Welcome to 2048 Puzzle ("the App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our application. By using 2048 Puzzle, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect minimal information necessary to provide you with the best game experience:
- Game Data: Your score, high score, number of games played, and game preferences (dark/light mode, sound settings) are stored locally on your device using Android/iOS shared preferences. This data never leaves your device.
- No Personal Information: We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, location, or any other personally identifiable information.
- No Account Required: The App does not require you to create an account or log in.
3. How We Use Information
The data stored on your device is used solely to:
- Save and restore your game progress
- Track your high score across sessions
- Remember your display preferences
We do not use your data for advertising, analytics, or any commercial purpose.
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share any of your data with third parties. All game data remains on your device at all times. We have no ability to access the data stored on your device.
5. Third-Party Services
The App uses the following open-source libraries:
- Flutter SDK (Google) — UI framework
- shared_preferences — local data storage
- audioplayers — in-game sound effects
These libraries do not independently collect personal data when used in offline mode. Please review Flutter's and Google's respective privacy policies for more information.
6. Permissions
The App requests no special device permissions. It does not access your camera, microphone, contacts, location, or any other sensitive device feature.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is suitable for all ages, including children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. Since no personal data is collected at all, the App complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and similar regulations.
8. Data Security
All data is stored locally on your device using the platform's built-in secure storage mechanisms. We implement reasonable technical measures to protect the integrity of locally stored data.
9. Your Rights
You have full control over your data:
- Delete: Uninstalling the App from your device removes all locally stored game data.
- Reset: You can restart the game at any time, which resets your current session score.
