Privacy Policy — AbyssalFall

Last updated: 2026-05-02

Developer: Jotad Labs

Overview

AbyssalFall (“the App”) is a mobile game developed by Jotad Labs. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about the data we collect.

In short: Your game data stays on your device. We collect minimal data, and only with your consent.

Data We Collect

Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is stored only on your device and never transmitted to our servers:

  • Game progress: Depth reached, implants collected, Signal fragments found, upgrades unlocked
  • Settings: Audio volume, language preference, accessibility options
  • Purchase records: Which upgrades and other purchases you have made (verified by the platform store)
  • Gameplay statistics: Play time, sessions played, dives completed, depth materials gathered

This data is stored in the app’s sandboxed storage and is deleted when you uninstall the app.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

The free version of AbyssalFall displays ads provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect:

  • Advertising ID (with your consent)
  • Device information (model, OS version)
  • IP address (for geographic ad targeting)
  • App interaction data (ad impressions, clicks)

You can choose:

  • Personalized ads: AdMob uses your advertising ID to show relevant ads. Requires your consent.
  • Non-personalized ads: No tracking. Ads are based only on general context (game category, region).

GDPR / EU Consent: For users in the EU/EEA, we use the Google User Messaging Platform (UMP) SDK to collect consent before any ad is loaded. The UMP form is shown automatically on first launch. If you decline, only non-personalized ads are served.

iOS App Tracking Transparency (ATT): ATT consent is collected as part of the Google UMP CMP consent form. Users can manage tracking preferences via Settings > Privacy > Tracking.

For more information, see the Google AdMob Privacy Policy.

Analytics (Firebase Analytics)

If you consent, we collect anonymous usage data via Firebase Analytics (by Google LLC):

  • Level completion/failure rates
  • Session duration
  • Purchase events (product ID only, no payment details)
  • OS name and locale

Analytics data is anonymized and used solely to improve game balance and fix bugs. It is never sold or shared with third parties for advertising purposes. For more information, see the Firebase Privacy Policy.

Analytics is disabled by default. You must explicitly opt in via the consent dialog on first launch.

Crash Reporting (Firebase Crashlytics)

To improve stability, the app captures crash reports using Firebase Crashlytics (by Google LLC). When a crash occurs, Crashlytics may collect:

  • Crash stack trace and error message
  • Device information (model, OS version, available memory)
  • App version at the time of the crash

This data is transmitted to Google’s servers when a crash occurs. It is used solely to identify and fix bugs, is not linked to your identity, and is not shared with third parties for advertising. For more information, see the Firebase Privacy Policy.

Data We Do NOT Collect

  • ❌ Your name, email, or any personal contact information
  • ❌ Your location (GPS, Wi-Fi, or cell tower)
  • ❌ Your photos, files, or device contents
  • ❌ Your contacts or call history
  • ❌ Microphone or camera data
  • ❌ Biometric data
  • ❌ Financial information (handled by App Store / Play Store)

In-App Purchases

Purchase transactions are handled entirely by Apple App Store or Google Play Store. We do not collect or store payment information.

Your Rights

  • Opt out of analytics: Decline the consent dialog on first launch. When opted out, no events are transmitted.
  • Delete data: Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data.

Children’s Privacy
