Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Pixel Color Sort (“the App”), published by LexNemesis, handles information when you use the App on Android or iOS.
Summary
The App is a single-player puzzle game. It has no accounts and we do not run a server that receives your data. Game progress and settings stay on your device. The App shows optional rewarded ads through Google AdMob; Google may collect device and usage data to show and measure those ads, as described below. We do not sell your personal information.
Information stored on your device
The App stores locally on your device:
- Game progress (levels unlocked, stars, coins, titles, achievements)
- Settings (sound, music, haptics and similar preferences)
- Purchase flags, such as whether you own “VIP” (no ads)
This data stays on your device unless you back up or transfer your device using your platform’s own tools (for example Google Backup or iCloud).
Advertising (Google AdMob)
The App offers optional rewarded ads: you choose to watch a short ad in exchange for an in-game reward, such as a hint or an extra tube. The App does not show ads you did not ask for. Ads are provided by Google AdMob (Google LLC / Google Ireland Limited). To show, measure and protect these ads, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect:
- Device identifiers, such as the advertising ID (Android) or IDFA / IDFV (iOS)
- Approximate location, derived from your IP address
- App interactions, such as app launches, taps and ad views
- Diagnostics, such as crash logs and performance data
Google uses this data for advertising, ad measurement, analytics and fraud prevention, and may use it to personalise ads across apps where you have allowed this. Google’s handling of this data is described in its Privacy Policy (policies.google.com/privacy) and in “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” (policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites).
Your choices and consent
- EEA, UK and Switzerland: before any ad is loaded, the App asks for your consent through Google’s consent form. You can change your choice at any time in Settings → AD PRIVACY.
- US states with privacy laws: you can opt out of the sale or sharing of your data through the same form, in Settings → AD PRIVACY.
- iOS: the App asks for permission to track through Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt. If you decline, ads are still shown but are not personalised using the IDFA. You can change this in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking.
- Android: you can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device’s Settings → Privacy → Ads.
- No ads at all: buying “VIP” gives you every ad reward without watching ads.
In-app purchases
The App offers optional in-app purchases (for example coin packs, “VIP” or the Campaign Pass), processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. Payment details are handled by Apple or Google; we never see them.
Information we do not collect
- Name, email, phone number or other contact details
- Precise (GPS) location
- Photos, contacts or microphone audio
- Account credentials (there is no sign-in)
Children’s privacy
The App is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Data sharing
We do not sell your personal information and we do not receive it ourselves. Data collected by the Google Mobile Ads SDK goes to Google as described above. Apple and Google also process information related to app distribution and purchases under their own privacy policies.
Data retention and deletion
Game data on your device remains until you reset progress in the App, clear the App’s storage or uninstall it. Data collected by Google for advertising is retained under Google’s policies; you can limit it with the choices listed above.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the App’s features change. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do.
