Rune Riot — Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 16, 2026
CrashBytes ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Rune Riot mobile application for both iOS (via the Apple App Store) and Android (via Google Play). This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information across both platforms.
Information We Collect
Sign in with Apple
When you choose to sign in with Apple, we receive a unique user identifier and, optionally, your name. We use this solely to identify your account and personalize your in-game display name. We do not receive or store your email address unless you choose to share it.
iCloud (iOS)
If you sign in with Apple, your game progress (level completion, scores, currency, and cosmetic purchases) is backed up to your personal iCloud account using Apple's iCloud Key-Value Storage. This data is stored in your private iCloud container and is not accessible to us.
Firebase Auth + Firestore (Android)
On Android, the user signs in anonymously with Firebase Auth; a randomized user ID is created; game progress is synced to Firestore. No email address, name, or other personally identifying information is collected through anonymous sign-in. The randomized user ID is used only to associate your game progress with your device and cannot be used to identify you outside of the game.
Play Games Services (Android)
If you opt into Play Games, your Google Play Games profile name and ID may be used for leaderboards. Opting in is optional; you can play the game without connecting a Play Games profile.
Analytics (Firebase Analytics)
We use Google Firebase Analytics to understand how players interact with the game. This includes:
- Gameplay events (levels started, completed, or failed)
- Feature usage (shop visits, daily challenges, power-up usage)
- App performance metrics
- Device type and operating system version
Analytics data is collected in aggregate and does not personally identify you. You can opt out of analytics by limiting ad tracking in your iOS Settings, or on Android by disabling usage & diagnostics data sharing in Settings > Google > All services > Usage & diagnostics (or by clearing the advertising ID under Settings > Privacy > Ads).
Crash Reporting (Firebase Crashlytics)
We use Firebase Crashlytics to detect and fix app crashes. When a crash occurs, Crashlytics collects:
- Device state at the time of the crash
- Device model and OS version
- Stack trace information
Crash reports do not contain personally identifiable information.
In-App Purchases
Purchases (including gem packs and themes) are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store on iOS, and by Google through Google Play Billing on Android. We do not collect, process, or store any payment information, credit card numbers, or billing details on either platform.
Home-Screen Widget (Android)
On Android, Rune Riot provides an optional home-screen widget (built with Jetpack Glance) that displays game progress already stored on your device. The widget does not transmit any data off the device and does not collect any additional information.
Information We Do NOT Collect
- Location data
- Contacts or address book
- Photos, camera, or microphone access
- Health or fitness data
- Browsing history
- Advertising identifiers (we do not serve ads)
- Email addresses (unless voluntarily shared via Sign in with Apple)
Data Storage and Security
Game progress is stored locally on your device and, optionally, in your personal iCloud account (iOS) or in Firestore under an anonymous Firebase Auth user ID (Android). Analytics and crash data are stored on Google Firebase servers and are subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
Children's Privacy
Rune Riot is rated 4+ and is suitable for all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The game does not require an account to play — Sign in with Apple (iOS), Firebase anonymous sign-in (Android), and Play Games Services (Android) are all optional.
Third-Party Services
- Apple (iOS) — Sign in with Apple, iCloud, App Store (purchases)
- Google (Android) — Google Play Billing (purchases), Play Games Services (optional leaderboards)
- Google Firebase — Analytics, Crashlytics, Firebase Auth (Android, anonymous), Firestore (Android, cloud sync)
Your Rights
You can:
- Play the game without signing in (no data leaves your device)
- Sign out at any time to stop iCloud sync (iOS) or Firestore sync (Android)
- Decline or disconnect Play Games Services at any time (Android)
- Delete the app to remove all local data
- Request deletion of analytics data or your anonymous Firestore profile by contacting us

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
