Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2 November 2026
Orebound: Idle Space Mining is a game from Itworked Systems, a company registered in Türkiye. This page explains what information the game uses, why, and who receives it. There are no accounts, and your game progress never leaves your phone.
Itworked Systems is the data controller for this information under Turkish data protection law (KVKK, Law No. 6698) and, for players in the EU and the UK, the GDPR.
- Your progress, settings and redeemed promo codes are saved on your phone only. We run no game server and cannot see your progress.
- Ads only play when you tap 2× Boost. Google AdMob, which shows them, starts with the game and receives device and ad information.
- Adapty runs the shop for us: it receives basic device details when the game opens and checks anything you buy. Apple or Google takes the payment, and we never see your card details.
- We never sell your information.
What leaves your phone, and why
| What | Why | Who receives it |
|---|---|---|
| Your device's advertising identifier (on iPhone and iPad only if you allow tracking), your IP address (used to estimate a rough location), device and app details, when the game opens, and which ads you saw or tapped | To show the reward ad you asked for, count it, limit repeats and prevent fraud. With your consent, also to make ads more relevant to you | Google (AdMob), and the advertising companies that bid for the ad through Google. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland they are listed in Google's consent message and only get what your choices there allow |
| Information about how the app and its ads perform, such as load times and crashes | So ads load reliably | Google (AdMob) |
| A random customer ID, device identifiers, basic device details (such as model, system version, language, time zone and store country), your IP address, when the game opens and, if you buy something, what you bought and when and the store receipt | To show shop prices, confirm purchases, restore them on a new phone and count sales | Adapty, and Apple or Google |
Nothing else leaves your phone. There are no accounts, no sign-in and no separate analytics service.
What stays on your phone
- Your game: colonies, drills, resources, relics, settings and redeemed promo codes, saved in the app's own storage. Deleting the app deletes them, and we cannot recover them for you.
- Phone notifications (a silo filling up, a Frontier survey finishing, and at most once a day a note of what is waiting, such as crews back from an expedition or full quests) are scheduled on your phone. No server sends them.
- Ostra's voice: most of her lines are recordings that come with the app, and your device's built-in text-to-speech reads the rest. The game sends none of this anywhere.
- Promo codes are checked inside the app.
Ads and your choices
- The only ads are reward ads you choose to watch with the 2× Boost button. The Ad-free Boost purchase starts the boost without an ad.
- In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, the game shows Google's consent message before any ad, so you decide whether your data may be used for personalized ads. You can change your choice at any time in the game's Settings, under Privacy choices.
- iPhone and iPad: ads can only use your advertising identifier if you allow tracking when iOS asks. You can change this in iOS Settings, Privacy & Security, Tracking.
- Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings, usually under Google, then Ads, or under Privacy, then Ads.
- Google explains how it uses information from apps that show its ads at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Its privacy policy is at policies.google.com/privacy.
Purchases
Purchases go through Apple's App Store or Google Play, under their terms. We never see your payment details. Adapty shows the shop's prices, checks purchases and lets you restore them on our behalf, and receives the details listed above. Read how Adapty handles this data at adapty.io/end-users-privacy.
Why we may use this data
- Ads: where the law requires consent, we rely on the choices you make in Google's consent message, and you can change them at any time. Where it does not, we rely on our legitimate interest in funding a free game with ads and in preventing ad fraud.
- Purchases: to deliver what you bought.
How long it is kept
- On your phone: until you delete the game. Restart the company in Settings wipes your progress but keeps your purchases and redeemed codes.
- Shop records (purchases and the device details above) are kept by Adapty for us, so purchases can be checked and restored.
- Ad data is kept by Google under its own rules. We have no other copy.
Where the data is processed
Google and Adapty are based outside Türkiye and may process data in other countries, including the United States. These transfers follow the rules for sending data abroad in Turkish data protection law and, for players in the EU and the UK, the GDPR.
Your rights
Under Turkish data protection law (KVKK, article 11) and the GDPR, you can ask us:
- whether we process data about you, and for a copy of it;
- why we use it, and who we share it with, in Türkiye or abroad;
- to correct it, or to delete it when there is no longer a reason to keep it, and to pass that on to anyone we shared it with;
- to stop using it for a purpose you object to.
You can also object to a decision about you made only by automated analysis, withdraw your consent at any time, and claim compensation if unlawful use of your data harms you. Because your game stays on your phone, we hold very little ourselves. We will help with anything Adapty keeps for us, and point you to Google for ad data.
Write to the address below. We answer within 30 days, free of charge. You can also complain to Türkiye's Personal Data Protection Authority (Kişisel Verileri Koruma Kurumu) or, if you live in the EU or the UK, to the data protection authority where you live.
Children
Orebound is not made for children under 13, and we do not knowingly process their data.
Changes
If this policy changes, we update this page and the date at the top.
