01 / Scope
Who this policy covers
This policy explains how information may be processed when you use Orbit Lock. Orbit Lock is operated by Artificial Luck LLC through AL Labs, its games and apps brand. It does not require a user account.
02 / Information processed
What may be processed
Gameplay and usage information
Firebase Analytics is disabled by default. If you enable optional Diagnostics in Orbit Lock, Firebase Analytics may receive application and gameplay events such as:
- App or session start and end, and session duration
- Tutorial start, replay, and completion
- Run start and end, run duration, score, highest tile, and successful-shot count
- Orbit Shift count and Game Over or death cause, where available
- Shield usage
- Wildcard and Relocate items earned or used
- Revive offers, acceptance, or decline
- Rewarded-ad outcomes and interstitial display
- Shop views
- Purchase attempt, completion, and purchase-restore events
- Music, SFX, and Haptics preference changes
Orbit Lock does not intentionally send custom user IDs, email addresses, raw saved game boards, screenshots, receipts, or arbitrary custom log text through this optional analytics feature. Firebase Analytics collection of Apple’s Identifier for Vendors (IDFV) is disabled in the current configuration.
Crash and diagnostic information
Firebase Crashlytics is also disabled by default. If you enable Diagnostics, Crashlytics may process crash stack traces, app installation identifiers used by the service, device and app technical information, and other diagnostic information needed to investigate failures.
Orbit Lock does not intentionally attach custom user IDs, email addresses, screenshots, saved game boards, receipts, or arbitrary custom log text to Crashlytics reports.
Advertising information
Orbit Lock uses Google AdMob and currently requests non-personalized ads. Non-personalized advertising may still involve information needed to provide, secure, and measure ads, potentially including IP address, approximate location derived from IP, device and app information, app- or developer-bounded identifiers where available, ad interactions, and diagnostics.
Rewarded ads are voluntary. They remain optional for players who have purchased Ad-Free. Interstitial ads may be shown between runs to free users.
Consent information
Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) may store or process your consent and privacy choices where required for your region. Privacy options are made available in the app where required.
In-App Purchases and Unity Services
Orbit Lock uses Unity In-App Purchasing and platform billing services, including Google Play Billing on Android, to provide optional, permanent in-game upgrades such as Extra Shield, Ad-Free, and Orbit Lock Plus.
During purchase processing, Unity’s purchasing software may transmit purchase-event information to Unity, including product identifiers, transaction and order details, receipt-related information, and device, installation, or session identifiers.
This information is used to support purchase processing, entitlement management, restoration, and related service analytics.
This reporting operates independently of Orbit Lock’s optional Firebase Diagnostics setting. Disabling Firebase Diagnostics does not disable all information transmitted by Unity In-App Purchasing or other services required for app functionality.
03 / How information is used
Why information is used
- Operate Orbit Lock and maintain player preferences
- Provide and measure advertising
- Process, fulfill, and restore purchases
- Understand gameplay and app usage when Diagnostics is enabled
- Identify and correct crashes or technical problems when Diagnostics is enabled
- Improve performance, usability, and features
- Comply with applicable legal requirements
04 / Third-party services
Services that support Orbit Lock
The services below may process information under their own privacy policies, terms, and configurations. Artificial Luck LLC does not control their independent privacy practices.
05 / Advertising & tracking
Current advertising approach
Orbit Lock currently requests non-personalized advertising. As of this policy’s effective date, Orbit Lock does not intentionally access Apple’s Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) or perform cross-company tracking as Apple defines it, so the app does not currently request App Tracking Transparency permission.
Non-personalized ads can still require data processing, and advertising or data-processing consent may still be required in some regions. Orbit Lock uses UMP to present applicable consent or privacy options. If the app’s advertising practices change in a future version, this policy will be updated as appropriate.
06 / Diagnostics choice
Optional and off by default
You may enable or disable optional Diagnostics in Orbit Lock’s settings.
Disabling Diagnostics prevents Orbit Lock from intentionally sending optional gameplay analytics and crash reporting through that setting going forward. This is subject to normal technical limitations and does not reverse information already processed by a provider. Because Orbit Lock does not require an account or attach a custom user ID to this telemetry, Artificial Luck LLC may not be able to locate or delete provider data associated with a particular person or device.
08 / Retention
Purpose-based retention
Retention depends on the type and purpose of the information, applicable legal requirements, and the settings and practices of the relevant third-party service. Artificial Luck LLC intends to use short, practical retention settings where they are configurable. Platform stores and other providers may retain information according to their own policies and legal obligations.
09 / Children’s privacy
General protections
Artificial Luck LLC does not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children contrary to applicable law. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child’s information was processed improperly in connection with Orbit Lock, contact us at developer@artificialluck.com so we can review the concern.
10 / Your choices
Controls available to you
- Keep Diagnostics off, or turn it on or off in the game’s settings
- Use regional advertising and privacy options when they are made available in the app
- Adjust Music, SFX, and Haptics preferences; these control the game experience and are not privacy controls
- Use Restore Purchases for eligible permanent purchases
- Use device and platform privacy settings that may be available to you
- Contact Artificial Luck LLC with privacy questions
11 / Security
Reasonable safeguards
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information associated with Orbit Lock, but no method of transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
12 / Updates
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as Orbit Lock, its services, or legal requirements change. When we make changes, we will update the effective date shown at the top of this page. Material changes may also be communicated in the app or through another appropriate channel.
