Command of Europe - Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 9, 2026
SHN Games built Command of Europe as a free mobile app. This policy explains how information is collected, used, and disclosed when you use the game.
1. Information Collection and Use
For a better experience, the game may request certain information. That information is retained on your device and is not collected directly by SHN Games.
The app uses third-party services that may collect information used to identify you:
- Google Play Services
- Google AdMob
- Firebase Analytics
- Firebase Crashlytics
2. Data Collected by Third-Party Services
Google AdMob
Google AdMob is used to show interstitial and rewarded ads. AdMob may collect:
- Approximate location derived from your IP address
- Device identifiers, including Android Advertising ID and Apple IDFA when authorized
- Ad interaction data such as impressions, clicks, and conversions
- Diagnostic data such as SDK performance and error rates
This data is processed by Google to deliver and measure ads.
Firebase Analytics
Firebase Analytics is used to understand how players interact with the game. Firebase Analytics may collect:
- App Instance ID
- Session data such as screen views, session duration, and feature usage
- Device information such as model, operating system, app version, and language
- Country or region derived from IP address
- App events such as game starts, settings changes, and feature usage
- User properties such as preferred difficulty and game statistics
SHN Games does not collect your name, email address, or personal contact information through Firebase Analytics, and does not link analytics data to a personal identity.
Firebase Crashlytics
Firebase Crashlytics is used to collect crash reports and improve stability. Crashlytics may collect:
- Crashlytics Installation UUID
- Stack traces and exception messages
- Device model, operating system version, RAM, and disk state
- App foreground and background state
- Diagnostic breadcrumbs such as the last viewed screen before a crash
Crash data is not linked to your identity. Crashlytics data is retained by Firebase for 90 days.
3. In-App Purchases
Command of Europe offers optional in-app purchases. Payment processing is handled entirely by the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. SHN Games does not collect, store, or access your payment card or bank information.
4. Local Data Storage
The app stores preferences and game progress locally on your device. This includes settings such as sound volume, graphics preferences, tutorial completion state, and progression data. That local data is not transmitted to SHN Games.
5. Advertising and Consent
Ad Personalization
The game displays ads through Google AdMob. In regions where consent is required, Google User Messaging Platform is used to present a consent dialog before personalized ads are served. If you decline, you may still see ads, but they will not be personalized.
App Tracking Transparency on iOS
On iOS, the game requests permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework before accessing IDFA. If you deny permission, the IDFA is not accessed and ads are not personalized using cross-app tracking data.
Ad Content
The ad configuration is set to filter content for a general audience. Mature, gambling, and otherwise inappropriate ad categories are not intended to be served.
Removing Ads
The app offers an in-app purchase that removes interstitial ads. Rewarded ads that you choose to watch voluntarily may still remain available.
6. Log Data
When an error occurs in the app, third-party tools may collect log data on your device. This can include your IP address, device name, operating system version, app configuration, time and date of use, and related diagnostic statistics.
7. Cookies
The app does not use cookies directly. However, third-party code and libraries may use similar technologies to collect information and improve their services.
8. Service Providers
SHN Games may use third-party companies and individuals:
- To facilitate the service
- To provide the service on our behalf
- To perform service-related work
- To help analyze how the service is used
Those third parties may have access to personal information only as needed to perform their assigned work.
9. Security
SHN Games uses commercially reasonable measures to protect information. Data transmitted between the app and third-party services is encrypted using TLS. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
10. Links to Other Sites
The app may contain links to third-party websites. SHN Games is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those external services.
11. Children's Privacy
This service is not directed to children under 13. The app is not part of Google's Designed for Families program and is not listed as Made for Kids on the Apple App Store. If SHN Games discovers that a child under 13 has provided personal information, that information will be deleted.
