Life Map

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-04

Life Map - Plan Where to Live (the "App") is a financial education life simulator developed by Fuji Bit Inc. ("we"). This privacy policy describes how we handle user data.

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect any of the following on our own servers:

However, some information is processed through third-party services: Pangle for ad delivery (see "6. Advertising"), and Google Firebase for learning-content delivery and anonymous authentication (see "7. Server Integration (Firebase)"). The latter generates an anonymous identifier without any name or email; it is not used to collect personally identifying information.

A full list of information collected or sent externally (recipients, purposes, retention, opt-out) is available on Personal Data Handling.

2. App Tracking Transparency (ATT)

The App may serve personalized ads via the Pangle ad network, which falls under the definition of "tracking" in Apple's App Tracking Transparency framework. On iOS, after you answer the in-app "About Ads" dialog on first launch, the ATT permission dialog is shown while the app is active. Personalized ads are served only if you choose "Show personalized ads" in the app and allow tracking in ATT; otherwise only non-personalized ads are served. IDFA is used only when ATT is authorized.

Because the App's own code does not track, the App's Privacy Manifest (PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy) declares NSPrivacyTracking = false. Data collected by the ad SDK (device ID, user ID, advertising data, crash/performance data, and coarse location; device ID, user ID, and advertising data are used for tracking) is declared in the Privacy Manifest bundled with the Pangle SDK.

3. Information Stored Locally on Device

To preserve game progress, the App stores the following data only on the device (iOS UserDefaults, Android DataStore):

This data is never transmitted to our servers. It is deleted when the App is uninstalled.

4. Local Notifications

The App schedules local reminders on your device: a "next in-game month has started" reminder, plus daily reminders (morning, noon, evening) encouraging you to take "Today's Money Quiz" and related activities. This notification data is never sent to external servers and does not pass through Apple's or Google's push services (it stays on the device). Permission is optional; you can decline and still play normally.

5. In-App Purchase

The App offers a one-time purchase ("Speed Boost Pro"). Payment processing is handled directly by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We only record an "unlocked" flag on the device. We never receive or store credit card information or buyer-identifying information. Purchases can be restored under the same Apple ID / Google account.

6. Advertising (Pangle)

The App integrates the advertising SDK (Pangle SDK) of Pangle, an ad network operated by the ByteDance group (Bytedance Pte. Ltd.). A banner ad (320x50) is displayed at the bottom of the map/dashboard screen (not shown to "Speed Boost Pro" purchasers). A rewarded video ad is shown only when you tap "Watch ad to advance 1 month" under Settings > Time Boost. Only when the video is watched to completion does the in-game time advance by 1 month as the reward.

For ad delivery, Pangle may collect and process:

On first launch, the App shows its own "About Ads" dialog asking whether to show personalized ads ("Show personalized ads" / "Don't personalize"). Until you answer, the ad SDK is not initialized and no ad requests are made. If you choose "Don't personalize", ads are still shown but are non-personalized. Your choice is passed to Pangle's consent setting and can be changed anytime from Settings > Info > Ad Settings in the App.

For details on how Pangle handles information, see the Pangle Privacy Policy.

7. Server Integration (Firebase)

To deliver learning content such as "Today's Money Quiz" in an up-to-date form without waiting for an app update, the App uses Google Firebase (Cloud Firestore and Firebase Authentication's anonymous sign-in).

At present, game progress data (age, savings, etc.; see "3. Information Stored Locally on Device") is stored only on the device and is not sent to Firebase. For how Firebase handles data, see Firebase Privacy and Security and the Google Privacy Policy.

8. Children

The App is designed for all ages, including middle and high school students. We do not perform age verification. Ad content is subject to the ad network's content policies. In-app purchases can be restricted via parental controls (iOS Screen Time / Google Family Link).

9. Data Deletion

The App requires no account registration and holds no personally identifying information such as your name or email address. You can delete data as follows:

10. Changes

This policy may be updated without notice. We will announce material changes in-app or in the store description.
