Privacy Policy — Takhte Khan

Last updated: 8 November 2026

In short: this game has no user account, asks for no email address or phone number, and has no form to fill in. Every part of it is unlocked from the moment you install it. What the game saves stays on your own phone, except for the three specific things listed below.

What we do not collect

  • Your name, surname or any identifying information
  • Email address or phone number
  • Location
  • Contacts, photos, files or microphone
  • Google Advertising ID
  • Hardware device identifiers

The app reads none of these and requests no permission for any of them.

What stays on your phone

These never leave your device:

  • The display name you choose for yourself in the game
  • Coins, unlocked items and the selected theme
  • Your rank score and daily progress
  • Win/loss statistics and any unfinished game
  • Sound, vibration and animation settings

Uninstalling the app deletes all of it.

What reaches our server

Three things only, and none of them identifies you:

WhatWhyWhat it contains
Ad counter So we know which banner was seen and tapped The campaign id and the event type only. No user identifier of any kind.
Notification registration Only if you allow notifications The notification token, a random guest id, the operating system type, the build number and the device language.
Online match Only if you start one yourself Your chosen display name, your avatar and the moves of that single match.

What the guest id is: a random string the app generates on first launch. It is not linked to any account, email address or device identifier. It disappears when you uninstall the app.

Notifications

Notifications are entirely optional. If you decline, the game works in full and no token is created or sent. You can turn them off at any time, and when you do the token is deleted from our server.

Advertising

The game shows banners and occasionally a pop-up. These ads come from our own server and there is no third-party ad network in the app. That means ads are not personalised based on your behaviour, no profile of you is built, and no advertising identifier is read.

Tapping an ad opens your phone's browser. From that moment the privacy policy of the destination site applies, not this one.

Children

The game is suitable for all ages and is not specifically directed at children. Because we collect no identifying information at all, no personal data is collected from children either.

Retention and deletion

  • Ad counter: an aggregate number, not connected to any person.
  • Notification token: deleted when you turn notifications off or uninstall the app.
  • Online match data: not retained after the match ends.

To request deletion of any data, write from the contact page or email [email protected]. We action requests within 30 days at the latest.

Changes to this policy

If the app's behaviour changes, this page is updated before the new version is published and the date at the top changes with it.
