Privacy policy.

Last updated: October 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how information is processed when you use the PlayKovo mobile application (“PlayKovo”, the “app”, “we”, or “us”). You may use the app as a guest; creating an account is optional.

1. Information we collect

Account and authentication information

• If you register with email and password, we process your email address, Supabase user ID, session tokens, and account timestamps. Your password is not shown to us in plain text.
• If you continue with Google or Apple, we may receive an account identifier, email address, and basic profile information such as a name you choose to share. We do not receive your Google or Apple password.

Library and game information

• For guest play, favorites, recently played games, total play count, daily streak state, language, app preferences, and a catalog cache are stored on your device.
• When you sign in, favorites and recent games from the device may be transferred to your account and synchronized between devices through Supabase.
• For supported games, progress sent through the PlayKovo cloud-save bridge may be stored with your account. Its contents vary by game and are used to restore your game experience.

Usage, analytics, and advertising events

• Game-card taps, game-session starts, the game played, and active play time while the app is in the foreground.
• A random analytics identifier generated on the device, a game-session identifier, app language, and basic technical error or performance information.
• Ad requests, impressions, closes, rewards, cooldowns, and errors, together with the game, ad format, and placement.

Our mobile game-session table does not store your raw IP address. For advertising security and abuse prevention, an IP address and user-agent may be converted into a one-way hash; the raw values are not written to the ad-event row.

2. Why we use information

• Create accounts, maintain sessions, and securely complete sign-in links.
• Store and synchronize favorites, recent games, and supported cloud saves.
• Provide the game catalog, understand which games are useful, and measure active play time.
• Serve ads, return rewarded-ad results to games, manage frequency, and prevent advertising fraud.
• Fix errors, protect the service, answer requests, and comply with legal obligations.

Where applicable, our legal bases are performance of a contract to provide the service, legitimate interests in security and service improvement, your consent for processing that requires permission, and compliance with legal obligations.

3. Advertising and Google AdMob

The app may show interstitial and rewarded ads through Google AdMob. Under its own policies, Google may process information such as IP address, advertising identifier, device and operating-system information, approximate location, app activity, and ad interactions for delivery, measurement, frequency capping, security, and fraud prevention. Depending on your region, device settings, and choices, ads may be personalized, non-personalized, or limited.

Read how Google uses data from partner apps and the Google Privacy Policy. You can manage advertising identifiers and personalization through your device's privacy or advertising settings.

PlayKovo Mobile does not currently use the Yandex Mobile Ads SDK. If Yandex or another advertising provider is added later, this policy and the required in-app notices or choices will be updated before that provider is used.

4. Games, WebView, and open-source content

Games in the mobile catalog are delivered from PlayKovo infrastructure and run inside an in-app WebView. A game may use WebView storage to remember progress or connect to network resources required to operate. Such a request may expose an IP address, user-agent, and technical connection information to the destination server.

Some games are provided under open-source licenses, with applicable license information shown on the game page. Open-source status does not by itself mean that a game processes no data. Our catalog review is not a guarantee that game code sends zero data in every circumstance.

5. Who receives information

• Supabase: authentication, database hosting, favorites, recent games, cloud saves, and mobile analytics records.
• Google AdMob and Google Play services: advertising, measurement, security, and app infrastructure.
• Google and Apple: authentication only when you choose to sign in with that provider.
• Hosting and content-delivery providers: delivery of the PlayKovo website, APIs, game files, and images.
• Authorities or advisers: when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect rights, security, or investigate fraud.

We do not sell personal information for money. Service providers may process information under their own contracts and privacy rules.

6. Retention and deletion

We keep account and cloud data while your account is active or as needed to provide the service. Security, advertising, and analytics records are retained for reasonable periods for measurement, debugging, and fraud prevention. When an account is deleted, account-linked fields are deleted or disassociated. Limited records may be retained longer when required for law, disputes, or security.

For deletion steps and the categories deleted or retained, visit Account and data deletion. Uninstalling the app or clearing app storage removes local device data but does not by itself delete a server account.

7. Security and international transfers

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures such as access controls, encrypted connections, and authorization rules. No internet transmission or storage method is completely risk-free. Providers may process data outside your country; contractual and legal transfer safeguards are used where applicable.

8. Your rights and choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, receive a copy of, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your data and to withdraw consent. Send a request from your registered email address to [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity and ownership of the account.

9. Children's privacy

PlayKovo is a general-audience game catalog and is not directed specifically to children under 13. Contact us if you believe we knowingly collected personal data from a child under 13. Where local law requires a higher age of digital consent, consent from a parent or guardian is required.

10. Changes and contact

We may update this policy when the app, providers, or legal requirements change. For material changes, we will update the date on this page and provide an in-app notice where appropriate. Send questions and privacy requests to [email protected].
