MANTIS

MANTIS — Privacy Policy
Updated: 15 October 2026
Application: com.vertalix.mantis

Who is responsible?
VERTALIX S.A.S., Uruguay. Avenida Luis Alberto de Herrera 1248 (WTC), Tower II, Office 1416, 11300 Montevideo. For privacy requests or support, email support@vertalix.com and mention MANTIS. Do not send passwords or banking details.

Your game and downloaded content
Progress, settings, results and replay history, including times, hints, errors and attempts, are stored on your device. No account is required. Progress is not currently synchronised across devices. Evolution charts describe gameplay performance; they are not clinical assessments of memory or health.

Optional platform sign-in
Optional Game Center (iOS) or Google Play Games (Android) sign-in uses your existing Apple or Google gaming profile. The platform processes authentication under its privacy policy. MANTIS reads the sign-in status, does not send your gaming profile to Vertalix analytics, and does not use it to synchronise progress. You can play without signing in.

The app downloads levels and illustrations from our servers. These requests transmit your IP address and technical request information needed to deliver content and protect the service. We do not request camera, microphone, contacts or precise location access.

Optional gameplay statistics
Gameplay statistics are initially disabled. You can enable or disable them in Settings → Privacy. The choice covers Vertalix statistics and Google Analytics for Firebase. Declining does not prevent play.

If enabled, Vertalix receives sessions, game starts and results, duration and hints, with level, platform, app version, date and random installation and event identifiers. Firebase also receives actions such as correct and incorrect answers and hints, with level, attempts and play time. We do not send touch coordinates as analytics. These data are pseudonymous, not fully anonymous.

Google may process app-instance identifiers, device and operating-system information, language, usage and approximate location inferred from the connection. We do not send your name or email in these events or set an account User-ID. Analytics consent for advertising personalisation remains disabled. Google and Vertalix reports are consulted separately in our private dashboard.

Disabling statistics stops new gameplay analytics, clears the local collector queue and identifier and requests a local Analytics reset when initialised. It does not automatically delete data already sent. The local queue holds up to 512 events for a maximum of six days.

Optional crash reports
Crash reports control Firebase Crashlytics independently of statistics and are initially disabled. If enabled, technical crash information, stack traces, installation identifiers and app, device and system details may be sent, including previously saved reports. Restart MANTIS after disabling this setting to apply the change completely. Previously sent reports are not automatically deleted.

Advertisements and rewards
Compatible versions may display automatic interstitial advertisements when moving to a new level or replaying an earlier level, before gameplay begins. Server configuration controls frequency, session and daily limits, minimum intervals and a break after voluntary videos. If an advertisement is unavailable, gameplay continues.

Google AdMob is the primary advertising platform, with Unity Ads and Liftoff Monetize as advertising networks. Videos for hints or extra time are voluntary. Rewards are granted when the SDK confirms completion. Test builds use test advertising. Store versions use the advertising configuration applicable to their release.

Providers may process IP addresses, approximate location, technical or advertising identifiers where available and permitted, device characteristics, advertisement interactions, performance and diagnostic information to deliver and measure advertising, prevent fraud and, with appropriate permission, personalise it. Non-personalised advertising may still involve technical data processing.

Where required, Google UMP presents consent options before advertising requests. You can revisit available choices in Settings → Privacy → Advertising options. You can reject or withdraw consent; playing does not require consent to personalised advertising. Video rewards require an available, completed advertisement. Gameplay analytics consent is separate.

The current iOS integration does not request ATT tracking authorisation or access the IDFA through that permission. MANTIS is intended for a general/adult audience, not primarily for children. We do not ask for a birth date. Contact us if you believe a child's data needs review.

Optional reminders
With your permission, MANTIS schedules local replay reminders at 48 hours and 6, 13 and 19 days after a completed level. Multiple pending levels are grouped to avoid sending a series of notifications. Replaying and completing a level updates its schedule. These reminders use locally stored progress and device notification services; they do not require a remote push token. You can disable reminders in the game or system settings.

Providers and international transfers
Our hosting provider processes connections and information necessary to operate the service. Google provides Analytics, Crashlytics, AdMob and UMP; Unity Ads and Liftoff Monetize provide advertising services. Providers may process data outside your country, including in the United States, under their terms and applicable transfer mechanisms.

Purposes and legal bases
Necessary information is processed to provide the game, download levels and respond to support requests. Optional analytics and crash reporting rely on your consent. Technical logs support operation, security and abuse prevention, based on legitimate interests where applicable. Advertising uses consent when required and the choices presented by the provider. We do not directly sell your personal data.

Retention
Progress remains on your device while you retain the installation or its backups. Uninstalling may delete it; we do not hold a recoverable copy of your game. Privacy preferences may remain in device backups.

The backend cleans detailed events and technical logs according to its configuration and retains aggregate reports for gameplay comparisons. Daily activity data older than 180 days is removed; inactive player identifiers are removed when no associated activity remains under that cleanup. Backups have their own retention cycle. Google and advertising networks apply their service retention policies and controls. You can request information or deletion of data relating to you.

Support emails and their contents are retained as needed to resolve requests and meet applicable obligations.

Your rights
Where applicable, you may request access, correction, deletion, objection, restriction or portability, or withdraw consent, by emailing support@vertalix.com. We request only information needed to verify and handle your request. Random identifiers may limit our ability to locate gameplay data using an email because we do not link gameplay analytics to your platform gaming account.

You may complain to a competent data-protection authority, including Uruguay's Unidad Reguladora y de Control de Datos Personales and, where applicable, the authority in your country of residence. Withdrawing permission or uninstalling does not automatically erase data already processed by providers.

Changes
There are currently no in-app purchases. We will update this information before introducing materially different processing and request permissions where required.
