This Privacy Policy describes how the mobile game Thoda Kam Karo ("the App", "we", "us") handles information. The App is published by sainilabs. By installing and using the App, you agree to the practices described here.
Thoda Kam Karo is a single-player bargaining game. We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not collect your name, email, phone number, contacts, photos, location, or files. The App works fully offline except for serving ads.
On your device only (never sent to us): The markets you have unlocked, your best stars in each market, running totals (markets shopped, deals made, three-star deals, rupees saved), the things you have bought in the game (your "ghar"), which shopkeepers you have bought from, your last daily-market result and streak, your sound, voice, music and haptics settings, and whether you have seen the how-to-play card are stored locally using Android's standard app storage. This data never leaves your device and is removed when you uninstall the App. The shopkeepers' voices and the music are generated on your device: the music by the App itself, and the voices either by the App or by your phone's own text-to-speech voices, using only voice data already installed on the phone. The App does not record audio and does not use the microphone.
Collected by our advertising partner (Google AdMob): The App shows ads through Google AdMob. To serve and measure ads, Google and its partners may collect and process:
We do not receive this data in a form that identifies you. Google's handling of it is governed by Google's own privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
An ad may be shown between markets, after a market's summary — never during a negotiation. One ad is optional and rewarded: you may choose to watch a video to call "Mummy", who settles the stall in front of you at the shopkeeper's real price, once per market. Declining costs you nothing.
In regions where it is required (such as the EEA and the UK), the App presents a consent request, provided by Google's User Messaging Platform, before any personalized ads are served. If you decline, you will still see non-personalized ads. You can reopen these choices any time from the App's Privacy options menu entry where it is offered.
You can reset or limit ad personalization at any time in your device settings under Settings → Google → Ads, or Settings → Privacy → Ads.
The App has no in-app purchases. The rupees, prices and budgets in the game are play money: nothing in the App can be bought or sold for real money, and nothing is won or lost outside the game.
The App is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country) and is not enrolled in the "Designed for Families" programme. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the App serves ads, please supervise use by minors.
The only data the App itself stores is the on-device game progress described above. It is retained until you clear the App's data or uninstall the App. Ad-related data is retained by Google according to Google's policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted at this same URL with an updated "Last updated" date.
