This policy explains how CapitalCraft Studios ("we", "our", or "us") processes information when you use the Money Tycoon mobile application ("Money Tycoon" or the "App"). Money Tycoon is a simulation game. Balances, holdings, trades, and other financial values inside the game are virtual game data, not real bank or brokerage accounts.
The App stores game progress on your device using Room, DataStore, and protected preferences. This includes your player name, selected country and persona, virtual balances, businesses, properties, investments, orders, achievements, settings, tutorial state, and purchase entitlement state.
On first launch, the App automatically asks Firebase Authentication to create a random user ID. No email address is required for this anonymous account. You may optionally link a Google or Google Play Games identity for account recovery. If you link one, Firebase may receive the email address, provider user ID, display name, and authentication token supplied by Google. We do not receive your Google password.
Current Android builds synchronize a protected copy of game state when cloud services and a network connection are available. The copy is keyed to your Firebase user ID and may include:
The App remains usable when cloud services are unavailable, but there is no user-facing switch that prevents the automatic anonymous identity or all cloud-save processing in the current release.
Older distributed versions could also write Google Play Games Saved Games snapshots. New releases have paused those snapshot mutations during a save-integrity migration. Historical snapshots may remain in Google Play Games until they are deleted through the account-deletion process or Google account controls.
Google Play processes purchases. We receive purchase tokens, product identifiers, transaction status, and entitlement information needed to verify and deliver a purchase. We do not receive full payment-card or bank-account details.
Firebase Cloud Messaging may issue a per-installation token. When a token is registered, the App may store it with your Firebase user ID, locale, selected country, notification preferences, streak, app version, device model, and Android version. Android notification permission and in-app category settings control whether notifications are shown. Server-side frequency controls limit engagement messages.
Google Play Games sign-in is optional. If used, the App may receive a Player ID and display name for authentication and achievements. Earlier versions could submit game statistics such as virtual net worth, business/property counts, passive income, prestige, achievements, trade profit, and virtual tax paid to Google leaderboards. Online cross-player competition is paused in the current release while server-authoritative integrity controls are completed; local and simulated leaderboards remain available.
The current release offers user-initiated rewarded ads. Google AdMob and enabled mediation partners may process an advertising or device identifier, IP-derived approximate location, ad interactions, and diagnostic information for ad delivery, measurement, frequency control, fraud prevention, and compliance. Depending on region and consent, ads may be personalized or non-personalized. The Google User Messaging Platform stores and communicates your advertising consent choices. You can reopen privacy choices from the App's settings and can reset or delete the Android advertising ID in system settings.
Potential mediation partners include Meta Audience Network, Pangle, Unity, Liftoff/Vungle, AppLovin, ironSource, Mintegral, InMobi, and Digital Turbine/Fyber. A partner receives an ad request only when selected by the AdMob mediation configuration and permitted by applicable consent signals.
Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics collection are disabled in the current release, regardless of the advertising-consent result, and unsent Crashlytics reports are deleted. Historical versions may have processed app interactions, crash logs, diagnostics, device information, and an anonymous user ID when collection was enabled. Firebase Remote Config and App Check may process installation and integrity signals needed to deliver configuration securely. Advertising SDKs may process diagnostic information when an ad is requested.
Optional Pro Trading screens may request public market prices from providers such as Alpha Vantage, Finnhub, or Alpaca. Requests use HTTPS and may expose ordinary connection information such as IP address and user agent to the provider. If you enter a provider API key, it is stored locally and sent only to that provider to make the requested market-data call.
The Tycoon Card feature generates an image on your device. Money Tycoon does not upload the image. If you choose Share or Save, Android sends it to the destination you select, and that destination's privacy terms apply.
We use Google Play, Firebase, Google Play Games, Google AdMob, the mediation partners listed above, and optional market-data providers. We do not sell personal information for money. Advertising identifiers and related data may be "shared" for cross-context behavioural advertising under some privacy laws when personalized advertising is permitted. Service-provider processing for hosting, authentication, purchases, security, and support is limited to providing those services.
Provider policies include Google's Privacy Policy, Firebase Privacy and Security, and AdMob privacy information.
Local data remains until you reset it, clear app storage, delete the account, or uninstall. Cloud game data remains while the account is active or until deletion succeeds. Purchase records and entitlement evidence may be retained where required to prevent duplicate fulfillment, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations. Google may retain Play purchase history, subscriptions, achievements, and other platform records under Google's policies even after Money Tycoon account deletion.
Network traffic uses HTTPS and Android cleartext traffic is disabled. Firebase security rules isolate player documents by authenticated user ID. Release builds use code shrinking/obfuscation and app/device integrity controls. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
This process requests deletion of the Firebase account, Firestore game data, server-authoritative exchange/rebirth records, registered notification data, and Money Tycoon-managed cloud saves, then clears local game data. If a recent Google reauthentication is required, the App will ask you to sign in again before continuing.
Email capitalcraftgames@gmail.com with the subject Money Tycoon account deletion request. Include the linked Google email or any player/account identifier you still have. Do not send a password or payment-card information. We may ask for proportionate verification so another person cannot delete your account. We aim to complete verified requests within 30 days.
Google Play purchase history, active/cancelled subscription records, Play Games achievements, fraud-prevention records, and records legally required for accounting or dispute handling may remain under applicable retention rules. De-identified aggregate records that can no longer be linked to you may also remain.
Reset Game starts a new playthrough and is not the same as Delete Account. Clear storage or uninstall removes local data but does not reliably delete cloud data.
You can manage ad privacy choices and notification categories in Settings, decline optional Google/Play Games linking, use Android advertising controls, and request access, correction, export, restriction, objection, or deletion where applicable. EEA/UK users may withdraw consent and complain to their local supervisory authority. California residents may request to know, correct, or delete covered information and may opt out of sharing used for cross-context behavioural advertising. We do not discriminate for exercising privacy rights.
Money Tycoon is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from a child under 13. If you believe a child provided information, contact us so we can investigate and delete it.
Service providers may process information in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, transfers rely on recognized safeguards such as adequacy decisions, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, or standard contractual clauses.
We may update this policy as the App, providers, or legal requirements change. We will update the date above and provide additional notice for material changes when required.
