Block GRUSH Privacy Policy
Block GRUSH is a mobile puzzle game made with Godot. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected, used, and shared when you play Block GRUSH.
This policy is written for the public release of Block GRUSH on iOS and may be updated before launch.
Summary
- Block GRUSH does not require an account.
- Block GRUSH does not ask for your name, email address, phone number, contacts, photos, camera, microphone, or precise location.
- Gameplay settings and progress are stored locally on your device.
- Block GRUSH uses Google AdMob for banner ads and optional rewarded ads.
- Block GRUSH requests non-personalized ads by default.
- Personalized ads are used only if you choose to allow them and, on iOS, Apple App Tracking Transparency permission is granted.
- Block GRUSH may use Apple Game Center for achievements and leaderboards.
Information Stored by the Game
Block GRUSH may store gameplay data locally on your device, including:
- Language preference
- Theme preference
- Accessibility settings
- Music, sound effect, and haptic settings
- Score and high score
- Game mode progress
- Achievement and leaderboard progress
- Ad/retry state needed for gameplay
This local gameplay data is used to run the game, remember your preferences, and provide gameplay features. It is not used by Block GRUSH to identify you directly.
Advertising
Block GRUSH uses Google AdMob to show ads.
The game may show:
- Banner ads during gameplay
- Rewarded ads when you choose to watch an ad for an in-game retry or second-chance reward
Rewarded ads are optional. You can choose not to watch them.
Google AdMob and its partners may collect or process information such as device identifiers, advertising identifiers, ad interaction data, approximate location derived from network information, diagnostics, and performance data to provide, limit, measure, and improve ads.
For more information about Google and AdMob privacy practices, see:
Non-Personalized and Personalized Ads
Block GRUSH requests non-personalized ads by default.
Non-personalized ads may still use limited information, such as basic device data, contextual information, coarse location, and frequency capping, but they are not selected based on a profile of your interests.
If you choose to allow personalized ads, Block GRUSH may request permission to use app activity for tracking. On iOS, this uses Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt. Personalized ads are enabled only if permission is granted.
If you decline, dismiss the prompt, or if iOS does not authorize tracking, Block GRUSH continues to request non-personalized ads.
You can manage App Tracking Transparency permissions later in iOS Settings.
For Apple App Tracking Transparency information, see Apple’s documentation.
Consent Management
In regions where advertising consent is required, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Block GRUSH uses Google’s User Messaging Platform or another Google-certified consent flow to request and manage ad consent before requesting ads where required.
If privacy options are available in your region, you can reopen them from the main menu.
Apple Game Center
Block GRUSH may use Apple Game Center for achievements and leaderboards.
If you use Game Center, Apple may process your Game Center player identity, scores, achievements, leaderboard data, and related gameplay progress. Game Center is provided by Apple and is controlled through your Apple account and device settings.
Apple’s privacy policy is available at https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.
Children
Block GRUSH is designed as a general-audience puzzle game and is not directed specifically to children.
Block GRUSH does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the game, contact us so we can review the issue.
Data Sharing
Block GRUSH does not sell your personal information.
Data may be processed by third-party services used by the game, including:
- Google AdMob, for ads and ad measurement
- Google User Messaging Platform, for advertising consent management
- Apple Game Center, for achievements and leaderboards
- Apple App Store and iOS system services, for app distribution, diagnostics, and platform functionality
These services process data according to their own privacy policies and platform rules.
Your Choices
You can:
- Choose whether to watch optional rewarded ads
- Keep using non-personalized ads if you do not allow personalized ads
- Manage ad consent choices where Google’s privacy options are available
- Manage App Tracking Transparency permissions in iOS Settings
- Disable music, sound effects, and haptic feedback in the game settings
- Manage Game Center from your Apple device settings
Data Retention
Local gameplay data remains on your device unless you delete the app or reset the relevant game data.
Data processed by Google AdMob, Apple Game Center, or other platform services is retained according to those providers’ policies.
Security
Block GRUSH uses platform-provided services and third-party SDKs to provide ads, consent management, and Game Center features. No method of storage or transmission is perfectly secure, but we aim to use standard platform practices and only collect or process data needed for the game’s features.
International Availability
Block GRUSH may be available globally. Privacy rights and available consent controls may differ depending on your country or region. Where required, the game will show consent or privacy options before requesting ads.
