Kestrel Raid

Privacy Policy

Alper Ulusoy ("we", "us", or "our") operates the Kestrel Raid mobile application. This policy explains how information is handled when you use the app.

Information handled by the app

We do not require an account and do not directly ask for your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, camera, or microphone. Game progress, settings, scores, and achievements are stored locally on your device.

Advertising and third-party services

Kestrel Raid uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. Google Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect or process data such as:

• Device identifiers
• Coarse location inferred from signals such as the IP address
• Advertising data and ad interactions
• Product interaction and usage data
• Crash logs and performance diagnostics

This information may be used for third-party advertising, analytics, app functionality, fraud prevention, security, and measuring ad performance. Some of it may be linked to your device.

Kestrel Raid does not track you. Data collected through the app is not linked with third-party data for advertising purposes and is not shared with data brokers. Advertisements shown in Kestrel Raid are contextual and non-personalised.

How the advertising identifier is handled differs by platform:

• iOS: the app does not use Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework and never asks for permission to track, so the advertising identifier (IDFA) is never available to the app or to the Google Mobile Ads SDK inside it.
• Android: the Google Mobile Ads SDK reads the device's resettable Advertising ID (AAID) to request an ad, to limit how often the same ad is repeated, and to detect invalid traffic. That identifier is processed by Google as an independent controller; we never receive or store it. You can reset it, or turn off ad personalisation, under Settings → Google → Ads on your device.

For details, see the Google Privacy Policy and Google Advertising Policies.

Your choices

Because the app does not track you, there is no tracking permission to grant or revoke: Kestrel Raid will never appear in iOS Settings under Privacy & Security → Tracking. On Android you can reset or delete the Advertising ID, and opt out of ad personalisation, under Settings → Google → Ads. You can also manage personalised advertising through your Google advertising settings on either platform.

Data retention

Locally stored game data remains on your device until the app or its data is removed. Data processed by Google is subject to Google's privacy and retention practices.

Children's privacy

Kestrel Raid is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised date.
