Catchimals Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 15, 2026

Catchimals lets players photograph animals, develop film, save collections, use public profile and gallery features, watch rewarded ads, and buy optional in-app items.

Information We Collect

We may collect account information such as user ID, email address, display name, sign-in provider, profile text, and avatar choices. We collect gameplay data such as catches, scores, badges, film roll state, purchases, settings, likes, comments, and public gallery activity.

When you use camera and collection features, Catchimals processes photos you take and may upload selected gameplay photos to Firebase Storage. Photos you choose to capture may be analyzed by cloud AI providers, including OpenAI and Google/Firebase or Vertex AI, to identify animals, score catches, review capture quality, and support generated game art. When location features are enabled, Catchimals uses device location to score captures, show nearby discoveries, and place catches on maps.

We collect device and diagnostic data such as push notification tokens, installation IDs, app errors, device state needed for ads or notifications, and basic app interaction data needed to operate and protect the service.

Ads And Purchases

Catchimals uses Google AdMob for rewarded ads and store providers for in-app purchases. These providers may process identifiers, purchase history, diagnostics, and ad-related data under their own policies. Where required, Catchimals asks for consent before requesting ads.

How We Use Information

We use information to provide gameplay, sync progress across devices, prevent abuse, process purchases, send notifications, operate public gallery/social features, improve reliability, and respond to support or deletion requests.

Sharing

Public profile, gallery, leaderboard, comments, and catch information you choose to publish can be visible to other signed-in players. We use Firebase, Google, OpenAI, Apple, and payment/ad providers to operate the app. We do not sell personal information.

Your Choices

You can control camera, location, photos, and notification permissions in device settings. In Catchimals, you can manage audio, gallery comments, blocked players, ad privacy choices where available, and request account deletion from the Options screen.
