Privacy Policy

Version 1.0, in effect from 23 September 2026. Türkçe: Gizlilik Politikası ve KVKK Aydınlatma Metni

Who we are

Tribe Rush is made and published by Çağlayan Özgün Kasap, a developer in Türkiye (“we”, “us”). We are responsible, as data controller, for the personal data described in this policy, except where we say that Google decides. You can reach us at support@stratanaut.com.

What stays on your iPhone

Your progress. The ages you have cleared, your scores, food, camp training, ascension, lives and how many runs you have played are saved on your iPhone with Apple’s standard app storage.

A log of your runs. The game also keeps a small log of game events on your iPhone, such as when a run started, which door you took, when a boss appeared and how many men you had, each with the time. The log never grows past about 2 MB.

Neither of these is ever sent to us, and the game has no way to send them anywhere. We cannot see, restore or delete them for you. They are included in your iPhone’s backups if you back up to iCloud or a computer, under your own Apple account. Deleting the app deletes them from your iPhone.

Ads

The only ad in Tribe Rush is one you ask for. When you are out of lives, you can choose to watch a short ad to get one more. There are no banner ads and no ads between runs.

The ads come from Google AdMob. To make them work, Google’s ad software (the Google Mobile Ads SDK) is built into the game. It can connect to Google whenever the game is open and online, not only while an ad is playing.

According to Google’s data disclosure for this software (last updated by Google on 21 September 2026), it may collect:

• your IP address, which may be used to estimate the general location of your device;
• crash logs and diagnostic data about its own operation;
• performance data, such as app launch time, hang rate and energy use;
• device identifiers: your advertising identifier (only if you allow tracking) and other identifiers that are limited to this app or to apps from the same developer;
• advertising data, such as the ads you have seen;
• interactions, such as app launches, taps and video views.

Google uses this data to show ads, measure them, prevent fraud and improve its services. For AdMob, Google decides how the data is used, as an independent controller, under its own privacy policy. You can read how Google uses information from apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.

We do not receive this data. AdMob gives us reports with totals, such as how many ads were shown and what they earned, not who watched them.

Your choices

Apple’s tracking prompt

Before your advertising identifier can be used, iOS asks whether Tribe Rush may track you across other companies’ apps and websites. If you choose Ask App Not to Track, the game cannot read your advertising identifier and, under Apple’s rules, may not track you in other ways. You can change your answer at any time in Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking.

Google’s consent message

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, Google’s consent message asks for your choices before ads can use your personal data. If you decline, Google may still show ads that are not personalised. You can change your choices at any time from the privacy options in the game.

You never have to watch an ad

Lives come back on their own, one every 20 minutes. Your choices on tracking and consent change nothing in the game.

If you email us

When you write to us, we receive your email address, your message and anything you attach. We use them only to answer you and to fix what you report. Cloudflare forwards mail sent to support@stratanaut.com to our mailbox at Google’s Gmail and keeps no mailbox itself. We use Gmail under Google’s standard terms, so Google handles those messages under its own privacy policy. We keep messages while we deal with them and then for no more than two years, unless the law requires us to keep them longer.

Beta testing

If you test Tribe Rush with Apple’s TestFlight, Apple passes on the feedback you choose to send us: your comments, screenshots and crash details. If you joined through our public TestFlight link, you appear as anonymous unless you type your email address into your feedback. We use feedback only to improve the game and keep it on the same terms as email.

Apple

You download Tribe Rush from Apple, under Apple’s privacy policy. If you turn on Share With App Developers in Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements, Apple also shares crash reports and usage statistics with us, without your identity. The game may also invite you to rate it with Apple’s standard rating prompt; ratings and reviews go to Apple and appear on the App Store under Apple’s rules.

This website

triberush.stratanaut.com sets no cookies, runs no analytics and loads nothing from other companies. It is hosted by Vercel, which processes the technical details every visit sends, such as your IP address and browser type, to deliver the pages and keep the service secure.

What we do not do

• No account or sign-in.
• No in-app purchases.
• No access to your location, contacts, photos, camera or microphone.
• No analytics or crash-reporting software in the game. Google’s ad software is the only software from another company in it.
• We do not sell or rent your personal data.

Legal bases

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we rely on these legal bases under Article 6(1) of the GDPR:

Personalised ads and use of your advertising identifier

Your consent, point (a), given or refused in Google’s consent message and Apple’s tracking prompt.

Showing and measuring the ad you asked for, and preventing ad fraud

Our legitimate interest in funding a free game, point (f).

Answering your email

Providing the game and the support you ask for, point (b), and our legitimate interest in fixing problems, point (f).

TestFlight feedback and this website

Our legitimate interest in testing the game and in delivering and securing the site, point (f).

Privacy requests and legal claims

Our legal obligations, point (c).

Where data is processed

We work from Türkiye. Google, Cloudflare and Vercel are based in the United States and may process data in the United States and other countries. For data from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, Google describes the safeguards it relies on, including the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses, on its ads data transfers page.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you can ask us for a copy of your personal data, and ask us to correct or delete it, to restrict or stop using it, or to give it to you in a portable format. Where we rely on your consent, you can withdraw it at any time, in Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking or in the game’s privacy options. You can also complain to your data protection authority.

In practice we hold very little about you, usually only your emails. We cannot see your progress, and the data Google collects through ads is held by Google, which answers requests about it under the Google Privacy Policy.

To make a request, email support@stratanaut.com. We reply within one month at the latest. If you live in Türkiye, your rights under Law No. 6698 (KVKK) and how to apply are set out in our KVKK Aydınlatma Metni, in Turkish.

Children

Tribe Rush is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them. If you think a child under 13 has sent us personal data, tell us and we will delete it.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a new version number and date. If a change affects what data the game handles, we will also say so in the App Store release notes.
