What Ladja keeps on your phone
Android gives every app a private storage area that no other app can read. Ladja writes four things into it:
- The battle in progress — where both fleets are, which squares have been fired at, whose turn it is. Closing the app mid-game resumes rather than restarts.
- Your running tally — wins and losses across the current series. The fourth bay explains this one properly.
- Your settings — the difficulty of the computer admiral, whether you were playing it or another person, and the interface language.
- Nothing further. No archive of past battles, no record of where you like to put your ships, no log of which squares you tend to fire at first.
Everything the board is made of is drawn by the app, so none of this arrived from anywhere. It stays in the app's own storage, it is copied into a device backup only if you have Android's backup switched on — in which case Google holds that backup under Google's terms and we never see it — and uninstalling takes all four away.
What it never does
- No sign-in and no profile. The app never asks for a name, an email address or a telephone number, and has nowhere to keep one.
- No advertising and no advertising identifier. The package carries no advertising code, so the Advertising ID is never read and nothing about how you play is sold to anybody.
- No analytics and no crash reporting. No session counted, no screen logged, no stack trace sent, and no remote switch we could throw from here.
- No online play and no leaderboard. Your opponent is the device or the person you hand the phone to. Neither route touches a network.
- No permissions of consequence. No location, contacts, camera, microphone, photos or files, and the whole game works with the handset in flight mode.
These describe the build on the store today. The last bay sets out the order in which any of them would have to be withdrawn if that changed.
Clearing it
Starting a new battle replaces the saved one, and the series tally has its own reset where it is displayed. For everything at once, Android's own app settings will clear Ladja's storage while leaving the app installed, which returns it to its first run — no battle in progress, tally back to zero, difficulty and language at their defaults.
Neither route needs anything from us, and neither can be undone, because no second copy of any of it was ever made anywhere.
Yes, this one keeps a score. Here is the whole of it.
Most privacy policies for small games are a list of things the app does not do. That is easy to write when it is true, and this one could have ended at the second bay. But Ladja does keep a number about you — a running tally of wins and losses across a series — and a policy that lists nine absences while quietly passing over the one presence is doing the thing it claims to be against.
So, precisely. The tally is two integers. It counts games finished in the current series, it sits in the app's own storage beside the saved battle, and it resets when you reset it or when the app's storage is cleared. It is not dated, so it cannot say when you played. It is not broken down by difficulty, so it cannot say how good you are against a known opponent. It is not kept per-player in a hot-seat match, so it says nothing about anybody you handed the phone to. And it has never left the handset, because there is nothing in this app capable of sending it.
Why spell out that much over two integers? Because of what the same two integers become with three small additions that nobody would announce. Put a date on each game and it is an attendance record. Split it by difficulty and it is a skill measurement. Attach it to an account so that it survives a new phone, and it is a skill measurement about a named person, held by somebody else. Every ranking system that anyone has ever objected to began as a local win counter that seemed too trivial to mention.
None of those three has been done here, and none of them can be done quietly: the first needs a schema change, the second needs a schema change, and the third needs a network permission that would be visible in the Play listing before anybody downloaded it. If any of them ever happens, this bay is rewritten in plain words before the build ships.
Who is responsible
Article 13 obliges a controller to name itself however little it handles, so: Gama Logic d.o.o., Na Gorci 69A, 2000 Maribor, Slovenia, with Sašo Sršen answerable for it.
What sits under that name is one mailbox. The app passes us nothing to control, so there is no processing hiding behind the company. Getting Ladja from Google Play, or letting it update, is your own arrangement with Google, on Google's terms, and it would be identical whoever had published it.
If you write to us
Mail reaches [email protected]. Your address, your message and anything attached arrive with us, stay while the matter is live and for a short period after it closes in case it reopens, and are then deleted. The ground is legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f): a small publisher answering post about its own game. It is read, replied to and used for nothing further — no list, no onward sharing, no marketing. Ask for a thread to go sooner and it goes.
Because nothing in the app is identified, nothing in an email can be matched against a game you played. If a battle scored oddly, describe it — the grid size, the fleet, roughly what had been fired at — since there is no way for us to look it up.
We are not going to ask you to prove who you are
The General Data Protection Regulation applies in Slovenia alongside the national Zakon o varstvu osebnih podatkov (ZVOP-2), and it gives you the familiar set: to be told what is held about you, to receive a copy, to have it corrected, erased, restricted, to object to its use, and to take it elsewhere in a portable form. All of those work here, free of charge, in whatever words you like, answered within one month.
The part worth writing down is what we will not do when you use one.
No identity documents
Article 12 lets a controller ask for more information where it genuinely doubts who is making a request, and the common practice has hardened into demanding a scan of a passport or an identity card. Applied here, that would be absurd and actively harmful: we would be collecting a government document — the most sensitive thing in most people's possession — in order to answer a question about a mailbox that contains, at most, one email thread you yourself sent us. The request would create far more personal data than it could ever be about. So we do not ask, and if you are ever asked for identity documents by anybody claiming to be this company, it is not us.
What that means in practice
Write from the address you wrote from before and that is sufficient; it is the only thing we hold, so it is the only thing there is to match. If you have never written to us, the honest answer is that we hold nothing whatsoever about you, and you will get that in writing rather than a form to fill in. There is no account, no device identifier and no record of the app having been used, by you or by anybody.
What we cannot reach
The saved battle, the tally and your settings are on your handset. They are not in our possession and never have been, so we cannot produce, correct or erase them — the third bay says how you do that yourself in a few seconds. We would rather state that than imply a reach we do not have.
If an answer of ours falls short, the supervisory authority is the Information Commissioner — Informacijski pooblaščenec — at ip-rs.si, which takes a complaint directly, with nothing owed to us first. Anyone living elsewhere in the EEA may use their own national authority instead.
Children
Ladja has no chat, no shared content, no links leaving the app and nothing to buy. It gathers no data from anybody, which necessarily includes anybody under sixteen, so there is no consent mechanism to operate and none is pretended. It is a grid of squares and some rectangles that stand for ships; nothing in it depicts a real conflict, a real weapon or a real casualty.
If this page is ever rewritten
The date under the title names the edition in force. Where a release would make any statement above untrue — anything collected, anything transmitted, a component added, a permission requested — the order does not vary: this page is corrected first, the Data safety declaration in the Play Console is corrected in the same sitting, and only then does that release reach anybody. A sentence tidied for clarity is not such a change and brings nothing with it but a newer date.
Superseded editions are kept. Ask at the address below for the earlier text and it will be sent, which is the only way anybody outside this company can hold the paragraph above to account.
