This policy covers all of our games and the website: what information is collected, why, who else receives it and the choices you have. ## The short version - Our games have no accounts. Your progress, settings and daily results stay on your device. - The games are free and show ads from Google AdMob. Ads use device identifiers and may be personalized only if you agree. - Buying "Remove ads" goes through Apple or Google; we never see your payment details. - You can change your ad choices at any time in each game's Settings → Privacy options, or in your phone's settings. ## Information stored on your device Game progress (level reached, streaks, best times, daily results, hints saved) and settings (sound, haptics, reminders) are stored only on your device. We don't receive them. Deleting the game deletes them. ## Information collected by the services our games use - **Google AdMob** (ads): your device's advertising identifier (IDFA on iOS, Google advertising ID on Android), IP address, approximate location derived from it, device and app information, and how you interact with ads. Google uses this to show and measure ads, limit how often you see the same ad, and prevent fraud. Ads are personalized only with your consent; otherwise Google shows non-personalized ads. [How Google uses information from apps that use its services](https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites). - **Google User Messaging Platform** (consent): stores your ad-consent choice on your device and shares it with Google so your choice is respected. - **Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics** (Google), in games that include them: app interactions such as levels started and finished, crash reports, device and app information and an app-instance identifier, used to fix bugs and improve the games. Analytics is used only with your consent where consent is required. [Firebase privacy information](https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy). - **Apple App Store and Google Play** (purchases and downloads): process the "Remove ads" purchase and tell the game whether you own it. We don't receive your name or payment details. [Apple](https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/) · [Google](https://policies.google.com/privacy). - **Google Fonts**: some versions of our games download their fonts from Google's servers the first time they run, which shares your IP address with Google. We are removing this as games are updated. Daily reminders, if you turn them on, are scheduled on your device; no notification service of ours is involved. ## Information you give us If you email us (for example from a game's Settings → Contact support), we receive your email address, your message and the game and version in the subject line. We use them only to reply and keep them as long as needed to help you. ## Why we use information (legal bases) - **Personalized ads and analytics:** your consent, where the law requires it (for example in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland). - **Non-personalized ads, fraud prevention and crash reports:** our legitimate interest in keeping the games free, working and secure. - **Purchases and support:** to provide what you asked for. ## Your choices - **Ad consent:** each game asks before showing ads where required. Change your answer any time in the game's Settings → Privacy options. - **Tracking on iPhone:** answer the "Allow tracking" prompt, or change it in Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. - **Android:** reset or delete your advertising ID in Settings → Google → Ads (or Settings → Privacy → Ads). - **No ads at all:** buy "Remove ads" in any game. Once bought, that game never starts the ad service again. ## US state privacy rights We don't sell personal information for money. Showing personalized ads through Google may count as "sharing" or "targeted advertising" under laws such as California's. You can opt out with your device's ad settings above, or by choosing not to allow personalized ads in the game's Privacy options. You may also ask us what we hold about you and ask us to delete it; we will not treat you differently for doing so. ## Children's privacy Our games are made for a general audience aged 13 and over and are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or the age required in your country). Ads in our games are limited to content suitable for a general audience. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it. ## Keeping and deleting information We have no accounts, so there is nothing for us to delete on our side except emails you sent us. Uninstalling a game removes everything it stored on your device. For information held by Google (ads, analytics), use the device settings above or [Google's privacy controls](https://myaccount.google.com/data-and-privacy), or ask us and we will help. ## International transfers Google and our other providers may process information in the United States and other countries, under safeguards such as the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. ## This website This website doesn't use advertising or analytics cookies. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (such as IP address and pages requested) for security. ## Your rights Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, to object to its use, to withdraw consent, and to complain to your local data protection authority. To make a request, contact us using the details below. ## Changes to this policy We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. ## Contact us If you have questions about this policy or your information, email [privacy@nytegames.com](mailto:privacy@nytegames.com) or visit our [contact page](https://nytegames.com/contact). ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@id":"https://nytegames.com/#website","@type":"WebSite","description":"NYTE Games makes calm, cozy brain games and puzzle games with one answer and no guessing.
