The short version. Our mobile games have no accounts and no analytics: your progress stays on your phone (Little Duck Pond can also save to Google Play Games). Ads only play when you choose to watch one, and Google AdMob, which serves them, uses your device's advertising ID. LifeNovel needs a Google sign-in; we keep your email, your stories and your purchase history, and the text you write is sent to our AI provider to write the story and draw the pictures. This website uses no cookies and no trackers. We never sell your personal data.
Who we are
This policy is published by Wict Studio ("Wict Studio", "we", "us"). We are the developer of the games listed below and the controller of the personal data described here.
For anything about privacy, write to privacy@wict.id.vn.
What this policy covers
- this website (https://wict.id.vn);
- our Android games Cozy Duck Diner (Quán Vịt Ấm Áp), Little Duck Pond (Ao Vịt Nhỏ) and LowLand Roastery;
- LifeNovel, our web-based AI visual novel, and its accounts, credits and plans.
Where a game says something different in its own store listing or in-game screens, the more specific notice applies to that game.
Information we collect
On this website
- Language preference. When you switch language we remember your choice in your browser's local storage (
wict-lang). It never leaves your device. - Server logs. Like every website, our hosting provider records technical data for each request — IP address, browser type, page requested and time — to deliver the site and keep it secure. These logs are kept for a short time and are not used to identify you.
- Emails you send us. If you write to us (support, press, jobs…), we receive your email address, your message and anything you attach.
The website has no analytics, no advertising and no social-media trackers, and sets no cookies.
In our mobile games
Cozy Duck Diner, Little Duck Pond and LowLand Roastery do not ask you to create an account and do not include analytics or crash-reporting tools. They only ask Android for internet access (and, for two of them, permission to vibrate). They never access your contacts, location, camera, microphone or files.
| Data | Games | Why | Where it is kept |
|---|---|---|---|
| Game progress and settings | All three | To save your game between sessions | On your device only |
| Google Play Games player ID and saved game | Little Duck Pond | To sign you in to Play Games automatically and back up your pond to the cloud | Google Play Games services |
| Photos you choose to save or share | Little Duck Pond | To save an in-game photo to your gallery or open the share sheet — only when you tap the button | On your device / the app you share to |
| Advertising ID, IP address, device and app information, ad interactions | All three | To show the rewarded ads you ask for, measure them and prevent fraud | Google AdMob |
| Your consent choices for ads | All three, in regions that require consent | To remember whether you agreed to personalized ads | On your device (Google User Messaging Platform) |
In LifeNovel
| Data | Examples | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Account information | Email address, Google account identifier, display name provided by Google | To sign you in and keep your account |
| Your content | Worlds, characters, the actions you write, story turns, in-story phone messages and posts, generated images, exports | To run the game, save your stories and let you continue, rewind or export them |
| Purchase information | Plans, credit packs, credit balance and history, payment status and transaction references | To sell you credits and plans, keep accounts and handle refunds |
| Technical information | IP address, session cookie, browser and device type, logs and error reports | To keep you signed in, count free turns, prevent abuse and fix problems |
Card and bank details are entered directly with our payment provider; we never see or store your full card number.
How we use information
We use personal data only to:
- provide the games, the website and LifeNovel, including saving your progress and showing rewarded ads you request (performance of a contract);
- keep our services secure, prevent fraud and abuse — for example, limiting free LifeNovel turns per network — and fix bugs (legitimate interests);
- show personalized ads where you have agreed to them (consent — you can change your mind at any time);
- reply to your messages and support requests (legitimate interests);
- keep financial records and meet other legal duties (legal obligation).
We do not make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects based solely on automated processing.
AI processing in LifeNovel
To write each turn and draw each image, LifeNovel sends the relevant part of your game — your action, the current state of the world and recent story — to our AI provider, Runware, which runs the language and image models (for example, DeepSeek models for text). The provider processes this content on our behalf to return a result. We do not use your stories to train our own AI models.
Please do not include sensitive personal information about yourself or real people in your stories. AI output can be wrong, surprising or inappropriate; see our Acceptable Use Policy.
Advertising
Our mobile games only show rewarded ads — a video plays only after you tap a button that clearly offers a reward. There are no banners, interstitials or app-open ads.
Ads are provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may use your device's advertising ID, IP address and information about your device and the app to deliver, measure and personalize ads and to prevent fraud. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, the game shows Google's consent form before any personalized ads are served.
You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in your Android settings (Settings → Google → Ads on most devices). Learn how Google uses data from apps that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Who we share information with
We share personal data only with providers that help us run our services, under contracts that require them to protect it:
| Provider | What for |
|---|---|
| Google AdMob and Google User Messaging Platform | Rewarded ads and ad consent (mobile games) |
| Google Play Games services | Sign-in and cloud save (Little Duck Pond) |
| Google Sign-In | LifeNovel account sign-in |
| Runware | AI text and image generation (LifeNovel) |
| Our hosting and cloud storage providers | Running this website and LifeNovel, storing LifeNovel data |
| Our payment providers | Processing payments for LifeNovel credits and plans |
We may also disclose information if the law requires it, to protect the rights and safety of players or others, or as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets (in which case we will tell you before your data falls under a different policy).
We do not sell or rent personal data, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising beyond the AdMob processing described above.
International transfers
Our providers may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States and countries in Asia and Europe. When we transfer personal data from the EEA, UK or Switzerland, we rely on safeguards such as the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or our providers' equivalent commitments.
How long we keep information
- Game progress on your device stays until you clear the app's data or uninstall the game.
- Little Duck Pond cloud saves stay in Google Play Games until you delete them there.
- LifeNovel account and stories are kept while your account is active and deleted within 30 days after you ask us to delete the account.
- Purchase records are kept for as long as tax and accounting laws require.
- Emails are kept as long as needed to deal with your request, and normally no longer than 2 years.
- Job applications are kept for up to 12 months unless you ask us to delete them sooner.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR, the UK GDPR, Vietnamese personal data protection law or US state privacy laws such as the CCPA), you may have the right to:
- access the personal data we hold about you and get a copy;
- correct it;
- delete it;
- object to or restrict certain processing;
- withdraw consent at any time (this does not affect processing before you withdrew it);
- receive your data in a portable format;
- complain to your local data protection authority.
To use any of these rights, email privacy@wict.id.vn. We will answer within 30 days, and we may need to confirm your identity first. We will never treat you differently for using your rights. For step-by-step instructions, see Delete your data.
Children
Our mobile games are made for a general audience and are not directed primarily at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the higher age required in their country). LifeNovel is only for people aged 18 and over. Parents can find more in Children & Parents.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data, such as encrypted connections (HTTPS), access controls and keeping only what we need. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our games change. We will post the new version here with a new "last updated" date and, for significant changes, tell you in the game or by email where we can.
