Privacy Policy
Aussie Rules Slide Tactics · Last updated 7 October 2026
This policy explains what information the Aussie Rules Slide Tactics game ("the game", "we") collects, why, and what you can do about it. We collect only what the game needs to run: your game account, your progress, and what's needed to show ads and process purchases. We never ask for your real name, email address, phone number, contacts, location or photos.
1. Information we collect
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| A device identifier created by the game when you first play | To create your game account automatically and recognise it next time (there's no sign-up or password). |
| The player name and team name you choose | Shown to other players on the monthly leaderboard and in online matches. Please don't use your real full name. |
| Game progress: coins, level, items you own or equip, formations, career stats, leaderboard points and awards | To save your progress and run the game fairly (it's kept on our server so it can't be lost or altered on the phone). |
| Online match data: your moves, scores and the preset quick-chat messages you send | To play online matches between two players. Chat is limited to preset messages; there is no free typing. |
| Purchase records (which item was bought) | To give you items you buy. Payments are handled entirely by Google Play or the Apple App Store; we never see or store your card or payment details. |
| Basic technical data (IP address, time of connection) in server logs | To keep the server running and secure. Logs are kept briefly and not used for anything else. |
2. Advertising
The game shows ads using Google AdMob. To show and measure ads, AdMob may collect your device's advertising ID, IP address and general device information, and may use cookies or similar technology. Ads may be personalised based on this unless you opt out. You can reset your advertising ID or opt out of personalised ads in your phone's settings (Android: Settings › Privacy › Ads; iPhone: Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking). Where the law requires it, the game asks for your consent before personalised ads are shown.
See how Google uses data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Buying "Remove Ads" stops the automatic ads between games. Ads you choose to watch for rewards are always optional.
3. How information is shared
- Other players see your player name, team name, team shield, leaderboard position and, in online matches, your moves and quick-chat messages.
- Service providers who run parts of the game for us: Vultr (server hosting, Sydney, Australia), Google AdMob (ads), Google Play and Apple (purchases).
- We do not sell your information, and we don't share it with anyone else unless the law requires it.
4. Where it's stored and how long
Game account data is stored on our server in Sydney, Australia, and kept while your account is active. If an account isn't used for 24 months it may be deleted. Some information also stays on your phone (your saved settings and progress) until you uninstall the game.
5. Your choices and deleting your data
- You can change your player and team name at any time in your profile.
- You can mute the opponent's quick chat during matches.
- Delete your account in the game: Profile (tap your team, top left) › DELETE ACCOUNT. This removes your account, progress, items and leaderboard place from our server straight away and permanently.
- Or ask us to delete your account, or for a copy of your data, by contacting us (below) with your team name. We'll do it within 30 days. See how to delete your account.
- Uninstalling the game removes the data stored on your phone.
6. Children
The game is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them. The game doesn't ask for personal details from anyone. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we'll delete it.
7. Security
All communication between the game and our server is encrypted (https). Access to the server is restricted. No method of storage is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change this policy we'll update the date at the top of this page, and for important changes we'll let players know in the game.
9. Contact
