Privacy Policy

Podium: Sprint Arcade (“Podium”) is an arcade athletics game developed and published by Good Vibes Lab (“GVL”, “we”, “us”), the controller of your data.

This policy explains what data Podium processes, why, and how to exercise your rights. It complies with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable regulations.

Podium asks for no account, no email address and no password. On first launch, you pick a nickname and a country. The app then generates a random player identifier and a secret specific to your device: they are only used to submit your scores to the leaderboards, without revealing anything about who you are.

To run the online leaderboards, we store:

• your nickname and your country;
• your best mark in each event;
• the creation and update dates of your profile;
• the random player identifier generated by the app.

This data is hosted by Supabase, in the European Union (Paris region).

Your nickname, country and marks are public: they appear on the leaderboards (world, country and nations), visible to every player. Choose a nickname that does not identify you — avoid your full name, for example.

Your progress, coins, cosmetics (skins) and settings stay on your device. They are never sent to our servers and are erased if you uninstall the app.

The free version of Podium shows ads served by Google AdMob: rewarded videos, which you choose to watch, and interstitial ads.

• With your consent — collected through Google’s consent form in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, and through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt on iOS — AdMob may use your device’s advertising identifier and device data to show personalised ads.
• Without consent, ads are non-personalised.

You can limit tracking or reset your advertising identifier at any time in your device settings (on iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking; on Android: the device’s Ads settings). To learn more about how Google uses your data, see Google’s dedicated page.

Buying Podium Pro removes the ads.

Podium Pro is a one-time purchase that removes ads. Payment is processed by Apple’s App Store or Google Play: we never see your payment details. We only receive the purchase status, to unlock Podium Pro.

Podium relies on the following services:

• Supabase: hosting of the leaderboard database, in the European Union (Paris region).
• Google AdMob: ad serving (see section 5). Google processes this data under its own privacy rules and may process it outside the European Union, with the safeguards required by the GDPR.
• App Store (Apple) and Google Play: processing of the Podium Pro in-app purchase.

• Online leaderboards (nickname, country, marks, identifier): providing the service you use.
• Personalised ads: your consent.
• Non-personalised ads: our legitimate interest in funding a free game.

We do not sell your personal data, nor rent it to anyone.

Your online profile (nickname, country, marks, identifier) is kept until you delete your data. Data stored on the device stays there until you uninstall the app.

Under the GDPR, you have the right to access, rectify, erase and object to the processing of your data. You can change your nickname and country at any time in the app’s Profile, and exercise your other rights by writing to contact@goodvibeslab.app (include your nickname and country so we can find your profile).

If you believe your rights are not respected, you can lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (www.cnil.fr).

In the app: Profile → “Delete my data”. Your online profile and your scores are erased immediately from our servers and the leaderboards. You can also email us at contact@goodvibeslab.app. Full details at goodvibeslab.app/podium/en/delete-data.

Podium is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has sent us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Communication between the app and our servers is encrypted (HTTPS).

Updates will be posted on this page with the revised date.
