Advertising and consent
Free versions show ads served by Google AdMob. On first launch:
- in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, a consent form (Google UMP, IAB TCF certified) lets you accept or refuse personalized advertising;
- on iOS, Apple asks whether you allow tracking (App Tracking Transparency). If you decline, the advertising identifier is not accessible.
If you refuse, non-personalized ads may still be shown. You can change your mind at any time: on iPhone under Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking; on Android under Settings › Google › Ads; or by reinstalling the app to see the consent form again.
The remove-ads purchase (ColorRush) or GuessRush Premium turns ads off.
Camera (ColorRush, experimental AR mode)
The experimental AR mode, off by default and available in the settings, uses the front camera to detect the position of your hand. Frames are analyzed in real time on the device (Apple’s Vision framework) and are never recorded or transmitted, to us or to anyone else. Camera access is only requested if you start this mode, and you can revoke it in iOS Settings.

Your rights
Under the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, object to and port your data, and to withdraw your consent at any time. French residents may also set instructions regarding their data after death.
Since we don’t know who you are, please mention the game concerned and, if possible, the approximate installation date; we may ask for additional information to locate the data linked to your installation. Email us at [À COMPLÉTER : e-mail]: we reply within one month.
You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority — in France, the CNIL. California residents: we do not sell or share personal information as defined by the CCPA.

Our games are not specifically directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data about them. If you believe a child has provided us with data, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
All communication between the games and servers is encrypted (HTTPS). Access to data is restricted to the people who need it.
