# Privacy Policy for ResourceWorld

**Last updated:** August 16, 2026

GTCGames ("we," "us," or "our") operates the mobile game ResourceWorld (the "Game"). This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the Game and how it is used.

## 1. Summary

GTCGames does not collect, store, or process any personal data from players directly. The only data collected is the data necessary to display advertisements within the Game, which is collected and processed by our third-party advertising partner(s), not by GTCGames itself.

## 2. Information Collected

We do not operate any servers or backend systems that collect player data. We do not require account creation, and we do not collect names, email addresses, location data, or any other personally identifiable information.

The only data collection that occurs is performed by our advertising partner, **Google AdMob**, in order to serve ads within the Game. This may include:

- Advertising identifiers (e.g., Google Advertising ID)
- Device information (device type, operating system version)
- IP address (used for approximate location and fraud prevention)
- Ad interaction data (impressions, clicks)

This data is collected, processed, and controlled by Google, not by GTCGames. We do not have access to, and do not receive, any individually identifiable data from these ads.

## 3. Third-Party Services

The Game uses the following third-party service to display ads:

- **Google AdMob** — [Google's Privacy Policy](https://policies.google.com/privacy) | [How Google uses data](https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites)

AdMob may use the data described in Section 2 to serve personalized or non-personalized ads, depending on your region and consent choices (see Section 5).

## 4. Children's Privacy

The Game is not directed at children under 13. If the Game or its ad placements are configured for a general audience, ads are served in accordance with Google's policies for child-directed treatment where applicable. We do not knowingly collect any data from children, as we do not collect any player data ourselves.

## 5. Your Choices and Consent

- **Ad personalization:** Depending on your device and region, you may see a consent prompt allowing you to opt in or out of personalized ads. You can also manage ad personalization settings directly through your device (e.g., Google Settings > Ads on Android).
- **Advertising ID reset/opt-out:** You can reset or limit ad tracking through your device's settings.
- **GDPR (EEA/UK users):** Google AdMob operates a consent mechanism (Google's EU User Consent Policy / IAB TCF) to obtain your consent before collecting or using data for ads where required by law.
- **CCPA (California users):** You may have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of data used for advertising purposes via your device's ad settings.

## 6. Data Retention

Since GTCGames does not collect or store any player data, we retain nothing. Any data used for ad delivery is retained according to Google AdMob's own retention policies.

## 7. Data Security

As no player data passes through or is stored on GTCGames systems, there is no GTCGames-controlled data to secure. Data collected by Google AdMob is protected under Google's own security practices.

## 8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
