Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Shady Cow Games (“we”, “our”, or “us”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our mobile applications and games (“Apps”).
Not all services described in this policy are used in every App. The exact data collected depends on the features used by each App.
Our Apps are developed and published by an independent developer. Some Apps rely on third-party service providers or backend infrastructure to provide certain features.

Advertising Identifiers
Some Apps may use advertising services. In such cases the following identifiers may be collected:

In-App Purchases
If you make purchases within an App, payment processing is handled by the platform provider (Google Play or Apple App Store). We do not collect or store payment information.
3. Account and Backend Data
Some Apps may allow users to create accounts or store data using backend services such as Supabase.
Depending on the functionality of the App, the following information may be stored:

This information is stored securely by backend service providers and is used only to provide the functionality of the App.
4. User Content
Some Apps allow users to create or store content such as notes, lists, settings, or other personal data required for the App’s functionality. This information is stored only to provide the features of the App and is not used for advertising purposes.
5. Third-Party Services
Our Apps rely on third-party services to provide functionality such as analytics, crash reporting, remote configuration, advertising, authentication, cloud storage, and online platform features.
These services may collect and process information such as device identifiers, IP addresses, and usage data according to their own privacy policies.
Services used in our Apps may include, but are not limited to:
- Unity Services (such as Unity Analytics or crash reporting)
- Google AdMob (advertising and advertising mediation)
- Google Play Games Services
- Apple Game Center
- Supabase (backend and database services)
- Google Analytics for Firebase (usage analytics)

Advertising in our Apps may be delivered through Google AdMob mediation, which allows advertisements from multiple advertising partners to be shown. These partners may collect and process data according to their own privacy policies.
Because mediation partners may change over time, the list of advertising partners used in an App may not always be explicitly listed in this Privacy Policy.
Provider privacy policies:
- Unity Privacy Policy

6. Advertising
Some Apps may display advertisements using Google AdMob and its mediation partners.
Advertising partners may collect and use device identifiers and usage data to provide:

Advertising partners may use technologies such as cookies, mobile advertising identifiers, and similar tracking technologies to provide and measure advertisements.
Users located in regions where consent is required (such as the European Economic Area or United Kingdom) may be asked to provide consent through Google’s Consent Management Platform (CMP) before personalized advertising is used.
Users may reset or limit advertising identifiers through their device settings.
