Flying Hamster — com.crecker.flyinghamster
Last updated: June 14, 2026This Privacy Policy describes how our team ("we", "us", or "our") handles information in connection with the mobile game Flying Hamster (the "App"), available on Google Play.
By downloading or playing Flying Hamster, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please uninstall the App.
The App saves only the following item to your device's local storage:
| Data | Storage Location | Purpose | Transmitted? |
|---|---|---|---|
| High score (integer) | Android SharedPreferences | Display best score in Game Over screen | No — stays on device only |
We do not read, access, or transmit this value. It never leaves your device.
The App integrates two Google services that may collect data automatically. This data is collected and processed by Google, not by us directly. See Section 4 for full details.
Advertising ID, device identifiers, IP address, app usage, and approximate location for ad delivery.
Google account identifier, display name, avatar, and game scores for the leaderboard.
Because we do not directly collect personal information, the only data processing we perform is:
All other data usage (advertising, analytics, sign-in) is handled entirely by Google's own SDKs and governed by Google's Privacy Policy.
The App uses the following third-party services. Each operates under its own privacy policy; we encourage you to review them.
AdMob displays banner advertisements inside the App. To serve relevant ads, AdMob may collect:
You can opt out of personalised ads at any time via
Android Settings → Privacy → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalisation.
Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
AdMob data practices: https://support.google.com/admob/answer/6128543
The App uses Google Play Games Services to provide a global leaderboard. When you play with a Google account, Google may collect:
Play Games sign-in is handled automatically; you can sign out or manage your
game data at any time in the Google Play Games app.
Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Play Games terms: https://play.google.com/about/play-terms/
The App is distributed through Google Play. Google collects installation statistics, crash reports, and review data in accordance with its own policies. We receive only aggregated, anonymised analytics provided by the Google Play Console dashboard.
Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
We do not sell, trade, or rent any personal information to third parties.
We may disclose information only in the following limited circumstances:
The high score is stored in Android SharedPreferences and is retained until you uninstall the App. Clearing the App's data via Android Settings will also remove it.
Data collected by Google AdMob and Google Play Games is retained in accordance with Google's own data retention schedules. You can manage or delete this data through your Google Account settings at myaccount.google.com.
We take reasonable steps to protect the App from vulnerabilities. The App does not maintain its own servers and does not transmit personal data to any infrastructure we operate.
Communication with Google services uses HTTPS/TLS encryption as required by Google's SDK design. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. The App does not require account creation, does not ask for a name or email, and does not contain features that enable direct communication between users.
Advertising shown in the App is served by Google AdMob. If a device is identified as belonging to a child (e.g., through parental controls or Family Link), Google will serve non-personalised ads in accordance with applicable child privacy laws, including COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) and GDPR-K.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us using the details in Section 11 and we will take prompt action.
Depending on your country of residence, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
| Right | How to Exercise |
|---|---|
| Access & Portability — know what data is held about you | Via your Google Account at myaccount.google.com |
| Deletion — request erasure of personal data | Uninstall the App (removes local data); manage Google data at myaccount.google.com |
| Opt-out of personalised ads | Android Settings → Privacy → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalisation |
| Withdraw Play Games consent | Sign out or delete Play Games data in the Google Play Games app |
| Contact us — any other privacy request | Email us at the address in Section 11 |
For rights related to data processed by Google (AdMob, Play Games, Play Store), you must contact Google directly, as that data is not in our possession.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, notify users through the App's Google Play store listing.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the App after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or the App's data practices, please reach out:
We aim to respond to all privacy-related enquiries within 30 days.
