Last Updated: February 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how Atlas Solitaire ("we," "our," or "the app") handles information when you use our mobile application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices.

2. Information We DON'T Collect

Atlas Solitaire is designed to respect your privacy:

• No Personal Information: We don't collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or contact information
• No Location Tracking: We don't access or store your location
• No Device Identifiers: We don't collect or store unique device identifiers for tracking purposes

3. Data That Stays on Your Device

The following data is stored locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers:

• Game Progress: Your current game state, allowing you to resume games

Important: This data never leaves your device. If you delete the app, all this data is permanently removed.

4. Third-Party Services

4.1 Google AdMob (Advertising)

Atlas Solitaire displays ads through Google AdMob. Here's how ads work in our app:

• Contextual Ads Only: Ads are based on geography and game category (card games), NOT personal tracking
• No Cross-App Tracking: We've disabled personalized ads that track you across apps
• Privacy-First Approach: We use Google's privacy-safe ad delivery
• User Control: You can disable ads completely in Settings

What AdMob May Collect (handled by Google):

• General location (country/city level only, for relevant ads)
• Device type and OS version
• App performance metrics

4.2 Apple Game Center

If you choose to use Game Center features (leaderboards, achievements):

• Optional: Game Center is completely optional
• Apple's Service: All Game Center data is managed by Apple, not us
• What's Shared: Your Game Center nickname, scores, and achievements
• Control: Managed through your iOS Settings → Game Center

Apple's Game Center Privacy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/

5. How We Use Information

Since we don't collect personal information, there's nothing to use! The only data handling happens for:

• Local Game State: Saving your progress on your device
• Ad Delivery: Showing contextual ads (geography-based, no personal tracking)
• Game Center: Optional leaderboards and achievements (managed by Apple)

6. Data Sharing

We don't share any data because we don't collect any personal data to share.

The only "sharing" that occurs:

• Google AdMob: Anonymous ad performance metrics (handled automatically by their SDK)
• Apple Game Center: Optional scores/achievements you choose to submit

7. Children's Privacy

Atlas Solitaire is safe for all ages, including children:

• We don't knowingly collect data from children
• No personal information is collected from anyone
• Educational content (geography) is appropriate for all ages
• Ads can be disabled in Settings
• Complies with COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act)

8. Your Choices and Controls

You have complete control over your experience:

• Disable Ads: Settings → Toggle "Ads" off
• Disable Sound: Settings → Toggle "Sound" off
• Disable Haptics: Settings → Toggle "Haptics" off
• Game Center: iOS Settings → Game Center → Enable/Disable
• Delete All Data: Delete the app from your device

9. Data Security

We take security seriously:

• No personal data is transmitted over the network
• Local data is stored using iOS's secure storage mechanisms
• No user accounts or passwords required
• All third-party services (AdMob, Game Center) use industry-standard security

10. International Users

Atlas Solitaire is available worldwide. Since we don't collect personal data, there are no data transfer concerns. AdMob and Game Center handle their own regional compliance (GDPR, CCPA, etc.).
