At MaxxDev.Tech, your privacy and the privacy of the users of the games we develop are of the utmost importance to us. This Privacy Policy outlines how we handle, store, and protect data in the course of developing Android games for our clients. We are committed to maintaining transparency regarding the data practices and ensuring compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
1. Information We Do Not Collect
As a professional Android game development company, MaxxDev.Tech does not collect, store, or process any personal data from the players of the games we develop. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Personally Identifiable Information (PII): Such as name, address, email address, phone number, or any other information that could be used to identify a player.
- Payment Information: We do not handle any financial transactions within the games we develop. If your game includes in-app purchases or other payment-related features, this will be managed separately by the respective payment processor (e.g., Google Play).
- Location Data: We do not collect GPS location or any other form of location tracking for players of the games we develop.
- User Accounts: Our games do not require user account creation or the submission of personal details to play the game.
2. No Third-Party Services
Our games are developed independently and do not integrate with any third-party apps, websites, or external services that would collect or share personal data. We do not use third-party advertising networks, analytics services, or social media integrations that would gather personal data from players.
Third-Party Integration Disclaimer: In the event that a client of MaxxDev.Tech wishes to integrate third-party services (e.g., in-app advertisements, user analytics, or social media login), it is their responsibility to comply with privacy regulations and inform the end users of the data practices. We will assist clients in integrating such services but will not be liable for any personal data collected by third parties.
3. Permissions Requested by the Game
While we do not collect personal information, some permissions may be required for the proper functioning of the game. These permissions are used exclusively for the intended functionality of the game and do not collect or share personal information.
Permissions may include:
- Storage Access: To store game data such as game progress, settings, and user preferences locally on the player’s device. This ensures that users’ progress is saved, even when they close or reopen the game.
- Network Access: For online features, such as multiplayer functionality, leaderboards, or cloud saving (if applicable). The use of network access is limited to the operation of the game itself and does not involve tracking or sharing personal information.
Players will be notified of the specific permissions the game requires before installation, and they have the option to deny permissions if they choose.
4. Data Storage and Retention
As part of our development process, we do not store or retain any personal data on our servers. All data related to gameplay, including game progress, achievements, or settings, is stored locally on the player’s device. This means that MaxxDev.Tech does not have access to any player’s data unless the client specifically requests to collect and manage such data.
Data Retention:
The data stored on a player’s device, such as in-game progress, is retained as long as the user keeps the game installed. Should the player uninstall the game, this data may be deleted from the device. We do not retain any personal data or gameplay data after the game’s lifecycle unless expressly requested by the client for backend services.
5. Security Measures
At MaxxDev.Tech, we take data security seriously. While we do not collect personal information, we ensure that any non-personal data generated through gameplay, such as game settings or user preferences, is securely stored and not exposed to unauthorized access.
Security Best Practices:
- We use encryption and secure coding practices to ensure that game data is protected from malicious access.
- We regularly test our games for security vulnerabilities to mitigate risks to the integrity of the game’s functionality and user experience.
Limitation of Liability: Please note that while we implement strict security measures, no system is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute protection against data breaches, though we strive to minimize risks through industry-standard practices.
6. Client Responsibility
As a game development company, MaxxDev.Tech works with clients to develop and deliver Android games. If any of our games involve the collection or processing of personal information, such as creating user accounts, collecting in-app purchases, or integrating third-party services (e.g., analytics or advertising networks), the client is responsible for implementing a separate Privacy Policy that addresses the specific data collection practices.
Client’s Role in Data Collection:
- If your game involves features that collect personal data, we recommend that you include a detailed Privacy Policy within your game and ensure that it complies with relevant laws (such as GDPR, CCPA, or other applicable regulations).
- We will assist in integrating features that may collect data, but MaxxDev.Tech is not responsible for any personal data collection, usage, or storage outside the game development process.
7. Children’s Privacy
Our games are generally intended for users of all ages. However, we do not intentionally collect any personal data from children under the age of 13, and we strongly recommend that our clients adhere to applicable laws regarding the collection of personal data from minors.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information within one of our games, please contact us immediately. We will take appropriate steps to delete any personal data from our systems if we discover that such data has been collected in violation of applicable laws.
8. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or services. Any updates will be posted here on this page, with a revision date at the top of the document. We encourage you to review this policy regularly to stay informed about how we are protecting your privacy.
Important Note:
If we make any material changes to how we handle data or if we begin collecting personal information, we will notify our clients and users and update this policy accordingly.
