1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how the World Dash team (“World Dash”, “we”, “us” or “our”) handles information when you play the World Dash mobile game or visit its official website. It also explains the choices and rights available to you.
World Dash does not require an account and does not operate a player-account server. Game progress is stored locally on your device. The website is informational: it has no registration, contact form, advertising or analytics code.
2. Information we handle
Game data stored on your device
The game stores settings, scores, run statistics, currency balances, unlocked runners and worlds, upgrades, mission and achievement progress, daily-reward status, and reward or purchase-delivery records where applicable. This information remains in the game’s local app storage and is not uploaded to a World Dash account server.
Information you choose to provide
If you contact us for support or a privacy request, we receive the information in your message, such as your email address, device details and description of the issue. Please do not send passwords, payment-card details or other sensitive information.
Website and provider data
Like most websites, our hosting provider may process technical connection data, including your IP address, requested page, date and time, browser type and referring page, to deliver and protect the site. Google Fonts may receive connection information when your browser loads the site’s fonts. We do not combine this information with your local game progress.
3. How information is used
Information is used only as needed to:
- save your progress, settings and earned or purchased entitlements on your device;
- provide optional rewarded-ad offers and deliver the associated in-game rewards;
- operate, secure and improve the game and website;
- respond to support requests and enforce our Terms of Service; and
- meet legal obligations and protect the rights and safety of players and others.
Where data protection law requires a legal basis, we rely on performance of our agreement with you, our legitimate interests in operating and securing our services, your consent where requested, and compliance with legal obligations, as applicable.
4. Optional rewarded ads and Google AdMob
World Dash uses Google AdMob to provide optional rewarded ads in supported Android releases. You can choose to watch an ad for an offered reward, such as continuing a run or increasing a reward. The game does not require you to watch a rewarded ad to play its core game modes.
The AdMob software may be initialized when the game starts, before you select an ad. Google and its advertising partners may process device or advertising identifiers, IP address, device and app information, diagnostic data, approximate location derived from IP, and ad interactions. They may use this information to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud, maintain their services and, where permitted, personalize advertising.
Where required, advertising consent and privacy options are governed by the choices presented by Google, your device settings and applicable app-store controls. Choosing not to watch a rewarded ad means you will not receive that ad’s optional reward. For more information, see Google’s Privacy Policy, How Google uses information from sites or apps and My Ad Center.
6. Children’s privacy
World Dash does not ask players to create a profile or provide a name, age or contact details in the game. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children through the game. A parent or guardian who believes a child has provided personal information to us may contact us through the developer contact on the official Google Play listing so that we can review and delete it where required.
Advertising services are subject to separate provider rules and device or store settings. Parents and guardians should supervise a child’s use of connected services and use available parental controls where appropriate.
7. Data retention
Local game data remains on your device until you clear the game’s storage, uninstall the game or your device otherwise removes it. We keep support correspondence only as long as reasonably necessary to handle the request, maintain security, resolve disputes and meet legal obligations. Providers retain information according to their own policies and legal requirements.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the information we handle. However, no app, device, storage method or internet transmission is completely secure. Local game saves are not designed to be tamper-proof. You are responsible for maintaining your device’s security and any available backups.
9. Your choices and privacy rights
You can decline optional rewarded ads, manage advertising permissions through your device and Google controls, and delete local game data through your device’s app settings. Clearing data or uninstalling may permanently remove progress and entitlements that are not recoverable.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to request access to, correction or deletion of personal information, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent, request portability, or complain to a data-protection authority. These rights may be subject to legal exceptions. To make a request concerning information controlled by us, use the developer contact on the official World Dash Google Play listing. We may need to verify your request before responding and will respond within the period required by applicable law.
For information controlled by Google or another provider, you may need to exercise your rights directly with that provider. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawful before withdrawal.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when the game, website, service providers or legal requirements change. The revised policy will be published on this page with a new effective date. Where required or appropriate, we will provide additional notice through the game or app-store listing.
11. Contact
This policy is maintained by the World Dash team. For privacy questions, requests or support, use the developer contact shown on the official World Dash Google Play listing. The official website and store listing are the authoritative sources for our current contact details.
