Privacy Policy
Updated: November 11, 2026 · Komorebi Hunt 1.1.0 and later
1. Who we are
Komorebi Hunt is provided by Penguin Engine / Kota Sudo. No game account is required. We do not operate our own analytics or request your precise location. Older paid builds through build 5 do not include advertising or in-app purchases. Advertising and purchases described here apply to the upcoming free 1.1.0 update; test builds use test advertising.
2. On your device
Progress, stars, best scores and times, display and audio settings, language, and player name are stored locally. There is no cloud save. Deleting app data can erase these records. First-launch acceptance stores the policy version, acceptance choices and date on your device. It is separate from advertising consent and tracking permission. Ads do not load before acceptance. Significant policy changes may require renewed acceptance.
3. Online and local play
Optional online play sends a temporary player ID, display name, room code, stage, difficulty, seed, search and helper actions, scores, timing and connection status to our Google Cloud Run server over encrypted WSS. Other players can see your name, status and results. There is no chat, voice chat, photo profile or permanent game account. Do not put personal or contact information in your name. This information runs the match and is not used to create advertising profiles. It is kept in server memory, not a persistent player database. Empty rooms are deleted; results last up to 90 seconds, idle lobbies and queues 180 seconds, and a connection up to 15 minutes. A disconnected player’s result may remain until the room ends. Hosting necessarily processes IP addresses and network traffic, but our game code does not log names, IP addresses or message payloads. Google Cloud’s privacy notice applies to its service processing. Local Wi-Fi play sends names, temporary IDs, match settings and actions directly between devices; it does not use our game server and has no app-level encryption. Local-network permission is optional and can be managed in your device settings.
4. Advertising and your choices
The upcoming free update uses Google AdMob and is intended for children and adults. Before ads begin, a neutral screen asks for an age group: under 13, 13–17, 18 or older, or prefer not to answer. Only the chosen age group is stored on this device; no birth date is collected and the age group is not sent to our game server. The ads SDK receives protective age-treatment signals. Children under 13 and users whose age is unknown receive child-directed, non-personalized advertising with advertising identifiers disabled. Users aged 13–17 also receive protective, non-personalized advertising with advertising identifiers disabled. These users are not asked for advertising consent or iOS tracking permission. For adults, personalized advertising is permitted only within applicable consent requirements and device permissions. Google may process IP address, device and app information, permitted advertising identifiers, ad views and interactions, and diagnostics for delivery, personalization, measurement and fraud prevention. Google UMP handles required regional consent; iOS tracking permission is separate, and denying it prevents IDFA access. Declining consent or tracking does not prevent play: ads may be non-personalized, limited, or unavailable. All ad requests use the general-audience content rating. You can review or change the player age group in Settings → Ads & Purchases, and revisit advertising privacy choices when available. Changing the age group discards previously loaded ads. Android advertising-ID and privacy controls are also available in system settings. Google’s Privacy Policy and partner-site information explain its processing.
5. Purchases and support
Apple StoreKit and Google Play Billing process purchases. Product and transaction identifiers, signed purchase information and ownership status are used to verify and restore purchases on the device, not sent to the game server. We do not receive payment-card details. The stores handle payment, approval and refunds and may provide sales or quality reports. The app has no separate parental-confirmation screen; store family approval settings still apply. Email support processes your email address, message and any voluntarily supplied screenshots or device details to reply and investigate. We retain relevant correspondence only as needed, do not sell it or use it for advertising, and remove information no longer needed.
6. Website, requests and changes
This support site is hosted by OpenAI Sites. The hosting provider may process IP addresses and access information to deliver and protect the website. We have added no advertising trackers or analytics. Contact hunthelp@p-en.art about this policy or requests concerning your support data. No game-account deletion process is necessary because there are no game accounts; local records can be removed by deleting app data. We update this policy when practices change.
