1. Who We Are & App Identifier Information

This Privacy Policy applies to the mobile game Paper Route: Retro Delivery:

We are committed to transparent user data practices and full compliance with the Google Play Developer Distribution Agreement and User Data Policies.

2. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

Paper Route: Retro Delivery is engineered to function 100% offline without mandatory cloud accounts. The following operational game data is stored directly in your device's sandboxed local storage (Android SharedPreferences / iOS NSUserDefaults):

  • Campaign Progression: Unlocked neighborhood worlds (Maple Street, Garden District, Old Town, Lakeside Avenue, Hillcrest Estates, Festival District) and 60 authored level completion flags.
  • Scoring & Performance: Mailbox hit streaks, best scores, earned stars (1 to 3 stars per level), and total career deliveries.
  • In-Game Currency & Inventory: Gold coin totals earned through routes or daily drops, and unlocked bike skins, bag cosmetics, and courier trails.
  • Audio & Hardware Preferences: Sound effect volume, retro background chiptune music toggle, and haptic feedback vibration settings.
  • Entitlement Records: Permanent status flags for purchased entitlements (such as "Remove Ads" or "Unlock All Levels") to ensure offline entitlement verification.

This data remains on your physical device. We do not transmit or sell your private gameplay progression to any third-party marketing brokers.

3. Third-Party Advertising & Google AdMob

To support free arcade gameplay across all 60 campaign levels, Paper Route: Retro Delivery integrates the Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) SDK provided by Google LLC:

  • Ad Formats: Rewarded video ads (watched voluntarily for emergency newspaper refills or 2X route coin multipliers), occasional interstitial ads between delivery routes, and banner placements.
  • Data Collected by AdMob: In accordance with Google's privacy disclosures, Google AdMob may automatically collect device identifiers, Android Advertising ID (AAID), IP address (for coarse geographic location and fraud prevention), app interaction metrics, and diagnostic information to serve ads and prevent ad fraud.
  • Personalized vs. Non-Personalized Ads: Depending on your device settings and regional consent regulations (such as GDPR in Europe), ads may be tailored to your interests or served as contextual, non-personalized ads.
  • Opt-Out & Privacy Controls: You can reset or delete your Android Advertising ID at any time via Settings > Google > Ads > Delete advertising ID on your Android device.
  • Google Privacy Policy: For details on how Google processes ad data, please review Google's Advertising & Privacy Policy and Google Privacy Policy.

4. In-App Purchases (Google Play Billing)

Players may optionally purchase digital items such as Coin Packs, the "Unlock All 60 Levels" pass, or "Pro Courier VIP Bundle" via Google Play In-App Billing:

  • All payment transactions are handled directly and securely by Google Play.
  • ADEX Soft Solutions does not receive, access, or store your payment card numbers, billing addresses, or bank account details.
  • Our application receives only a cryptographically signed transaction token confirming that your purchase was approved, enabling instant delivery of your digital in-game items.
  • Refunds and billing inquiries are governed by the Google Play Terms of Service.

5. Children's Privacy (COPPA & GDPR-K)

Paper Route: Retro Delivery is a retro arcade game designed for general audiences and is targeted at users aged 13 and older (or the applicable age of digital consent in your jurisdiction):

  • We do not knowingly collect, request, or solicit personally identifiable information (such as real names, home addresses, phone numbers, or photos) from children under the age of 13.
  • If a parent or legal guardian discovers that their child has provided personal information without consent, please contact us immediately at contact@adexsoftsolutions.com so we can take immediate corrective measures.

6. Device Permissions

The application requests only minimal, necessary Android permissions:

  • INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required to request ads via Google AdMob and verify digital purchases via Google Play Billing.
  • VIBRATE: Used solely to provide tactile haptic rumble when throwing newspapers or delivering to mailboxes (can be disabled in Settings).

The game does not request access to your camera, microphone, device contacts, fine GPS location, storage files, or phone state.

7. Data Retention & Deletion Rights

  • Clearing Game Progress: Because your game data is stored locally, clearing the app storage via Settings > Apps > Paper Route: Retro Delivery > Storage > Clear Storage or uninstalling the app permanently deletes all locally saved progress, scores, and coins.
  • Support Communication Deletion: If you contact our support desk via email, you may request deletion of any correspondence by sending an email with the subject "Privacy / Data Deletion Request" to contact@adexsoftsolutions.com.
