Privacy Policy for GBA Emulator All Retro Games
Last Updated: May 26, 2025
Retro Games Emulator ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you use our mobile application, GBA Emulator All Retro Games ("the App"), available on the Google Play Store. By using the App, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
We strive to minimize data collection to provide a seamless retro gaming experience. The App may collect the following types of information:
- Non-Personal Information:
- Device Information: We may collect details such as your device model, operating system (Android version), and unique device identifiers to optimize the App's performance and compatibility with Gameboy Advance and Gameboy ROMs.
- Usage Data: We collect anonymized data about how you interact with the App, such as features used (e.g., save states, cheat codes), gameplay duration, and crash reports. This helps us improve the App’s functionality.
- Analytics: We use third-party analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics) to collect aggregated data on app usage, such as frequency of use and popular features, to enhance the retro gaming experience.
- Personal Information (Optional):
- Cloud Sync: If you enable cloud synchronization (Pro version), you may link your Google Drive account to back up save files for GBA ROMs or Gameboy games. We only access the minimum data necessary to facilitate this feature and do not store your Google account credentials.
- Support Requests: If you contact us via email or in-app feedback, we may collect your email address and any information you provide to address your inquiry.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the collected data to:
- Ensure the App runs smoothly on your device, supporting Gameboy Advance emulator features like turbo mode and multiplayer.
- Improve the App through analytics, fixing bugs, and optimizing performance for retro games and Pokemon GBA ROM hacks.
- Provide optional cloud sync for your GBA ROMs and Gameboy ROMs save files (Pro version).
- Respond to your support requests or feedback.
3. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties, except in the following cases:
- Third-Party Services: We use trusted services like Google Analytics and Google Drive (for cloud sync) that may process anonymized or limited data. These providers have their own privacy policies.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose data if required by law, such as to comply with a court order or protect our rights.
- Aggregated Data: We may share non-identifiable, aggregated data for statistical or research purposes.
4. Advertisements
The free version of the App includes ads to support development. Ad providers may collect anonymized data (e.g., device ID, ad interactions) to serve relevant ads. You can opt for the Pro version to remove ads entirely.
5. Data Storage and Security
- Data is stored securely on your device or, for cloud sync, on Google Drive’s servers (Pro version).
- We implement industry-standard measures to protect data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. However, no method is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
6. Your Choices
- Cloud Sync: You can disable Google Drive sync in the App settings to avoid sharing any data with Google Drive.
- Analytics: You can opt out of analytics via your device settings or by contacting us.
- Ads: Upgrade to the Pro version for an ad-free experience.
7. Children’s Privacy
The App is not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn such data has been collected, we will delete it promptly.
8. Third-Party Links
The App may contain links to external sites (e.g., Google Play, Google Drive). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these sites.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will notify you of significant changes via the App or email (if provided). The latest version is always available within the App.
