Privacy policy

Game version 1.0 · Updated 19 September 2026 · Italiano

Gabriele Giordano, Italy, is the controller for the processing described as the developer’s own activities. Contact: dontpushthebutton.support@gmail.com. This policy covers Don’t Push the Button for iPhone and this support website.

Progress and preferences

No game account is required. Saves, settings and an internal recovery copy stay on your device; the game does not send them to a developer-operated server. You can export or import a save and choose where to keep it. Device backups depend on your Apple settings.

This storage runs the game and remembers your choices. Local data remains until removed; manage exported copies and device backups separately.

Ads and consent

The app uses Google AdMob and User Messaging Platform. It requests non-personalised ads. These can still involve processing IP addresses and approximate location, app or device identifiers, ad interactions and diagnostic information. Google uses this data to deliver, measure, secure and operate advertising services.

Ad requests start when the consent system permits them. Where required, you are shown consent choices. Use Privacy choices in Settings to review them when available. Processing that requires consent relies on that consent; withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing.

Read Google’s policy and its partner-app explanation for Google’s retention and additional purposes. Buying automatic-ad removal leaves optional rewarded videos available.

Purchases and connectivity

Apple handles payments. The game checks StoreKit transactions on your device to activate or restore ad removal. The game does not transmit your payment-card details to the developer. Purchase processing is needed to provide what you bought; Apple processes its service data under its policy.

The game checks Internet connectivity with an HTTPS request to a Google endpoint. This sends no save file or identifier added by the game; Google receives normal connection information, including an IP address.

Website and support email

This website uses GitHub Pages. I add no advertising, profiling cookies or analytics tools to it. GitHub processes technical visit information, including IP addresses, to host and secure the site under its policy.

If you email support, I receive your email address, message and attachments through Gmail to answer your request and resolve the problem, not to send newsletters. Send only necessary information; I need a contact address to reply.

Support related to the game or a purchase relies on providing the service you requested. Security and abuse handling rely on the legitimate interest in protecting the service. Correspondence is kept as needed to resolve the request, handle related disputes and meet applicable obligations.

Providers and international transfers

Apple, Google and GitHub may process information outside the European Economic Area. Their linked policies explain locations, retention and applicable safeguards. Google also describes its transfer mechanisms. The game includes no developer-operated system that combines your progress with advertising profiles.

Your rights

Where applicable, you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability, or object to processing. Contact dontpushthebutton.support@gmail.com. For processing controlled by a provider, you can also use its privacy channels. You can complain to the Italian data protection authority or your competent local authority.

Changes to this policy will appear here with an updated date.
