Yut Daily Challenge Privacy Policy

Kim Seunghoon (the "developer") handles the personal information of people who use Yut Daily Challenge (the "app") in accordance with the Personal Information Protection Act of Korea and other applicable laws. This policy explains what information the app stores, where it is stored, to whom it is sent, and how you can make choices and exercise your rights. This is a translation of the Korean policy. The app itself is available in Korean only. If the two versions differ, the Korean version applies, except where the law of your country requires otherwise.

1.2 Information sent to Google

The current version does not connect to Play Games. The Play Games row in the table below and the notes about it apply from the update that connects Play Games. The current version does not send a player ID, profile, scores, or achievements through Play Games, and does not start the Play Games SDK. Achievements and Today's Yut records are stored only on your device.

1.4 Information the developer does not collect

1.5 App quality information from Google Play (Android vitals)

On some devices whose users have turned on "automatically share usage and diagnostics," Google Play collects quality information such as app crashes and freezes and provides it to the developer through Google Play Console (Android vitals). Google collects this at the device level, not the app, and whether it is collected depends on your device settings. The developer uses this information only to fix errors and improve quality.

1.6 Closed test builds

Closed test builds have a [Copy test statistics] item on the [About] screen. Tapping it only copies app usage statistics such as number of games, win rate, and screen size to the device clipboard; nothing is sent automatically. The statistics contain no account, names (including Play Together names), advertising ID, or device identifiers. The developer receives them only if a tester pastes and sends them, and uses them only to analyze test results. Public release builds do not have this feature.

2. Ads and your choices

The app shows ads so that it can be offered for free. The app does not start the ad SDK until it has checked with Google UMP whether consent is needed in your region. The in-app ad choice item is at [Settings] > [Privacy & account] > [Ad privacy choices] (in the Korean app: [설정] > [개인정보·계정] > [광고 개인정보 선택]). As described below, it is shown or hidden depending on your region.

2.1 Users in Korea

2.2 Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland

2.3 Residents of certain US states

Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and Virginia can opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information at [Settings] > [Privacy & account] > [Ad privacy choices].

If you opt out, your choice is passed to Google, data processing is restricted, and personalized ads are not shown. You can change this choice at any time in the same menu. The developer does not sell personal information for money.

2.4 Users in other regions

The in-app ad choice item is not shown. You can manage ads in these ways:

2.5 Automatic collection

The app itself uses no cookies or tracking tools. The ad SDK collects the information in 1.2, and you can refuse personalized ads by the methods in 2.1 to 2.4. If you do not want the information needed to show ads to be sent at all, please stop using and delete the app.

3. Retention and deletion

4. Sharing with third parties and international transfer

The developer does not sell your personal information. Because the app uses Google services, information is transferred abroad as shown below when you use the related feature. We do not provide it to anyone else, except in response to lawful requests such as from investigative authorities. The developer does not outsource the processing of personal information.

5. Security measures

As an individual developer, the developer takes these measures:

6. Your rights and how to exercise them

You (or a legal guardian for a child under 14) may request access to, correction, deletion, or suspension of processing of your personal information, and may withdraw consent. The only personal information the developer keeps directly is inquiry email, so you can exercise most rights yourself as follows:

7. Children's personal information

The app is intended for users aged 13 and older and is not directed at children under 13. The developer does not knowingly collect children's personal information. In Korea, if consent is needed to process the personal information of a child under 14, a legal guardian's consent must be obtained. The app has no such process, so it does not ask users under 14 to consent to personalized ads (2.1). If you believe a child's personal information is being processed, please let us know at the email address in Section 9.

8. Users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the UK (GDPR)

9. Privacy officer and contact

Please send privacy questions, complaints, and requests for remedies to the email address above.

10. Remedies (Korea)

If you need to report or get advice about a privacy infringement, you can contact these Korean agencies:

11. Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the changes and the effective date on this page at least 7 days before they take effect. For important changes, such as collecting more items or sharing more widely, we will give notice at least 30 days in advance and ask for consent again where the law requires.
