This Privacy Policy describes how the Crownpath chess game (“the App”) handles information on Android. The App is published by Vasa Serafin.

This page is for the Crownpath chess game. Remote Access (personal remote desktop) has a separate policy at /crownpath-privacy.html.

Summary

We do not sell your personal information.
On-device play. Chess and campaign state run on the device. Opponents are on-device.
Optional cloud only if you sign in to a Crownpath campaign or rooms feature you choose.

Information we process

Game and campaign state — stored on the device. Not required to leave the phone.
Purchase status — Google Play confirms No Ads (INAPP com.vasaserafin.crownpath.noads or SUBS com.vasaserafin.crownpath.noadssub). We store a local entitlement flag only.
Advertising — Google AdMob uses the Android Advertising ID, device information and ad interaction data per Google’s Privacy Policy. A banner may show on primary screens; a full-screen ad may show on first open and after the hard-coded cadence. Paid / No Ads / Pro = no ads.
Optional signed-in features — if you use campaign rooms or cloud save, the host you connect to stores only what that feature needs (account id, room id, save payload). You can stay offline for local chess.

What we do not do

We do not sell personal information.
We do not send board positions to a cloud chess engine for the on-device opponent.

Retention and deletion

Uninstalling the App or clearing its storage removes local saves and settings. If you used optional cloud save, contact us to delete the hosted copy. Ad partners and the Play Store may retain purchase or ad data under their own policies.

Your rights

Depending on your region you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your data. Contact vasa_serafin@hotmail.com.

California residents: we do not “sell” or “share” personal information as defined by the CCPA/CPRA.

Advertising, consent and analytics

This is one free app supported by ads from Google AdMob, with an optional remove-ads purchase through Google Play. AdMob uses the Android Advertising ID and device information (for example device model, OS version and app version) to serve ads, to limit how often you see the same ad (frequency capping) and to prevent fraud. AdMob’s certified ad partners may receive data through AdMob for the same purposes. You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of ad personalisation, in your Android settings (Settings → Privacy → Ads).

For users in the EEA and UK, the app shows the Google consent form (Google User Messaging Platform, UMP) before any ad request, and you can change your choice later. How Google handles this data is described at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. To opt out of personalised ads see Google Ad Settings and Google’s Privacy Policy.

Analytics. This app contains no analytics or crash-reporting SDK (no Firebase Analytics, no Crashlytics). The only data sent to third parties for ads is the AdMob data described above.

This web page. The website this policy is hosted on uses Google Analytics for page-view statistics, subject to the consent banner on the site (see the policy index).

Who is responsible, and applicable law

The app is published, and your data is controlled, by Vasa Serafin, an individual developer located in Australia. This policy is governed by Australian law, including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. Contact: vasa_serafin@hotmail.com.
