Google and its partners may collect certain device and usage data to serve, measure, and improve ads, as described below.
Information We Collect
Information stored on your device
The App stores limited gameplay information locally on your device using on-device storage. This may include:
- Your selected game mode
- Your best scores
- Basic app state needed to restore your profile and progress
We use this information only to support gameplay and preserve your progress on your device.
Information collected by advertising services
The App uses Google AdMob to display ads. AdMob and its partners may collect information such as:
- Device identifiers, including the advertising identifier when available
- IP address
- Approximate location derived from IP address
- Advertising data, such as ads viewed
- Usage data, such as app launches, taps, and ad interactions
- Diagnostic and performance data, such as crash information and app performance metrics
This information may be used to provide ads, limit fraud, measure ad performance, and, if you allow tracking on iOS, deliver more relevant advertising.
For more information about how Google handles data, see Google Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Tracking and App Tracking Transparency
On iOS, the App may request permission to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies. If you grant permission, the App and its advertising partners may use your device's advertising identifier and related data for personalized advertising and measurement.
If you deny permission, tracking for that purpose should not occur through Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework, although non-personalized ads may still be shown.
You can change your tracking choice at any time in your device settings.
How We Use Information
- Operate the game
- Save your local game progress and settings
- Show ads
- Measure and improve app stability, performance, and ad delivery
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms
Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense of directly exchanging it for money.
We may share information with third-party service providers that help operate the App, including advertising and analytics providers such as Google AdMob. Those providers may process information under their own privacy terms and legal obligations.
We may also disclose information:
- If required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request
- To protect the rights, safety, and security of users, the App, or others
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets
Data Retention
Gameplay data stored locally on your device remains on your device until you delete the App or clear the App's data.
Data collected by third-party providers, such as Google AdMob, is retained according to those providers' own retention policies.
Your Choices
Depending on your device and location, you may be able to:
- Decline tracking permission on iOS
- Reset or limit your advertising identifier through device settings
- Delete the App to remove locally stored gameplay data from your device
You may also be able to control ad personalization through your Google and device privacy settings.
Children's Privacy
Hold The Line is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us and we will review the request.
If you intend to classify the App as child-directed or "Made for Kids," this policy and the ad setup should be reviewed again before release.
International Users
Your information may be processed by third-party providers in countries other than your own. Those countries may have different data protection laws than the laws where you live.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and may provide additional notice where required.
