Scope
This Privacy Policy describes how Chicken Road collects, uses, and shares information when you install or use our Android application obtained through Google Play or other approved Android distribution paths.
Processing depends on how you interact with features, optional sign-in flows, diagnostics you choose to submit, and the permissions you approve on your device. Use the headings below as a roadmap to the practices that most often affect users.
What we collect
Illustrative categories may include:
- Account identifiers and profile basics when authentication is available
- In-app diagnostics and coarse device metadata when you consent to troubleshooting bundles
- Preference records tied to personalization you enable inside the interface
- Support conversations you initiate from within the mobile experience
We avoid expanding collection beyond what the experience reasonably needs. If a feature is optional, we aim to describe the extra data at the point you turn it on.
Why we use information
Processing supports activities such as:
- Delivering Chicken Road features, synchronizing preferences, and maintaining session continuity
- Improving reliability, measuring aggregate usage, and addressing defects
- Communicating important notices about the product
- Complying with legal obligations and enforcing our terms
Sharing and subprocessors
We may share information with infrastructure partners (for example hosting, messaging, analytics, identity, or payment processors) that support the service. Those partners process data under contracts that require appropriate safeguards and limit use to the services they provide.
We may also disclose information when law, regulation, or a valid legal process requires it, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect users, the public, or Chicken Road.
Retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above, including backups, fraud prevention, and dispute resolution. Retention windows differ by record type; when data is no longer necessary, we delete or de-identify it according to internal schedules.
Security
We apply administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information. No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure, so we encourage you to keep your device updated and review permissions regularly.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export personal information, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can usually manage notifications and some permissions through Android settings.
If you need help exercising a right, contact us through the in-app support entry or the channel described on the Play listing. We may ask for limited information to verify your request.
International transfers
Your information may be processed in countries other than where you live. When we transfer personal information across borders, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or other mechanisms recognized by applicable law.
Children
Chicken Road is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us so we can take appropriate steps.
Changes
We may update this policy to reflect product or legal changes. When updates are material, we will provide notice through the app, the Play listing, or other reasonable means. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised policy where permitted by law.
How this relates to Play
Google Play publishes a Data safety overview that summarizes categories of information. This page provides additional context about purposes, disclosures, retention, rights, transfers, children's privacy, and security so you have a fuller picture than the short storefront summary alone.
