Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Commitment

Welcome to Tarot Solitaire: Fortune Cards ("we", "our", or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal data of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how your information is handled when you use our mobile application.

Tarot Solitaire: Fortune Cards is designed as a standalone card game experience. You can enjoy our game without creating an account or providing personal identity credentials (such as your name, phone number, or email address).

2. Information Collection & Use

We do not directly collect, store, or sell any personally identifiable information (PII). However, to support game development and provide advertising features (such as rewarded ads for hints/undoes), our application integrates third-party advertising SDKs that may collect technical and device data.

3. Third-Party Advertising Services (Google AdMob)

Our app incorporates Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) to serve advertisements, including banner, interstitial, and rewarded video ads.

Google AdMob uses automated tools and SDKs to collect non-directly identifying information to deliver targeted, personalized, or non-personalized advertisements, measure ad performance, prevent fraudulent clicks, and limit frequency.

For more details on how Google handles advertising data, please review Google's official privacy documentation:

• Google Privacy Policy
• How Google uses information from sites or apps that use their services

4. On-Device Local Data Storage

To provide a seamless gameplay experience, Tarot Solitaire: Fortune Cards stores game progress and settings locally on your device (using standard local storage like shared_preferences).

Data stored locally includes:

• Game statistics (wins, losses, move counts, win streaks, best times).
• In-game inventory (earned hints and undo credits).
• User preferences (sound volume, background music toggle, card backs, table themes, animation speeds).
• Achievement unlocks and daily seed progress.

This data remains strictly on your device and is never uploaded to external servers. You can clear this data at any time by clearing the application's storage in your device settings or uninstalling the app.

5. Personalized Ads Opt-Out & Tracking Choices

6. Children's Privacy (COPPA & GDPR Compliance)

Tarot Solitaire: Fortune Cards is a general audience card game and is not directed towards children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in certain European Union jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

If you are a parent or legal guardian and believe that your child has provided us or our ad service providers with personal data without your consent, please contact us at blackspringnepal@gmail.com, and we will take immediate steps to address the request.

7. European (GDPR) & California (CCPA/CPRA) Privacy Rights

Depending on your geographic location, you may have statutory rights regarding your data under laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA):

8. Data Security

We prioritize the security of your information. All local application preferences are stored securely on your device. Any network requests made by third-party advertising partners (Google AdMob) utilize industry-standard HTTPS encryption.
