## 1. Description of Services & AdMob Ads
**Greed** is a free-to-play, ad-supported application. This service is provided by the developer at no cost and is intended for use as-is.
To fund development and provide free services like rewarded revives and extra features, the Application integrates third-party software development kits (SDKs), specifically **Google AdMob**.
* **Interstitial Ads:** Full-screen advertisements served at natural transition points (such as returning to the home screen after completing a drilling run).
* **Rewarded Video Ads:** Optional interactive advertisements that users can choose to watch in exchange for in-game benefits, such as reviving after a crash.
