Privacy Policy
Last updated 5 September 2026 First effective 25 December 2023
This policy explains what information Highbrow Interactive Private Limited (“Highbrow Interactive”, “we”, “our” or “us”) collects when you play our games or visit this website, what we do with it, who we share it with, and what you can ask us to do about it.
It applies to every game we publish, on Google Play and the App Store, and to highbrowinteractive.com. If you do not agree with it, you should not use our games or this site.
1. Who we are
Highbrow Interactive Private Limited is a simulation game studio based in Chennai, India. We decide what information our games collect and what happens to it, and we follow the data protection laws that apply in the places we operate.

2. Information we collect
The games collect the information they need in order to run, to be improved and to be paid for. It falls into five categories.
- Game activity. What you do in the game: progress, levels and routes completed, sessions, in-game purchases and the actions you take while playing.
- Identifiers. A user ID that identifies your installation or, if you sign in, your game account. This is not your name.
- Device and advertising identifiers. Your device model, operating system version, language and region, and your device’s resettable advertising identifier.
- Approximate location. Derived from your IP address, at country or region level.
- Crash and performance data. Diagnostic reports when the game crashes or misbehaves, including the device state at the time.
We do not ask you for a password. Where a game offers sign-in, it is handled by Google or Apple and we never receive your credentials.
If you write to us for help, we keep your message and anything you attach to it, so that we can answer you.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive information such as health, religion, political opinion or biometrics. Please do not send us any when you contact us.
3. How we use your information
We use your information for the following.
| What we do | Information used |
|---|---|
| Run the game, save your progress and restore it on a new device | Game activity, identifiers |
| Show the game in your language and region | Device information, approximate location |
| Fix crashes and improve stability | Crash and performance data, device information |
| Understand how the games are played so we can improve them | Game activity, identifiers, device information |
| Process in-app purchases and handle refunds | Purchase records, identifiers |
| Show advertising, including personalised advertising where you have allowed it | Advertising identifier, approximate location, game activity |
| Post scores and achievements to leaderboards, where a game has them | Game account identifier, game activity |
| Answer your questions and support requests | Anything you send us |
| Detect cheating, fraud and abuse | Game activity, identifiers, device information |
| Meet our legal obligations and resolve disputes | As required |
4. Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information for money. We do share it with the following kinds of recipient, and only for the purposes above.
- App stores. Google and Apple, who distribute the games and process purchases.
- Analytics and infrastructure providers, who host our services and help us understand how the games are played.
- Advertising and attribution partners, who serve advertising in the games and tell us which campaigns brought players in.
- Professional advisers, auditors and regulators, where we are required to disclose information or need advice.
- An acquirer, if all or part of our business is sold or reorganised. Your information would remain subject to this policy until the acquirer gave you notice of any change.
We are based in India, and most of these providers process information in the United States and Europe, so your information is transferred outside the country you are in. We rely on the protections those providers put in place for such transfers, and you can ask us about them.
Sharing your advertising identifier and game activity with advertising partners so that they can show you relevant advertising counts as sharing your information, even though no money changes hands. You can tell us to stop — see Advertising and your choices.
5. Third-party services in our games
Our games include services operated by other companies. Each processes some information in its own right, under its own privacy policy, and we encourage you to read them.
| Service | Operated by | What it does for us |
|---|---|---|
| Google Play services and Play Games Services | Distribution, optional sign-in, leaderboards and achievements | |
| Google Play Billing | In-app purchases on Android | |
| Game Center and App Store in-app purchase | Apple | Distribution, optional sign-in and purchases on iOS |
| Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics | Gameplay analytics and crash reporting | |
| Google BigQuery | Storage and analysis of game event data | |
| Google AdMob | Advertising | |
| Unity Ads and Unity LevelPlay | Unity Technologies | Advertising and ad mediation |
| Meta Audience Network | Meta | Advertising |
| GameAnalytics | GameAnalytics | Gameplay analytics |
| Tenjin | Tenjin | Install attribution and marketing measurement |
Not every service appears in every game, and the list changes as the games change.
6. How long we keep it
We keep information only as long as it is needed for the purpose we collected it for.
- Game progress and account data is kept while you use the game.
- Game event and analytics data is kept for trend analysis.
- Crash reports are kept for as long as they are useful in diagnosing the release they relate to.
- Purchase records are kept for as long as tax and accounting law requires.
- Correspondence is kept for as long as needed to resolve your issue and handle any follow-up.
If you ask us to delete your data, we act on it as described in Deleting your data rather than waiting for these periods to run out.
7. Your rights
You can ask us to:
- Tell you what we hold about you, and give you a copy of it.
- Correct information that is wrong or incomplete.
- Delete your information — see Deleting your data.
- Stop using your information for a particular purpose, or restrict what we do with it.
- Send you your information in a portable form.
- Stop sharing your information for advertising.
Write to hello@highbrowinteractive.com and we will deal with your request within the time the law allows. We may need to ask you for the user ID shown in the game’s settings, because it is usually the only way we can identify your data.
Some things you can do without us: disconnect a linked Google or Apple account in your device settings, reset or limit your advertising identifier on your device, and control cookies in your browser.
8. Deleting your data
You can ask us to delete the personal information we hold about you, whether or not you have ever signed in.
Write to hello@highbrowinteractive.com with the subject line “Delete my data”, and tell us which game you play and the user ID shown in that game’s settings screen. We will delete the personal information we hold about you and confirm when it is done.
Some information survives a deletion request, and we would rather say so than surprise you. We keep purchase records where tax and accounting law requires it, and we keep aggregated or de-identified data that can no longer be linked back to you. Deleting your data does not reverse purchases or refund them; that is handled by Google or Apple.
Uninstalling a game does not by itself delete data we already hold, so if that is what you want, please write to us.
9. Advertising and your choices
Our games are free to play and are funded by advertising and optional in-app purchases. Advertising is served by the partners listed in section 5.
Advertising can be personalised, which means it is chosen using your advertising identifier and information about the apps you use, or non-personalised, which means it is not. You can turn personalisation off and still play the game; you will simply see less relevant advertising.
- On Android, open Settings, then Google, then Ads, and delete or reset your advertising ID or opt out of ad personalisation.
- On iOS, open Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Tracking, and turn off tracking for the game. When a game first asks for permission to track, declining it has the same effect.
- To stop sharing for advertising altogether, write to hello@highbrowinteractive.com.
10. Children’s privacy
Our games are general audience games and are not directed at children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from a child below the age at which they can consent for themselves in their own country. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has given us personal information, write to hello@highbrowinteractive.com and we will delete it promptly.
11. Cookies on this website
This website uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read. It sets cookies on your device to do that. Our games do not use cookies; they use the identifiers described in section 2.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site works without them.
12. How we keep it safe
We use technical and organisational measures appropriate to the information we hold, including encrypting it in transit and limiting who inside the company can reach it. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
13. Links to other services
Our games and this website link to services we do not operate, including the app stores, our social media pages and advertisers’ destinations. We are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices. Read their policies before giving them information.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes to our games, to our data practices, or to applicable law. When we do, we will revise the Last updated date at the top of this page.
Where a change materially affects how we handle your personal information, we will give more prominent notice, such as a message in the game. We encourage you to review this page from time to time. Continuing to use our games or services after a revised policy takes effect means you accept it.
15. How to contact us
For anything about this policy or your personal information, including any request to exercise a right, write to us. If you are not satisfied with how we have handled a request, say so and we will look at it again.
