Privacy Policy for Path Coach

April 23, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Path Coach ("the Game", "we", "our") handles your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy. Please read this document carefully.

1. Overview

Path Coach is a casual educational math drill game designed for quick play sessions on mobile. The Game offers 50 progressive levels across 5 difficulty worlds, a daily challenge system with streak tracking, a weekly local tournament, and 20 unlockable achievements. Path Coach is designed with an offline-first approach: all game progress and preferences are stored exclusively on your device and never transmitted to our servers.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any of the following:

• Personal identification information (name, email, phone number, etc.)
• Account credentials or authentication tokens
• Device location or GPS coordinates (the Game does not request location permissions)
• Usage analytics, crash reports, or behavioral telemetry
• Advertising identifiers or tracking cookies
• Your gameplay patterns, session times, or in-game choices

3. Data Stored Locally on Your Device

The following data is stored only on your device using Android's Room database and DataStore, and is never sent to any external server:

• Game progress: current level unlocked, stars earned per level (1–3), best score per level, completion timestamps
• Highscores: best score per level, all-time best score, weekly best score for tournament display
• Achievements: which of the 20 achievements are unlocked and their completion dates
• Daily Challenge records: date played, completion status, score, current daily streak counter
• Game statistics: total games played, total correct answers, total coins earned, best combo streak, total time spent in-game
• Preferences: theme (Light/Dark/System), sound effects on/off, background music on/off, haptic feedback on/off, stored via Android DataStore

All locally stored data remains under your full control. You may reset game progress via the Settings screen (Reset Progress), or uninstall the Game to remove all data permanently.

4. Third-Party Services — None

The Game does not communicate with any third-party services. All gameplay, progress tracking, daily challenges, tournament rankings, and all other features work entirely offline. This section does not apply.

5. Permissions

The Game requests the following permissions:

• `android.permission.VIBRATE` — used locally for haptic feedback during gameplay events (correct answers, combos, game over). No vibration data is collected or transmitted.

The Game does NOT request:

• Location (GPS, coarse, background)
• Camera or microphone
• Contacts
• Phone state or identifiers
• SMS or call log access
• Photos, media, or file access
• Internet access

6. No Advertising or Analytics SDKs

Path Coach does not integrate any advertising networks (AdMob, Unity Ads, AppLovin, etc.), analytics SDKs (Firebase Analytics, GameAnalytics, Amplitude, etc.), or third-party tracking libraries. There are no ads of any kind within the Game, and no in-app purchases.

7. Children's Privacy

The Game does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. Since the Game collects no personal information from any user, it is safe for use by all ages.

8. Data Security

Because all game progress and user-generated data is stored locally on your device, the security of that data depends on the security measures provided by the Android operating system and your device (screen lock, encryption, etc.). We do not control how Android handles on-device storage security, but we do not expose any data to external parties.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in an updated version of this document bundled with a new Game release. The date at the top of this page will be revised accordingly. Continued use of the Game after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
