Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This Privacy Policy explains what information PawComet Studio (“we”, “us”) collects through our mobile games, including Kingdom Cat (Android package com.pawcometstudio.kingdomcat), and through this website, how it is used and the choices you have.
The short version: we don’t ask for your name, email address or any account. Your game progress stays on your phone. To keep the game working, improve it and keep it free, the game uses three services from Google and Sentry that receive technical information from your device: analytics, crash reporting and ads.
Information we do not collect
- We do not require or offer an account or sign-in.
- We do not ask for your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos or precise location.
- Text you type into the game, such as your princess’s name or a gift code, stays on your device and is never sent to us or to our analytics.
Information stored on your device
Your progress, settings, purchases made with in-game currency and wardrobe items are saved locally on your phone. We cannot see or restore this data. Uninstalling the game or clearing its app data deletes it.
Information collected by services we use
Gameplay analytics: Google Analytics for Firebase
To understand how players experience the game, for example which levels are too hard, Kingdom Cat sends gameplay events to Google Analytics for Firebase. These include:
- level starts and results (win, loss or quit), attempt number, stars, hearts left and time taken,
- use of power-ups, perches and the 2× speed button,
- tutorials seen, ad offers and whether a video was watched, in-game currency earned and spent,
- game settings such as sound and reduced-effects choices.
Firebase also automatically collects an app-instance identifier that is randomly generated for each install, the app version, device model, operating system version, language, and an approximate country or region derived from your IP address. Our analytics do not read your device’s advertising ID, and this data is not used for ad personalization.
Google’s privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy. How Google uses data from apps: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Crash reporting: Sentry
If the game crashes, freezes or hits an error, a diagnostic report is sent to Sentry (Functional Software, Inc.). It contains technical details such as the error and where it happened in the code, the game version, device model, operating system version and memory state. We have configured Sentry not to collect personal data. We use these reports only to find and fix bugs.
Sentry’s privacy policy: sentry.io/privacy.
Advertising: Google AdMob
Kingdom Cat is free and shows ads through Google AdMob: optional reward videos that you choose to watch, and occasional full-screen ads between levels. To show ads, measure them and prevent fraud, Google AdMob may collect your device’s advertising ID, IP address, device and app information, and your interactions with ads.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland or another region where consent is required, the game shows Google’s consent form before personalized ads are shown, and you can choose non-personalized ads.
You can reset or delete your advertising ID at any time in your Android settings (usually Settings → Privacy → Ads or Settings → Google → Ads).

Summary table

How we use information
We use the information above only to operate the game, measure and improve its design and difficulty, fix bugs and crashes, and show ads that keep the game free. We do not sell your personal information, and we share it only with the service providers listed in this policy, or when required by law.
Data retention
On-device data stays until you uninstall the game or clear its data. Analytics, crash reports and ad data are kept by the providers above according to their retention settings and policies, and only for as long as needed for the purposes described here.
Your choices and rights
- Ads: reset or delete your advertising ID in your Android settings, and use the consent form where it is offered.
- Stop all collection: uninstalling the game stops all data collection by the game.
- Requests: depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA or Brazil’s LGPD), you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data, or to object to its processing. Because we do not collect your name or contact details, we may be unable to link data to you, but email us and we will do our best to help.
Children
Kingdom Cat is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided personal information through our games, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
International transfers
Our service providers may process information in the United States and other countries whose data protection laws differ from yours. They rely on recognized safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses, for these transfers.
Security
Data sent by the game to the services above is transmitted over encrypted connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we choose reputable providers and collect as little as we can.
This website
pawcometstudio.com does not use cookies, analytics or advertising. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes basic technical information such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the site. See cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
Changes to this policy
