This policy explains what information the game Merge Defenders collects and how it is used. The game is made by ZO Studio (Omri Zelazny, Israel). If you have any question about it, write to zostudio.dev@gmail.com.
The short version
The game does not ask who you are, does not need an account, and in this version does not send any information about you anywhere. Your progress is saved on your own phone.
What is stored on your device
To remember your progress, the game keeps a small save file on your phone. It contains:
- the levels you have cleared and your stars;
- your gold, shards, boosters and character levels;
- your settings, such as whether sound effects are on.
This file never leaves your device because of the game. Deleting the game, or clearing its data in your phone's settings, deletes it.
Android backup. If you have Android's backup feature turned on, your phone may include this file in the backup it keeps in your Google account, so that your progress returns if you reinstall. That backup is made and stored by Google under Google's own privacy policy, and you can turn it off in your phone's settings.
What we do NOT collect
In this version the game collects no personal information: no name, no email address, no location, no contacts, no photos, and no advertising identifier. It shows no ads, contains no analytics, and has no purchases.
Services the game relies on
- Google Play delivers the game to your phone. Google may collect information as part of running the store, such as crash reports if you have chosen to share them. That is covered by Google's privacy policy.
- Unity is the engine the game is built with. We have switched off Unity's diagnostic data collection, so the game does not send data to Unity.
This website
This website uses no cookies, no analytics and no trackers, and loads nothing from other sites. Like any website, the service that hosts it (Cloudflare) receives the technical information your browser sends to load a page, such as your IP address, in order to deliver it.
Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.
Your rights
Because we do not collect personal information, we hold nothing about you to view, correct or delete. All of your game data is on your own phone, and you control it. If you think we hold something about you, write to us at the address above and we will answer.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the game adds ads, analytics or purchases, we will update this policy before that version is released, and change the effective date at the top.
