Privacy Policy

Connect Train Tracks · Last updated: September 7, 2026

Idle Hands Studio ("we," "our," or "us") operates the mobile game Connect Train Tracks (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information the App collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. By downloading or using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

Connect Train Tracks is a premium, one-time-purchase game with no ads and no in-app purchases. We collect only what's needed to operate the App and understand basic usage. Specifically:

• Analytics & Diagnostic Data — via Firebase (a service provided by Google), we collect standard usage and diagnostic information such as device type, operating system version, app version, session length, feature interactions, and crash reports. This data is used in aggregate and is not used to identify you personally.
• Daily Challenge Identifier — to track your progress on the Daily Challenge feature, the App assigns a randomly generated identifier tied to your device. This identifier is not connected to your name, email address, or any other personal information, and is used solely to save and display your Daily Challenge progress.

We do not collect your name, email address, contacts, photos, precise location, or payment information through the App. We do not use any advertising SDKs, and the App does not connect to Game Center or any other sign-in service.

2. How We Use Information

• To operate and maintain core App functionality, including the Daily Challenge
• To understand how the App is used, so we can fix bugs and improve gameplay
• To diagnose technical issues and crashes

We do not sell your information, and we do not use your information for targeted advertising.

3. Third-Party Services

The App uses Firebase, a service provided by Google LLC, for analytics and diagnostics. Firebase may collect and process data according to its own privacy practices. You can learn more here:

• Firebase Privacy and Security

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell or rent your information to third parties. We share limited data only with service providers (such as Firebase/Google) as necessary to operate the App, and only to the extent required to provide analytics and crash-reporting functionality.

5. Children's Privacy

Connect Train Tracks is rated 4+ and suitable for a general audience, including children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. The identifiers described above are device-based and not linked to a child's identity, name, or contact information. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the details below so we can address it.

6. Data Retention

Analytics and diagnostic data is retained by Firebase/Google according to their standard retention practices. The Daily Challenge identifier is retained on your device and associated records for as long as you use the App.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of information associated with your device identifier. To make such a request, contact us using the information below.

8. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we process. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
