Suguru / Privacy policy
Suguru Privacy Policy
Suguru is a puzzle game that works offline. This policy covers the Suguru app on Google Play, the Windows version, and the web version.
The short version
- Suguru has no account or sign-in, and we (the developer) receive no data about you.
- The Windows and web versions collect nothing at all.
- The Google Play versionshows ads from Google AdMob. Google may collect some device data to show and measure those ads. Buying "Remove ads" turns off all ads.
What stays on your device
Your games in progress, your chapter progress, your settings and your statistics (games solved, best times) are saved on your device only. They are never sent anywhere. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, they are deleted.
Ads (Google Play version only)
The Android app uses Google AdMob to show an ad after some solved puzzles, never during one. It also shows a video ad when you choose to watch one for a hint. To show and measure ads and prevent fraud, Google may collect:
- your device's advertising ID and app set ID
- your IP address, and the approximate location derived from it
- device information, such as the model, operating system and language
- how you interact with ads, such as views and taps
- diagnostic data, such as crash logs and ad loading times
This data goes directly to Google. We do not receive it, store it or combine it with anything. Google's use of it is covered by Google's own policy: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Your choices:
- In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, the app asks for your consent before it shows personalised ads. You can change that choice at any time under Settings → Privacy → Ad privacy choices.
- You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalised ads, in your Android settings (Settings → Privacy → Ads).
- Ads need an internet connection. With the device offline, no ads load and no ad data is sent.
"Remove ads" purchase (Google Play version only)
Google Play handles the purchase. We never see your name, email address or payment details. The app only stores a flag on your device that says you own "Remove ads", and it asks Google Play to confirm that, so that Restore purchase works after you reinstall.
Children
Suguru is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children. The Windows and web versions collect no data from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will publish the new version at this address with a new date.
