Privacy Policy — Apple-Zebra

Last updated: June 2026  ·  Developer: Notification Games Studio

Apple-Zebra is a word-guessing game designed to be played from the Android notification shade. This policy explains what data the app collects, how it is used, and your rights.

Data stored on your device

Apple-Zebra stores the following data locally on your device only, using Android's SharedPreferences system. This data never leaves your device and is never transmitted to any server:

• Game state — the current secret word, boundary words, and remaining attempts for the active game.
• Game statistics — number of games played, won, and lost; win streaks; best game.
• Settings — your chosen language, difficulty, and attempt count.

You can delete all of this data at any time by uninstalling the app or going to Settings → Apps → Apple-Zebra → Clear Data on your device.

Analytics and crash reporting

Apple-Zebra uses Firebase Crashlytics and Firebase Analytics (Google LLC) to improve the app:

• Crashlytics collects crash reports, including device model, Android version, and app version. This helps us fix bugs.
• Analytics collects anonymous usage events such as game started, game won/lost, and settings changed. No personally identifiable information is ever included in these events.

As part of this, Firebase also automatically collects:

• Approximate location — a coarse, city-level location that Google derives from your device's IP address. This is not precise GPS location, and the app never requests location permission.
• An installation identifier — a randomly generated ID (Firebase's app-instance ID and Crashlytics' installation UUID) used to count distinct installs and group the events from a single crash. This is not an advertising identifier: Apple-Zebra accesses no advertising ID (GAID).

You can turn off analytics and crash reporting at any time with the "Share anonymous usage data" switch in the app's Settings.

Firebase processes this data in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy. You can learn more about how Firebase handles data at firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

Purchases

In-app purchases are processed entirely by Google Play Billing (Google LLC). We never receive or store your payment information. Purchase records are managed by your Google account.

Advertising

Apple-Zebra contains no advertising of any kind. No advertising identifiers (GAID or otherwise) are ever accessed or transmitted.

Data sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties, except as described above (Firebase, which operates under Google's privacy policy, and Google Play for purchases).

Children

Apple-Zebra does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. The app contains no chat, social features, or user-generated content.
