1. Game statistics (sent by the game itself)
While you play, the game sends short statistics messages to our own server. They contain:
| Device | Platform and device model (for example "Android, Pixel 8"), screen size, game version. |
|---|---|
| Performance | Frame rate, frame times, loading times, memory use, draw counts. |
| Gameplay events | For example "island started", "dive ended", depth reached, upgrades bought with in-game crystals, whether a rewarded ad was watched, which item was bought in a purchase (no payment details), game settings such as sound volume and language. |
| Crash information | When the game starts, what it was doing just before it last closed (for example "diving"), so we can find and fix crashes. |
| Random install ID | A random number created by the game on first start, used only to group the statistics of one installation. It is not linked to your name, Google/Apple account, advertising ID or phone number. |
Like every web server, our server sees the IP address of the request and derives the country from it (approximate location). The IP address itself is not stored with the statistics. We do not combine this data with other sources and we do not try to identify you. Statistics are used only to improve the game. They are never sold or shared for advertising. They are stored on a server in Germany and deleted after at most 12 months.
Turning it off: In the game open Settings → Privacy and switch off "ANONYMOUS STATS". From then on the game sends nothing.
Legal basis (EU/EEA): our legitimate interest in running and improving the game (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
2. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The game can show ads, including optional rewarded ads you choose to watch. Ads are provided by Google AdMob. Google may collect device identifiers (such as the advertising ID and app set ID), the IP address (from which a general location can be estimated), ad interaction data and diagnostic data (such as app launch time) to show and measure ads and to prevent fraud. In the EU/EEA, UK and Switzerland you are asked for consent through Google's consent form before personalised ads are shown; you can change your choice later in Settings → Privacy → AD CONSENT. More information: How Google uses information from apps that use its services and Google Privacy Policy.
3. In-app purchases
Purchases are processed entirely by Google Play or Apple's App Store. We never see your payment details. We only receive a confirmation that a purchase was made, so the game can deliver the item.
4. Data stored on your device
Your game progress and settings are saved locally on your device. Uninstalling the game deletes them.
5. Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the EU GDPR), you have the right to access, correct or delete data about you, to object to processing, and to complain to a data protection authority. Because the statistics are not linked to your identity, we usually cannot find "your" data. If you have a question or request, write to us; you can also simply turn statistics off at any time. Contact: support@gunduzdrive.com.
7. Deleting your data (Deep Reboot: Underwater Quest, developer Karatavuk)
The game has no accounts, so there is nothing to sign in to or close. To have your data deleted:
- Stop new data: in the game open Settings → Privacy and switch off "ANONYMOUS STATS".
- Delete what was already sent: e-mail support@gunduzdrive.com with the subject "Delete my data". Tell us your device model and roughly when you played, so we can find the statistics of your installation. We delete them within 30 days and confirm by e-mail.
- Game progress is stored only on your device: uninstalling the game deletes it.
- Advertising data is held by Google: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings (Settings → Google → Ads) and manage your choices at My Ad Center.
What is deleted: game statistics (gameplay events, performance and crash information, device model, random install ID). Nothing is kept after deletion. Without a request, statistics are deleted automatically after at most 12 months.
8. Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
