Kan Games – Privacy Policy
In short: Kan Games has no account, no ads, no analytics and no crash reporting. The only thing it sends over the internet is your high score, with the nickname you type, to the online hall of fame, and you can switch that off in the app's Settings.
This policy describes how the Android app Kan Games (package com.driot.multigame),
developed by Antoine Driot, handles your information.
Online hall of fame
When you enter a nickname for a high score, the app sends it to halloffame.driot.com, a service run by the developer:
- the nickname you typed, the score, the level reached, the game and its difficulty;
- your country (taken from your SIM card or your phone's language settings);
- your phone model.
The website publishes the nickname, the country (as a flag), the score and the date. The phone model is kept for the developer only and is never published. Your IP address is not stored: only a one-way hash, kept for a couple of hours, is used to limit abuse. Do not use your real name if you do not want it shown.
Nothing is sent before you agree. The first time you save a high score, the app asks whether to share your scores online, and says to answer Yes only if you are 13 or older or a parent agrees. You can change the answer at any time for all games with “Share my high scores” in the app's Settings; if sharing is off, your scores stay on your phone. A score that cannot be sent (no network) is kept on the phone and sent later, unless you turn sharing off. To have a nickname removed from the website, contact the developer (see below).
Information stored on your device
Your settings, your own hall of fame (the names you type and your scores), the levels you have unlocked and a game you left in the middle are kept on your phone. Uninstalling the app erases them; a score you already shared stays on the online hall of fame until removed.
Two players
To play at two, the app uses Nearby Connections, a part of Google Play services, to find the other phone and talk to it over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. That needs the “nearby devices” permission (on Android 12 and older, Bluetooth and location permissions, which Android requires for any app that scans for nearby devices; the app does not read your location). What the two phones exchange is the game itself: moves, lines sent, scores, and the model name of each phone, shown to the other player while they connect. Nothing is kept.
What Kan Games does not do
- No account or sign-in.
- No advertising, no analytics, no crash-reporting or tracking services.
- No location, contacts, photos, microphone or other personal data are accessed.
- No data is sold or shared with third parties.
Children
Kan Games is not directed at children under 13. The only data it can send, the high score, is sent only after the player confirms being 13 or older, or having a parent's agreement, and we do not knowingly keep data from children under 13 without it. To have a score removed, contact the developer.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with an updated date.
