This policy does not apply to third-party websites, apps, or services that may be linked from or integrated with the app, except as described here.

3. Information We Collect

We may collect information in the following categories.

However, you may provide information to us if you:

This information may include:

This data may be stored locally on your device and may also be processed by third-party services if analytics, ads, or diagnostics are enabled.

Google’s AdMob documentation and Play data disclosure guidance indicate that the Google Mobile Ads SDK may collect data such as device identifiers, diagnostics, IP address, and user interaction data, subject to implementation and configuration.

D. Advertising Data

If the app displays ads, ad networks and related partners may collect or receive information such as:

• advertising ID

• IP address

• device identifiers

• app interactions

• diagnostics

• performance data

• approximate location derived from IP address

We use this information to serve ads, limit fraudulent activity, measure ad performance, and improve monetization.

E. Data Stored on Your Device

The app may use local storage, cache, and device files to:

• save progress

4. How We Use Information

We may use information for the following purposes:

• to save gameplay progress and preferences

• to improve performance, stability, and user experience

• to fix bugs and troubleshoot issues

• to provide customer support

• to display, personalize, and measure advertising

• to prevent abuse, fraud, invalid traffic, and policy violations

• to comply with legal obligations

• to protect our rights, users, and the integrity of the app

5. Advertising and Google AdMob

Tile Pair Journey uses Google AdMob to display ads, which may include:

• rewarded ads

• interstitial ads

• other Google Mobile Ads formats, depending on the version of the app

Google requires publishers using AdMob to maintain a privacy policy that discloses data collection, sharing, and usage resulting from Google products and services, including technologies like cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and identifiers.

AdMob and its partners may collect and process information to:

• provide ads

• measure ad performance

• prevent fraud and abuse

• support frequency capping

• personalize or contextualize ads where permitted

• comply with regional legal requirements

Depending on the user’s location and your implementation, the app may request consent before serving certain ads. Google recommends using the User Messaging Platform (UMP) SDK to manage consent and privacy choices where required.

6. Consent and Privacy Choices

Depending on your country or region, you may have privacy rights or be shown a consent message before certain data is used for personalized advertising.

Where required by law or platform policy, we may:

• ask for consent for personalized ads

• offer privacy choices

• allow you to change privacy options if supported in the app

If you do not consent to personalized advertising, you may still see non-personalized or contextual ads where available.

7. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your personal information in the ordinary meaning of “sell.” However, we may share information with service providers and partners as needed to operate the app.

We may share information with:

• Google Play for app distribution, downloads, updates, billing, compliance, and platform operations

• Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK for advertising, ad measurement, fraud prevention, and related services

• Analytics or crash reporting providers, if enabled

• Hosting, infrastructure, or support providers, if used

• Legal or regulatory authorities, if required by law or to protect rights and safety

• Successors in the event of a merger, acquisition, financing, or asset sale

Google Play requires developers to disclose in the Data safety section whether and how their apps collect and share user data. You remain responsible for making those disclosures accurately.

8. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including:

• operating the app

• maintaining security

• complying with legal obligations

• resolving disputes

• enforcing agreements

Retention periods may vary depending on:

• the type of data

• whether the data is stored locally on your device

• service provider policies

• legal requirements

Locally stored game data may remain on your device until you uninstall the app or clear app data.

9. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no method of storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children’s Privacy

Tile Pair Journey is a casual puzzle game and is not directed specifically to children under the age required by applicable law, unless explicitly stated otherwise in the Google Play listing.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children without appropriate legal basis where required. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to review and delete it where appropriate.

If you choose a target audience in Google Play that includes children or users of unknown age, additional Google Play Families and ads requirements may apply. Apps that target children must comply with the Families policy and use only eligible ad SDKs in that context.

11. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own by us or our third-party service providers. These countries may have data protection laws that differ from those in your jurisdiction.

By using the app, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in such countries, subject to applicable safeguards and legal requirements.

12. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights such as:

• the right to know what data is collected

• the right to request access to your data

• the right to request correction or deletion

• the right to object to certain processing

• the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

• the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

To make a request, contact us at: [your email address]

We may need to verify your request and may limit or deny requests where permitted by law.

13. Third-Party Services

The app may use third-party SDKs or services, including:

• Google Play services

• Google Play Console

• Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK

• Google User Messaging Platform (if implemented)

• other analytics, diagnostics, or support tools you choose to integrate

These third parties may have their own privacy policies and data practices. We encourage users to review those policies where relevant.

14. Legal Bases for Processing

Where applicable data protection laws require a legal basis, we may process information based on:

• your consent

• our legitimate interests in operating, securing, improving, and monetizing the app

• performance of a contract, such as providing app functionality

• compliance with legal obligations

15. Do Not Track

Because there is no single accepted standard for Do Not Track signals in mobile apps, the app may not respond to such signals unless required by applicable law.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect:

• changes in the app

• changes in legal requirements

• changes in advertising, analytics, or SDK integrations

• changes in our privacy practices

When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated Privacy Policy, to the extent permitted by law.

Recommended notes for your Play Console setup

Because you said this is for a game with ads, these points matter most:

Your privacy policy should be linked in Play Console and also ideally from inside the app. Google Play requires an accurate Data safety form, and Google’s AdMob guidance says the exact disclosures can vary by SDK version and implementation, so you should review the current Google Mobile Ads SDK disclosure page before submitting.

For your game, do not say “we collect no data” if you use AdMob. Google’s own documentation says the Mobile Ads SDK may collect data such as identifiers, diagnostics, and interaction data, and AdMob publishers must clearly disclose collection, sharing, and use.

If your target audience includes children, your ad and policy setup changes materially because Google Play Families rules apply.

I can turn this into a website-ready HTML privacy policy or a plain text version for Play Console/your site.
