This Privacy Policy describes how Cricket Manager 2026 (the "App", "we", "us", or "our") handles information when you install and use the App on a mobile device. By using the App, you agree to the practices described below. If you do not agree, please do not install or use the App.
1. Summary
Cricket Manager 2026 is a single-player offline cricket management game. The App itself does not run any servers we own, does not collect personal information directly, and does not require an account to play. The App may use Google services (Google Play Games, Google Play Billing, and Google AdMob) which collect and process data under their own terms. Your game saves are stored on your device only.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
We, the developer, do not directly collect, store, or transmit any of the following:
- Your name, email address, phone number, or postal address
- Your contacts, photos, microphone, or camera
- Your precise location (GPS)
- Any payment card information
- Any browsing history outside of the App
3. Information Stored on Your Device
The App stores game data locally on your device using standard browser storage (localStorage / WebView storage). This data stays on your device, does not leave it via any system we control, and includes:
- Your saved game progress (squads, season state, finances, manager career)
- Your in-app preferences (light/dark theme, settings)
- A flag recording whether you have purchased the Full Season Sim unlock
You can delete all locally stored data at any time by clearing the App's storage in your device settings or by uninstalling the App.
4. Third-Party Services
The App integrates with the following third-party services. These services collect and process data under their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read.
4.1 Google Play Services & Google Play Games
If you choose to sign in with Google Play Games (using the in-app sign-in button), Google may receive and process your Google Play Games player ID, gamertag, and gameplay events such as achievements and leaderboard entries. We do not store this data on our own servers. Google's handling of this data is governed by:
4.2 Google Play Billing
The App offers a one-time in-app purchase ("Full Season Sim Unlock", US$4.99 or local equivalent). When you make a purchase, Google Play Billing processes the transaction directly. Google receives your purchase token and transaction details; we receive only a confirmation that the purchase succeeded so the App can unlock the feature. We never see or store your payment card details. See the Google Privacy Policy and the Google Play Terms of Service.
4.3 Google AdMob
The App displays advertisements served by Google AdMob. AdMob may collect a limited set of data to serve and measure ads, including your device's advertising identifier (AAID), IP address, ad interaction events, approximate location derived from IP address, and basic device information (model, OS version). On Android 13 and later, AdMob respects the Permission for Notifications and Advertising ID controls in your device settings. You can reset or limit your advertising identifier at any time in Android settings under Settings → Privacy → Ads (the exact path varies by manufacturer).
Where applicable (EEA, UK, Switzerland, and other regions where consent is required), the App displays a Google-provided consent message asking whether you agree to personalised advertising. You can change your choice at any time from the in-app menu.
Learn more in the Google Ads Privacy Policy and AdMob Help.
5. Children's Privacy
Cricket Manager 2026 is rated for general audiences. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. AdMob is configured to comply with Google Play Families and applicable child-protection laws (including COPPA in the United States and GDPR-K in the European Economic Area).
If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App's third-party services, please contact us at the email below and we will work with the relevant provider to address the issue.
6. Permissions Used by the App
The App requests only the minimum Android permissions required for it to function:
- Internet access — required to load advertisements via AdMob, to sign in with Google Play Games, and to process Google Play Billing purchases.
- Network state — required so the App can avoid serving ads when the device is offline.
- Advertising ID — used by Google AdMob as described above.
The App does not request access to your contacts, microphone, camera, location, calendar, SMS, photos, or files.
7. Data Retention
Game progress stored locally on your device remains there until you clear App data or uninstall the App. We do not retain any data on our servers because the App does not transmit data to servers we operate. Data held by Google through the third-party services described in Section 4 is retained according to Google's policies.
8. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the UK Data Protection Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), or similar legislation. Because we, the developer, do not collect personal information directly, most data-subject requests should be made to the relevant third-party service:
- For Google Play Games, Google Play Billing, or AdMob data, contact Google at policies.google.com/privacy or via your Google Account.
- To delete game progress, clear App data on your device or uninstall the App.
- To opt out of personalised ads, change your selection in the in-app consent dialog (EEA/UK/CH) or limit ad tracking in your device settings.
If you would still like to contact us about a privacy matter, you may do so at the address in Section 11 below.
9. International Users
Because the App is offered globally through Google Play, your data may be processed by Google in any country in which Google operates. By using the App you acknowledge this is the case. We, the developer, do not transfer personal data internationally because we do not collect it.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in the law, the App's functionality, or the third-party services it uses. Any updated policy will be posted at the same URL with a new "Last updated" date at the top. If the changes are material we will, where reasonably possible, provide a notice within the App. Continued use of the App after the policy is updated constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
