Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Anti-2048 (“we”, “us”, or “our”). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in connection with your use of the Anti-2048 mobile game (“App”). We are committed to transparency regarding how data is processed and shared through third-party services.

2. Information Collection and Sharing

2.1) No Direct Data Collection

Anti-2048 does not collect or share any personal user data such as your name, email address, or phone number. The App does not require account creation, a user ID, or a password to play, and the core game is fully playable offline.

2.2) Shared Data (Device Identifiers)

To support the App's free, ad-supported features, we partner with third-party advertising services (Google AdMob). As declared in our Google Play Data Safety section, the following data is shared with these parties:

• Device or other IDs: Identifiers like the Android Advertising ID (AAID) are shared for the purpose of Advertising or marketing. These ads include optional rewarded ads (for example, to undo a loss or extend a timed game), interstitial ads between rounds, and native ads.

All data shared is encrypted in transit to ensure security during the sharing process.

2.3) Advertising Consent (EEA, UK & Switzerland)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we present a Google-certified consent choice (via the Google User Messaging Platform) before any ads are loaded. You may grant or decline consent for personalized advertising, and you can update your choice later from within the App.

2.4) Google Play Games Services (Optional)

Anti-2048 offers optional integration with Google Play Games Services for leaderboards. If you choose to sign in, your gameplay results (such as your fewest-moves scores and total tiles annihilated) are submitted to public leaderboards and are processed by Google under Google's Privacy Policy. This feature is entirely optional—the game is fully playable without signing in, and you may sign out at any time.

3. How Information is Used

The device identifiers shared with third parties are used solely to deliver relevant advertisements and measure their performance. If you opt in to Google Play Games Services, your scores are used only to rank you on the leaderboards. We do not use this data for any other internal purpose.

4. Data Storage, Deletion and Security

Because Anti-2048 does not collect personal data or maintain its own user accounts, we do not store your information on our servers. Your data is handled as follows:

• Local Game History: Your game records (such as moves, outcomes, tiles annihilated, and timestamps) and your theme preference are stored locally on your device. You can clear your history from within the App at any time, and uninstalling the App will permanently delete this data.
• Leaderboard Scores: If you sign in to Google Play Games Services, your submitted scores are managed by Google. You can manage or delete this data through the Google Play Games app.
• Security: We ensure that any third-party data transmission (such as sharing Device IDs for ads or submitting scores) is encrypted in transit using industry-standard protocols.

5. Children's Privacy

Anti-2048 is not designed for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly facilitate the collection of personal information from children. If you believe such data has been shared, please contact us immediately.

6. Your Controls

You have full control over the optional features that involve third-party sharing:

• Ad Personalization: You can opt-out of personalized ads in your Android device settings (Settings → Google → Ads), or update your consent choice from within the App where applicable.
• Google Play Games: Signing in is optional. You can sign out at any time and manage your Play Games data through the Google Play Games app.
• Local Data: You can clear your saved game history from within the App at any time.

2.1) No Direct Data Collection

Spillway does not collect or share any personal user data such as your name, email address, or phone number. The App does not require account creation, a user ID, or a password to play, and the core game is fully playable offline.

2.2) Shared Data (Device Identifiers)

• Device or other IDs: Identifiers like the Android Advertising ID (AAID) are shared for the purpose of Advertising or marketing.

All data shared is encrypted in transit to ensure security during the sharing process.

2.3) Advertising Consent (EEA, UK & Switzerland)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we present a Google-certified consent choice (via the Google User Messaging Platform) before any ads are loaded. No ads are requested until this consent flow has completed, and you may grant or decline consent for personalized advertising. Outside these regions, where a consent form is not legally required, ads load without one. In all cases you can review or reset ad personalization at any time from your Android device settings (Settings → Google → Ads).

2.4) Google Play Games Services (Optional)

Spillway offers optional integration with Google Play Games Services for leaderboards and achievements. If you choose to sign in, your gameplay results (such as your daily solve times, longest streak, total puzzles solved, and longest chain) are submitted to public leaderboards and are processed by Google under Google's Privacy Policy. This feature is entirely optional—the game is fully playable without signing in, and you may sign out at any time.

2.5) Reminders & Notifications (Optional, On-Device)

Spillway can send optional local reminders—for example, that today's daily puzzle is waiting, that a streak is about to expire, or that your lives have refilled. These notifications are generated and scheduled entirely on your device and no data is transmitted to deliver them. You are asked for the notification permission only after your first daily win, and you can decline it or turn reminders off at any time.

3. How Information is Used
