Privacy Policy

Trivia Israel (טריוויה ישראל) by KupiGames · Last updated: 30 October 2026

This page explains, in plain words, what information the game keeps about you, why, who handles it, for how long, and how to delete it. It applies to version 3.0 of the game and later. If the Hebrew and English versions differ, the Hebrew version governs.

Who we are

Trivia Israel is a Hebrew trivia game for phones (Android com.kupi.israel_trivia, iOS com.kupi.israeltrivia). It is developed and run by Liav Kuperman, an independent developer in Israel; KupiGames is his brand. He is responsible for the information collected in the game (the database owner under Israeli law, the controller under the GDPR). Contact: support@kupigames.co.il.

In short

• We keep what the game needs to work: your account, name, progress, coins, friends and purchases.
• The game shows ads from Google AdMob and the networks AdMob works with: Unity Ads, Meta Audience Network and InMobi.
• The game asks for your year of birth. Anyone who may be under 13, or who has not answered, gets non-personalised ads only, no social features and no analytics identifier.
• You can turn off "usage data sharing" in Settings and delete your account at any time, in the game or by email.
• We do not sell personal information.

How you sign in

• As a guest, with no details. Your progress is stored on our server, but only this phone can reach it; if you delete the app or sign out, the account cannot be recovered.
• With a Google account or an Apple account, to keep your progress and continue on any device.

What we keep, and why

• Account: a user ID, how you signed in (guest, Google or Apple), and the email address of your Google or Apple account if you used one. Why: to identify you and keep your progress.
• Profile: the display name you chose, the avatar you picked from the game's avatars, and badges such as "founder" or your league tier. Display names are filtered for offensive words. Why: to show you in the game. Your name and avatar are visible to other players.
• Year of birth: the year you chose in the age question. Why: to decide which features and ads suit your age (see "Children").
• Progress and game data: levels and stars, your answers (right or wrong, and how long they took), the daily challenge and streak, coins and their history, the packs and avatars you unlocked, and your settings. Why: to run the game, work out scores and rewards, and keep play fair.
• Playing with others (only for players the game allows social features): your friend code, friends list, friend requests, players you played against, duels, parties (game rooms), weekly leagues and the daily challenge leaderboard. The leaderboard and leagues show your name, avatar and score. Why: to play with friends and against other players.
• Presence: whether you are online right now, from which app version, and when you were last seen. Your friends can see whether you are online. Why: so friends can invite you to live games.
• Blocks and reports: players you blocked, and reports you sent about other players or that were sent about you. Why: to protect players and deal with abuse.
• Support and the in-app inbox: the topic and text of your request, an email address if you chose to give one, the app version, platform and device model, and order numbers if you attached them. Our replies go to the in-app inbox, and possibly a notification. Why: to answer you and fix the problem.
• Question reports: the question you reported and what you wrote. Why: to fix questions.
• Notifications: a device ID, its push token, platform, app version and whether notifications are on. Why: to send the daily challenge reminder, friend and duel notifications, support replies and, if you leave them on, "updates and offers". No notifications are sent between 22:00 and 08:00 (Israel time).
• Purchases: the product, the Google Play order number or App Store transaction number, the price, the time and the state (active, refunded, cancelled). Why: to give you what you bought, check it with the store, handle refunds and keep our accounts. We never see or store card or other payment details.
• Experiments: whether you took part in a test where different players see different versions of a screen or setting. Why: to improve the game.
• Security and anti-cheating: Firebase App Check confirms that requests come from the genuine app (via Google Play Integrity or Apple App Attest). The server also records unusual events, such as a refund or an implausible balance, and account suspensions. Why: to protect the game and its players.

You are not legally required to give us any information. Without it the game cannot keep your progress; playing as a guest needs no details at all.

Usage analytics (Google Analytics for Firebase)

The game sends Google Analytics events about how it is used: levels started and finished, answers (right or wrong, and a time range), hints, ads watched, store visits, duels and parties, notifications opened and support requests. Events do not include your name, free text or your user ID. The server stores your Google Analytics app instance ID on your account only to tell which ad campaign brought you. The server also sends a purchase event to Google Analytics, but never for children, for players who turned data sharing off, or for test purchases. The data is copied daily to Google BigQuery, where the server builds daily summaries that only the developer sees.

• In Israel and the rest of the world usage data sharing is on by default. You can turn it off at any time in Settings, "שיתוף נתוני שימוש" (usage data sharing); after that no events are sent.
• In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland the game shows Google's consent form, and usage data is collected only if you agree. You can change your choice in Settings, "פרטיות ופרסומות" (privacy and ads).
• Children, and anyone who has not answered the age question, get no analytics identifier, and events about playing with others are never sent. Google may receive anonymous signals without an identifier.

Crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics)

When the app crashes or hits an error, a report goes to Google with the device model, OS version, app version, an installation ID and what the app was doing. Reports help us fix bugs. They are sent from all devices, children's included, and Google keeps them for about 90 days.

Ads

The game is free and shows ads from Google AdMob. AdMob also picks ads from other networks: Unity Ads, Meta Audience Network and InMobi. These networks receive the device's advertising ID, the IP address (from which an approximate location can be inferred), device and app details, and information about ad views and taps. They use it to show and measure ads and to prevent fraud.

• In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland you will see Google's consent form, where you choose whether to allow personalised ads. You can change this in Settings, "פרטיות ופרסומות".
• On iOS the game asks, after a few sessions, whether it may track your activity (App Tracking Transparency). You can say no and keep playing. Children are not asked.
• Everywhere you can reset or limit the advertising ID in your device settings: Android – Settings > Google > Ads; iOS – Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• Children, and anyone who has not answered the age question, get only non-personalised ads suitable for all ages. Their ad requests are tagged as coming from a user under the age of consent, and as child-directed when the player is known to be under 13.

"Remove ads" and Trivia+ remove the ads; rewards you would get for watching an ad are then given without one.

Children

The game is intended for ages 13 and up. To protect younger children who play it anyway, it asks for the year of birth. Anyone who may be under 13 (including the year in which they turn 13), or who has not answered:

• cannot add friends, play live duels or parties with other players, join leagues or appear on the daily challenge leaderboard (they can play duels against a computer opponent);
• gets non-personalised ads only and is not asked about tracking on iOS;
• gets no analytics identifier and is never linked to an ad campaign;
• gets one notification only: the daily challenge reminder;
• can still block and report players and contact support.

The year of birth can only be changed to a later year (a younger age). If a child under 13 has given us information they should not have, write to us and we will delete it.

Who receives information

We do not sell personal information. It goes only to the services the game needs, and each also handles it under its own privacy policy:

• Google – Firebase (Authentication, Cloud Firestore and Realtime Database, Cloud Functions, Cloud Storage, Cloud Messaging, Remote Config, App Check, Analytics and Crashlytics), BigQuery, AdMob and Google Play. Google Privacy Policy.
• Apple – Sign in with Apple, the App Store and iOS notifications. Apple Privacy Policy.
• Unity – the Unity Ads network and the Unity In-App Purchasing library. Unity Privacy Policy.
• Meta – Meta Audience Network. Meta Privacy Policy.
• InMobi – the InMobi ad network. InMobi Privacy Policy.

We will also disclose information where the law requires it, or where needed to protect players from harm.

Where information is kept

Information is kept on Google's servers (Firebase) in the United States and the European Union; the game's server code runs in the EU (Belgium). Some services, such as Google Analytics, AdMob and the ad networks, also process information in other countries. When EU players' information leaves the European Economic Area, the transfer relies on safeguards the GDPR recognises, such as adequacy decisions or the standard contractual clauses these providers commit to.

How long we keep it

• Account, profile, progress, coins and friends – while the account exists; deleted with the account.
• Finished duels – 30 days after their last change. Finished game rooms and parties – 7 days. Leagues – about five weeks from the start of the week.
• Support requests – as long as needed as support history; after account deletion they remain without the user ID or email.
• Purchase records – as long as needed for accounting, tax and refunds; after account deletion they remain without the user ID.
• Reports about players – as long as needed to handle them and prevent repeat abuse.
• Google Analytics data – 14 months. The BigQuery copy – 425 days. The developer's daily summaries – about 400 days.
• Crash reports – about 90 days, at Google.
• Daily quotas (such as how many notifications were sent today) – a few days.

Deleting your account

You can delete your account at any time, free of charge: in the game, Settings > "מחיקת החשבון" (delete account), or by emailing us. Deletion removes the account and everything linked to it, except a few records that remain with nothing that identifies you. Full details: Delete your account and data. Deleting your account does not cancel a Trivia+ subscription; cancel it in the store.

Your rights

Under Israel's Protection of Privacy Law, 5741-1981, you may see the information kept about you and ask us to correct or delete it. Players in the EU, the UK and Switzerland may also, under the GDPR, get a copy of their data in a common format, restrict its use, object to use based on legitimate interests, and withdraw consent at any time (without affecting use before the withdrawal).

Much of this you can do yourself in the game: change your name, turn off usage data sharing, "updates and offers" and notifications, change your ad choices and delete your account. For anything else, email support@kupigames.co.il. To make sure the account is yours, we will ask you to write from the email of your Google or Apple account, or to give details from the game. We answer within 30 days.

If you think we have mishandled your information, you can complain to Israel's Privacy Protection Authority, or, in the EU, to your national data protection authority. We would be glad if you contacted us first.

Legal bases (for EU players)

• Performing our agreement with you – the account, progress, playing with others, purchases and support.
• Legitimate interests – security, preventing cheating and fraud, crash reports, handling reports and improving the game.
• Consent – personalised ads, usage analytics and "updates and offers".
• Legal obligation – keeping purchase records under tax and accounting law.

Security

Information is kept in Google Firebase and sent encrypted. The database security rules let each player read only their own data and what is public (name, avatar, leaderboards), and most data can be written only through the server. Only the developer accesses the data, to run the game and provide support. No system is perfectly secure; if a serious security incident happens, we will act as the law requires, including notifying the authority and players where required.

Players from earlier versions

If you played version 2 of the game, version 3.0 carries over your name, scores and friends from the earlier version. A premium purchase from the earlier version is confirmed with the store through Restore purchases. A profile picture you uploaded in the earlier version is kept until the account is deleted.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is on this page, and the date at the top changes with every update. We will also announce material changes in the game.
