1. Who we are and what this covers
This Privacy Policy is issued by Zentrovaapps (SMC-Private) Limited ("Zentrovaapps", "we", "us" or "our"), a Single Member Private Limited company incorporated under the Companies Act, 2017 of Pakistan and registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan under Incorporation Number 0344416.
This Privacy Policy applies generally to mobile applications, games, puzzle games, utility applications, entertainment applications, remote-control applications and other digital products that we publish or distribute through Google Play and other supported app stores (collectively, the "Apps").
Our Apps may include current products as well as future applications and games. The features, permissions, data practices and third-party services used by an individual App may differ depending on its functionality.
Because different Apps may provide different features, not every section of this Privacy Policy applies to every App.
Where an individual App collects, accesses, stores or shares information in a way that is different from the general practices described in this Privacy Policy, the applicable information may also be disclosed within that App, its store listing, its Google Play Data Safety section, consent notices, or another appropriate notice.
You should review the information and permissions presented by the specific App you are using.
2. Privacy at a glance
Our Apps are designed to process only the information reasonably necessary to provide their features, maintain functionality, support users, process purchases, display advertising where applicable, protect our services and comply with applicable laws.
Some Apps may operate primarily on your device and may not require you to create an account or directly provide personal information.
Depending on the specific App and the features you use, information may be processed:
- locally on your device;
- by Zentrovaapps when you voluntarily contact us or use a feature that requires our services;
- by Google Play when you download an App or make an in-app purchase;
- by Google AdMob and applicable advertising partners when an App displays advertisements; or
- by other third-party services specifically used by an individual App.
3. Information we generally do not collect directly
Zentrovaapps does not generally require users to create an account or provide personal information simply to use an App.
Depending on the App, we generally do not directly collect or request:
- Your name, email address, postal address, phone number or date of birth unless you voluntarily provide such information, for example when contacting support.
- User accounts, passwords or authentication credentials unless a particular App explicitly provides account functionality.
- Precise geographic location from GPS or location services unless an individual App specifically requires such functionality and discloses it.
- Your contacts, calendar, call logs or SMS messages unless a specific App feature requires access and clearly discloses that requirement.
- Health, financial, biometric or other sensitive personal information unless explicitly required for a particular feature and disclosed separately.
We do not sell personal information to data brokers.
However, third-party services integrated into an App, such as advertising services, may independently process technical or advertising-related information as described in this Privacy Policy and their own privacy policies.
4. Information collected automatically
Some of our Apps are supported by advertising and may use Google AdMob or other applicable advertising technologies.
When advertisements are requested or displayed, Google AdMob and its applicable service providers may process certain technical and advertising-related information according to Google's services, configuration and applicable laws.
| Information | Potential provider | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Advertising identifier and related advertising signals | Google AdMob | Advertising, ad measurement, frequency management and fraud prevention, where applicable |
| IP address and information derived from it | Google AdMob | Delivering and measuring advertising, security and fraud prevention |
| Device model, operating-system version, language, screen information and network-related information | Google AdMob | Delivering advertisements correctly and measuring advertising performance |
| Advertising interaction information, such as impressions and clicks | Google AdMob | Advertising measurement, reporting and fraud prevention |
| Purchase-related information such as product identifiers, purchase tokens and subscription status | Google Play Billing | Verifying purchases, restoring entitlements and managing subscriptions |
The exact information processed depends on the App, the third-party SDKs integrated into it, your device settings, your location and applicable privacy or consent choices.
Zentrovaapps does not intentionally request unnecessary personal information through its Apps.
5. Games and gameplay information
Some Zentrovaapps Apps are games or puzzle applications, including puzzle and casual games.
Depending on the particular game, the App may store gameplay-related information on your device, such as:
- Game progress;
- Completed puzzles, levels or challenges;
- Scores and statistics;
- Difficulty preferences;
- Game settings and preferences;
- Saved game information; and
- Other information necessary to provide the game's features.
Where gameplay information is stored locally on your device, it is not automatically transmitted to Zentrovaapps merely because it is stored by the App.
Some future or current games may provide online features such as leaderboards, achievements, cloud synchronization, multiplayer functionality or other connected features. If an App provides such a feature, information necessary to provide that feature may be processed by Zentrovaapps or the applicable third-party service.
Not every game uses online gameplay, cloud synchronization, leaderboards or game-service functionality.
6. Local device and network data
Certain Zentrovaapps Apps, particularly remote-control applications, may communicate with compatible televisions, streaming devices or other hardware on the same local network as your device.
Depending on the App, information processed locally may include:
- Local network information;
- The IP address, name, model or identifier of a compatible device that you choose to connect to;
- Pairing information, access keys or session information required to maintain a connection; and
- Your saved devices and in-app preferences.
Remote-control functionality:
Where an App communicates directly with a compatible device on your local network, commands may travel directly between your phone and the selected device. We do not automatically receive those commands merely because the App is being used.
The exact network permissions and connection methods depend on the particular remote-control App.
This section does not mean that every Zentrovaapps App accesses local network information. Game and utility applications may not require these capabilities.
7. Permissions and why they are used
Android permissions requested by our Apps depend on the functionality of the particular App. We aim to request only permissions reasonably necessary for the applicable features.
Examples of permissions that may be used by particular Apps include:
| Permission or capability | Possible purpose |
|---|---|
| INTERNET | Connecting to online services, communicating with supported devices and loading advertisements where applicable. |
| ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE / ACCESS_WIFI_STATE | Detecting network connectivity and supporting local-network functionality where required. |
| NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICES | Discovering or communicating with nearby devices on the local network in Apps that provide this functionality. |
| BLUETOOTH / BLUETOOTH_CONNECT | Connecting to supported Bluetooth devices in Apps that provide Bluetooth functionality. |
| CAMERA | Scanning QR codes, barcodes or other visual information in Apps that provide scanning functionality. |
| RECORD_AUDIO | Voice-related functionality in Apps that explicitly provide voice features. |
| VIBRATE | Providing haptic feedback. |
| POST_NOTIFICATIONS | Providing notifications where an App offers notification functionality. |
| com.android.vending.BILLING | Processing in-app purchases and subscriptions through Google Play. |
Not every App requests every permission listed above. You can review the permissions requested by a particular App through its Google Play listing and your Android device settings.
Where Android provides a runtime permission control, you may revoke the permission through your device settings. Revoking a permission may disable the feature that depends on it.
8. Third-party services
Depending on the App, we may integrate third-party services to provide advertising, payments, distribution, gameplay features, diagnostics, security or other functionality.
| Service | Provider | Possible role | Privacy policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google AdMob | Google LLC / applicable Google entity | Serving and measuring in-app advertisements | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google Play Billing | Google LLC / applicable Google entity | Processing in-app purchases and subscriptions | Google Privacy Policy |
| Google Play Services | Google LLC / applicable Google entity | Supporting Android application distribution and applicable Google Play functionality | Google Privacy Policy |
A particular App may use additional third-party services that are not used by other Zentrovaapps Apps.
Where additional third-party services materially affect the App's data practices, the applicable disclosures may be provided through the App, its store listing, its Data Safety declaration or an updated version of this Privacy Policy.
Additional information about how Google uses data from apps that use its services is available at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use Google services .
9. Advertising and your ad choices
Some Zentrovaapps Apps are supported by advertising and may display advertisements supplied by Google AdMob.
Depending on the App and its configuration, advertisements may include banner, interstitial, native, rewarded or other supported advertising formats.
Depending on your location, consent choices, device settings and applicable law, advertisements may be personalised or non-personalised.
Consent in the EEA, UK and Switzerland
Where applicable, our Apps use appropriate consent mechanisms for advertising-related processing required by applicable law and Google policies.
Depending on the App's implementation, users may be presented with a consent or privacy message that allows them to make choices about personalised advertising and certain advertising-related processing.
Where applicable, users may be able to change or withdraw their advertising privacy choices through the privacy controls provided by the App or the applicable Google privacy tools.
Controlling your advertising ID
Android provides controls that may allow you to reset or delete your advertising ID. The exact location of these settings can vary depending on your Android version and device manufacturer.
You can also review Google's advertising settings at:
Removing advertisements
Some Zentrovaapps Apps may offer an optional paid feature or subscription that removes advertisements.
Whether an individual App provides an ad-removal purchase, subscription or another advertising option will be stated in that App's purchase screen and store listing.
An ad-removal purchase is not available in every App.
10. In-app purchases and subscriptions
Some Zentrovaapps Apps offer optional in-app purchases, subscriptions, premium features, additional game content, ad removal or other paid functionality.
Purchases made through Android Apps are processed through Google Play Billing.
- Zentrovaapps does not receive or store your complete payment card number or banking credentials through the App.
- Google Play may provide the App with purchase-related information necessary to verify the transaction and unlock the purchased functionality.
- Depending on the implementation, this may include information such as a product identifier, purchase token and purchase or subscription status.
- The exact purchase options and subscription plans vary between Apps.
Additional information about subscriptions, renewals, cancellations, purchases and refunds is provided in our Subscription Policy .

15. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.
Information stored locally by an App is generally maintained within the App's available private storage mechanisms provided by the operating system.
Where supported and appropriate, communication with third-party services uses secure transport mechanisms such as HTTPS/TLS.
No method of electronic transmission or storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device, operating-system account and network.
16. Children's privacy
Our Apps are generally designed for a general audience unless a particular App is specifically identified as being directed toward children or participating in a children or family-focused program.
The intended audience, content rating and applicable child-safety requirements may differ between Apps.
We do not knowingly request children to provide personal information where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.
Where an App is directed toward children or includes children within its target audience, we will apply the requirements applicable to that App, including applicable Google Play Families requirements and advertising restrictions.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us in circumstances where it should not have been collected, please contact us at info@zentrovaapps.com .

Zentrovaapps is established in Pakistan.
Depending on the services used by a particular App, information may be processed or stored in countries other than the country in which you live.
Third-party service providers, including Google and other technology providers, may process information internationally according to their applicable privacy policies, contractual arrangements and legal requirements.
Where applicable data-protection laws require safeguards for international transfers, we and our applicable service providers seek to use legally recognized transfer mechanisms.
