Flick Around & Find Out ("the Game") is a free-to-play mobile game developed by SpaceRoachVR ("we," "us," or "our"). We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about what data is collected, why, and how you can control it.
This Privacy Policy applies to the Game on Android and any related services or communications from SpaceRoachVR. By downloading or playing the Game, you agree to this policy.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide Directly
We do not require an account to play the Game. We only receive personal information from you if you contact us for support (e.g., via email). In that case, we collect only what you choose to send us (typically an email address and description of your issue).
1.2 Automatically Collected Information
When you play, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect:
- Device Information: Device model, Android OS version, screen resolution, language/locale settings, unique device identifiers (e.g., Android Advertising ID)
- Game Progress & Settings: Levels completed, stars earned, scores, unlocked content, sound/music/vibration preferences, stored locally on your device. If you sign in to Google Play Games, leaderboard scores may be submitted to Google Play Games Services.
- Usage & Analytics Data: Session length, gameplay events, level attempts, ad interactions, feature usage
- Crash & Diagnostics: Error logs and technical data to help us identify and fix bugs
1.3 Advertising Data (Google AdMob)
We display banner, interstitial, and rewarded video ads through Google AdMob. AdMob may independently collect:
- Android Advertising ID (a resettable, anonymous identifier)
- IP address (used to infer approximate country/region)
- Device identifiers and ad interaction data (views, clicks)
You can reset or limit your Advertising ID at any time in Android Settings → Privacy → Ads.
1.4 In-App Purchases
The Game offers an optional "Remove Ads" in-app purchase processed entirely through Google Play Billing. We never see or store your payment details. We receive only a transaction confirmation (order ID, timestamp, item ID) to verify and activate your purchase. Your purchase history is governed by Google Play's terms.
1.5 Google Play Games Leaderboards
If you choose to sign in with Google Play Games, the Game may use your Google Play Games display name and submit leaderboard scores to Google Play Games Services. We do not create custom player names, collect your email address, or store leaderboard profiles on SpaceRoachVR servers.
2. How We Use Your Information

4. Data Storage & Security
4.1 Local Storage
Your game progress, stars, scores, and settings are stored in the app's private storage on your device. This local save data is not sent to SpaceRoachVR servers. If you sign in to Google Play Games, eligible leaderboard scores are submitted to Google Play Games Services so public and friends leaderboards can work.
4.2 Security
We take reasonable technical measures to protect any data we do handle. However, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Use the Game at your own risk.
4.3 Retention

- Google Play Games leaderboard data: Retained by Google Play Games Services according to Google's policies
- Ad & analytics data: Retained by Google per their policies (typically 12-26 months)
- Support emails: Retained only as long as needed to resolve your issue, then deleted
- Purchase records: Retained by Google Play per their terms
5. Children's Privacy (COPPA)
- No account creation is required; children can play without providing any personal information
- Ads comply with COPPA guidelines via Google AdMob's child-directed treatment settings
- If we discover we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will delete it immediately
Parents & Guardians: If you believe your child has provided us with personal information, contact us at privacy@spaceroachvr.com and we will delete it promptly.
