1. Information We Collect

We collect and store no personal information ourselves. There is no sign-up, no login, and no account of any kind. The app does include an advertising SDK (Unity Ads), which processes the data below to serve ads (see section 3).

• Advertising identifier (GAID), IP address and device information — processed by Unity Ads for ad delivery and fraud prevention.
• There is no separate analytics or attribution SDK. The ad partners in section 3 collect SDK diagnostic and crash information for their own ad delivery.
• Anonymous usage events — the app sends a small, fixed set of anonymous events to a server we operate (first launch, whether the purchase screen was shown, purchase started / completed / restored, whether an optional watch-an-ad-for-a-hint offer was shown or tapped, and whether the app was opened again on day 1 / day 7). These events carry only a random install identifier generated by the app — no advertising ID, no device identifier, no name, and none of your content. We use them solely to understand which features are used. Raw events are deleted within 3 months and kept only as aggregate counts.
• Ad check before ads start — before turning ads on, the app sends our server one request containing only the app's name, so that automated test devices (such as Google Play pre-launch testing) do not load real ads. The server uses the connection's IP address only for that check and does not store it; it keeps only a daily count per app.
• Feedback you choose to send — only if you use “Tell us anything” in the app, we receive the category you picked, the text you typed (up to 1,000 characters), the app version, your device language, the screen or level you were on, and a random install identifier generated by the app. There is no name, email, account or advertising ID field, and email addresses or phone numbers typed into the message are masked before it is stored. Your IP address is not stored. We use feedback only to fix bugs and improve the game; it is not shared with third parties or used for advertising. Sending feedback is optional. Messages are kept on our server (Cloudflare) and deleted within 12 months.

iPhone & iPad (App Store) version

The iOS version contains no advertising SDK and does not request or use any advertising identifier (IDFA). Coloring progress stays on your device. It sends only five anonymous purchase-screen events to our server: purchase screen shown (and from which screen), purchase started, completed, cancelled, or failed (with a technical reason code). Each event carries only a random install identifier generated by the app, an app tag, the event name and a timestamp — never your artwork, progress, name, e-mail or device identifiers. Raw events are kept for up to 3 months, then only aggregate counts remain. The ad-related items above apply to the Android version only.

2. How Information Is Used

Data	Purpose	Stored
Coloring progress, completed art, daily streak	Game progress / statistics	Locally on your device
Advertising identifier (GAID)	Ad serving, measurement and fraud prevention via Unity LevelPlay mediation	Ad partner servers (see the partner table)

Data retention

• On your device (coloring progress, completed art, daily streak, settings and whether you bought All Access) — kept until you clear the app's data or uninstall the app. Uninstalling deletes all of it. We have no copy.
• Anonymous usage events (Android and iOS versions) — stored on our server for up to 3 months, then deleted; only aggregate counts with no install identifier are kept after that.
• Ad check request (Android version) — the connection's IP address is used only for the check and is not stored; we keep only a daily count per app with no identifier, and delete those counts after 3 months.
• Feedback (Android version) — if you send feedback from inside the app, your message (with anything that looks like an e-mail address or phone number masked), its category, the app version, language, the screen or level you were on and the random install identifier are stored on our server for up to 12 months, then deleted.
• Advertising partners (Android version only — Unity LevelPlay / Unity Ads and the mediation partners listed above) — data their SDKs collect is retained by those providers under their own privacy policies linked above; we do not receive or keep it. Your ad-consent choice is stored on your device.
• Purchases — payment records are kept by Google Play or Apple (App Store) under their own retention rules; we store no payment details.
• We keep no other user data.

3. Data Storage & Security

• All game data (progress, streaks) is stored only in local storage on your device.
• The app does not upload your saved progress to our servers. All patterns are bundled — the app works offline. What the app does send to our server is listed in section 1: anonymous usage events, the ad check request and — only if you choose to send it — your feedback.
• Network requests go to Unity LevelPlay and the ad partners listed below in order to display ads.

Ad mediation partners — ads are selected through Unity LevelPlay mediation, which runs a real-time auction among the networks below. Each network's SDK is included in the app and, when it takes part in an auction, may process the advertising identifier (GAID), IP address (used to estimate an approximate region), device information, ad-interaction data and SDK diagnostic/crash information for ad delivery, measurement and fraud prevention. Each partner's handling is covered by its own policy:

4. Third-Party Services

Google Play Billing — in-app purchases are processed by Google, and the app only checks whether you own an item. We never see your payment details. Google's handling is covered by the Google Privacy Policy.

Unity Ads (Unity Technologies) — to serve rewarded ads, it collects and uses the advertising identifier (GAID), IP address, device information (model, OS version, language, etc.) and ad-interaction data, which may be passed to advertising partners during ad bidding. Unity's handling is covered by the Unity Privacy Policy, and you can opt out of personalized ads via the information icon shown on ads.

Overseas Transfer of Personal Data

Data listed in section 3 may be processed on Unity Technologies servers abroad (e.g. the United States) as part of ad delivery. The anonymous usage events in section 1 are processed on Cloudflare infrastructure, which may be located abroad; they contain no personal data.

5. Advertising

• This app shows rewarded ads only — they play only when you tap to unlock one locked picture. There are no interstitial or banner ads.
• Buying All Access removes the rewarded-ad offer.
• You can reset or delete your advertising ID at any time in your device settings.
• Europe (EEA), the UK and Switzerland — before any advertising SDK starts, we ask for your consent through the InMobi Choice consent tool (IAB TCF v2.2). If you decline, or close the dialog without finishing it, no advertising SDK is initialised. Your choice is stored on your device and you can reopen it at any time under Settings → Privacy choices to change or withdraw it.

6. Children

This app targets a general audience and is not primarily designed for children under 13.

7. Your Rights

• Ad tracking: you can reset or limit your advertising identifier in device settings
• Data deletion: deleting the app removes all local data

8. Artwork Attribution

Pixel patterns in this app are derived from Twemoji graphics (© Twitter, Inc and other contributors), licensed under CC-BY 4.0. This is a copyright notice unrelated to personal data.
