Privacy Policy

1. Game progress and features

Ball Sort stores game progress and settings locally on your phone to preserve your progress and preferences. We do not upload this saved progress to our own servers or provide a game cloud-save service.

The Game does not offer player accounts, login, online leaderboards, multiplayer, or in-app purchases. Advertising-related data described below is handled separately from locally saved progress.

2. Google AdMob advertising

Ball Sort displays ads using Google AdMob. Google's advertising software automatically collects and shares information for advertising, measurement and analytics, and fraud prevention. The information can include:

• IP address, which can be used to estimate general location.
• App and ad interactions, such as app launches, taps, and video views.
• Diagnostics about app and advertising software performance.
• Device identifiers, including Android advertising ID and app set ID, and identifiers related to signed-in accounts where applicable.

The information handled can vary with device settings and advertising configuration. Ball Sort does not use AdMob mediation to integrate additional advertising networks.

Google's handling of this information is explained in its Privacy Policy and advertising privacy information.

3. Information you send to us

If you contact us by email, we receive your email address, the content of your message, and any attachments you choose to send. We use this information to answer your enquiry, investigate reported issues, and respond to privacy requests.

Please send only the information needed for your request. Our contact mailbox is provided through Gmail, a Google service.

4. Sharing and international processing

Google receives information through AdMob and processes email sent to our Gmail address. We do not provide locally saved game progress to advertisers.

We may disclose information under our control when required by law or when necessary to respond to lawful requests, resolve disputes, or protect against fraud and security threats.

Google operates internationally. Information handled by its services may be processed outside your country. Google's Privacy Policy describes its processing locations and safeguards for international transfers.

5. Retention and deletion

Local game data. Progress and settings remain in the Game's local storage until that storage is cleared or the app is removed. You can clear the Game's storage through your phone's app settings; this resets locally saved progress. Any device-level backup or restore is governed by your phone's operating-system settings.

Support correspondence. We retain support messages only for as long as needed to resolve the request and handle necessary follow-up. After that, we delete them unless continued retention is necessary for a legal obligation, an active dispute, or a security investigation. In those cases, we retain only the relevant information for as long as that purpose remains.

Advertising information. Google applies its own retention rules to information it holds. These depend on the type of information, its purpose, applicable settings, and legal requirements. See how Google retains data. Clearing game storage or uninstalling the Game does not itself delete information already held by Google.

To request deletion of support messages or other personal information you have sent to us, email 391venky@gmail.com. We may request information reasonably needed to verify the request. Where a retention exception applies, we will explain it.

6. Privacy choices and requests

Where supported, Android's advertising settings allow you to reset or delete the advertising ID. These controls affect identifier use but do not stop every form of advertising-related processing or automatically erase previously collected information.

The current version of Ball Sort does not include an in-game advertising consent or privacy-options screen. Reading this policy or using the Game does not, by itself, constitute consent to processing that requires consent.

Depending on the laws that apply to you, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or obtain a copy of your personal information, restrict or object to certain processing, or withdraw consent where processing relies on it. You may also have a right to complain to your local privacy regulator.

Contact 391venky@gmail.com for requests concerning information we control. For information controlled by Google, use the privacy controls and request options described in Google's Privacy Policy.

7. Security

We limit access to support correspondence to handling enquiries, privacy requests, and the purposes described in this policy. Google states that information collected by its mobile advertising software is encrypted during transmission using TLS. Local game data is stored within the app's device storage.

No storage or transmission method can provide an absolute security guarantee.

8. Children

Ball Sort is not designed for or directed to children. We do not knowingly solicit personal information from children through our support channel.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has sent personal information to us, contact 391venky@gmail.com. We will review the request and delete information under our control where appropriate.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the Game or its information practices change. The revised policy will appear on this page with an updated date. Where required, we will provide additional notice before a material change takes effect.
