Gutsy Privacy Policy
Effective date:
This policy applies only to the Gutsy mobile app and explains, in plain language, what data is processed when you use it. The iceberg-labs.com website has its own privacy policy.
Summary
- Gutsy has no accounts, sign-ups or log-ins; we do not collect personal data ourselves.
- Player names, the cards you write and your settings are stored only on your device.
- In the free version, ads are served by Google AdMob. Personalised ads are used only if you allow it. Any purchase removes the ads.
- Purchases are handled by Apple; we never see your payment details.
1. Data controller
The data controller under the Turkish Personal Data Protection Law (KVKK) and the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is ICEBERG LABS BİLİŞİM TEKNOLOJİ MEDYA VE DIŞ TİCARET A.Ş., S.S. Bakır ve Pirinç Sanayicileri Sitesi, Menekşe Caddesi No: 10/4, Beylikdüzü, Istanbul, Türkiye. Contact: ayberk@iceberg-labs.com
2. Data that stays on your device
The player names you enter, your own sets and cards, game rules, which cards have already been shown (to avoid repeats) and your 18+ confirmation are stored only in the app’s storage on your device. Gutsy has no server holding user data and we have no access to it. Deleting the app deletes this data.
3. Sharing a set
When you share a set, its name and cards are compressed into the part of the link after the #. Browsers never send that part to the server: the iceberg-labs.com/gutsy/s/ page does not see or store your cards, it only hands the link to the Gutsy app. You decide who gets the link; anyone who has it can add the set. The IP address and browser details of the device opening the page may be kept briefly in standard server logs, as described in the website’s privacy policy.
4. Ads (Google AdMob)
The free version shows a banner in menus, an interstitial between rounds and an optional rewarded ad (“watch an ad to try it this game”), using Google’s Google Mobile Ads SDK. To show and measure ads and prevent fraud, Google may process data such as device information (model, OS, language), IP address, ad interactions and diagnostics.
- Tracking permission (ATT): iOS asks whether apps may track you. If you allow it, Google may use your device’s advertising identifier (IDFA) for personalised ads. If you don’t, the identifier is not shared and less personalised ads are shown. You can change this any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- EU, EEA, UK and Switzerland: we ask for ad consent with Google’s consent management tool (UMP). You can change your choice in Settings → “Ad privacy options”.
- How Google uses data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and the Google Privacy Policy.
- Buying any pack turns off banner and interstitial ads.
5. Purchases (Apple)
Packs are bought through the Apple App Store. Your payment details stay with Apple and are not passed to us. The app checks which packs are unlocked on device using Apple’s StoreKit.
6. Sharing a result
The picture made by “Share the result” (player names and points) is created on your device and shared only to the app you choose.
7. Children’s privacy
Gutsy is not directed at children. The 18+ packs are for adults only and ask for age confirmation. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
8. Your rights (KVKK and GDPR)
You have the right to access your data, ask for it to be corrected or deleted and object to processing. Because we hold no data about you, you can delete the app’s data directly on your device; for ad data, use Google’s tools and the consent settings above. Questions: ayberk@iceberg-labs.com.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is always published on this page with an updated effective date.
