fcount labs ("we", "us", "our") is an independent mobile app and game studio. We build apps and games for iOS, iPadOS, and Android. This Privacy Policy describes our practices across all products published by fcount labs.
Data generated by your use of our apps — settings, preferences, conversion history, game progress, and records of purchases you've made (such as "ads removed") — is stored exclusively on your device using Apple's or Google's standard on-device storage. It never leaves your device through our systems, and you can delete it at any time by uninstalling the app. The exceptions are the account data described in Section 3 and Quiz Showdown's game records described in Section 4.
Most of our apps require no account at all. Where an app offers one (for example, GitaDaily), we collect only what is needed to operate it — such as the identifier provided by Sign in with Apple — and nothing else. Quiz Showdown needs more than that to run a multiplayer game; Section 4 lists all of it. You can delete your account and its data from within the app at any time, or email us and we'll do it for you — see Deleting your account.
Quiz Showdown is a trivia game with a daily quiz, leaderboards and live one-on-one duels. Those only work if the game is kept on our servers, so unlike our other apps it stores the following there.
What it collects
Quiz Showdown itself does not collect your location, contacts, photos or device hardware identifiers, and it has no analytics or crash-reporting services. It does show ads: a full-screen ad before every fifth quiz, served by Google AdMob, which collects data of its own to do so — see Section 5. Which quiz you are on is counted on your phone, not on our servers.
How it is used and who sees it
Keeping and deleting it. Everything is kept until you delete your account — in the app under You → Delete account, or by emailing us (see Deleting your account). Deleting removes your account and your play history straight away. A few things stay, without your name on them: another player's record of a duel you played against them, questions you wrote that are already in the game, and the anonymous per-question counts.
Age. Quiz Showdown is for players aged 13 and over.
Some of our free apps display ads served by Google AdMob, a third-party advertising service operated by Google:
To serve ads, measure their performance, and prevent fraud, Google may collect and process:
Our iOS apps do not show Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt and do not request access to the advertising identifier (IDFA), so ads are not based on cross-app tracking of your identity.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, Quiz Showdown asks for your consent through Google's consent form before any ads are requested, and personalised ads are only shown if you agree. You can change your choice by reinstalling the app.
Google's handling of this data is governed by its own policies: see the Google Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
All purchases are processed entirely by Apple's App Store or Google Play. We never receive or store your payment details — Apple or Google confirms the transaction to the app, and the resulting entitlement is stored on your device. Purchases can be restored on a new device through the store's standard restore mechanism inside the app.
Some features fetch small amounts of public data from our servers — for example, ConvertIt downloads daily currency exchange rates from fcountlabs.com. These are ordinary web requests: our server sees your IP address in transient standard server logs, sets no cookies, and does not link requests to any identity or profile.
We do not integrate third-party analytics SDKs (such as Firebase Analytics, Mixpanel, or Amplitude), tracking pixels, or data-broker services. Outside Quiz Showdown's game records (Section 4), we genuinely do not know how you use our apps.
Where apps use Apple's App Store infrastructure (In-App Purchases, Game Center, etc.), Apple's own Privacy Policy governs those interactions. We have no access to information Apple collects for those services.
fcount labs does not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise transfer user data to third parties. The only third party that processes data in our apps is Google, strictly for the ad serving described in Section 5 — and only in apps that show ads, and only until you remove them. (When you sign in with Google or Apple, that provider confirms your identity to us; it is not given any of your data.)
Our apps are designed for a general audience and are not directed at children. Apps that display advertising serve it through Google AdMob, a Google-certified ad network that provides its own policy controls for ad content. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children; if you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
We minimize risk by minimizing collection. For apps without accounts, your data lives only on your device. Account data (Section 3) and Quiz Showdown's game records (Section 4) are kept on servers we run, reached only over HTTPS, and kept until you delete your account. Transient server logs (Section 8) are routinely rotated and discarded.
If we materially change this policy, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide notice within our apps. Continued use of our apps after such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
Questions about this policy? We'd love to hear from you.
