Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Our app does not collect any personal information that can be used to identify you, such as your name, email address, or device identifiers. We do not require users to create an account, and we do not save any user-generated data.

Information Collected Automatically

• Face Data: For the core gameplay feature, we use the MediaPipe Face Landmarker library to process real-time facial landmark data and blendshape scores from your device's camera. This data includes a series of 3D coordinates representing facial features and coefficients indicating facial expressions (e.g., smiling, frowning). This processing is performed entirely on-device.
• Usage Data: We use Firebase for analytics to help us understand general usage patterns, such as the number of games played and app sessions. This data is collected in an aggregated and anonymized format and does not include any personal information that can identify you.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the limited, anonymized data we collect for the following purposes:

• Facilitate Gameplay: We use the on-device facial landmark and blendshape data to detect when a user is laughing to determine the outcome of the "try not to laugh" challenge. This is used for both single-player and local multi-player modes.
• Improve the Service: Anonymized usage data helps us understand how the app is used, allowing us to improve the app's performance and design.

3. Information Sharing and Third Parties

We do not share any personal information with third parties because we do not collect any. Any data sent to third parties is for the sole purpose of app functionality and is anonymized or aggregated.

• Third-Party Libraries: We use Google's MediaPipe library for on-device face detection. The facial data processed by MediaPipe is not shared with Google or any other third parties.
• YouTube Integration: The app loads video content from YouTube. Your device will make a direct network request to YouTube's servers to load video categories and specific video URLs. This process is governed by YouTube's own Terms of Service, API Services Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
• Analytics: We use Firebase to collect anonymized usage data, which is used solely for the purpose of improving our app. This data cannot be linked back to individual users.

4. Data Retention

5. Data Security

We do not collect personal information, so there is no personal data to secure. Anonymized usage data is handled in accordance with industry best practices to ensure it cannot be linked to any individual.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Since we do not collect or store any personal information, there is no account or personal data for you to access, update, or delete.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13.

8. International Users

Anonymized usage data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States. Network requests to YouTube's servers may also be processed outside of your country of residence.

9. Changes to Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy on our website and updating the "Last updated" date.
