Lizard Catch Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 26, 2026
Lizard Catch ("the app") is made by Vacharapat Mettanant, an individual developer ("I"). This policy explains what information the app uses and who receives it.
Summary
- The app has no accounts and no sign-in.
- I do not collect, receive, or store any personal information about you.
- Your game data stays on your device.
- The app shows ads from Google AdMob. Google may collect data from your device to show and measure ads, as described below.
Data stored on your device
The app stores your items (bait and clocks), the room scene you picked, your sound setting, and the number of rounds you have played. This data stays on your device and is included in your device backups. It is never sent to me. Deleting the app deletes this data.
Motion and fold sensors
The app reads your device's motion sensors so you can look around the room, and on foldable iPhone it reads the hinge angle so you can fold to snap. These readings are used only on your device while you play. They are not stored or sent anywhere.
Game Center
If you're signed in to Game Center, the app sends your round scores to Lizard Catch's weekly leaderboards. Game Center is run by Apple: your Game Center nickname and scores may be visible to other players according to your Game Center settings, and Apple's privacy policy applies. You can sign out of Game Center in Settings.
Purchases
In-app purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. I do not receive your name, payment details, or Apple Account information. Apple's privacy policy applies to purchases: apple.com/legal/privacy.
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The app uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK and Google's User Messaging Platform to show ads between rounds and optional rewarded ads. Google, as an independent company, may collect and use the following data from your device:
| Data | Examples | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| Device identifiers | The advertising identifier (IDFA), only if you allow tracking | Advertising, measurement, analytics |
| Advertising data | Ads you saw or tapped | Advertising, measurement, analytics |
| Product interaction | App launches, taps on ads | Advertising, analytics, app functionality |
| Coarse location | Approximate area based on IP address | Advertising, analytics, app functionality |
| Diagnostics | Crash and performance data of the ads SDK | Analytics, advertising |
Learn more in Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Your choices
- Tracking: After your first round, iOS asks whether the app may track you. If you choose "Ask App Not to Track", Google cannot use your advertising identifier. You can change this anytime in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Consent (EEA, UK, Switzerland, and some US states): Where the law requires it, the app shows Google's consent form before personalized ads. You can change your choice anytime from the app's Shop → Ad Privacy Choices.
- Remove Ads: If you buy Remove Ads or the Supporter Pack, the app no longer loads ads.
Children
The app is not directed to children under 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
If this policy changes, I will update this page and its effective date.
