This Privacy Policy explains how Desert Dune Blocks: Puzzle (“the App,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you download, install, or play our desert-themed block puzzle game on iOS devices. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
1. Information We Collect
Desert Dune Blocks: Puzzle is designed to be played without creating an account. We do not require your name, email address, or other personal identifiers to play.
We may process the following types of information:
- Gameplay data stored on your device: high scores, game progress, action charges, audio and vibration preferences, and remove-ads purchase status. This information is saved locally on your device using Apple’s standard storage (UserDefaults).
- Advertising data: when ads are enabled, Google AdMob may collect device identifiers, IP address, ad interaction data, and similar technical information to deliver and measure advertisements. Please review Google’s Privacy Policy for details.
- Purchase data: if you buy the optional “Remove Ads” in-app purchase, payment processing is handled entirely by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive or store your payment card details.
- Technical data: basic device and app performance information may be collected by Apple or third-party SDKs as part of normal mobile app operation.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Provide core gameplay, including saving scores and settings on your device.
- Display advertisements (banner, interstitial, rewarded, and app open ads) when ads are enabled.
- Offer optional rewarded ads that let you earn in-game action charges.
- Process and validate in-app purchases such as Remove Ads through Apple StoreKit.
- Improve stability, performance, and player experience.
3. Third-Party Services
The App uses third-party services that may collect information according to their own policies:
- Google AdMob — advertising. Google Privacy Policy
- Apple App Store / StoreKit — in-app purchases and app distribution. Apple Privacy Policy
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Advertising and Your Choices
The App may show ads during gameplay, after games end, when the app opens, and when you choose to watch a rewarded ad for bonus charges. You can purchase the optional Remove Ads feature to disable advertisements.
You can also limit ad tracking on iOS by going to Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking and adjusting your preferences, or via Settings > Privacy & Security > Apple Advertising.
5. Data Retention
Gameplay preferences and scores stored on your device remain on your device until you delete the App or reset app data. Advertising partners may retain data according to their own retention schedules.
6. Children’s Privacy
Desert Dune Blocks: Puzzle is a casual puzzle game intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the App, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps to address the request.
7. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information processed by the App. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure. Most game data is stored locally on your device and is protected by your device’s operating system security.
8. International Users
The App may be used in different countries. Third-party services such as Google and Apple may process data in locations outside your home country. By using the App, you understand that information may be transferred and processed internationally.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Effective date” at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after changes become effective means you accept the updated policy.
