This policy informs you pursuant to Art. 13 GDPR about the processing of personal data when using the 8shape app.

The app stores game progress, settings and high scores locally on your device. We additionally process anonymised usage and crash data to keep the app stable. No user account is required.
If you voluntarily sign in with your Apple Game Center account, Apple processes your high scores, achievements and multiplayer matches to provide those features. This processing is carried out by Apple as an independent controller; Apple's privacy terms apply. We ourselves do not receive any personal data from Game Center beyond what is necessary.
The app shows ads via Google AdMob (Google Ireland Ltd.). This may process an advertising identifier (e.g. IDFA on iOS), device information, approximate location and IP address to display and measure ads.
On iOS we request your consent via App Tracking Transparency before any cross-app advertising identifier is used. You can restrict personalised ads at any time in your device settings. Details: policies.google.com/privacy and AdMob privacy notices.
Purchases within the app are processed entirely through the Apple App Store. We never process payment data ourselves; Apple's privacy terms apply.
The app is not specifically directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
The in-app shop can only be unlocked by entering the device passcode or via Face ID/Touch ID. This means children can only reach in-app purchases if they already have access to an Apple account with a passcode or Face ID/Touch ID set up.
You have the same rights described under Art. 15–21 GDPR (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection), plus the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
Questions about privacy in the app go to sebastian@8shapeapp.com.
We update this policy whenever the app or legal requirements change. The version published here is always the current one.
