First Trace — Privacy Policy

Effective date: 4 October 2026 · Русская версия

First Trace is a puzzle game intended for players aged 13 and older. This policy covers its Android, iOS and Yandex Games versions. The advertising and storage features available to you depend on the version you use.

Game data and age selection

The Android and iOS game stores progress, scores, earned crystals, items unlocked with those crystals, settings and the selected age group on your device. It has no game account and does not sell items for money. The birth year entered on the age screen is used to select an age group; the game saves only the group, not the birth year. It does not send the birth year to our server. You can remove local game data by deleting the app. On Yandex Games, the platform may store a copy of progress and settings to synchronize your game.

Advertising and partners

The Android and iOS versions include Yandex Mobile Ads and advertising mediation. Ads can appear as an optional rewarded video, an interstitial between levels, or a banner in the workshop. The game requests no ads when the selected age group is under 13 or unknown. Some bundled advertising components may start before the age choice and may process technical information at that time. The game currently passes a negative personalization-consent signal to Yandex Mobile Ads and does not request device location permission.

The mobile advertising package includes Yandex and adapters or SDKs associated with AppLovin, BidMachine, Bigo, Chartboost, Digital Turbine, Google, InMobi, ironSource, Meta Audience Network, Mintegral, Moloco, myTarget, Pangle, StartApp, Unity Ads, Vungle and zMaticoo. The partners used for an individual ad can vary by device, region and available inventory. On Yandex Games, the Yandex Games platform may provide advertising under its own privacy policy.

Data used for advertising

Advertising partners may process your IP address, device and app identifiers (including an advertising ID where available), approximate location inferred from network information, ad views and interactions, app usage information and diagnostics. They may use this information to deliver ads, limit repeat ads, measure performance, prevent fraud and maintain their services. Depending on partner settings and device privacy controls, some partners may also use identifiers to measure activity across apps or websites. The game does not itself ask for precise location. The actual processing, retention and rights handling of partner data are also governed by those partners’ policies.

Your choices and requests

You can limit or reset an advertising identifier in your device’s privacy settings and decline an optional rewarded ad. If your age group is under 13, the game remains playable without requested ads. For questions about access, correction, deletion or other privacy rights, email shmyrevaleksei@gmail.com. If an advertising partner controls the relevant data, we can help identify the partner so you can make a request directly. Parents may use the same address for concerns about a child.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when the game, its advertising partners or the available versions change. The effective date above identifies the current text. Contact: shmyrevaleksei@gmail.com.
