Void Remnant

This policy describes what data Void Remnant collects, how that data is used, and your rights as a player. If anything here is unclear or you'd like to exercise a right described below, email us at armedcrab@gmail.com.

Who we are

Void Remnant is made by Armed Crab, a solo game studio based in the United States. Our website is armedcrab.com. For privacy questions about this game or any other Armed Crab title, contact us at armedcrab@gmail.com.

What Void Remnant collects

Void Remnant stores the following on your device only:

• Your run stats (runs played, upgrades purchased, bosses defeated).
• Your unlock state (which ships, weapons, or ship upgrades you've earned).
• Game settings (audio, accessibility, control preferences).
• A small amount of UI state (which tutorial prompts you've dismissed).

This data is stored by the app using standard device storage (localStorage and IndexedDB inside the game's WebView). None of it is transmitted to Armed Crab or to any Armed Crab server. Armed Crab does not operate a backend, an account system, or any player database. We have no way to identify an individual player.

Clearing the app's storage (through your device's settings, or by uninstalling the app) removes all of this data. There is no cloud backup — if you uninstall, your progress is gone.

Void Remnant does not collect:

• Your name, email address, phone number, or contact list
• Your precise location
• Your photos, camera feed, microphone, or any media
• Any payment information (the game has no in-app purchases)
• Any account credentials (there are no accounts)

Third-party services — Google AdMob

Void Remnant uses Google AdMob to serve rewarded-video ads at a small number of opt-in moments — for example, you can watch an ad to continue after a loss or to double the ore from a run. Rewarded ads are the only kind of ads the game shows; there are no interstitial ads, no banner ads, no forced ad views.

When AdMob serves an ad, it collects information on Armed Crab's behalf, including:

• Your device's advertising identifier (Android Advertising ID on Android, IDFA on iOS)
• Approximate location, derived from your IP address
• Your IP address
• Device type, OS version, and language
• Ad interaction data (ad impressions, clicks, completion, whether the reward was granted)
• AdMob SDK diagnostic information (ad load latency, fill rate, request success/error codes, network timing) — used by Google to monitor SDK health and improve ad delivery. This is AdMob SDK-level diagnostics; Void Remnant does not collect or transmit app crash logs.
• App usage patterns used by AdMob to make ads more relevant (only where you've consented to personalized ads)

AdMob's collection and use of this data is governed by Google's privacy policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy, and by Google's advertising-specific practices at policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Consent for personalized ads (EU / EEA / UK / California). If you're in a region where consent is legally required, Void Remnant shows a consent prompt (via Google's User Messaging Platform) the first time you launch the app. You can choose to see personalized ads or non-personalized ads. Non-personalized ads still collect limited data (for fraud prevention and delivery), but they don't use your behavior to target ads. You can re-open the consent form at any time — tap PRIVACY OPTIONS from the pause menu. (This option is visible only in regions where consent is legally required, i.e. EU / EEA / UK.)

If you're in a region where consent isn't legally required, ads are shown with Google's default personalization. Your device's system-level ad-tracking controls also apply. On Android, look under your device's Settings for "Ads" or "Google Ads" — the exact path varies by Android version (Settings → Google → Ads, or Settings → Privacy → Ads on newer versions). On iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.

Data retention

Armed Crab does not retain any of the data AdMob collects. We do not operate a backend or database. Retention of AdMob-collected data is governed by Google's own policies — see Google's advertising privacy page linked above for Google's retention, access, and deletion controls.

Cookies and local storage

Void Remnant is built on web technology (HTML5) and runs inside a native app container. It uses localStorage and IndexedDB inside the app to persist save data on your device. It does not use cookies in the browser sense, and it does not participate in any cross-site tracking.

Data sharing

Armed Crab does not sell, rent, or share player data. We have no player database to share from. AdMob's own data practices — including whether AdMob shares data with other Google services or advertising partners — are governed by Google's privacy policy linked above.

Children's privacy

Void Remnant is a general-audience game and is not directed at children under 13. Armed Crab does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your under-13 child has been using Void Remnant and that personal information was collected, email us at armedcrab@gmail.com and we will delete any information we may have. (As noted above, we don't operate a player database — in practice, there is nothing device-side to delete on our end beyond what clearing app data already does locally. The AdMob SDK has its own deletion mechanism linked from its privacy policy.)

Your rights

If you're in the EU, EEA, or UK (GDPR)

You have the right to:

• Access information about what's collected
• Correct inaccurate information
• Delete your data ("right to erasure")
• Object to processing
• Port your data to another service
• Withdraw consent for personalized ads at any time (see "Consent for personalized ads" above)

Because most of what Void Remnant stores lives on your device, you can exercise access, correction, and deletion rights directly: check your device's app storage settings, clear app data, or uninstall. For data held by AdMob on our behalf, follow AdMob's deletion process linked from Google's privacy policy.

If you're in California (CCPA / CPRA)

You have the right to:

• Know what categories of personal information are collected (listed above)
• Delete personal information (see local-device note above)
• Opt out of the sale of personal information — we don't sell your data
• Not be discriminated against for exercising a privacy right

How to exercise a right

Because Armed Crab does not retain any user data off-device, there is no server-side deletion endpoint for us to provide. For data held on your device: clear the app's storage or uninstall the game. For data held by Google via AdMob: follow Google's deletion controls linked from its privacy policy. Email us at armedcrab@gmail.com if you have questions about either path; we'll respond within 30 days.

Security

The save data Void Remnant stores lives on your device, protected by your device's operating system. Third-party data — what AdMob collects — is handled by Google under its own security practices. No system is perfectly secure, but we commit to taking reasonable, practical measures appropriate to a small studio with no player database.

Changes to this policy

If we update this policy, we'll change the effective date at the top and note the change in the game's next release notes on the Play Store. Material changes (for example, adding a new third-party SDK) will be surfaced in-game where practical. Continued use of Void Remnant after changes means you accept the updated policy.

Effective date of this version: April 19, 2026.
