Apps Privacy Policy

1. Information used by our apps

You can play our current games without creating a ScriptEvolve account. They keep game saves and preferences on your device so you can resume a puzzle, view your progress, and keep your chosen settings. The types of records stored are described under Saved progress and local profiles.

Some features use an internet connection or a service provided by another company. A connected game service may share your player ID and display name with the app and receive scores or achievement progress. Advertising services may process device identifiers, network information, interactions, and diagnostics. These features are described below; they are not enabled in every app.

When you contact us, we receive what you send, such as your name, email address, message, or screenshots. Please include only what we need to help you and never send account passwords. Contacting support does not give us access to your device or automatically upload your game saves.

2. How we use information

Game data is used to save your place, calculate progress and rewards, and apply your preferences. Connected services support the features you use, such as achievements, rankings, or optional ad rewards. We use support messages to respond to questions, investigate problems, and handle privacy requests.

Our apps may also check for updates or connect to a website when you open a link. The receiving service can see your IP address and ordinary request information needed to deliver the connection. We may use information we hold to protect our services, prevent abuse, or meet legal obligations.

Where applicable law requires a legal basis, we process information as necessary to provide requested services, for legitimate interests such as responding to support requests and maintaining security, to meet legal obligations, or with consent where required. Reading this policy or agreeing to the Terms of Use does not itself give consent to optional data processing.

3. Saved progress and local profiles

Our games store progress and preferences on your device so you can continue playing. These records can include unfinished puzzles, entered numbers or moves, notes, daily challenges, levels, play time, mistakes, hints, hearts, achievements, rewards, and statistics. The records used depend on the game.

Where a local profile is available, it may contain a display name and a connected game-service player ID. Profiles retained from earlier app versions may also contain a gender preference. That preference is stored locally and is not submitted to game services by our current integrations.

We do not currently provide a ScriptEvolve cloud backup or transfer service for saved puzzles and detailed history. Device backups, where available, are managed by your operating system and backup provider. They are separate from in-game achievements and leaderboards.

4. Connected game services

Where an app supports Google Play Games, it may connect automatically according to your Google sign-in settings. When connected, the app receives your player ID and display name and can submit achievement progress and leaderboard scores, such as wins and completed levels. We do not receive your Google password.

Your game-service profile and records may be visible to others according to the provider’s visibility settings. You can manage automatic sign-in and profile visibility through Google Play Games. These controls are separate from the preferences stored in the app.

Game-service connections are not included in every app. Our current integrations do not use Google Play Games to back up puzzle boards or detailed local history, and Apple Game Center is not currently enabled. Core puzzle play does not require a ScriptEvolve account.

5. Advertising and rewards

Where rewarded ads are available, you may choose to watch an ad in exchange for the reward shown in the game. Ads need an internet connection. You can play without choosing a rewarded ad, and availability may differ between apps and versions.

Our current rewarded-ad implementation uses Google AdMob test ads and requests non-personalized ads. Some production versions disable rewarded ads. Neither a test ad nor a non-personalized ad means that no information is processed. A bundled advertising SDK may also have data-handling behavior independent of whether a rewarded ad is shown.

Google’s Mobile Ads SDK can process IP addresses, device or account identifiers, app interactions, and diagnostics to deliver and measure advertising and prevent fraud. An IP address can indicate approximate location. You can manage available advertising controls through your device settings. We will update disclosures and provide any required consent choices before introducing changed advertising practices.

6. Update checks and diagnostics

Where an app checks for updates, it requests a public configuration file from scriptevolve.com and compares version information locally. That request does not include your profile, saved puzzles, or detailed playing history. The website and its infrastructure can receive your IP address and ordinary request information needed to deliver and protect the service.

We have not added a separate app analytics or crash-reporting service to our current games. Third-party services can still process their own analytics and diagnostics. Google Play Games, for example, processes information to operate and improve its game services.

7. Sharing information and service providers

Google Play Games processes game-service information, analytics, and diagnostics under Google’s policies. You can manage automatic sign-in and profile visibility in Google Play Games. Disconnecting a service or clearing local data does not automatically remove records already held by that provider.

Our website hosting and contact-form providers help us deliver update information and respond to messages. They may process requests and support information for those services. We do not sell your locally stored game saves. Information we hold may also be disclosed where required by law or necessary to protect legal rights.

Service providers may process information outside your country. Their privacy policies explain their practices and controls. Where applicable, transfers of information under our control must use safeguards required by law. Before introducing new advertising or other data uses, we will update the relevant disclosures and obtain consent where required.

8. Permissions and device settings

The core gameplay in the apps covered here does not require contacts, camera, microphone, photos, or precise device location. Network access supports online features, ads where available, and external links. Sound, music, and vibration can be controlled through the game settings.

You can manage available advertising and privacy controls through your device and service-provider settings. Opening a store page or another website takes you to a service with its own privacy practices.

9. How long information is kept

Local saves remain on your device until they are reset, deleted, removed with app data, or replaced through normal play. We cannot recover a save that exists only on your device. An operating-system backup may retain a copy independently of the game; manage those copies through the backup provider.

We keep support correspondence for as long as needed to address the request and meet related legal obligations. Website infrastructure records and information held by Google or Apple are subject to the relevant service’s retention policies. We do not set those providers’ retention periods.

We use appropriate safeguards for information under our control. The update connection uses HTTPS, and device saves are held in app storage. Keep your device and connected accounts secure. No storage or transmission method can be guaranteed completely secure.

10. Deleting game data and support information

To remove local game data, open the app’s Settings or Me screen and choose Delete Account, Delete account, or Delete data from this device, depending on the controls shown. Read the confirmation and confirm deletion. In apps with a second confirmation screen, choose Delete data to finish. These controls clear or reset local progress; they do not mean you have a separate ScriptEvolve online account.

Deletion removes or resets the locally saved profile, puzzles, history, statistics, preferences, rewards, and game-service association, where present. It cannot be undone through a ScriptEvolve cloud backup. If the app reports a failure, retry or clear its storage through your device settings.

Local deletion does not delete your Google or Apple account, sign you out of those accounts, or erase achievements and scores already held by a connected service. To remove records submitted to Google Play Games, follow Google’s instructions for deleting data for an individual game. Automatic sign-in may reconnect the app later unless you change your provider settings.

Repeat local deletion on every device where you have used the app. If you cannot open it, use the device’s app-storage controls or uninstall the app and remove its data. Manage separate backups through Google, Apple, or your device provider. We cannot remotely erase information stored only on your device.

To request deletion of support information you sent us, or to ask for help, use our contact form. Choose Product question or support and include the app name and “data deletion” in your message. Use the email address associated with your earlier request where possible. We may ask for information reasonably needed to verify the request; we will not ask for your game-service password.

11. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of personal information we hold, restrict or object to processing, and withdraw consent where it is the basis for processing. Withdrawing consent does not change the lawfulness of earlier processing. You may also have the right to complain to a data-protection authority.

Contact us to exercise rights relating to information held by ScriptEvolve. We will explain if the information exists only on your device or must be managed through a provider. Mandatory rights under applicable law continue to apply.

12. Age Limit

Our apps covered by this policy are intended for people aged 16 and older and are not directed to children under 16. Our current games do not ask for a date of birth or verify age. If you are 16 or older but cannot independently agree to services under local law, you need a parent or guardian’s agreement and any consent required by that law.

If you believe someone under 16 has sent personal information to ScriptEvolve, contact us so we can investigate and address information we hold. Local saves and provider-held records can be managed using the deletion instructions above.

13. Changes to this policy

We will revise this policy when our apps or data practices change and update the revision date. Where required, we will give notice of material changes and request consent separately. New apps or features will be described here before this policy is used to cover different practices.
