Privacy policy

About this policy

This policy explains how the developer of I Love Color handles information in the Android game and on this privacy-policy website. You can contact the developer at flashdev95@gmail.com.

The game has no cloud game accounts or multiplayer features. You do not need to provide your name, email address or a profile to play. If you email us, we receive your email address and the information you choose to include, and use it to respond to your request.

On-device information

The game saves puzzle progress, saved boards, completed puzzles, move records, personal bests, hearts, diamonds, hint credits and preferences on your device. It also keeps local ad-limit and reward controls to manage how often ads and rewards are available. This information lets you resume play and keeps rewards consistent.

Daily reminders are off by default. If you enable them, your chosen local time and the last reminder delivery date stay on this device. Android notification permission is requested when needed. Reminders use an approximate daily alarm, are skipped while the game is open, and open the free daily puzzle when tapped. No reminder settings or delivery records are sent to a game server.

We do not send your board contents, wallet balances or gameplay history as custom analytics events or crash-report logs. We do not set a developer-assigned user ID for Analytics or Crashlytics.

Android backup is enabled. Depending on your device and Google backup settings, Android may back up app data and restore it later, including after reinstalling the app. This is an operating-system feature; it is not a game cloud account.

Optional analytics

Firebase Analytics collection is off by default. If you enable it in Settings, Google Analytics for Firebase may process automatically collected app events, an app-instance identifier, app and device information, operating-system details, language, and information used to derive general location. This helps us understand overall app use and improve the game.

We do not add custom puzzle, wallet or reward events. The SDK may collect its own automatic events and properties when you opt in. For Analytics, advertising storage, advertising user data and advertising personalization consent remain denied, including when analytics is enabled.

Optional crash reports

Firebase Crashlytics collection is off by default and has a separate choice in Settings. If you enable it, Crashlytics may send crash stack traces, crash or installation identifiers, timestamps, and app, operating-system and device diagnostics. We use these reports to find failures and improve stability.

We do not deliberately attach your saved boards, wallet balances, email address or a custom user ID to crash reports. Technical reports can still include details produced by the app, Android or the SDK.

Advertising and consent

The game integrates Google AdMob for optional rewarded ads and occasional ads after puzzle completion. Production builds use the developer’s AdMob app and ad units. Development builds use Google sample ads. Ad availability depends on connectivity, consent settings and Google’s app review and serving controls.

The advertising SDK and its partners may process device and advertising identifiers, IP address, approximate location inferred from the network, app and device information, ad views and interactions, and diagnostic information. This supports ad delivery, measurement, fraud prevention and, where permitted and consented to, personalization. The game does not request precise device location.

Google’s User Messaging Platform manages advertising consent where required. When available, open Settings → Privacy choices to review or change your choices, including personalized advertising. You may also have advertising controls in Android settings. Declining personalization may still allow contextual or limited ads under the applicable service settings.

Advertising choices are separate from Analytics and Crash reports. Turning those optional diagnostics off does not itself change advertising consent. Choosing to watch a rewarded ad is optional; network-based advertising may be unavailable while offline.

Services and sharing

Information processed by the services below is handled under their applicable terms and privacy policies. Google and its service providers may process data on servers outside your country. We do not operate a game-account database or sell your saved puzzle progress.

This privacy-policy website

This page is served by Firebase Hosting. Hosting infrastructure may process access logs, such as IP addresses, request times, requested URLs and browser information, to deliver and protect the site. See Firebase’s privacy information. The page uses a locally hosted font and has no added analytics scripts, advertising, tracking pixels or contact form.

Storage and retention

Local game data remains until you reset it, clear app storage or uninstall the game, subject to Android’s backup and restore behavior. Reset all progress deletes gameplay progress and balances while keeping preferences and ad-limit controls. Clearing the app’s storage in Android settings removes locally stored game information and preferences.

Uploaded analytics, crash reports, advertising information and Hosting logs follow the relevant service’s retention rules, our available service settings, and any legal or security needs. Different services retain different types of information for different periods. Disabling a feature or uninstalling the app does not automatically delete previously uploaded data. Backup copies may remain under your operating-system backup settings.

We retain support emails as needed to respond, resolve issues and meet applicable obligations.

Your choices and rights

• Analytics and crash reports: choose each separately in the game’s Settings. Both begin off and you can change your mind later. Turning Analytics off stops collection and resets local Analytics data immediately. Turning Crash reports off takes full effect the next time the game starts.
• Advertising: use Privacy choices when offered, and the advertising controls available in Android settings.
• Daily reminders: change the time or turn reminders off in the game’s Settings. You can also block notifications in Android settings. Android may delay reminders to save battery.
• Local data: use Reset all progress for gameplay data, or clear app storage in Android settings for local app data and preferences. Review Android backup settings if you also want to manage backups.
• Access or deletion requests: email flashdev95@gmail.com with your request. Please avoid sending passwords or unnecessary sensitive information.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of personal information, object to certain processing, withdraw consent, or complain to a relevant privacy authority. Withdrawing consent does not undo processing that already occurred.

Because the game has no accounts and we do not assign custom user IDs, we may be unable to identify a particular person’s SDK records from an email address alone. We will explain the available options and any limits rather than promise deletion of records we cannot identify. Google also provides controls described in its privacy policies.

Children’s privacy

I Love Color is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request personal information from children under 13. This audience statement does not mean the game verifies each player’s age.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided personal information through the app or by contacting us, please email flashdev95@gmail.com. We will review the concern and take appropriate steps, including seeking deletion where information can be identified and applicable requirements call for it.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards, including Android’s app storage protections and the security features of the services we use. Protecting your device and backup account also helps protect local game data. No storage or transmission method can guarantee complete security.

Policy changes

We may update this policy when the app or its services change. The date at the top shows the latest revision. When required, we will provide additional notice or request a new choice before materially changing how we handle information.
