Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 2026


1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use data in our mobile puzzle game (the "Service"). Our game is designed with a "privacy-first" approach, meaning we only collect leaderboard data if you explicitly choose to share it.

2. Data Collection & User Consent

Voluntary Leaderboard Participation: By default, the game does not collect your scores or identity. Only if you choose to submit your score to the Global Leaderboard, we collect a player-chosen nickname and your game score.

No Mandatory Registration: You can enjoy the full puzzle experience without ever providing any personal data.

Storage: These voluntary details are stored securely via Google Firebase/Firestore.

3. Third-Party Advertising

Google AdMob: We use AdMob to display advertisements. AdMob may collect and use your device’s Advertising ID to serve ads. This process is independent of our leaderboard system.

4. How We Use Data

The data we collect is used solely for:

5. Data Retention

Leaderboard data is stored in Firestore as long as you participate in the rankings. You can request the deletion of your nickname and score by contacting us at the email address provided below.

6. Children’s Privacy

Our game is a puzzle game intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13 (or 16 in certain jurisdictions).

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location (such as the EU/GDPR or California/CCPA), you may have the right to access, update, or delete the data we have on you.
