Gateways Apps does not access private data -- at least not directly and not that we are aware of.
Our apps may (or may not) use cookies. These cookies (if used) reside on your device and are used by the app for preferences, game scores, and saving progress. Cookies like these would be used primarily in games that allow continued game play from a previous session.
These cookies are only read by the app on your device any such data is not transmitted to us in a known form.
We do not directly collect, store, or use any information from our apps. The app runs privately on your device -- at least that is our plan.
Google Play seems to know when users install and uninstall apps. We can't speak for how they know this or what they do with the information. All we see is a summary total of the number of apps installed currently and the number of apps that had been installed one time or another. Click here to read Google Play Privacy Polity.
We don't use your data.
We have no plans for using personal data now or in the future. That is not our focus. Our focus is on providing education, training, and development in a fun and creative context.
We don't use ads and we don't have in-app purchases. This is not one of those free to play, pay to win type deals. Since money is not the main motivation we're happy with our modest 99 cents (or more in the case of a few custom apps).
At some point in the future some of our applications might utilize Google Analytics services. The Google Analytics would use cookies and usage data.
We don't use Google Analytics at this time. Our goal is to allow offline game play.
We include the below information about Google Analytics for completeness -- just in case.
Personal Data collected: Cookie and Usage Data.
Place of processing: USA
