Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Meteor Blast (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is a free mobile arcade game published by Pocket Pixel Games. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you download and use Meteor Blast on Android devices.


By installing or using the app, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.


2. No user accounts

Meteor Blast does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide your real name, email address, or phone number to play. We do not operate a registration or profile system inside the app.


3. Information stored on your device only

The following data is saved locally on your device using Android/Unity local storage to run the game and remember your progress. This data is not uploaded to our own servers by the game code:


Game score and coins

Level progress and upgrade levels such as damage, speed, or power

Sound, music, and vibration preferences

In-game settings and ad-related timers used for rewarded features


You can remove this local data by clearing the app’s storage in Android Settings or uninstalling the app.


4. Information collected and shared by third-party services

To show advertisements, measure app performance, and improve the game, we use third-party SDKs that may collect and share certain information automatically when you use the app. This matches what we declare in Google Play’s Data safety section.


4.1 Google AdMob — Advertising

We use Google AdMob to display ads, including banner, interstitial, app open, and rewarded video ads.


AdMob and its partners may collect and share, among other things:


Device or other IDs, such as the Android Advertising ID

Approximate location, such as coarse location derived from IP or device settings where applicable

App activity related to ads, such as ad views and interactions

Diagnostics for ad delivery and fraud prevention


Purposes: Advertising or marketing, analytics, fraud prevention, security, and compliance.


Learn more: Google Privacy Policy | Google Ads & data


In regions where required, we use Google’s User Messaging Platform, also known as UMP, to request consent for personalized ads where applicable.


4.2 Unity Analytics — Analytics

We use Unity Gaming Services Analytics and related Unity analytics components to understand how players use the app.


Unity may collect and share:


Device or other IDs, such as analytics or installation identifiers

App activity, such as session start/end, level start/complete/fail/quit, scores, coins, power-up usage, and settings button interactions

Diagnostics, such as device model, operating system version, and app version


Purposes: Analytics, app functionality, fraud prevention, security, and compliance where applicable.

5. What we do not collect

Meteor Blast and our integrated SDKs, as configured in the app, do not intentionally collect from you:


Email address, phone number, or postal address

Login credentials or social media accounts

Photos, videos, contacts, calendar, or SMS

In-app search history or lists of other installed apps

Payment or credit card information

Health, political, or other sensitive personal categories


The game is free. Any purchases, if added in the future, would be handled by Google Play.


We do not collect user-generated content such as chat messages or public profiles.


6. How we use information

Information processed by third parties is used to:


Deliver and measure advertisements

Analyze gameplay and fix issues

Prevent fraud and abuse of ad systems

Maintain and improve game stability


We do not sell your personal information in a way that identifies you by name because the app does not collect your name.


7. Legal bases for EEA/UK users

Where GDPR or similar laws apply, processing is based on:


Legitimate interests for analytics, security, and non-personalized operations

Consent for personalized advertising, where requested through the consent flow

Contract for providing the game you requested


8. Data retention

Local game data remains on your device until you clear app data or uninstall the app.


Third-party partners such as Google and Unity retain data according to their own policies and settings.


We do not operate a central database of player accounts for this app.


9. Data deletion requests

The app does not provide an in-app account to delete. Because we do not host user accounts, most personal data tied to analytics or ads is held by Google and Unity.


You may:


Reset Advertising ID: Android Settings → Google → Ads → Reset Advertising ID

Opt out of personalized ads: Android Settings → Google → Ads → Opt out of Ads Personalization

Clear local game data: Android Settings → Apps → Meteor Blast → Storage → Clear data

Uninstall the app


To request deletion of data processed by our partners, use their privacy tools. For questions about this app, contact:[arunkumarjangra@gmail.com]).


10. Children’s privacy

Meteor Blast is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in a way that requires parental consent beyond what third-party SDKs process under their policies.


If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact [arunkumarjangra@gmail.com].


11. Security

Data transmitted between the app and third-party services uses encryption in transit, such as HTTPS/TLS, where supported by those services.

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure. We rely on reputable SDK providers for industry-standard practices.


12. International transfers

Third-party partners may process data in countries other than your own, including the United States, under their privacy policies and appropriate safeguards.


13. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Effective date” at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
