Hex Dominion Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-10-22
Hex Dominion (the "game", the "app") is a turn-based strategy game for Android published by Hiran Travassos ("we"), the controller of the data described here. For anything about privacy, contact hirantravassos@gmail.com.
This policy follows the Brazilian General Data Protection Law (LGPD, Law 13,709/2018) and, for users in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, the GDPR.
1. Summary
- We do not ask for your name, email or phone number and there are no accounts or logins.
- Your match progress and settings stay on your device.
- The game shows ads (Google AdMob) to people without a subscription. The monthly "Remove ads" subscription turns ads off.
- Personalized ads are off until you turn them on in the game Settings.
- Payments are handled by Google Play. We never receive your card details.
2. Data we process
| Data | Purpose | Who receives it |
|---|---|---|
| Anonymous installation code (a random number created the first time you open the app, not linked to you) | Tie your subscription to this installation and handle privacy requests | Our server |
| Purchase token and product identifier issued by Google Play | Confirm with Google that the subscription is active and remove ads | Our server and Google Play |
| Subscription state (active, canceled, grace period, on hold, paused, expired), expiry date, auto-renewal, verification dates | Know whether ads should be shown | Our server |
| IP address and time of requests to our server (technical logs) | Security, abuse prevention and diagnosing faults. Kept for up to 30 days. | Our server and our hosting provider |
| Data collected by the Google ads SDK (AdMob), only when there is no active subscription: IP address (used to estimate general location), ad and product interactions (such as launches and taps), SDK diagnostic information, and device identifiers (Android advertising ID and app set ID) | Show ads, measure results, prevent fraud | |
| Your privacy choices (personalized ads on/off, answer to the consent form) | Respect your choices | Your device and Google (User Messaging Platform) |
We do not collect precise location, contacts, photos, microphone, camera or health data.
3. Ads
The game shows a banner during play and a full-screen ad before each match, served by Google AdMob. People with an active subscription see no ads and the ads SDK is not even started.
Where the law requires it (for example the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom) we show Google's consent form (UMP) before any ad. You can review your choice at any time in Settings > Review ad consent, when available, and switch Personalized ads on or off in the same Settings screen. Without consent we only request non-personalized ads, or no ads.
You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in Android settings (Google > Ads). See how Google uses data from partner apps at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and Google's policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
4. Subscription and payments
The monthly "Remove ads" subscription is billed and managed by Google Play, with the local price set in Google Play. You cancel or change it in Google Play > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions. We only receive the purchase token and the subscription state, never payment details. Refunds follow Google Play's refund policy.
5. Legal bases (LGPD art. 7 / GDPR art. 6)
- Performance of a contract: verifying and honoring the subscription you bought.
- Consent: personalized ads and the processing Google does for that purpose. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interest: security, fraud and abuse prevention, diagnostics.
- Legal obligation: keeping transaction records for the period the law requires.
6. Sharing and international transfers
We share data only with: Google (Google Play and AdMob); the company that hosts our server (Railway, with servers in the United States); and the storage provider that holds database backups, which are kept in private storage. Because these providers may be outside your country, your data may be transferred internationally with the safeguards required by law. We do not sell data.
7. How long we keep it
- Server technical logs: up to 30 days.
- Subscription data: while the subscription is active and afterwards for up to 5 years to meet legal obligations and settle disputes, then deleted or anonymized.
- Data on your device: until you uninstall the game or clear the app data.
8. Your rights
Under the LGPD (art. 18) you may ask for: confirmation that we process your data; access; correction; anonymization, blocking or deletion; portability; information about who we share data with; information about the option not to consent and its consequences; and withdrawal of consent. Users in the EEA and the UK also have the GDPR rights (access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, objection) and may complain to their data protection authority.
How to ask: write to hirantravassos@gmail.com with the support code shown in Settings > Privacy (it is your anonymous installation code; without it we cannot find your data, precisely because we do not know who you are). We answer within 15 days. To delete your data use the same contact; cancel the subscription in Google Play first so it is not billed again. In Brazil you can also complain to the National Data Protection Authority (ANPD).
Because the game has no accounts there is no in-app "delete account": uninstalling the game removes the data on your device, and an email request removes the data on our server.
9. Children
Hex Dominion is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child gave us data, write to the contact above and we will delete it.
10. Security
The app talks to our server over HTTPS. Access to the server and database is restricted, and the subscription is always confirmed with Google on the server. No system is perfectly secure; in case of a relevant incident we will notify affected people and the authorities as the law requires.
11. Changes
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows the latest version. Important changes will be announced in the app or on the store page.
