Privacy policy

1. What the app keeps on your phone

Your progress (completed levels and stars, record in lanes), your coin balance, your unlocked and equipped outfits, and your settings (music, effects, vibration, reduced motion, language) are saved on your device only. Pico has no user account. This data is deleted when you uninstall the app.

2. What we do not collect

We do not ask for your name, your email address or your precise location, and the app does not access your contacts, microphone, camera or files. It only uses network access and vibration.

3. Leaderboards

To take part in the daily or endless leaderboard, the app creates a "guest" profile on our servers: a random identifier and a secret token (we only keep its fingerprint). For each ranked run, it sends the game mode, the attempt identifier, a compact log of your inputs (which lets the server replay the run and check the score), the number of lanes crossed, the time and the game versions.

Your nickname ("Guest" by default, editable) and your scores are visible to all players on the leaderboards: do not put personal information in it. The service is hosted by Cloudflare, which processes the technical data of a network request (for example the IP address). The game stays fully playable offline, sending nothing.

To have your profile and scores removed from the leaderboards, write to us at [email protected] with your nickname.

4. Google Play Games (optional)

The app may offer to link your leaderboard profile to your Google Play Games account, to recover it on another phone. This link is optional: if you accept, Google processes your sign-in under its own privacy policy, and we receive a player identifier to connect the two profiles.

5. Advertising (Google AdMob)

Pico shows ads: banners, occasional ads in the menus, and an optional rewarded video to double your coins. They are provided by Google AdMob, which may use your device's advertising ID, your IP address and technical information to display and measure ads.

On first launch, a consent form (Google UMP) asks for your choices where the law requires it. You can change them at any time in Settings > Privacy, and reset or limit the advertising ID in Android settings. See Google's policy.

6. In-app purchases (Google Play, RevenueCat)

The game offers optional, purely cosmetic purchases: a support skin, a theme pack and a founder pack. Payments are handled by Google Play: we never see or store your payment information.

We use RevenueCat to check that a purchase is active and to restore it, for example on a new device. RevenueCat receives an anonymous identifier generated by the app, your purchase history and the usual technical data of a network request (IP address, app version, device model), but neither your name nor your email. See RevenueCat's policy.

7. Google Play services

The app may use Google Play services to check whether an update is available and offer it to you. Google then processes technical data under its privacy policy.

8. Your choices and rights

At any time you can: turn off music, effects and vibration; change your ad choices; uninstall the app to erase local data; ask us to delete your leaderboard profile. Depending on your country, you may also request access to, correction of or erasure of your data by writing to [email protected].

9. Children

Pico is intended for people aged 13 and over. We do not knowingly collect data about younger children. If you believe a child has submitted a nickname or data, contact us so that we can delete it.

10. Changes

We may update this page, for example if the app changes. The date of the last update is shown at the top of the page.
