Hyper Drift: Arcade — Privacy Policy

Effective date: November 6, 2026

In short

  • Hyper Drift: Arcade does not collect personal data. It asks for no account, sign-up, name, email, photos, location permission or microphone.
  • Game progress is stored only on your device; it is never sent to us or anyone else.
  • The game shows ads through Google AdMob. Every ad request is made for non-personalized ads, with Google's child-directed treatment tag and the strictest content rating (G). The app does not request the advertising identifier (IDFA) and never asks for tracking permission.
  • There are no in-app purchases in the app.
  • There are no third-party analytics tools.
  • Web demo (huseyindol.com/games/hyper-drift-arcade): no ads, no purchases and no analytics tools. Progress is kept only in your browser's local storage (localStorage). The site hosting the page keeps its own server logs under its own policy.

1. Who we are

Hyper Drift: Arcade is a top-down 2D drift game developed by independent developer Hüseyin DOL. This policy applies to the iPhone app and the web demo. Contact: huseyindol@gmail.com.

2. What the game itself handles

To work, the game stores only the following information locally on your device. It never leaves the device, is not sent to us and is not shared with anyone:

  • Progress: best drift scores per course and mode (normal / child) and garage choices
  • Settings: player name, steering mode, sound and volume, child mode preferences
  • The number of finished runs (for ad frequency)

The game does not ask for or collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, photos, voice recordings, precise location, contacts or any other personal data. There is no chat, sharing, user-generated content or social media in the game.

3. Advertising (Google AdMob)

Hyper Drift: Arcade is free and supported by ads. Ads are served by Google's ad service Google AdMob through the Google Mobile Ads SDK built into the app.

Settings we use for ad requests. The app makes every ad request with these settings:

  • Child-directed treatment (Google's "child-directed treatment" and "under age of consent" tags): according to Google, these tags turn off personalized (interest-based) ads and remarketing, stop requests to third-party ad measurement services, and prevent the advertising identifier (IDFA) from being transmitted.
  • A request for non-personalized ads.
  • Strictest content rating: only ads suitable for general audiences (G).
  • The app does not request Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission, so iOS does not give the app an advertising identifier. There is no tracking in the app.

Information Google may process. According to Google's data disclosure for the App Store, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may process the following information from the device to serve and measure ads, prevent fraud and improve its service:

  • The IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of the device (not precise location)
  • A device identifier: the advertising identifier or another app- or developer-scoped device identifier. Because of the settings above, the advertising identifier (IDFA) is not transmitted; Google may use an app-scoped identifier.
  • Product interaction: app launches and interaction with ads (e.g. an ad being shown or closed, video views)
  • Advertising data: the ads that were shown
  • Diagnostics: the SDK's crash logs and performance information (e.g. launch time)

How Google uses this information is governed by its own policies: Google Privacy Policy · How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

When ads appear.

  • Ads never appear while driving; they are shown only after a run is finished.
  • The first 3 runs are ad-free; after that one ad every 3 finished runs (the first ad appears at the 6th finished run) and no more than 6 per session. There are no rewarded ads and no banners.
  • Tapping an ad may take you outside the app (to the App Store or a website).
  • Without an internet connection no ads are shown and the game simply continues.

4. In-app purchases

There are no in-app purchases in the app; neither the game screens nor Settings contain purchase offers. The app does not ask for or process any payment information.

5. Sound

The game's engine and drift sounds are generated entirely on your device and work offline; nothing is recorded and no data is sent. Sound can be turned off or lowered in Settings.

6. Analytics and crash reports

The app contains no third-party analytics or crash-reporting tools (apart from the Google Mobile Ads SDK's own diagnostics described above). If "Share With App Developers" is turned on on your iPhone, Apple may share crash and performance reports that contain no personal information with us; this is managed by Apple and can be turned off in iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements.

7. Children's privacy

Because children may also play Hyper Drift: Arcade, we designed the game not to collect personal data. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. We aim to follow the principles of the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the EU General Data Protection Regulation's provisions on children (GDPR) and Turkey's Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK).

  • Every ad request is made non-personalized and with Google's child-directed treatment tag for COPPA (see section 3).
  • Ads never appear while driving; they are shown only at the end of a run.
  • There are no accounts, chat, user-generated content or social media in the game.

8. Data retention and deletion

Everything the game stores stays on your device. To delete it, simply remove the app from your device; this deletes all of the game's data (scores, player name and settings).

Information processed by Google for its ad service is retained according to the periods and rules in Google's privacy policy. For requests about this you can contact Google or us (huseyindol@gmail.com); we will be happy to help.

9. Your rights

Depending on where you live (e.g. GDPR, KVKK), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data and to object to its processing. Because we do not collect personal data, we hold no records about you; you are still welcome to send us any questions or requests at the address below. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

10. Changes

We may update this policy when the app or the law changes. The current version is always published on this page with its effective date. If there is a significant change (for example, a new type of data or a new ad network), we will also mention it in the app update notes.
