Version 1.0 - Last updated: 5 November 2026

This policy applies to DinoDash, published by Jericho Crosby (Chalwk) (“the Developer”) on Google Play. The app is an endless runner game for Android.

1. Summary

The app collects no personal information about anyone. There is no account system, no analytics, no advertising, and no telemetry. The app does not transmit anything off your device. Everything you do in the game, including your high scores, coins, unlocked skins, and settings, is stored only on your device.

2. Data stored on your device

The app stores the following in its own private storage area, which Android protects from other apps:

  • Your game profile, including your coin balance, best scores, total distance run, and which dinosaur skins you have unlocked or selected.
  • Your game settings, including difficulty, time of day, weather effects, control scheme, and preferences for sound, music, haptics, screen shake, and high-contrast visuals.

None of this is sent anywhere by the app. It is used only to display your progress and preferences back to you inside the app.

3. Device access and security

Anyone who can unlock and use your device can open the app and see your saved progress. The app has no separate lock; if you want one, use your device’s screen lock.

4. Permissions

The only permission the app declares is VIBRATE. This is used solely to provide haptic feedback (short vibrations) when you jump, collect coins, or crash, if you have haptics enabled in the settings.

The app does not request access to your contacts, camera, location, or files.

5. Network activity

The app does not request any network permission and does not open any network connection. It does not contact any server operated by the Developer, send crash reports, diagnostics, or usage data, or download updates, remote configuration, or advertising. It never updates itself; updates come through Google Play.

The Settings dialog has a link to this policy. It opens in your web browser, which makes its own network connection. The app itself does not.

6. Third-party services

The app uses no analytics, advertising, or tracking services, no crash reporting services, no social-media integrations, and no other SDKs that would process your data. The only third parties involved are standard Android system components: the Android Vibration API, Android Audio, and Android DataStore. These are standard Android parts, not external services, and they do not receive copies of your data.

Google Play, where you download the app, handles your download under its own privacy policy. The app does not send it anything.

7. Backup and data transfer

The app excludes all of its data from Android cloud backup, so Android’s backup system (for example, backup to your Google account) does not upload your game progress.

When you set up a new phone using Android’s standard device-to-device transfer, the app’s data can move with you on Android 12 and newer. On Android 11 and older, the app’s data is not included in that transfer. Device-to-device transfer happens only when you start it, and it goes directly between your two devices.

The app does not currently include an export or import feature.

8. Children

The app can be used by children and adults. Because the app does not collect personal information from anyone, it does not collect personal information from children. It includes no advertising, no accounts, no in-app purchases, and no automatic sharing features.

Parents and guardians can clear the app’s data at any time from Android’s settings, as described in Section 9.

9. Your rights

Because the Developer holds no data about you, there is nothing to access, correct, or delete on the Developer’s side. You control everything stored on your device.

When you uninstall the app, Android removes its data from your device. The uninstall flow on some Android versions may offer to keep the app’s data; if you accept, it stays on your device (and comes back if you reinstall the app) until you delete it. To remove it for good, choose to delete the data when uninstalling, or clear the app’s storage in Android’s settings (Settings → Apps → DinoDash → Storage → Clear storage; the exact wording and menu path vary slightly by Android version).

10. Changes to this policy
