Running Pillow Games Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Running Pillow handles information when you use any mobile game, application, website, or related online service published or operated by Running Pillow that links to this Policy (collectively, the “Services”). It applies to our current and future games and to features such as advertising, in-app purchases, cloud saves, player accounts, analytics, multiplayer, leaderboards, and in-game communication where available.
1. Who we are
The Services are operated by Running Pillow (Jan Halamíček), Czech Republic. Running Pillow is the controller of information processed directly for the operation of the Services.
Privacy contact: runningpillow@gmail.com
2. Information we process
Depending on which Service you use and which features are available, the following categories of information may be processed:
- Account and profile information: a player or platform identifier, display name, and limited profile information made available by a sign-in provider if you choose to use a supported sign-in method.
- Game and online-service information: game title, game progress, inventory, achievements, leaderboard information, multiplayer session data, interactions with other players, and messages you choose to send through in-game communication features.
- Purchase information: product purchased, transaction status, and purchase history needed to provide and restore in-app purchases. Payment card details are processed by Google Play and are not provided to Running Pillow.
- Device and technical information: device type, operating system and app version, language, IP address, approximate location derived from the IP address, advertising or other device identifiers, network information, and consent choices.
- Diagnostics and usage information: app and game events, feature usage, ad interactions, crash logs, performance information, and other diagnostics used to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the Services.
- Support information: your email address and the content of your message if you contact us for support, privacy, or account assistance.
3. Why we process information
We process information to:
- provide, maintain, and secure our Services and their online features;
- save and restore game progress and in-app purchases;
- enable multiplayer, leaderboard, and communication features;
- show, measure, limit, and protect advertising;
- detect fraud, abuse, cheating, invalid ad traffic, and technical issues;
- analyze performance and improve the Services;
- respond to support, privacy, and deletion requests; and
- comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights.
4. Advertising and consent
Some of our Services use the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) to display ads. Google and its advertising partners may process device identifiers, IP address, approximate location, diagnostic information, and information about ad views and interactions to provide ads, measure performance, prevent fraud, and, where permitted, personalize advertising.
Where required by law, the applicable Service presents a consent message before using information for personalized advertising or accessing non-essential local device storage. You may be offered a choice between personalized and non-personalized ads. You can review or change available privacy choices from the privacy options entry point in the applicable Service, where available, or through your device and Google account settings.

5. Service providers
We use service providers that process information on our behalf or for their own stated purposes. Depending on the features and configuration available in the Service you use, these may include:
- Google LLC: Google Play services, Google Play Billing, Google Mobile Ads (AdMob), the User Messaging Platform for privacy choices, and Firebase services such as Analytics, Crashlytics, Cloud Messaging, Authentication, Remote Config, and cloud-hosted databases where enabled. See the Google Privacy Policy.
- Microsoft PlayFab: player accounts and identifiers, cloud saves, game progress, inventory, virtual currencies, purchases, leaderboards, multiplayer-related information, telemetry, and other backend features where enabled. See the Microsoft Privacy Statement .
- Unity Technologies: technology used to run our games and, where enabled, provide diagnostics and analytics. See the Unity Privacy Policy.
- Meta Platforms: Facebook sign-in or related services, where that option is available. See the Meta Privacy Policy.
- Hosting and infrastructure providers: services needed to operate online features, store game data, and keep the Services secure.
We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect users or the service, or as part of a corporate reorganization or transfer. We do not sell personal information for money.
6. Legal bases for users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland
Where applicable, we rely on:
- Performance of a contract to provide the Services, online features, support, and purchases you request;
- Consent for personalized advertising and other processing where consent is legally required;
- Legitimate interests in securing, maintaining, diagnosing, and improving the Services, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights; and
- Legal obligations such as accounting, consumer protection, and responding to lawful requests.
7. Children
Our games may have different content ratings and intended age groups, as stated in their respective store listings. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law. Where a user is known to require child-directed treatment, personalized advertising based on that user's interests is not used and advertising requests must be handled in an age-appropriate manner.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child has provided personal information without the consent required by law, contact us at runningpillow@gmail.com.
8. Data retention and deletion
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above. Game, app, and account information may be retained while an account or online profile remains active. Support records, purchase records, security logs, and backups may be kept for a limited additional period when necessary for legal, accounting, fraud-prevention, dispute, or technical reasons. Service providers apply their own retention periods under their privacy policies.
You may request deletion of your account and associated personal information by emailing runningpillow@gmail.com . Please include “Running Pillow Data Deletion Request” in the subject, the name of the relevant game, and enough information for us to identify the relevant account. We may need to verify that you control the account before fulfilling a request. We may retain limited information where required by law or necessary for security, fraud-prevention, or dispute resolution.
9. Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal information, receive a portable copy, withdraw consent, or appeal a decision. You may also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
To exercise a right, contact runningpillow@gmail.com. Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that occurred before the withdrawal.
10. International data transfers
Our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where required, appropriate safeguards are used for international data transfers, such as adequacy decisions or approved contractual protections.
11. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our Services, service providers, or legal requirements change. We will publish the updated version at this URL and revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes may also be communicated in the applicable Service or through another appropriate channel.
