Data We Collect

In-App Purchases (Android)

The Expert mode unlock (€2) is processed entirely by Google Play Billing. Æther Engine does not handle, store, or transmit any payment information. All payment data is managed by Google according to their own Privacy Policy.

⚙ ─────────────────── ⚙

Third-Party Services

Æther Engine uses no third-party SDKs, analytics libraries, or advertising networks.

The Android version is packaged with Capacitor (an open-source bridge). Capacitor itself collects no data.

Children's Privacy

Æther Engine does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. The game contains no user accounts, no chat, and no external communication.

⚙ ─────────────────── ⚙

All local data can be deleted at any time by clearing the app's storage in your device settings, or by uninstalling the app.
