Privacy Policy
In short: Taşıyıcı has no account and no server of its own. Your progress and settings stay on your device; no personal data is sent to the developer. Apple handles purchases and Game Center, and Google AdMob handles ads; the data those services process is described below.
1. Data controller
This privacy policy covers the iOS game Taşıyıcı (the “Game”). The data controller and developer is Umut Can Alparslan (an individual), Türkiye. Contact: destek@umutalparslan.com.
2. Data stored on your device
Your game progress (jobs, money, vehicles, achievements), your settings and ad-frequency counters are stored on your device only and are not sent to us. Images you take in photo mode also stay in the Game’s folder on your device. Depending on your iOS settings this data may be included in iCloud or computer device backups; backups are an Apple service. If you delete the Game, this data is deleted too.
3. Data we do not collect
The Game does not collect your name, e-mail address, phone number, precise location, contacts, photo library, health data or camera and microphone data. We do not send personal data to a server of our own; the Game has no account, login or user profile.
4. Purchases (Apple)
In-app purchases are processed by Apple (App Store). As the developer we do not see your payment or card details; Apple only passes us aggregated sales reports. Your purchase history is tied to your Apple ID and governed by Apple’s privacy policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.
5. Game Center (Apple)
For achievements and leaderboards the Game optionally uses Apple Game Center. Your player alias, achievements and scores are processed by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy. You can turn Game Center off in the Game under Settings ▸ Game.
6. Advertising (Google AdMob)
The Game shows optional rewarded ads (boosted rewards, free fuel or tow) and occasional interstitial ads through Google AdMob. Ads are served by Google, which may process the following to serve, measure and secure ads:
- the device/advertising identifier (IDFA) and other device identifiers;
- approximate location derived from your IP address (not precise location);
- ad interactions (impressions, clicks, video views) and product interaction;
- device and app information (model, iOS version, app version), crash and performance data.
Google processes this data under its own privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. As the developer we do not see this data per person; from AdMob we only receive aggregated revenue and performance reports. The Game uses Google AdMob as its only ad network; ad content is limited to the “G” (general audiences) level, in line with the app’s age rating.
Tracking permission (ATT) and personalisation
On iOS, before your advertising identifier (IDFA) is used, you are asked for permission through the App Tracking Transparency (ATT) prompt; it appears after the first three jobs, while you are in a menu. If you decline, the Game works the same and ads are not personalised. With non-personalised ads Google may still process limited data (e.g. IP address, device information) to serve ads and prevent abuse. You can change your choice any time in iOS Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ Tracking.
EU, UK and EEA: consent (UMP)
In these regions Google’s User Messaging Platform (UMP) consent form is shown and your explicit consent is requested for ad data. You can change or withdraw your choices any time in the Game under Settings ▸ About ▸ Ad privacy options. If you do not consent, ads may not be shown.
Remove Ads
The one-time Remove Ads purchase in the Store turns off interstitial ads; optional rewarded ads remain for you to watch if you want to.
7. Third-party services
| Service | Purpose | Data processed | Policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob (Google Mobile Ads SDK, UMP) | Ads, consent form | IDFA, approximate location (IP), ad and product interaction, device information, crash/performance | Google Privacy Policy |
| Apple App Store | In-app purchases | Payment and purchase information (does not reach us) | Apple Privacy Policy |
| Apple Game Center | Achievements, leaderboards | Player alias, achievements and scores | Apple Privacy Policy |
8. Children’s privacy
Taşıyıcı is not designed for children and is not in the App Store Kids category. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If a higher age applies to the processing of personal data in your country, you should not use the Game without parental consent below that age. If you believe a child has given us data, write to destek@umutalparslan.com and we will delete it. Ad content is limited to the “G” rating.
9. Retention and deletion
Data on your device is deleted when you delete the Game from your device. Data held by Apple and Google (your purchase records, Game Center data, ad data) is governed by those services’ own policies; to have it deleted you can contact the relevant service (e.g. your Apple Account, Google’s ad settings). We hold no per-person data about you; you can still send any request about your data to destek@umutalparslan.com.
10. Your rights (KVKK and GDPR)
Under Article 11 of Türkiye’s Personal Data Protection Law No. 6698 (KVKK) you may apply to the data controller to learn whether your personal data is processed and request information about it; learn the purpose of processing and whether it is used accordingly; know the third parties to whom it is transferred in Türkiye or abroad; request correction if it is incomplete or incorrect; request deletion or destruction; request that these actions be notified to third parties to whom the data was transferred; object to an adverse result arising from automated analysis; and claim compensation for damage caused by unlawful processing.
If you are in the European Union, the United Kingdom or the EEA you have, under the GDPR, the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection, data portability and to withdraw your consent at any time; you may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. In Türkiye the complaint authority is the Personal Data Protection Authority (kvkk.gov.tr).
Send your requests to destek@umutalparslan.com. We may ask for the minimum information needed to verify your identity and will reply within thirty days at the latest. Because the Game holds no per-person data with us, your request may often need to be directed to Apple or Google; in that case we will explain how to apply.
11. International transfers
Google and Apple may process data in countries outside Türkiye (e.g. the United States, the EU). These transfers fall under those companies’ own policies and legal mechanisms.
12. Changes to this policy
This policy may be updated as the Game’s features or the law change. For important changes the date on this page is renewed; the current text is always published at this address.
