Privacy Policy

Welcome to Blackforge Studio. Your privacy is critically important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you play our mobile games, including Idle Crush, or interact with our website (blackforge.art).

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect personal identification information (such as your name, physical address, or phone number) directly through our games. However, our games may automatically collect non-personal device information through third-party SDKs for advertising, analytics, and performance optimization:

• Device identifiers (Advertising ID, GAID, IDFA).
• Operating system version and device hardware details.
• In-game gameplay statistics, progress, and performance diagnostics.
• Approximate geographical location (country/city level derived from IP).

2. Advertising & Third-Party Services

Our games may display advertisements provided by third-party ad networks, including Google AdMob. These services may collect and use pseudonymous device identifiers and cookies to deliver personalized or non-personalized ads in compliance with applicable privacy laws.

We work with trusted partners including:

• Google AdMob & Analytics: Google Privacy Policy
• Unity Ads: Unity Privacy Policy

3. GDPR & European User Consent

If you reside in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you will be presented with a Consent Management platform (CMP) upon launching our apps. You have the right to accept, manage options, or withdraw your consent for personalized advertising at any time through the in-game settings.

4. Children's Privacy (COPPA)

Our games are intended for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately so we can remove it.

5. Security

We value your trust in providing us non-personal information, and we take commercially reasonable measures to protect it. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.
