Short Summary: Squatchi: Bigfoot Boulder Smash does not collect, store, track, share, or sell any personal data. The game requires no account creation or sign-in, contains no third-party advertising or analytics SDKs, and stores all arcade game progress locally on your device.

1. Overview

Squatchi: Bigfoot Boulder Smash (com.squatchi.bouldersmash) is a casual Pacific Northwest platformer and boulder-slingshot physics arcade game featuring 10 campaign levels and 5 unlockable Bigfoot character stages. This Privacy Policy explains how the application handles information.

2. Personal Data We Collect

None. The app does not ask for, access, or collect any personal information, including:

Name, email address, phone number, or physical address
Precise or coarse geographic location
Contacts, photos, microphone, camera, or media files
Payment or financial information
Device identifiers, Advertising ID (AD_ID), or usage telemetry

The app does not integrate any third-party analytics, crash-reporting, tracking, or advertising SDKs.

3. Local On-Device Game Progress

All arcade gameplay data — including your high score, 3-star ratings across Levels 1 through 10, audio mute preferences, and selected Bigfoot evolution stage (Stages 1 through 5) — is saved strictly locally on your device using standard Android local storage. This data never leaves your device and is automatically erased if you clear the app’s storage or uninstall the app.

4. Offline Play & Optional Internet Permission

The entire 10-level arcade campaign, all 5 Bigfoot stages, and synthesized forest sound effects are bundled inside the app and work 100% offline. The app requests the standard android.permission.INTERNET permission solely so players can optionally view the public community portal at https://squatchi-base.surge.sh or share their high score when online. No personal identifiers are transmitted by the app.

Because we do not collect any personal data, we never share, rent, or sell user data to any third party.
