Privacy policy

Who is responsible
This is a translation. In case of any discrepancy, the French version at https://appcraft31.app/privacy/ding.html is the reference text.
Ding! is published by AppCraft31, an independent studio based in Toulouse, France. For any question about this policy, write to appcraft31@gmail.com.
This policy describes what the app actually does with data, on iOS.
What stays on your device
Ding! stores the following in your device's own storage. None of it is sent to any server, and all of it disappears if you uninstall the app.
Ding! is free thanks to advertising, and no in-app purchase removes it. The interstitial only appears after a successful career mission, when you continue or go back home — never during play, never on the daily challenge or free practice — at most once every three wins and every five minutes. For some players it is replaced by a rewarded video, preceded by a screen that lets you choose to watch it or carry on. The rewarded video on the results screen (+25 credits) only starts if you tap its button yourself.
The advertising consent form (UMP) and then, on iPhone, the tracking request (ATT) are shown at launch. Declining never blocks the game: ads are still shown, without personalisation.
- career progress (missions completed, badges, credits)
- gear, prototypes, stamps and car finishes
- the mission in progress, so it can be resumed after an interruption
- daily challenge medals and free practice best score
- settings (sound, music, vibration, assists, animations, text size)
Advertising
Ding! is free and includes the Google AdMob SDK, in the following formats: interstitial and rewarded video. Google AdMob is provided by Google Ireland Limited for users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, and by Google LLC elsewhere.
In that context, Google may process the device advertising identifier, app-related identifiers and ad interaction data (impressions, clicks).
On iOS, the system asks at first launch whether you allow tracking of your activity. If you decline, no advertising identifier (IDFA) is shared and ads are not personalised.
In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, a GDPR-compliant consent screen is shown through the Google User Messaging Platform. You can accept, decline or customise the use of your data for advertising.
You can change that choice from the app settings.
In-app purchases
Ding! offers no in-app purchases.
Analytics
Ding! sends Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, to measure progress in the game (missions started and finished, buildings completed, number of missions completed, screens viewed) and receive crash reports to fix errors. In the European Economic Area, analytics are only enabled with your agreement in the consent form, which the “Ad privacy” button in the Settings lets you change. These statistics are never used for advertising.
This data cannot be used to identify you.
Network connection
The app uses your connection for loading advertising and its consent form, then sending usage statistics and crash reports to Firebase. Missions, the daily challenge and free practice are played offline.
Accounts
Ding! never asks you to create an account and uses no sign-in service.
Children
Ding! is not specifically aimed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data about them.
The ads served are configured to respect family content categories.
Your rights
Since the data described above stays on your device, the most direct way to erase it is to uninstall the app: everything goes with it.
The General Data Protection Regulation further grants you rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction and objection. To exercise them, write to appcraft31@gmail.com.
For data processed by the ad networks, those rights are exercised with each of them: Google. Your advertising choices also remain changeable at any time from the app settings and your device settings.
Changes
This policy may change alongside the app. Any change is published on this page, with its date. Last updated: September 11, 2026.
