Privacy Policy
Last updated: 4 October 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how ARTISON STUDIO PTE. LTD. ("Artison Studio", "we", "us") handles information in connection with our websites and games (together, the "Services"). By using our Services, you agree to the practices described here.
Yama's Hand for iOS and Android
This section applies to Yama's Hand mobile version 1.0, identified as com.artisonstudio.yamashand, provided by ARTISON STUDIO PTE. LTD. Where this section differs from the studio-wide descriptions below, this section takes precedence for this version of the game.
Local game data. Your profiles, saved runs and settings are stored in the app's local device storage. This version does not provide Artison-operated player accounts or cross-device cloud synchronization, and does not include app-owned advertising or analytics services. The general references below to gameplay/device data collection, analytics and synchronization do not describe those features in this version.
Backups and local deletion. Device or cloud backups controlled by your operating system may contain saved data, depending on your settings. These backups are not game-managed synchronization, and restoration is not guaranteed. You can remove a local profile through the Profiles screen. Uninstalling the app may remove local saves; operating-system backups are managed separately.
Optional support email. If you choose to email [email protected], we receive your email address and the message and attachments you send. We use this correspondence only to help with your enquiry, not for advertising. We keep support messages only while needed for that purpose. You can request deletion of your support correspondence by emailing the same address. The game does not automatically attach your saves or diagnostics. Do not send passwords, payment-card details or account recovery codes.
External services. The app stores, device operating system and externally opened studio website have their own data practices. Downloading the game, accessing platform services or opening the policy website is different from offline gameplay. The studio-wide policy below continues to describe website processing and support matters not specifically addressed in this section.
1. Who we are
Artison Studio is an independent game developer registered in Singapore (ARTISON STUDIO PTE. LTD.). You can reach us at any time at [email protected].
2. Information we collect
- Information you give us: if you email us or sign up to a mailing list, we receive your email address and the contents of your message.
- Gameplay & device data: our games may collect non-identifying technical data such as device model, operating system version, language, crash reports, and in-game progress, in order to run, save, and improve the game.
- Store & platform data: when you download or purchase a game, the relevant platform (Apple App Store, Google Play, Steam, Nintendo eShop) processes your purchase and may share aggregate or limited data with us in accordance with their terms. We do not receive your full payment details.
- Analytics: we may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand how our Services are used in aggregate.
3. How we use information

- To diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and improve balance and design;
- To respond to your enquiries and provide support;
- To send updates you have asked to receive (you can opt out at any time);
- To comply with legal obligations and platform requirements.
4. Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with service providers who help us run our Services (such as hosting, analytics, and distribution platforms), and only to the extent needed to provide the Services, or where required by law.
5. Children
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
6. Data retention
We keep information only for as long as needed for the purposes described above, or as required by law, after which it is deleted or anonymised.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To make a request, email [email protected].
8. International transfers
We are based in Singapore and may process information in other countries where our service providers operate. Where we transfer information, we take steps to protect it consistent with this policy and applicable law.
9. Changes to this policy
