1. Who we are
This Privacy Policy explains how BeresAds OÜ ("we", "us", "our"), registry code 16521404, Vesivärava tn 50-201, Kesklinna linnaosa, 10152 Tallinn, Harju maakond, Estonia, collects, uses and shares personal data when you play Parrot Rush (the "Game"), visit our website or contact our support.
BeresAds OÜ is the data controller for the personal data described here. Contact for privacy questions and requests: [email protected].
Parrot Rush is a free-to-play arcade game for entertainment only, for players aged 18 and over. It offers no real-money gambling and no prizes of real-world value.
2. Your account and Player ID
You can play as a guest or sign in with Google Play Games. Either way, the Game creates an account with a random identifier, your Player ID. All data that reaches our servers is linked to this Player ID, not to your name, email or phone number. You can see your Player ID in the Profile screen and tap it to copy it.
We do not ask for your email address, phone number or real name. We receive your email address only if you write to us.

Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy. Firebase privacy and security: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy. How Google uses data from apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Unity's privacy policy: https://unity.com/legal/privacy-policy.
Reminders about the Game are scheduled on your device and do not send data to anyone.
6. What other players see
Other players can see your nickname, avatar, crown and best result on the leaderboards if you are in the top 20 of your group. Their apps also receive the Player IDs of the players in that top 20, and a reserved nickname can be linked to its owner's Player ID. Do not put information in your nickname that you do not want other players to see.
7. Advertising and consent
Where the law requires it, for example in the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, the Game shows a consent form from Google before ads and analytics that need consent. You can change your choices at any time in Settings → Privacy Settings. Where consent is required, analytics runs in consent mode according to your choice.
You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings. You will still see ads, but they may be less relevant.
The Game asks for permission before sending push notifications. You can turn notifications off at any time in Settings → Notifications or in your device settings; turning them off deletes the push token.
8. Retention
| Data | How long we keep it |
|---|---|
| Account, profile, game progress, cloud copy, nickname reservation | until you delete your account |
| Leaderboard entries | all-time, current-week and last-week entries until you delete your account; older weekly entries (steps and time only, no nickname) are not deleted |
| Purchase records | as long as needed for accounting, refunds and fraud prevention, and at least as long as tax and accounting law requires; they are kept after account deletion |
| Gameplay analytics | up to 14 months after your last activity; aggregated reports without a time limit |
| Crash reports | 90 days |
| Firebase installation ID | until deleted, then up to 180 days |
| Push notification token | until you turn notifications off or uninstall the Game |
| Advertising data | according to Google's policies |
| Support messages | up to 24 months after the request is closed, unless needed for a dispute or legal obligation |
9. Deleting your account
You can delete your account:
- in the Game: Profile → Account section → delete button → Delete;
- without the Game: on our account deletion page, https://forms.gle/EsxhxdKXR5FNNerYA, or by emailing [email protected] with your Player ID. We complete such requests within 30 days.
Deletion is immediate in the Game and removes your account, the link to Google Play Games, your nickname reservation, your all-time, current-week and last-week leaderboard entries, your cloud copy and all progress on your device.
Some data remains after deletion:
- purchase records remain under your former Player ID, which is no longer linked to any account; real-money records include the Google Play order number;
- analytics and crash reports remain until their retention periods end (see Section 8);
- older weekly leaderboard entries remain, with steps and time only;
- settings and the push token on your device remain until you uninstall the Game or turn notifications off.
Deletion does not refund purchases. Permanent purchases are linked to your Google account, and Google Play may restore them if you sign in again. Deletion does not delete data held independently by Google; for that, see your Google account settings.
If you played as a guest and have already uninstalled the Game, your Player ID cannot be recovered. After a reinstall the Game creates a new account, and the old account's data on our servers is no longer linked to you.
10. International transfers
Our database is located in Singapore. Google may process data in the United States and other countries where it operates. For transfers from the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, we rely on adequacy decisions where they apply, including the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where Google is certified for the relevant service, or on Standard Contractual Clauses.
11. Security
We use measures appropriate to the risk: encryption in transit, access rules on our database, pseudonymous identifiers and limited access for our team. No system is perfectly secure. If a security incident creates a legally reportable risk, we will notify the relevant authority and affected people where the law requires.
12. Children
The Game is intended for players aged 18 and over and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has used the Game, contact us at [email protected] and we will delete the account.
13. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- access your personal data and receive a copy;
- correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
- delete your personal data or your account;
- restrict or object to processing, including processing based on legitimate interests;
- receive your data in a portable format;
- withdraw consent at any time without affecting earlier processing;
- complain to your data protection authority.
To make a request, email [email protected] with your Player ID. We respond within one month, or within the period the applicable law sets.
India (Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023).

United States. We do not sell personal data. Ads provided by Google may count as "sharing" for targeted advertising under some state laws. Where the consent form offers it, you can opt out in Settings → Privacy Settings, or by emailing [email protected].
14. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy. We will post the new version on our website and in the Game and change the "Last updated" date. For material changes, we will notify you in the Game before they take effect. Where a change requires new consent, we will ask for it first.
