This Privacy Policy describes how Betterman Solutions LLC, doing business as Nodnarb Games ("Nodnarb Games," "we," "us," or "our") handles information for Rivet Rangers.
Information You Provide
Rivet Rangers does not require an account and does not ask you to provide your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, camera, microphone, or precise location. If you contact Nodnarb Games for support or a privacy request, we may receive the information you choose to include in that communication.
Rivet Rangers does not offer in-app purchases. Coins and upgrades are earned only by playing and, optionally, by watching rewarded ads. Coins are used only inside Rivet Rangers and have no cash value.
Information Stored on Your Device
The app stores gameplay information on your device, such as level progress, coin balance, upgrade levels, unlocked squad members, and settings such as sound and vibration, to provide core game functionality. This local gameplay data remains on your device unless you clear the app's data or uninstall the app. Nodnarb Games does not receive this information.
Advertising
Rivet Rangers uses Unity LevelPlay to mediate a banner advertisement and optional rewarded advertisements. Rewarded ads are only shown when you choose to watch one, for example to double the coins earned at the end of a level. The game does not show forced full-screen (interstitial) ads. Participating advertising providers currently include Google Mobile Ads (AdMob), Unity Ads, and ironSource Ads. The app also uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to present and store privacy choices where required.
These services may automatically process information such as:
- Device and advertising identifiers, when permitted;
- IP address and approximate location derived from the IP address;
- Device model, language, operating system, app version, and network information;
- Ad requests, impressions, views, clicks, rewards, and other interactions with ads;
- SDK-generated user IDs or other personal identifiers used by advertising services;
- Consent choices and related privacy signals; and
- Crash, performance, fraud-prevention, and diagnostic information collected by those services.
The information actually processed depends on your region, device settings, privacy choices, and the advertising provider that serves an ad. Nodnarb Games does not receive your name, email address, or precise location from these advertising services.
Rivet Rangers does not use Unity Analytics or other gameplay analytics, and does not include Unity crash reporting.
How We Use Information
Local gameplay information is used to save your progress and support core game features. Advertising and device information may be used to:
- Request, deliver, and display advertisements;
- Personalize ads when you have permitted personalization;
- Deliver non-personalized, contextual, limited, or technical ads when applicable;
- Measure ad performance and apply frequency controls;
- Detect fraud, abuse, and security issues;
- Provide optional in-game rewards after a rewarded ad; and
- Support and maintain the game.
Sharing Information
Information may be processed by Unity and its affiliated services, including Unity LevelPlay, Unity Ads, ironSource Ads, and participating advertising demand partners. Google may process information through Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) as an advertising provider and through UMP for consent and privacy-message services. These companies process information under their own privacy policies and may act as service providers, processors, or independent controllers depending on the service and activity.
For more information, review:
- Unity's Game Player and App User Privacy Policy
- Google's Privacy Policy
- Google's Advertising Technologies information
We may also disclose information when required by law, to respond to valid legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of players, Nodnarb Games, or others.
Sale, Sharing, and Targeted Advertising
Nodnarb Games does not sell personal information for money. Advertising providers may use or disclose device and activity information to deliver or measure personalized advertising when permitted. Some privacy laws may define this activity as "selling," "sharing," or processing for targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged for the information.
Where required, you can opt out or change advertising-related choices through the privacy message displayed by the app or through the in-game Privacy button when it is provided for your region. You may also use your Android device's privacy and advertising controls to delete or reset the advertising ID and manage ad personalization settings.
Advertising and Privacy Choices
In regions where a privacy message is required, Google UMP may present available advertising privacy choices before the app requests ads. When a Privacy button is available in your region, you may use it to revisit those advertising choices.
Declining personalized advertising does not necessarily remove advertisements. Depending on your choices, region, and available advertising inventory, the app may continue showing non-personalized, contextual, limited, or technical ads. These ads may still use limited information for functions such as delivery, frequency controls, aggregate measurement, security, and fraud prevention. If applicable consent or another legal basis is unavailable, the app will not request ads.
Data Retention and Deletion
Gameplay progress stored on your device remains there until you delete the app or clear its data.
Nodnarb Games retains support communications and information available through service dashboards only as long as reasonably necessary for support, security, legal compliance, and operation of the game. Unity, Google, and other service providers retain information according to their own policies and applicable law.
Rivet Rangers does not use player accounts. Depending on the request and information available, Nodnarb Games may not be able to independently identify a particular person in third-party service data. You may contact us for assistance identifying privacy and deletion options that apply to your request. For data controlled independently by an advertising or other third-party provider, you may also need to use that provider's own privacy controls or request mechanism using the links above.
Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards for information handled by the app. Information transmitted to service providers is sent over secure connections where supported. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure.
International Processing
Unity, Google, and their advertising partners may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Those countries may have different data-protection laws. The providers are responsible for using appropriate safeguards where required by applicable law.
Children's Privacy
Rivet Rangers is not directed to children under 13, or under the minimum age required by local law, and Nodnarb Games does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us so we can review the request and take appropriate action.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information; to object to or restrict certain processing; to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent; or to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or sharing. The availability and method for exercising a right depends on applicable law and the services involved.
You may use privacy controls made available in the app, by your device or platform, or by the relevant service provider, and you may contact Nodnarb Games for assistance. You may also have the right to appeal a decision or complain to your local data-protection authority.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date.
