Privacy Policy for BearKnit: Color Puzzle

Last updated: October 11, 2025

BearKnit: Color Puzzle is developed and published by TrippleQ Games (“we”, “us”, “our”). We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how we handle data.

1) What Data We Collect

We do not collect information that directly identifies you (such as your name or email) from inside the game.
However, the game integrates third-party SDKs that may automatically process limited data:

• Device & app info (device model, OS version, language, country/region, app version).
  
  

• Usage & analytics (game session duration, levels/events, crash/performance logs).
  
  

• Advertising identifiers (e.g., Google Advertising ID/AAID) for ads measurement and fraud prevention.
  
  

• IP address & coarse location (derived from IP) for security, analytics, and ad geotargeting.
  
  

We do not intentionally collect sensitive categories of data.

2) Third-Party Services We Use

We use these providers; please review their policies for details of processing:

• Firebase (Google LLC) – Analytics/Crash/Performance
  https://policies.google.com/privacy
  
  

• AppLovin Corporation – Ads & attribution
  https://www.applovin.com/privacy/
  
  

• Adjust GmbH – Attribution & analytics
  https://www.adjust.com/privacy-policy/ • Opt-out: https://www.adjust.com/opt-out/
  
  

Google Ads personalized-ads settings: https://adssettings.google.com/

3) Why We Use Data

• Provide and operate the game (analytics, performance, crash fixing).
  
  

• Prevent fraud/abuse and keep the service secure.
  
  

• Show contextual or personalized advertising and measure ad performance.
  We do not sell your data for money. Some partners may use identifiers to deliver targeted ads—see Opt-Out below.
  
  

4) Legal Bases (EEA/UK)

Where GDPR/UK GDPR applies, processing is based on our legitimate interests (analytics, security, service improvement, non-essential ads) and/or your consent where partners require it for personalized ads.

5) Data Sharing & International Transfers

We share data only with the processors listed above and other service providers necessary to run the game (e.g., cloud hosting, crash analytics). These parties process data under our instructions and contractual safeguards. Data may be transferred internationally and protected using appropriate measures (e.g., SCCs).

6) Your Privacy Rights (Global)

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:

• Right of access – request a copy of personal data we/our processors hold about you.

We keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes above, then delete or anonymize it:

• Analytics & attribution events: typically up to 24 months (per partner default).
  
  

• Crash/performance logs: typically 90–180 days.
  
  

• Advertising identifiers: retained according to partner rotation rules or up to 24 months.
  
  

If you request deletion, we will instruct our processors to delete associated records (subject to legal/legitimate retention needs, e.g., fraud prevention).

Our game targets a general audience and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child provided data, contact us to remove it.
