Privacy Policy

Information stored on your device

The game stores your chosen explorer name, character appearance, mission progress, experience points, ship and travel state, items and collections, chest and reward records, and game settings in application storage on your device.

This information lets you continue where you left off, preserves your choices and prevents the same reward from being awarded twice. You do not need to use your real name as your explorer name.

Local backup saves protect your adventure on this device. Mission progress, earned Nova and earned items are not synchronized between devices. The separate online Play wallet described below stores purchased Nova and cosmetics bought with it. Android or your device provider’s backup services follow their own settings and policies.

Sharing game information and advertising

The full adventure can be played offline without a Google Play Games profile or a purchase. An existing profile may connect automatically when the game opens. The game does not automatically prompt you to create a new profile; Connect starts Google’s sign-in or profile flow. Signing in does not grant free rewards. An internet connection and Play Games profile are required for the paid Play wallet.

When connected, the game uses your Play Games player ID and sends earned achievement identifiers and completion status to Google. Google manages your gamer name, avatar and achievement records under your profile settings. To connect the paid wallet, a temporary server authentication code is sent to our service to verify your Play Games identity with Google. The game does not request your Google email address, contacts or friends list, or upload your full adventure save. Chat, voice chat and friend requests are not included.

The Play Games SDK automatically collects analytics and diagnostics to maintain and improve the service. Google's services may also process device and app information, identifiers and network information such as IP addresses under the Google Privacy Policy. See Google's Play Games data disclosure. Offline gameplay does not mean that an installed Google service never processes data.

This edition shows no advertisements and does not include Google Mobile Ads or UMP advertising software. Unity Analytics and Unity cloud error reporting are disabled. The developer does not receive your full game save. Website visits and support email involve the separate processing described below.

Optional purchases and your Play wallet

Google Play handles payments for optional Nova Essence packs. We do not receive your payment card details. Our service verifies the product and purchase token with Google before recording purchased Nova. Purchased Nova and cosmetics bought with it are tied to your Play Games profile; earning and spending local Nova remains available offline. Buying or spending paid Nova needs an online connection. The two balances are separate, and each item is paid in full from one balance.

The wallet service runs on Cloudflare Workers and D1. It stores a pseudonymous account identifier derived from your verified Play Games player ID, your paid Nova balance, owned cosmetic product identifiers, purchase-token hashes, purchased products and amounts, spending request identifiers and outcomes, and transaction timestamps. This supports restoration, payment delivery and prevention of duplicate credits or spending. A hash of the temporary session token is kept for access control; sessions expire after one hour.

Server authentication codes, Google access tokens, the raw Play Games player ID and raw purchase tokens are processed transiently and are not saved by the wallet service. No full adventure save or payment card data is sent to it. Cloudflare processes network and request information to run and secure its platform. Google processes payment and Play Games information under its own policies. Unity IAP 5.3.1 connects native Google Play billing with Unity IAP Analytics disabled; the game does not initialize Unity Analytics or Unity authentication for purchases.

Notifications and device features

If you give permission, the game schedules local notifications on your device for travel arrivals or completed workshop jobs. You can change notification permission in Android's app settings. Game saves are not sent to a server to create notifications.

Device vibration may be used during game interactions. The game does not use your microphone, camera, contacts or location information.

Children's privacy

Space Voyage: Little Explorers is designed for children and adults. The game does not ask for an age or date of birth, show advertisements, or send children's full game saves to the developer. The local explorer name stays in the device save and is separate from Google's gamer profile.

A child can play the full adventure without Play Games or purchases. Any approval needed for a child's Google Play Games profile is handled by Google and the parent through Google's supervision and Family Link controls. We do not collect that approval or create a profile automatically. An already approved profile may connect automatically. Google's service processing described above still applies; see Google's parent controls.

Google Play applies payment methods, purchase authentication and family approval settings. The game does not collect a child’s date of birth or a parent’s approval. Parents can manage these controls through Google; the game does not promise that every purchase prompts for approval.

We recommend that a parent or legal guardian contact us when a child needs support. A child's real name, age or other personal information is not needed in support messages.

Keeping and deleting game saves

Local game saves are kept on your device so you can continue playing. You can delete them by clearing the game's data in Android's application storage settings. This also deletes mission progress and earned items.

Uninstalling the game may also remove application data from the device. Operating system backup and restore behavior depends on device settings. If such backups exist, you can manage them through your device or backup service settings.

The developer does not keep a copy of your full adventure save. We cannot recover lost mission progress or earned Nova from our service. Purchased Nova remaining in the Play wallet and cosmetics bought with it can be restored by connecting the same Play Games profile, unless you deleted that wallet. Clearing local data does not delete the paid wallet.

Play Games achievements, the paid wallet and your local adventure are separate. This game does not use Google Saved Games. Manage automatic sign-in, profile visibility and Google’s records in Play Games or Google Account settings. Clearing this app’s data does not delete Google’s records or the paid wallet; deleting Google records does not automatically erase your local adventure or our paid wallet records. Google's game data deletion instructions explain the available controls.

To delete your paid wallet, open Menu → Account → Play wallet → Delete Play wallet and type DELETE. After confirmation, its remaining paid Nova, paid cosmetics, associated transaction details and sessions are deleted and cannot be restored. This does not refund Google Play purchases or delete your local adventure, earned Nova or earned items. Only unlinked purchase-token hashes are retained while the service operates to stop deleted purchases being credited again; they retain no account, product, amount or timestamp. Deletion removes live wallet records immediately. On our current Cloudflare Free plan, restricted recovery backups may keep earlier copies for up to 7 days before normal expiry. For help with privacy or deletion, contact info@spacevoyage.online.
