1. Scope and operator

Gray Software Solutions, LLC ("Gray Software Solutions," "we," "us," or "our") operates BlackJack: 21. This Policy applies to the BlackJack: 21 mobile app on iOS (bundle identifier com.gss.blackjack) and Android (application identifier com.gsss.blackjack), and to this Privacy Policy page.

This Policy does not govern third-party websites, app stores, or services that have their own privacy policies. It also does not automatically apply to other Gray Software Solutions apps or pages that link to a different policy.

2. Information we process

Game and preference data stored on your device

BlackJack: 21 stores game information locally so the app can function, including:

  • virtual chip balance, daily-reward timing, and duplicate-safe reward records;
  • deck count, cut percentage, dealer soft-17 rule, hints, and card-counter settings;
  • audio preferences, selected table, World Tour progress, and challenge progress;
  • your analytics choice, advertising-consent state, and cached no-ads status; and
  • opaque or hashed records used to prevent the same purchase or reward from being applied twice.

During an upgrade from the legacy version, the app may read its earlier on-device save to adopt your chip balance and compatible settings. That migration does not upload, alter, or delete the legacy source record.

Card order, card identities, and the active shoe are used to run the game but are not retained as a remote player history.

Optional app-usage analytics

Firebase Analytics collection starts only if you select Share Usage. If enabled, Google may process an app-instance identifier, session information, approximate location derived from network information, and app/device information. We send reviewed gameplay and feature events such as:

  • screens and features opened;
  • hands started or completed, actions taken, outcomes, virtual stakes and payouts, and round duration;
  • game-rule and audio settings changed;
  • World Tour levels, destinations, challenges, and passport completion; and
  • aggregate ad outcomes and virtual-chip reward events.

Our custom analytics events do not include your current chip balance, card identities or order, running or true count, internal round identifiers, purchase receipts, transaction identifiers, contact information, or the consent choice itself.

Advertising and consent data

BlackJack: 21 uses Google AdMob for occasional interstitial ads between rounds and for optional rewarded ads in the Shop. Google and its advertising partners may process IP address, approximate location derived from IP, ad or device identifiers where permitted, app interactions such as launches, taps and ad views, diagnostic information, and your advertising-consent choices. Google User Messaging Platform is used to request consent where required.

On iOS, the app uses Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt before allowing access to data used for tracking across other companies' apps or websites. Depending on your choice, region, and device settings, Google may provide personalized, non-personalized, or limited ads. Declining tracking does not necessarily remove ads.

Purchases, entitlements, and rewarded-ad verification

If you use Shop or rewarded features when available, Apple App Store or Google Play processes the transaction. We do not receive your full payment-card or bank-account details. RevenueCat processes an anonymous App User ID, device/platform information, purchase and entitlement history, receipts or purchase tokens, and related transaction status so purchases, Restore, refunds, and the no-ads entitlement can be validated.

Our Google Cloud/Firebase verification service may process opaque installation and delivery identifiers, hashed authentication and routing values, product and entitlement information, purchase/refund events, and rewarded-ad verification records. This information is used to prevent duplicate or fraudulent chip grants and to deliver a verified purchase or reward to the correct installation. Raw receipts, purchase tokens, and store transaction identifiers are not stored in the app's local delivery ledger or sent to Firebase Analytics.

Important: BlackJack: 21 does not currently provide a player account or cloud save. Your spendable chip balance is device-local. A verified no-ads entitlement may be restored, but consumable or unspent virtual chips are not promised to survive uninstall, app-data deletion, or transfer to another device.

Support communications

If you email us, we receive the email address, message, and any information or attachments you choose to provide. We use this information to respond, investigate problems, document resolutions, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations. Please do not send payment-card information or passwords.

This Privacy Policy page

This page is hosted using Amazon Web Services. AWS may process IP address, browser/device data, and request metadata as needed to deliver and secure the page. The page itself contains no advertising, analytics scripts, account forms, or intentionally set cookies.

The app does not request your name, phone number, physical address, contacts, photos, camera, microphone, health data, or precise GPS location as part of gameplay.

3. How we use information

We use information described above to:

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we rely on consent for optional analytics and advertising choices; performance of a contract to provide purchases and requested services; legitimate interests in operating, securing, and improving the app; and compliance with legal obligations.

4. When information is shared

We do not sell personal information for money. We share information only as described in this Policy, including with service providers that operate features on our behalf, with app stores and advertising partners, when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or as part of a merger, financing, acquisition, or sale of assets subject to appropriate protections.

Advertising disclosures may be considered a "sale," "sharing," or use for targeted advertising under some United States state privacy laws even when no money is exchanged. You can use the controls described below to limit personalized advertising where available.

We require providers acting on our behalf to protect information consistently with their contractual obligations and applicable law. Their independent products and services are also governed by their own privacy terms.

5. Your choices and privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or an explanation of personal information we control; withdraw consent; object to certain processing; opt out of targeted advertising, sale, or sharing; or appeal a decision. You will not be discriminated against for exercising applicable privacy rights.

To make a request, email us using the address below. BlackJack: 21 has no player account and does not ask for direct identity information, so we may be unable to connect an email address to a particular pseudonymous analytics, advertising, purchase, or installation record without additional information. We will use only information reasonably necessary to verify and fulfill your request. You may also contact the relevant provider directly for data it controls independently.

EEA, UK, and Swiss residents may lodge a complaint with their local data-protection authority. California and other eligible U.S. residents may use the same contact method to exercise applicable state-law rights and may designate an authorized agent where the law permits.

6. Retention and deletion

When data is no longer needed, we delete or de-identify it, unless continued retention is required or permitted for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, or enforcement.

7. Security and international transfers

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the data, including encrypted network transport, restricted service access, secret management, server-side verification, one-way hashing for selected identifiers, and duplicate-safe transaction processing. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We and our providers may process information in the United States and other countries that may have different privacy laws from your country. Where required, transfers are made using recognized legal mechanisms and contractual safeguards.

8. Children

BlackJack: 21 is intended for adults age 18 and older and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app or a support request, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.

9. Changes to this Policy

We may update this Policy to reflect changes to the app, providers, or legal requirements. We will update the date at the top of this page and provide additional notice or request renewed consent when required. Materially different data collection will not be covered retroactively by this Policy.
