L Puzzle Privacy Policy

1. Who is responsible for your data

L Puzzle for Android (package com.vimaxstudio.lpuzzle) is published by Vimax Studio. For any questions about your data, email support@vimaxstudio.com.

2. What stays on your device

Your level progress, stars, points, sound and vibration settings, and whether you have turned off ads are stored on your device. They are deleted when you uninstall the game.

3. Signing in with Google Play Games

Signing in is optional: you can play the whole game without it. If you sign in with Google Play Games:

• the game receives your Google Play Games player ID and uses it to sign you in to Firebase Authentication, which gives you a Firebase user ID;
• your progress is saved to the cloud in Google Cloud Firestore (servers in the US): completed levels, stars, best results, total score, sound and vibration settings, whether ads are turned off, platform, game version and the time of the last save;
• your result appears on the Google Play Games leaderboard under your gamer name. The leaderboard is run by Google.

4. Google services in the game

The game uses Google services. Here is what each of them receives:

• Google Firebase Analytics: in-game events (opening the game, starting and finishing a level, hints, undoing a move, moving between screens), app instance ID, advertising ID, device model, OS version, language and approximate location based on your IP address (country or region).
• Firebase Crashlytics: crash reports, device model, OS, game version, a technical installation ID and the game state at the moment of the crash: current level, score and your user ID if you are signed in.
• Firebase Installations and Firebase Cloud Messaging: installation ID and a token for push notifications.
• Google AdMob shows banner and interstitial ads. It receives your advertising ID, IP address, device data and data about how you interact with ads.
• Google Play Billing (via Unity IAP): the one-time "Remove ads" purchase. Google processes your payment details, and we never see them. The game only receives confirmation of the purchase.
• Google Play Games: sign-in and the leaderboard.

Learn more in the Google Privacy Policy, in how Google uses information from partner apps and in the Firebase privacy information.

5. Ads

We show personalized ads only with your consent where the law requires it: in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland. You can reset or turn off your advertising ID in your Android settings.

6. What the game does not collect

The game does not collect your name, email address, phone number, contacts, precise location or photos, and does not use the microphone or camera. We do not sell data.

7. Legal basis

Under the GDPR:

• sign-in and cloud saves: performance of our agreement with you, since you choose to turn them on;
• crash reports and analytics: our legitimate interest in keeping the game stable and making it better;
• personalized ads: your consent.

8. Where data is processed

Data is processed on Google servers, including in the US.

9. How long we keep data

• cloud saves: until you ask us to delete them;
• Crashlytics reports: 90 days;
• Google Analytics event data: 2 months;
• Google Analytics user-level data: up to 14 months after the user's last activity.

10. How to delete your data

• Data on your device is deleted when you uninstall the game.
• To delete your cloud save and Firebase account, email support@vimaxstudio.com with the subject "L Puzzle: data deletion" and include your Google Play Games gamer name. Deletion takes up to 30 days, and we will reply to confirm once it is done.
• Analytics data and crash reports are deleted automatically once the periods above run out.

11. Children

The game is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If such data has reached us, let us know and we will delete it.

12. Your rights

Under the GDPR and similar laws, you can find out what data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and object to its processing. Email support@vimaxstudio.com. If you believe we are breaking the law, you can complain to the data protection authority in your country.

California residents: we do not sell or share personal information as defined by the CCPA, other than the processing by Google ad services described above.

13. Changes

If anything changes, we will update this page and the date at the top.
