Dabby's Color Studio: Privacy Policy
Effective date: 12 November 2026
This policy explains how the coloring game Dabby's Color Studio ("the app"), published by SUMAR_TECH ("we"), handles information. The app is made for children and their families and is designed to follow the Google Play Families policy and the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). It covers the app on Android phones, tablets and Chromebooks.
What we collect
Nothing that identifies a child or a parent. There are no accounts, no sign-in, no chat and no sharing with other players. The app never asks for a name, email, phone number, photo or location. Pictures are colored on the device; the artwork, stars, coins, badges and settings are stored only on the device and are deleted when the app is uninstalled. We run no servers of our own that receive this information, and the app contains no analytics of its own.
Advertising
Unless they have been removed with the optional purchase, the app shows ads through Google AdMob:
- an occasional full-screen ad when leaving the reward screen after finishing a picture (never during the first three pictures and never while painting), and
- an optional video on the home screen that a player can choose to watch for free in-game coins.
Every ad request is marked as directed to children and as coming from a user under the age of consent, with a maximum ad content rating of G. This means Google serves only non-personalized, family-appropriate ads: no interest-based advertising and no remarketing. The app does not use or send the device's advertising ID. To deliver ads and prevent fraud, Google may still process limited technical information such as the IP address, device type and the fact that an ad was shown or tapped, as described in Google's policy for child-directed requests and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
Purchases
The optional "No Ads + All Pictures" purchase is placed behind a grown-ups check in the app and is handled entirely by Google Play. We never see payment details. The app only receives a confirmation from Google Play that the purchase was made, so it can remove ads, unlock every picture and restore the purchase after a reinstall. Parents can require approval for purchases in the Google Play settings (Family Link or purchase authentication).
Grown-ups area
Settings, purchases and the privacy policy link sit behind a simple grown-ups check (a multiplication question) so young children don't open them by accident.
Permissions
The app uses internet access only for ads and purchases. It does not use the camera, microphone, contacts, files or location.
Security
Ad and purchase traffic travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS).
Parents' rights
Because we collect no personal information, there is nothing stored by us to review or delete. To remove everything the app saved on a device, uninstall it or use Grown-ups → Reset inside the app. If you have any question about your child's privacy, contact us and we will help.
Changes
We may update this policy. Changes are posted on this page with a new effective date.
