Privacy Policy
ParcelHero City Dash (in.rjappstudio.parcelherocitydash) is published by RJ App Studio.
What the app does
This app is an endless runner game in which the player controls a parcel courier running through a city, dodging obstacles and traffic and delivering parcels. It does not require creating an account with RJ App Studio or giving any personal information to play, and the game itself can be played offline. Loading ads, the world ranking and the analytics described below need an internet connection.
Advertising
The app uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK (AdMob) to show rewarded video ads only — never banner or interstitial ads. A rewarded ad is shown only when the player chooses to watch one, by pressing the clearly labelled “Second Chance” button after a run ends in order to continue that run. No ad is ever shown without the player opting in.
Google and its partners may process device and network information (such as the advertising identifier, IP address, approximate location derived from that IP address, and general device characteristics) in order to deliver ads, prevent fraud, measure ad performance and maintain the ads service. This approximate location is coarse (roughly city level), is used only to serve and measure ads, and is not precise or GPS location. Depending on the player's region and their device settings, these ads may be personalised.
Players can limit ad personalisation at any time using the advertising settings on their own device (on Android: Settings › Privacy › Ads).
World ranking (Google Play Games)
The app uses Google Play Games Services for its world ranking. When the app starts, Google Play Games may sign the player in automatically with the Play Games profile already on their device; the player does not type anything, and the game can be played without it. When signed in, the app sends the player's best score to the game's Play Games leaderboard, and the leaderboard shows the player's Play Games name and score to other players. This is handled by Google under the Google Privacy Policy. Players control their profile's visibility, and can sign out of Play Games, in the Google Play Games settings on their device.
Analytics and crash reports (Google Firebase)
The app uses Google Analytics for Firebase and Firebase Crashlytics to understand how the game is played and to find and fix crashes. They collect:
- App activity — for example runs started and ended, distance, score, coins, parcels delivered, which screens were opened, and whether a Second Chance ad was offered and taken.
- App information and performance — crash logs and diagnostics such as app version, device model, operating system version, language and country.
- Device or other identifiers — a Firebase installation identifier and, where the device allows it, the advertising identifier. The advertising identifier also lets ad revenue from the Google Mobile Ads SDK be measured in these reports.
This data is sent to Google, which processes it for RJ App Studio as a service provider, encrypted in transit. RJ App Studio uses it only to improve the game and its stability, and does not sell it. It does not include the player's name, email address, contacts or photos. See Privacy and security in Firebase.
In-app purchases
This app does not offer any in-app purchases or subscriptions. Coins collected in the game are an in-game score only; they have no real-world value, cannot be bought, and cannot be exchanged for anything outside the game.
On-device preferences
The app stores a small save file locally on the device, in the app's own private storage. It holds the player's chosen display name and avatar, best score, best distance, total runs, total coins, parcels delivered, rank, the last ten runs, which in-game items have been met, and sound and music settings. This file itself stays on the device and is deleted when the app is uninstalled; only the best score is sent anywhere, to the Play Games leaderboard described above.
The display name is optional, is chosen by the player, and is shown only inside the app. It is never sent to RJ App Studio or to anyone else. The world ranking shows the player's Play Games name, not this one.
External links
The app does not open external links or web pages during gameplay, other than the ad content served by the Google Mobile Ads SDK when the player chooses to watch a rewarded ad.
What the app does not do
- No account registration with RJ App Studio (the only sign-in is Google Play Games, described above)
- No user-generated content or uploads
- No collection of names, email addresses, photos, contacts, precise location, or other personal information by RJ App Studio
- No biometric data collection
- No in-app purchases of any kind
- No selling of data, and no sharing of data beyond the Google services described above
Children's privacy
This app is not directed at children under 13 and is not part of the Google Play Families programme. Its target audience is players aged 13 and over. RJ App Studio does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this app, please contact us at the address below and we will delete it.

If this policy changes, the revised version will be published on this page with a new “last updated” date.
