This Privacy Policy explains how Venusapps Private Limited ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you play Four Fall (the "Game"), our classic disc-dropping puzzle game. By downloading or using the Game, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Introduction
Four Fall is a casual mobile game with single-player (versus computer), local two-player, and online multiplayer modes. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information associated with your use of the Game. This policy applies to the Four Fall application on all supported mobile platforms.
You do not need to create an email or password account to play. Online features use anonymous authentication so the Game can identify your session without requiring a traditional login.
2. Information We Collect
Four Fall is built to require as little personal information as possible. Offline modes can be played without providing personal details.
- Information you provide: A display name or nickname and avatar selection used in the Game (including online multiplayer so opponents can see who they are playing), and any information you choose to share if you contact us for support, such as your email address.
- Information collected automatically: Limited technical data such as device type and model, operating system version, app version, IP address, network connection status, and crash or diagnostic logs that help us keep the Game running smoothly. When checking for app updates, the Game may also contact our update services.
- Game progress data (on device): Scores, win/loss stats, achievements, themes, sound and appearance settings, and your local profile are generally stored on your device.
- Online multiplayer data: To enable online rooms, we process a temporary anonymous identifier (from Firebase Authentication), room codes, board/move state, and the display name and avatar you share for that match. Room and session data may be short-lived and removed when a match ends or is cleaned up.
- Voice session data: When you use optional in-game voice chat during an online match, microphone audio is processed in real time to provide communication with your opponent. We also process call/session metadata (for example, connection quality and session timing) needed to operate voice features. Voice chat is only available when both players are in the match and you grant microphone permission.
- Advertising-related data: When ads are shown, advertising and mediation partners may process device and advertising identifiers, approximate location derived from IP address, ad interaction events, and diagnostic signals for ad delivery, fraud prevention, and measurement.
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information, and we do not ask you for data that is not needed to provide or improve the Game.
3. How We Use Information
We use the information described above to:
- Operate, maintain, and provide the features of the Game, including local play, online multiplayer rooms, and optional voice chat.
- Authenticate sessions anonymously and synchronize moves between players in real time.
- Store your preferences and progress on your device.
- Show advertising that helps support the Game.
- Check for available app updates and improve gameplay and performance.
- Diagnose technical problems, fix bugs, and prevent crashes.
- Respond to your questions, support requests, and feedback.
- Protect against fraud, abuse, and security issues.
4. Permissions
Depending on your device and the features you use, the Game may request:
- Internet / network access — required for online multiplayer, voice chat, ads, and update checks.
- Microphone — only for optional in-game voice chat with your opponent.
- Related audio / Bluetooth permissions — as needed by the device and voice SDK to route audio correctly during a call.
You can deny microphone access and still play the Game without voice chat. You can also revoke permissions later in your device settings.
5. Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the Game, such as:
- Google Firebase (Firebase Authentication and Realtime Database, provided by Google LLC) — anonymous sign-in, online multiplayer rooms, and real-time gameplay sync.
- LiveKit — powers optional in-game voice chat and processes live audio and session data to deliver calls. A Venusapps voice-token service may be used to authorize voice sessions for the Game.
- Google AdMob and mediation partners (including Meta, Unity Ads, and InMobi, where available) — ad delivery, fraud prevention, and measurement. These partners may process device identifiers, approximate location, IP address, ad interaction events, and diagnostic signals.
- Platform and hosting providers (such as Apple App Store, Google Play, and cloud services) that support distribution, crash reporting, updates, and storage.
These providers are only permitted to use information as needed to perform services for us. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, and security of our users or our company.
Third-party privacy terms may apply when you use their services through the Game. Where supported, the Game requests non-personalized ads. You can usually manage ad personalization further through your device privacy settings (including resetting or limiting ad identifiers where supported by your platform).
6. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You are responsible for keeping your device and any associated accounts secure.
7. Data Retention
We retain information only for as long as needed to provide the Game and meet legal, operational, and security obligations. Retention periods vary by data type. For example, multiplayer room and voice-session data may be short-lived, while support records and security logs may be retained longer where reasonably necessary. Data stored only on your device remains until you clear app data or uninstall the Game.
When data is no longer required, we delete it, aggregate it, or de-identify it where practical.
8. Children's Privacy
Four Fall is suitable for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in a way that violates applicable laws. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at info@venusapps.com so we can take appropriate action to remove it.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child submitted personal information to us, please contact us and we will review and address the request in accordance with applicable law.
9. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as the right to access, correct, or delete it, or to object to or restrict certain processing. Because most game data is stored on your device, you can often clear it by deleting the Game or resetting its data.
To submit a privacy request, contact us at info@venusapps.com. We may ask for information needed to verify your request and will respond within the timeline required by applicable law.
10. International Data Transfers
We and our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border data transfers in accordance with applicable law.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the Game or for legal and operational reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Game after changes take effect means you accept the revised policy.
