Privacy Policy

Last Updated: 17 July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Görkem Koşar (“I,” “me,” “my,” or the “Owner”) collects, uses, stores, shares, publishes, transfers, and protects personal data in connection with Fallen Fur (the “Game”), its related services, and external pet-submission activities.

This Privacy Policy should be read together with the Terms and Conditions and, where applicable, the separate Pet Submission, AI Illustration and Publication Agreement.

1. Who I Am

For the purposes of applicable privacy laws, the operator and data controller of the Game is:

Address: Hüseyin Yurttaş Sk. No:30 D:2, Bostanlı Mah., Karşıyaka, İzmir, Türkiye

2. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to personal data processed in connection with:

This Privacy Policy does not govern third-party websites, social-media platforms, app stores, payment providers, login providers, or other services that independently determine how they process personal data.

3. Categories of Personal Data I May Process

The categories processed depend on which features you use.

3.1 Account and identification data

I may process:

Passwords used for email/password authentication are handled through the authentication provider. I do not intend to receive or store passwords in readable form.

3.2 Birth year and age-treatment status

On first launch, the Game asks the user to select a birth year.

The birth year is used to determine whether the user is:

The raw birth year is intended to remain stored locally on the device. I do not currently intend to send the raw birth year to Firebase, analytics providers, advertising providers, or my own remote database for demographic statistics.

The Game may send or apply an age-treatment status or privacy flag, rather than the raw birth year, to advertising and consent systems. Examples include flags indicating that a user:

The locally stored birth year or age classification may remain on the device until the app data is cleared, the Game is uninstalled, the setting is reset, or the information is otherwise removed.

The age gate is based on information entered by the user. I do not normally independently verify every user’s age.

3.3 Device, network, and technical data

I and my service providers may process:

I do not intentionally request or collect precise GPS location for the Game.

Country or coarse region may be inferred from IP address, device settings, app-store region, consent-provider information, or similar technical signals.

3.4 Gameplay, progress, and usage data

I may process:

This information may be stored locally, in Firebase Firestore, or through another service used to operate the Game.

3.5 Data received from Google or Apple sign-in

If you choose Google or Apple sign-in, I may receive:

The information received depends on your provider settings and the permissions granted.

I do not use Facebook login.

3.6 Purchase and subscription data

If you make a purchase or begin a subscription, I may receive:

Payments are processed through Apple, Google, and related providers. RevenueCat may be used to validate purchases and manage entitlements.

I do not receive your complete payment-card number, card security code, or full banking details from Apple or Google.

3.7 Notification data

If gameplay reminders or other permitted notifications are enabled, I or a notification provider may process:

You can disable notifications through the Game where available or through your device settings.

At present, notifications are intended primarily for gameplay reminders rather than unrelated third-party marketing.

3.8 Device gallery and saved images

If you use a feature that saves an image, sticker, or share card to your gallery, the Game may request the device permission or system access needed to complete the save.

I do not intend to collect the other photos already stored in your gallery merely because you use the export function.

The Game should access only the permissions reasonably required for the feature, subject to the operating system’s behavior.

3.9 Support, complaints, and legal communications

When you contact me, I may process:

Please do not send unnecessary sensitive personal information.

4. Pet Submissions Received Outside the Game

The Game may include daily or special levels based on pets whose owners voluntarily submit materials outside the Game.

Pet submissions may be received through:

Pet submissions are accepted only from individuals aged 18 or over.

A separate Pet Submission, AI Illustration and Publication Agreement must be affirmatively accepted before I rely on a submission for publication.

4.1 Pet-submission data I may receive

A pet submission may include:

A photograph of an animal may not identify a person by itself. However, when combined with an owner’s name, account, link, story, message history, or file metadata, it may become associated with an identifiable person and be treated as personal data.

4.2 Prohibited pet-submission content

Pet submissions must not contain:

Submitters should remove unnecessary metadata, including precise location metadata, before sending files.

I may inspect, redact, crop, reject, or delete material that appears to include prohibited information. I cannot guarantee that I will identify every hidden or embedded item before receiving or processing a file.

4.3 Purposes of pet-submission processing

I may process pet-submission data to:

4.4 AI and external processing of pet materials

I may use one or more external artificial-intelligence, image-generation, image-editing, text-editing, storage, hosting, communication, or production services.

The specific provider, model, software, or combination of services may vary depending on:

Pet photos, text, and related information may be transferred to and processed by these providers to create, edit, host, or manage content.

Some providers may process data in countries outside Türkiye or the submitter’s country. Their retention, security, and service-improvement practices are governed by their own terms, privacy policies, account settings, and service configurations.

Where reasonably available and appropriate, I may use privacy settings intended to limit unnecessary retention or model training. However, I cannot make an absolute guarantee about every provider’s independent technical processing.

A submitter who wants information about the category or identity of a provider intended for a particular submission may contact me before submitting materials.

4.5 Public publication of pet materials

If selected, some or all of the following may be made public worldwide:

Publication may occur:

Publicly displayed content can be viewed worldwide and may be copied, photographed, screen-recorded, cached, indexed, downloaded, archived, or reposted by other people.

Even if I later remove content from the Game or accounts under my control, I may be unable to remove:

4.6 Free and paid pet submissions

Pet submissions may sometimes be free and may sometimes require payment.

The same privacy principles apply whether the submission is free, paid, promotional, or invitation-based.

Where a paid opportunity is offered, purchase and entitlement data may be processed through Apple, Google, RevenueCat, or another authorized provider.

The payment arrangement and publication conditions are governed by the Terms and Conditions, purchase disclosures, and the Pet Submission Agreement.

5. How I Use Personal Data

I may use personal data to:

6. Advertising, Age Treatment, and Consent

The Game uses Unity LevelPlay for advertising mediation.

Depending on the platform and Game version, advertisements may be supplied through:

If another advertising provider is added, this Privacy Policy and applicable store disclosures should be updated where necessary.

Meta Audience Network is not part of the current advertising stack as of the Last Updated date.

6.1 Users under 16

If the locally entered birth year indicates that a user is under 16:

Some technical data and persistent identifiers may still be processed where necessary to:

Such data must not be intentionally used by me to build a behavioral-advertising profile for an under-16 user.

6.2 Users aged 16 or over in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland

For users aged 16 or over in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the Game uses Google User Messaging Platform, Google’s consent-management system, where required.

The consent form may allow the user to:

If consent is declined or not obtained, advertisements may still be shown, but they should be non-personalized or otherwise limited according to the available consent signals and provider requirements.

The Game includes a Privacy Choices option in Settings that can reopen Google’s privacy-options form where available.

6.3 Apple tracking permission

For eligible iOS users aged 16 or over, the Game may show an explanation before requesting Apple’s native tracking permission.

If the user continues, Apple displays its own system permission dialog.

If permission is denied, restricted, not requested, or otherwise unavailable:

Apple’s tracking permission and European advertising consent are separate requirements. Granting one does not automatically grant the other.

6.4 Users outside the EEA, UK, and Switzerland

For eligible users outside the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, advertising treatment may depend on:

Where applicable law provides a right to opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or sharing, users may use available Privacy Choices controls or contact me.

6.5 No sale for money

I do not intend to sell personal data to data brokers in exchange for money.

However, some disclosures of identifiers or advertising data to advertising partners may be legally classified as a “sale,” “sharing,” or use for “targeted advertising” under certain United States state laws, even when no money is directly paid for the data.

Where such rights apply, eligible users may request to opt out.

7. Analytics and Diagnostics

The Game may use:

Analytics providers may process:

I do not currently intend to send the user’s raw birth year to analytics systems.

Analytics may be limited for under-16 users as required by applicable law, provider settings, platform rules, and the purposes permitted for internal operation.

8. Service Providers and Recipients

I may disclose personal data to providers that perform services on my behalf or independently provide platform functionality.

Current or potential categories include:

8.1 Game infrastructure and authentication

8.2 Advertising and consent

8.3 Purchases and subscriptions

8.4 Notifications

8.5 Pet submissions and communications

8.6 AI and content-production providers

8.7 Legal and safety recipients

Personal data may also be disclosed:

where disclosure is required or permitted by law or reasonably necessary to protect legal rights, safety, security, or the integrity of the Game.

Service providers may process data under their own terms and privacy policies. Some act only on instructions, while others independently determine certain processing activities.

9. Legal Grounds for Processing

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, I may rely on:

9.1 Performance of a contract

To:

9.2 Legitimate interests

To:

I consider whether these interests are overridden by the rights of the affected person, particularly where children are involved.

9.3 Consent

Where required, I may rely on consent for:

Advertising consent may be changed through the Privacy Choices feature where available.

Pet-submission consent and authorization are handled separately through the Pet Submission Agreement.

9.4 Legal obligations

To:

9.5 Establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims

I may retain and use limited information where reasonably necessary to:

10. Children’s Privacy

The Game is intended for a general audience and is not directed primarily to children.

The Game uses a neutral birth-year screen before advertising and consent systems are initialized.

10.1 Users under 16

Users under 16:

Children should use the Game with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian where required.

10.2 Users under 13

Users under 13 must not create a registered account, use third-party sign-in, provide an email address, or intentionally submit personal data unless a legally valid parental-consent process is available.

Where no verified parental-consent process is available, users under 13 should use only the guest experience and should not contact support in a way that reveals unnecessary personal information.

Necessary technical identifiers may still be processed for limited internal operations, such as:

only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If I learn that personal data beyond permitted internal operations has been collected from a child under 13 without required parental consent, I will take reasonable steps to delete or restrict it.

Parents or legal guardians may contact fallenfurgame@gmail.com regarding a child’s information.

10.3 Pet submissions

Pet submissions are not accepted directly from anyone under 18.

A minor’s parent or legal guardian should not submit on behalf of the minor unless I have expressly approved a separate process in writing.

11. Data Retention

I retain personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, subject to legal, technical, security, and dispute-related needs.

Retention depends on the data category.

11.1 Account and progress data

Account, profile, and cloud-save data may be retained while the account remains active and until deletion is requested, subject to limited lawful retention.

11.2 Guest data

Guest data may remain:

11.3 Purchase records

Purchase and subscription information may be retained for the period required to:

Apple, Google, and RevenueCat may retain separate records under their own policies.

11.4 Advertising and consent records

Consent and privacy-choice records may be retained as necessary to:

11.5 Support and legal records

Support, complaint, and legal-request records may be retained while needed to resolve the matter and afterward for a reasonable period to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

11.6 Pet-submission materials

Pending, rejected, selected, and published pet-submission materials may be retained while reasonably necessary to:

Original materials that are no longer needed should be deleted, anonymized, or periodically reviewed.

Agreement, consent, and permission records may be retained for the applicable legal limitation period or as otherwise reasonably necessary to prove authorization.

Published illustrations and creative materials may remain part of Game, promotional, archival, or production records, subject to applicable privacy rights and the Pet Submission Agreement.

I do not claim an unlimited right to retain personal data where applicable law requires deletion.

11.7 Backups

Deleted information may remain temporarily in restricted backups until it is overwritten through ordinary backup cycles, unless immediate removal is technically and legally required.

12. Account and Data Deletion

Users may initiate account deletion within the Game where available.

An external deletion request can also be made through:

https://www.fallenfur.com/account-deletion

or by contacting:

fallenfurgame@gmail.com

Following a valid deletion request, I will generally delete or de-identify:

I may retain limited information where reasonably necessary for:

Account deletion may not:

Deleting the Game from a device is not necessarily the same as deleting a registered account or cloud data.

13. Pet-Submission Withdrawal and Removal Requests

A pet submitter may contact me to exercise applicable privacy rights concerning their personal data.

Where processing is based on consent, consent may be withdrawn to the extent provided by applicable law.

Withdrawal:

I will evaluate requests involving published pet content in light of:

Where removal is required or accepted, I will take reasonable steps regarding content under my control. I cannot guarantee deletion from third-party screenshots, recordings, archives, caches, downloads, search engines, or reposts.

14. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

These rights may be limited by:

To make a request, contact:

fallenfurgame@gmail.com

Please describe:

I will respond within the period required by applicable law.

I may refuse or limit requests that are manifestly unfounded, excessive, fraudulent, impossible to verify, or legally exempt, subject to applicable law.

You may also have the right to contact the Turkish Personal Data Protection Authority or another competent supervisory authority.

15. Privacy Choices and Consent Withdrawal

Eligible users can access Privacy Choices through the Game’s Settings menu.

This may allow users to:

Apple tracking permission can also be reviewed through iOS device settings.

Notification permission can be changed through device settings.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing completed before withdrawal.

16. Automated Decisions and Profiling

The age gate and consent systems automatically determine which advertising and privacy flow applies.

For example:

These automated settings are used for privacy protection and advertising treatment.

I do not currently intend to make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects concerning a user.

17. International Data Transfers

I am based in Türkiye.

Service providers may process data in:

Those countries may have privacy laws different from the user’s country.

Where required, I will rely on an applicable transfer mechanism, contractual protection, consent, legal exception, or another lawful safeguard.

Pet submitters should understand that worldwide publication necessarily makes approved public material accessible in many countries.

18. Security

I use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal data.

These may include, where appropriate:

However, no storage, transmission, account, platform, or security system is completely secure.

I cannot guarantee:

If a personal-data breach occurs, I will take reasonable steps and provide notifications where required by applicable law.

19. External Platforms and Links

Pet submissions may be sent through Instagram, email, cloud-storage services, or other platforms.

Those platforms independently process:

I do not control their processing.

If the Game displays an Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, website, or other external link, opening the link may allow the external service to collect information about the visit.

I am not responsible for the privacy, security, availability, or content of external services.

20. Changes in Ownership or Operation

If the Game or related business is sold, transferred, reorganized, outsourced, inherited, or operated by another person or entity, relevant personal data may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

The recipient may continue processing data for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy unless users are informed otherwise.

21. Changes to This Privacy Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy when:

The “Last Updated” date will be revised.

If changes are material, I may provide notice through:

Where renewed consent is legally required, I will request it before the relevant processing.
