1. Who is responsible?

The Android version of Zippy Gecko, published on Google Play under the developer name “LCPA Studio”, is published by LCPA SARL (30 Av. de Silvacane, 13640 La Roque-d’Anthéron, France — Salon-de-Provence Trade and Companies Register (RCS) no. 978 377 307), the data controller. LCPA Studio is the brand of LCPA SARL for its games and apps.

Ads are served through the Google AdMob account of Ludovic Giacalone, co-manager of LCPA SARL, who is the holder of this advertising account. Neither LCPA SARL nor Ludovic Giacalone receives any data that identifies you: AdMob only shows them overall statistics (for example, the number of ads displayed). Google processes advertising data on its own behalf (see below).

One single contact, for LCPA SARL and for Ludovic Giacalone alike: support@lcpastudio.fr. On iPhone, the app is published by Ludovic Giacalone and has its own page: Zippy Gecko privacy policy for iPhone. See also the legal notice.

2. What the game saves

The game asks for no account, no name and no email address. Your game data (best scores, fireflies, outfits, upgrades, settings) is saved only on your device and is not sent to any server of the publisher. If Android backup is turned on for your Google Account, Android may include it in your device backup, which is managed by Google; the publisher has no access to it. Uninstalling the game erases this data from the phone.

3. Ads (Google AdMob) and advertising ID

The game is free thanks to ads provided by Google (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). To show ads, measure their effectiveness, limit how often they repeat and fight fraud, Google’s advertising kit collects and sends to Google: the Android advertising ID (AD_ID) and an identifier specific to the publisher’s apps (“app set ID”), the IP address and an approximate location derived from it, technical information (model, Android version, language), your interactions (app launch, taps, ads viewed) and diagnostic data (performance of the app and of the kit). This data is encrypted in transit.

• Consent: where the law of your country requires it (in particular in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland), a Google form appears on first launch and lets you accept or refuse personalised advertising and the other purposes. No ad is requested before you answer. You can change your mind at any time: Settings › Privacy and ads. If you refuse, non-personalised ads may be shown; Google then processes limited data to display them and fight fraud.
• Advertising ID: you can reset or delete it in Android settings (Privacy › Ads, depending on the phone).
• Age: in France, under 15, ask a parent before accepting personalised advertising (the age varies from country to country).
• Legal bases: your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR) for personalised advertising; legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f)) to show non-personalised ads, measure their effectiveness and fight fraud.
• Transfers: Google may process this data outside the European Union, in particular in the United States, with the safeguards provided for by the GDPR (EU-US Data Privacy Framework adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses).

4. In-app purchases (Google Play)

The purchases on offer are optional: No Ads, Starter Pack (No Ads included), Golden Outfit, fireflies, revives and Firefly Jar. They are handled entirely by Google Play. LCPA SARL never sees your payment method. In its Google Play Console (not in the game), it receives from Google the sales information it needs for its management and accounting: order number, product, price, country and date. On your phone, the game reads the list of your purchases from Google Play to give them back to you (automatic restore with the same Google Account). Legal bases: performance of the sales contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) and LCPA SARL’s accounting obligations (Article 6(1)(c)).

5. Sharing and ratings

The “Share” button opens the Android share sheet with a sentence (your result) and the Google Play link: nothing is sent until you choose the app and the recipient yourself. The “Rate the app” window is Google Play’s own.

6. What the game does not do

No account, no online leaderboard, no precise (GPS) location, no access to your contacts, microphone, camera or gallery; no health data and no financial data collected by the publisher; no audience measurement tool other than the advertising one; no sale of data.

7. Children

The game is suitable for everyone but is not designed for children: on Google Play, it is intended for people aged 13 and over. If you believe a child has sent us information, write to us and we will delete it.

8. Retention period

Game data: on the device, until uninstallation. Sales information: 10 years (accounting obligation, Article L123-22 of the French Commercial Code). Advertising data: kept by Google according to its own rules (links above).

9. Your rights

Under the GDPR, you have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection and data portability, the right to withdraw your consent at any time and to give instructions on what happens to your data after your death. To exercise them: support@lcpastudio.fr. The publisher holds no game data that identifies you; for advertising data, the quickest way is to change your choice in the game and reset your advertising ID. You can also lodge a complaint with the CNIL (www.cnil.fr) or the authority of your country.
