Privacy Policy
Last Updated: March 2026
At Axis Forge Dev ("we", "us", or "our"), your privacy is a priority. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit the axisgamepad.com website and use the Axis Gamepad Pro Android application (collectively, the "Services"), and our practices for handling that information.
01 What We Collect
Given the nature of our application—system-level touch injection—we limit our data collection strictly to operational necessities. We do not collect keystrokes outside of configured mappings, nor do we analyze your screen content.
- • Device Information: We may collect non-identifiable information such as your Android version, device model, and controller type (e.g., Xbox Series, DualSense) to optimize injection protocols and mapping behaviors.
- • Purchase Information: If you elect to upgrade to Axis Gamepad Pro, payment processing is handled entirely by Google Play. We only receive an anonymous purchase token confirming your pro status. We do not process or store credit card numbers.
- • AdMob Advertising Data: For the free tier of the application, we utilize Google AdMob. AdMob may collect and use data (such as device IDs, ad metrics, and IP addresses) to provide personalized advertisements. You can modify your ad preferences via your Android settings.
- • Controller Mapping Data: The profiles and configurations you create are stored locally on your device unless you explicitly choose to export or share them.
02 The Shizuku Permission
Axis Gamepad Pro fundamentally operates via System Touch Delivery, requiring the use of Shizuku (or Root) to attain ADB-level permissions. We use these permissions exclusively to inject standard touch events generated cleanly by your paired game controller. We explicitly do not use these elevated privileges to access private files, intercept network traffic, read personal communications, or modify other applications.
03 How We Use Your Information
Information we collect is utilized in the following ways:
- • To provide, maintain, and improve the technical functionality of Axis Gamepad Pro.
- • To rapidly troubleshoot mapping logic across varying Android device models.
- • To verify Pro tier entitlement natively to prevent tampering while supporting offline activation.
- • To serve relevant advertisements (free tier only) via Google AdMob.
04 Third-Party Services
The application utilizes standard, trusted third-party services whose privacy practices we do not directly control:
- • Google Play Services: Used for in-app billing verification. Google Privacy Policy
- • Google AdMob: Used for advertising delivery. Google Privacy Policy
05 Data Security & Retention
Because Axis Gamepad Pro is an on-device utility, almost all primary data (mappings, gyro tuning, macros) stays completely offline on your device storage. Any telemetry or entitlement tracking we manage uses industry-standard encryption protocols. We only retain any aggregated analytical data for as long as necessary to monitor the health of the application's performance across Android ecosystem changes.
06 Children's Privacy
Our Services are intended for a general audience and are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 inline with COPPA regulations.
07 Contact Information
