§ 01Data we collect

None. The app never sends any information to us or to anyone else. It does not contact any server: after installation the game is fully playable with the internet switched off, and it works exactly the same way with it switched on.

We do not collect, and have no access to, your name, e-mail address, location, device identifiers, advertising ID, contacts, photos, usage statistics, crash reports or any other information.

§ 02Data stored on your device only

To make the game work, it saves the following in a private database on your device. This data never leaves the device unless you export it (see section 3):

• Player profiles — the profile names you choose (these can be nicknames; a real name is not required), avatar/scarf choices and unlocked items.
• Game progress — scores, fish, XP, missions, run history and game settings.
• Math practice records — which questions were asked, whether the answer was right and how long it took, so the parent dashboard can show progress.
• Parental controls — the play-time limits, difficulty and math rules a parent has configured.
• Parent password / player PINs — stored only as a salted PBKDF2 hash. The actual password or PIN is never stored, and it cannot be recovered from the hash.

We (the publisher) cannot see, access or recover any of this data, because it exists only on your device.

Deleting the data: uninstalling the app permanently removes all of it. Individual profiles can also be deleted inside the parent dashboard.

Device backups: if you have enabled Android's automatic backup, your device may include this app's data in your own Google account backup. That backup is controlled by Android and your Google account settings and is covered by Google's privacy policy, not by us.

§ 03Backup file

The parent dashboard lets you export all profiles and progress to a single backup file and import it on another device. The file is created only when you ask for it, is saved where you choose, and is not sent to us. Because it contains all profiles and progress (including the password hashes), keep it in a safe place and share it only with people you trust.

§ 04Children's privacy

Edu Penguin Math Rush is designed for children and their parents. We take children's privacy seriously and the simplest way to protect it is not to collect anything at all — which is what we do. The app does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13 (COPPA) or under 16 (GDPR), does not show advertising, does not contain links to external websites or social media, and offers no chat or sharing features.

§ 05Permissions

The Android app requests only the INTERNET permission. This permission is included automatically by the framework the app is built with (Capacitor) and is required for the app's built-in web view to load its own bundled files; it is not used to send or receive data over the network. The app requests no other permissions (no location, camera, microphone, storage, contacts, etc.). Vibration feedback, when available, uses the standard system feature and requires no special permission.

§ 06Third parties

The app contains no third-party services, SDKs, advertising networks or analytics tools.

Google Play: when you install the app through Google Play, Google may process data (such as install statistics or aggregated crash reports) according to Google's own privacy policy. We do not receive any personal data from Google Play.

§ 07Web version

The game is also available as a web app (Progressive Web App) in a browser. The web version stores its data in your browser's local storage on your device, in the same way as described in section 2, and likewise does not send any data to us. As with any website, the web server that delivers the game's files may keep standard technical server logs (such as the IP address and time of the request) for security and operational purposes; these logs are not used to identify or track players and are not combined with any game data.

§ 08Your rights

Under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability and objection. Because we do not collect or hold any personal data about you, there is nothing for us to access, correct or delete on our side — all data is under your direct control on your device. If you have any question or concern about privacy, you can contact us at admin@dictumlabs.ai. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Romanian supervisory authority, the Autoritatea Națională de Supraveghere a Prelucrării Datelor cu Caracter Personal (ANSPDCP, www.dataprotection.ro), or with your local data-protection authority.

§ 09Changes to this policy

If the app ever changes in a way that affects this policy (for example, if a future version adds an online feature), we will update this document, change the effective date above and, where appropriate, inform you inside the app. The current version is always available at dictumlabs.ai/privacy-edu-penguin-math-rush.html.
