Privacy Policy for Cute Cat Chaos

Last updated: April 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Cute Cat Chaos ("Cute Cat Chaos," "we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use the app.

1. Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to the Cute Cat Chaos mobile app and related gameplay, account, cloud save, leaderboard, advertising, analytics, diagnostics, and in-app purchase features made available through the app.

2. Information We Process

Depending on how you use the app, we and our service providers may process:

• Local gameplay data stored on your device, such as progress, stars, catnip balances, unlocked items, settings, achievement state, and daily reward status.
• Account and sign-in data if you choose guest, Google, or Apple sign-in, including persistent identifiers and provider-linked account identifiers made available through Firebase Authentication and the sign-in provider.
• Optional profile data if you use account-linked features, such as your display name and leaderboard entries.
• Cloud save data if you use account-linked cloud features, including your gameplay save state and backup timestamps.
• Purchase and entitlement data needed to offer, validate, restore, sync, or honor in-app purchases across supported platforms.
• Advertising-related data processed by Google AdMob and its partners, which may include device identifiers, approximate location, app interactions, diagnostics, and ad performance data.
• Analytics and diagnostics data processed by Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, which may include app usage events, device and app metadata, crash traces, and technical performance information.
• App integrity and anti-abuse signals processed through Firebase App Check or platform attestation services when enabled.

3. How We Use Information

We use information to:

• Operate the app and save your progress.
• Enable sign-in, account recovery, leaderboards, and cloud save.
• Deliver and measure ads.
• Process, validate, restore, and protect in-app purchase entitlements.
• Analyze app usage, improve features, and troubleshoot crashes or abuse.
• Maintain security, detect fraud or misuse, and enforce our terms.

4. Local Storage

Cute Cat Chaos stores gameplay progress and settings locally on your device using on-device storage. If you uninstall the app, clear app storage, reset the device, or move to a different device without restoring account-linked data, local data may be lost.

5. Account, Cloud Save, and Leaderboards

Cute Cat Chaos can be used in guest mode or with supported sign-in providers. If you use account-linked features, we may store your account identifier, display name, leaderboard submissions, and cloud save data in Firebase services so those features function across sessions or devices.

Guest mode is still a sign-in state for app functionality, but it is intended to be anonymous from the app's perspective. Even in guest mode, platform and service providers may still process device or service identifiers needed to operate the app.

6. Ads

The app uses Google AdMob for advertising. AdMob and its partners may collect or receive data from the app and your device for ad delivery, fraud prevention, measurement, and frequency control, subject to their own policies and your device or regional consent settings where applicable.

7. In-App Purchases

In-app purchases are offered through the applicable app store platform. Apple and Google handle payment processing, taxes, billing, and refunds under their own terms and privacy practices. We may also use RevenueCat to help manage product availability, purchase validation, entitlement syncing, and restoration across platforms. We receive purchase status and entitlement information needed to unlock or restore content in the app.

8. Analytics and Diagnostics

We use Firebase Analytics to understand feature usage and app performance trends, and Firebase Crashlytics to detect, diagnose, and fix app crashes and stability issues.

9. Service Providers and Third Parties

The app currently integrates third-party services including:

• Firebase Authentication
• Firebase App Check
• Cloud Firestore
• Cloud Functions for Firebase
• Firebase Analytics
• Firebase Crashlytics
• Google AdMob
• RevenueCat
• Apple App Store / StoreKit and Google Play Billing
• Google Sign-In and Sign in with Apple when you choose those login methods

These providers may process information under their own terms and privacy policies.

10. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information in exchange for money. We may share information with service providers and platform partners only as needed to operate the app, provide advertising, support purchases, maintain analytics and diagnostics, comply with law, protect users, or enforce our rights.

11. Data Retention

• Local data remains on your device until removed by you or overwritten by app activity.
• Account-linked cloud save, leaderboard, analytics, crash, advertising, and purchase-related records may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to operate the app, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, or according to provider retention practices.

12. Your Choices

Depending on your platform and region, you may be able to:

• Use the app in guest mode instead of a social sign-in method.
• Decline to use account-linked cloud save or leaderboard functionality by avoiding those features or not signing in with a linked provider.
• Limit certain advertising or tracking preferences through device settings, platform permissions, or consent flows where available.
• Choose not to complete optional account-linked or purchase-linked flows, though some features may then be unavailable.
• Stop using the app, uninstall it, or clear local storage on your device.

13. Children's Privacy

Cute Cat Chaos is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly ask children to provide personal information directly to us. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us so we can review the issue.

14. International Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own by us or our service providers, subject to applicable law and provider safeguards.

15. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we do, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the app after an update becomes effective means the updated policy applies to your use, to the extent permitted by law.
