Null Derivative Studio operates the mobile game application Pillar Ritual ("App"). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use our App.
Pillar Ritual is a standalone puzzle game that displays ads using Google AdMob. We integrate Google AdMob as a third-party service provider in the App. No other third-party SDKs are used. By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy.
Information Collection and Use
To provide and improve the App, limited information may be collected either by us or by Google AdMob for advertising and app performance purposes. We do not directly collect personally identifiable information such as your name, postal address, or phone number.
Game-related data such as your progress (for example, unlocked levels, settings, and local preferences) is stored locally on your device using standard application storage mechanisms. This data is not transmitted to our own servers.
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The App uses Google AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob may collect and process data such as:
- Advertising identifiers (for example, Google Advertising ID)
- Device information (model, OS version, language, network information)
- IP address and approximate location
- App usage data related to ad views and interactions
This information may be used to provide personalized or non-personalized ads, to limit the number of times an ad is shown, and to measure ad performance. You can learn how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services here: Google’s Partner Sites policy, and review AdMob’s privacy information here: Google Privacy Policy and AdMob Help Center.
Depending on your region and legal requirements, you may be shown a consent form (for example, a UMP/consent dialog) when you first launch the App. This dialog allows you to choose whether you wish to receive personalized ads or non-personalized ads, or to refuse certain types of data processing where applicable. Your choices can be updated using your device or OS advertising preferences settings (for example, “Opt out of Ads Personalization” on Android).
Third-Party Services
Apart from Google AdMob, the current version of Pillar Ritual does not integrate additional third-party advertising, analytics, or social network SDKs. If we introduce other third-party services in a future update, this Privacy Policy will be updated to describe which services are used and how they handle data.
Log Data
In case of an error in the App, we may access basic technical information provided by the operating system or by the app store platform (for example, aggregated crash or ANR reports available through stores such as Google Play Console). This information may include your device model, operating system version, and error details. We use this information only to diagnose and fix technical issues and do not use it to personally identify you.
Cookies
The App itself does not set cookies. However, Google AdMob and related Google services may use cookies or similar technologies for ad delivery, frequency capping, and performance measurement. You can manage or opt out of certain personalized ads and cookies through your device settings or via Google Ads Settings (where available).
Children’s Privacy
Our App is not specifically directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child has provided us with personal information or is seeing inappropriate ads, please contact us so that we can review and take appropriate action, which may include updating our settings or contacting Google AdMob.
Security
We value your trust and aim to keep your information secure. Because most gameplay data is stored locally on your device and AdMob data is processed by Google, we do not operate our own user accounts or remote databases for Pillar Ritual. However, please remember that no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security against all risks.
Links to Other Sites
The App may contain links to external websites (for example, a link to our studio homepage, support page, or store listing). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. These external sites are not operated by us. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of these websites. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. You are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. We will notify you of changes by updating the “Last updated” date below. Significant changes may also be highlighted in an App update description or in-game notice.
